Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090193817METHOD FOR REFRIGERATING A THERMAL LOAD - The invention concerns a method for refrigerating one or more thermal loads which consists in providing a first CO2 source derived from a mechanical cold system, and in feeding one or more evaporators from said first source so as to cause the CO2 to evaporate thereby cooling said one or more thermal loads. The method is characterized in that it consists in providing a second CO2 source, consisting of a cryogenic storage of CO2, and in inputting CO2 from said second source, so that the flow rate of fluid feeding the evaporator(s) is a mixture of liquid CO2 derived from said first source and liquid CO2 derived from said second source.08-06-2009

20090318986Systems, Methods and Apparatus for Treating Cardiac Dysfunction with Neurostimulation - Methods, systems, and apparatus for the treatment of heart failure (both systolic and diastolic), hypertension, and arrhythmia in patients by stimulating one or more nerves, particularly peripheral nerves, using neurostimulation are described. The therapeutic treatment is accomplished by applying electrical signals to at least one or more nerves using cutaneous, subcutaneous, implantable, or catheter-based neurostimulation assemblies, alone or in combination with one or more additional therapy or stimulation devices associated with the patient's heart, and/or with one or more therapeutic drug infusions or therapies, such as immune modulation therapy (IMT).12-24-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100308189Latching System for Multiple Nodes of a Computer System - A method and system to support simultaneous unlatching from a rack of two or more adjacently mounted and vertically aligned hardware components. One interface bracket is secured to one vertical rail of the rack, and a second interface bracket is secured to a second vertical rail of the rack on an opposite side of the rack. A set of latches are provided in communication with each interface bracket, with the number of latches corresponding to the number of hardware components in communication with the interface bracket. Actuation of one of the latches releases fastening of at least one hardware components from the rack, and accommodates removal of the release component from the rack.12-09-2010
