Title: Bridgeless switchless pcie expansion
Inventor: WIECZOREK DAMIAN
IPC: G06F13/40
Filed: 2007-12-11
Abstract: A device, system and method adapted to expand a high speed data bus, such as a PCI Express (PCIe) bus, over a serial link with an expansion unit having a high speed data bus, such as a PCIe bus, without using a bridging or switching device. One primary advantage of not using a bridge or switch is that the expansion interface is completely transparent to the BIOS, processor, CPU, OS, or any other component(s) on the host motherboard be they hardware, firmware, or software. This invention does not require additional protocols such as TCP/IP, Serial ATA, Gigabit Ethernet, etc. There is also no implicit hardware or device driver latency resulting from a bridge or switch.

Abstract: L'invention concerne de multiples modes de réalisation d'un générateur d'hydrogène (10) qui mesure, transporte ou stocke une dose unique d'un composant de carburant visqueux depuis une première chambre de carburant (12) dans la zone de stockage (38) lorsque la pression d'hydrogène interne (44, 44') du générateur d'hydrogène est élevée et transporte cette dose unique dans un composant de carburant d'hydrure métallique dans une deuxième chambre de carburant (14) lorsque la pression interne est basse, de manière à ce que les composants de carburant de liquide visqueux et d'hydrure métallique réagissent ensemble pour générer plus d'hydrogène et redémarrer le cycle. Le composant de carburant visqueux peut être l'eau ou l'alcool, comme le méthanol, sous forme de gel ou de liquide, et le composant de carburant d'hydrure métallique peut être du borohydrure de sodium ou un autre hydrure métallique qui réagit chimiquement au carburant visqueux pour produire de l'hydrogène. Le composant de carburant d'hydrure métallique peut être sous forme solide ou visqueuse, par exemple, sous forme aqueuse.

Abstract: Embodiments of a key system for filters and their connecting heads/holders are shown. The filter cartridge and its holder each have a keyed surface, one being a protruding "key" and one being a recessed "lock". Cooperation of these keyed surfaces is required in order for the filter cartridge to be installed in the holder, so that mis-matched cartridges cannot be installed into the holder, for example, to prevent a particular type of cartridge from being placed in a filtration or other process where it would be inappropriate, or undesired. The keyed surfaces are selectively locate-able preferably at different circumferential locations on a perimeter of the filter and a corresponding location on a perimeter of the head/holder. The perimeter may be, for example, on an outer shoulder surface of a filter and an inner surface of a valve head, or on outer and inner surfaces of connectors that provide a liquid seal between the filter and the head/holder.
