20220050482 · 2022-02-17 · ·

A pressure control system for a liquid-cooled electronic component cooling device. A cooling device cools an electronic component through a refrigerant moving along a pipe. A radiator is mounted on one side of the cooling device to exchange heat with the refrigerant, and has a vent hole extending outwardly. A head has discharge holes communicating with a plurality of first hollows formed therein in an outer circumferential surface thereof with a driver hole provided in an upper surface thereof. A body is coupled to a bottom side of the head and has a second hollow communicating with the first hollows in a lengthwise direction. A pressure controller extends outward from a bottom of the body with an inner portion thereof communicating with the second hollow, and includes a coupler having threads on one side of an outer circumferential surface thereof to be screwed into the vent hole.

Balanced trim regulator

A balanced trim pressure regulator includes a valve body having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet connected by a fluid passageway. An orifice is disposed between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. A valve seat is disposed within the fluid passageway. A movable valve plug is disposed within the fluid passageway, the movable valve plug interacting with the valve seat to selectively open or close the fluid passageway. A cage is disposed in the fluid passageway, the cage surrounding the valve plug, and the cage including at least one a balancing passage that fluidly connects the fluid passageway with a balancing chamber.

A cooling system includes an inlet port and an outlet port to be coupled to one or more electronic devices, a main loop having a heat exchanger coupled to the inlet port and the outlet port, and a buffer loop coupled to the inlet port and the outlet port. The main loop having a heat exchanger to receive fluid from the inlet port, to extract heat generated by the electronic devices and carried by the fluid, and to return the fluid to the electronic devices via the outlet. In an embodiment, a cooling system includes a buffer loop, configured in parallel with the main loop, with a buffer unit to temporarily buffer at least a portion of the fluid, and a first pressure controllable valve, coupled to the main loop and the buffer loop, to selectively distribute at least a portion of the fluid to at least one of the main loop or the buffer loop based on a fluid pressure of the fluid. In an embodiment, a cooling system includes a bypass loop coupled between the first pressure controllable valve and the outlet port to operate as a direct bypass loop from the inlet port to the outlet port, bypassing the heat exchanger and the buffer unit. Pressure is measured and used for controlling those loops under different working scenarios.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PRECISE NAVIGATION OF AUTONOMOUS DEVICES

The safe operation and navigation of robots is an active research topic for many real-world applications, such as the automation of large industrial equipment. This technological field often requires heavy machines with arbitrary shapes to navigate very close to obstacles, a challenging and largely unsolved problem. To address this issue, a new planning architecture is developed that allows wheeled vehicles to navigate safely and without human supervision in cluttered environments. The inventive methods and systems disclosed herein belong to the Model Predictive Control (MPC) family of local planning algorithms. The technological features disclosed herein works in the space of two-dimensional (2D) occupancy grids and plans in motor command space using a black box forward model for state inference. Compared to the conventional methods and systems, the inventive methods and systems disclosed herein include several properties that make it scalable and applicable to a production environment. The inventive concepts disclosed herein are at least deterministic, computationally efficient, run in constant time and can be deployed in many common non-holonomic systems.
