A cartridge-based computing system includes a display stand that connects to a compute module cartridge including a first securing member, a second securing member, and a release member coupled to the second securing member. The display stand defines a securing aperture that engages the first securing member when the compute module cartridge is connected to the display stand, which causes the first securing member to engage a securing element on the display stand and move it into engagement with the second securing member to connect the compute module cartridge to the display stand. The securing element may then be engaged by the release member to move it out of engagement with the second securing member, and into engagement with the first securing member to cause the securing aperture to disengage the first securing member and disconnect the compute module cartridge from the display stand.

A cleaning module for cleaning bone stock used in surgical procedures. The cleaning module includes a shell. The shell defines a void space to receive the bone stock. A cutter is rotating mounted in the void space. A shaving tube, also able to rotate, is coaxially disposed about the cutter. The cutter and shaving tube have complementary edges. A drive assembly rotates the cutter and shaving tube at different speeds, at different times or in different directions relative to the cutter. As a result of the rotation of the cutter and shaving tube soft tissue adhering to the bone stock is cut away from the bone stock by the relative rotating of the cutting edges of the cutter and shaving tube.

A modular desktop computing system includes a display stand chassis having a display stand base, a display stand support member extending from the display stand base and including a display device mounting subsystem, and a display stand cover removeably coupled to the display stand support member to define a computing module housing between the display stand support member and the display stand cover. A display device is removeably mounted to the display device mounting subsystem. A computing module is located in the computing module housing. The computing module includes a computing module chassis removeably positioned in the computing module housing and housing: a processing system coupled to the display device, and a memory system coupled to the processing system. The memory system includes instructions that, when executed by the processing system, cause the processing system to provide for the display of images on the display device.

Configurable all-in-one modular desktop computing system

A power-availability-based power delivery configuration system includes a power scaling system that is coupled to a device and a power system. The power scaling system includes an adjustable power scaling circuit that is configured to convert power received from the power system from a first power level to a second power level. A power scaling controller is coupled to the device, the power system, and the power scaling circuit. The power scaling controller identifies a power amount available from the power system and, based on the power amount available from the power system, determines power delivery settings for the adjustable power scaling circuit and configures the adjustable power scaling circuit using the power delivery settings. The power scaling controller may also determine device settings for the device based on the power amount available from the power system and configure the device using the device settings.

An expansion module system includes a board having a plurality of expansion modules connectors mounted to the board. A shared expansion module coupling feature is provided on the board and includes a coupling member. A respective expansion module is connected to each of the plurality of expansion module connectors, and the coupling member engages each of the respective expansion modules to secure each of the respective expansion modules in their respective expansion module connectors. The shared expansion module coupling feature may includes a standoff that is mounted to the board immediately adjacent a single hole defined by the board, and the coupling member may be provided by a single screw that engages each of the respective expansion modules and at least one of: the shared expansion module coupling feature and the portion of the board that defines the hole.

A forced convection system includes a chassis defining a chassis housing and including an outer surface opposite the chassis housing. A forced convection device channel is defined by the chassis adjacent the outer surface and opposite the chassis housing. A heat dissipation structure extends from the chassis adjacent the outer surface, opposite the chassis housing, and adjacent the forced convection device channel. A first heat producing device is located in the chassis housing and engages the chassis immediately opposite the heat dissipation structure to allow the chassis and the heat dissipation structure to conduct heat generated by the first heat producing device. A forced convection device is located in the forced convection device channel, and produces a forced convective airflow past the heat dissipation structure to dissipate the heat generated by the first heat producing device and conducted by the chassis and the heat dissipation structure.

Disclosed here are inventive systems and methods for a powertrain of an electric vehicle (EV) having a continuously variable transmission (CVT) coupled to an electric drive motor, wherein a control system is configured to control the CVT and/or the drive motor to optimize various efficiencies associated with the EV and/or its subsystems. A control system is configured to operate the EV in an economy mode. Operating in said mode, the control system simultaneously manages the CVT and the drive motor to optimize the range of the EV. The control system can be configured to manage the current provided to the drive motor, as well as adjust a transmission speed ratio of the CVT. Other modes of operation are also possible. The control system can be configured to manage the power to the drive motor and adjust the transmission speed ratio of the CVT taking into account battery voltage, throttle position, and transmission speed ratio, for example.

An externally mounted component cooling system includes a chassis defining a chassis housing and including an outer surface that is located opposite the chassis from the chassis housing. An air inlet is defined by the chassis and extends through the chassis from the outer surface to the chassis housing. At least one external component mounting feature is included on the outer surface of the chassis adjacent the air inlet. An external component is coupled to the at least one external component mounting feature. A forced convection device is located in the chassis housing and is configured to generate an airflow through chassis housing. The generation of the airflow by the forced convection device draws air past the external component and through the air inlet to cool the external component.

Externally mounted component cooling system

A cooling system includes a chassis defining a housing and including a wall having an outer surface. A computing device is located in the housing. A heat transfer device located in the housing engages the computing device and the wall, providing for heat transfer from the computing device, through the heat transfer device, and through the wall to the outer surface to produce supplemental passive cooling of the computing device via the outer surface. A heat dissipation aperture is defined by the chassis, and a heat dissipation device located in the housing adjacent the heat dissipation aperture engages the heat transfer device, which provides for heat transfer from the heat transfer device to the heat dissipation device. A forced convection device located in the housing generates an airflow past the heat dissipation structure and through the heat dissipation aperture to enable primary active cooling of the computing device.
