We use a Kwik Kold Instant Ice Pack [I] which contains ammonium nitrate and water.

Firmly squeeze the inner pouch to release the water and mix it with the ammonium nitrate.

Since the cold pack reaches temperatures significantly lower than body tempera- ture.

Ammonium nitrate is a very strong oxidant in dry form and can initiate combustion in flammable materials.

This process absorbs heat from the materials present and causes the temper- ature of the system to drop.

This cooling effect from the dissolv- ing of ammonium nitrate in water is exploited in instant cold packs used in hospitals and elsewhere.

Imagine a cylindrical vessel that is fitted with a movable piston and contains car- bon dioxidc gas over its saturated water solution (Figure l2.l4).

The pressure portion 110B allows for the ability to increase or decrease the firmness of the temperature regulation layer 110 and thus the cooling platform 100 by the addition of gases such as oxygen.

Furthermore, the presence of the predefined distance from the top and bottom of the angled segment 120, essentially prevents the dispersion of the composition 944077. l 1 10A from the pressure the object exerts on the cooling platform 100.

They cut short their sunbathing sessions and seek relief from the heat in the shade, or even move inside and stop enjoying the outdoors altogether.

The cooling medium is preferably a conventional gel, such as a single phase change material (PCM), used for controlling the temperature of products.

In addition to being the perfect accessory for toting to the beach, pool, or suntanning booth, the cooling mattress can be used to relax sore and tired body parts or to soothe strained muscles.

The liner is formed from a sturdy, flexible material, such as plastic or vinyl, that can withstand contact with abrasive substances such as soil, rocks or sand and yet can conform to the shape of a body resting on the mattress.

Maze also reserves the right to rely upon treatises, published industry standards, and similar documents, regardless of whether they are identified in these Contentions, to demonstrate the knowledge of one of ordinary skill in the relevant art.

Invalidity Under 35 U.S.C. §§ 102 and 103 Local Patent Rule 2.3(b)(2): (2) a statement of whether each item of prior art allegedly anticipates each asserted claim or renders it obvious.

A person of ordinary skill would have been motivated in finding effective ways to cool objects and rely on other analogous art proposing solutions to the same problem.

Accordingly, Maze may rely upon any of the prior art references included in the Tables above and on other publications and expert testimony to provide context and to aid in understanding and interpreting specific citations.

Maze may also rely on uncited portions of the prior art references and the testimony of experts to support a conclusion of obviousness based on, for example, any of the KSR criteria.

Compounding this increase, per- sonal computers and related electronic appliances contain- ing processors (such will be all referred to as micro com- puters hereon) have continued to evolve into more lightweight and smaller-sized devices.

The main heat generating elements in portable computers, the circuitry and processing units, are typically packed close to the bottom-face in order to minimize the housing size.

Also known are external pads made of mere insula- tion material to place between the laptop and the user, exacerbating the problem of cooling the computer but offer- ing some relief from the heat for the user’s lap.

Because of the fact that liquid does not take a definite form but solid material does, the nature of the phase change process in this application calls for well-designed contain- ment both to control the PCM and to serve the purpose of heat dissipation.
