There is an effort by manufacturers of new electric or hydrogen vehicles tolocate filling stations where there is a concentration of consumers such asnear important roads and highways. The first challenge with these locations
is that the consumer does not want to take the time to sit and wait while thevehicle is recharged, and the second challenge is that filling stations are notavailable in most locations. Ideal places for recharge are parking lots andgarages where recharge can occur. Vehicles may be charged at homes,commercial and residential use buildings, malls, grocery stores, etc.; wherethe consumer can recharge the batteries or fuel cells during the time he isaway from it for extended periods and taking the time to recharge during
those periods does not become an inconvenience.
***START***My Airflow Power Generating Apparatus for use in electric and hydrogentechnology vehicles provides an external continuous feed of DC energy whilethe vehicle is in forward motion. There is no previous art addressing thechallenges this invention resolves such as reducing or eliminating the use ofadded fuels to compensate for and to recharge batteries or fuel cells.

There is neither perpetual motion without an external source of energy, nor
there is a way to get more energy from less, therefore for an electric orhydrogen technology vehicle to move; the batteries and fuel cells need to be
sufficiently charged to maintain the level required for a vehicle to travel a
distance satisfactory to the consumer needs. Currently batteries and fuelcells cannot keep enough charge to support travel distance without having to
be recharged frequently. The Chevy Volt one of GM's most celebrated electricvehicle can travel up to 400 miles, however only 53 miles of these miles arewith battery power alone, which makes the Volt not technically and electricvehicle but rather a standard vehicle with an electric accessory to extend its
travel distance.
A travelling vehicle has many forces acting against it such as wind,environmental friction, road friction and even the resistance of the vehicle's
own running parts. These conditions have made it impossible to run anyvehicle without recharging batteries or fuel cells with energy coming fromexternal sources. The Airflow Power Generating Apparatus when used inElectric and Hydrogen Technology Vehicles, provides de needed externalenergy for recharge by using air flowing through its turbines which convert
airflow to kinetic energy and further electrical energy that is converted into
electrical DC current through generators driven by the turbines. Air flow
provides an infinite and constant source of power to charge batteries and fuelcells while the vehicle is in forward motion.

[0079] FIG. 1 illustrates a collapsible container in an assembled position
according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 1, thecollapsible container (100) includes a base (10), a first end panel (1), a firstside panel (2), a second side panel (3), and a second end panel (4). The firstend panel (1) is hingedly attached to the base (10) via a hinge mechanism

( e.g., a set of panel hinges (SA) that attach directly to the base (10) at thebottom edge of the first end panel (1)). The second end panel (4) is also
hingedly attached to the base (10) via a hinge mechanism (not shown). The
first side panel (2) is hingedly attached to the base (10) via a hingemechanism (e.g., bottom hinge (SC) that is positioned about three inches
above the base (10)). The first side panel (2) further includes a hingemechanism (e.g., hinge (8B)) disposed along a mid-point of the first sidepanel (2), which allows for the first side panel (2) to fold in-half (i.e., the firstside panel (2) is a bi-folding panel). Similar to the first side panel (2), thesecond side panel (3) is hingedly attached to the base (10) via a hingemechanism (not shown). The second side panel (3) also includes a hingemechanism (not shown) disposed along a mid-point of the second side panel(3), which allows for the second side panel (3) to fold in-half (i.e., the second.
side panel (3) is also a hi-folding panel).

1. An apparatus for treating disorders of the knee comprising a prosthesis(600) configured to be mounted to the femur proximate the knee joint inengagement with target tissues for intervention, the target tissues
comprising at least one laterally positioned connective tissue of the knee,
said prosthesis comprising:a fixation portion (612) configured to mate with and be mounted to asurface of the femur at a fixation site on a lateral part of the femur,
a first displacement portion (614) medially and anteriorly positioned
with respect to the fixation portion (612) and configured and dimensioned todisplace the quadriceps-femoris tendon,a second displacement portion (624) distally positioned with respect
to the fixation portion with a convex outer surface configured anddimensioned to engage and laterally displace the iliotibial band, anda spanning section (616) having a general Y-shape between thefixation portion and said displacement portions, with one arm of thespanning section extending at an angle medially and anteriorly to the firstdisplacement portion (614); and another arm of the spanning section
configured and dimensioned to extend laterally and distally from the fixation
portion to position the second displacement portion (624) with respect to theiliotibial band for lateral displacement thereof while avoiding select tissues
extending between the fixation site and the target tissues.
