Abstract: An air heating and heat recovery ventilation system comprise on or more solar panels (1, 1') for absorbing and collecting energy from the sun during daylight hours, an energy processing unit (50) for combining and distributing energy from different sources; a boiler (10) which is interlinked to the system via the energy processing unit (50), an air distribution system and air handling unit (105) which allows for heat to be distributed throughout a house via a network of conduits and a control means which provides a means for co-ordinating and controlling all the components and functions of the system. The solar panel (1) has a solar radiation transmitting cover (7) and a reflective base held in spaced apart relationship by side end members (1a, 1b), a solar radiation absorber (6) within the housing, inlet means enabling fluid to enter the absorber at one end of the housing, and outlet means enabling the fluid to exit from the absorber at an opposite end of the housing. The cover (7) is a sheet of glass, the underside of which has a "low E" coating. The cover (7) may also be spaced apart from the solar radiation absorber (6) and an air gap is provided between the cover (7) and absorber (6).

Abstract: A tubular stent is provided with a braided structure having a body portion and an end portion, where the end portion has a higher pitch angle than the body portion, thereby forming a locking ring. If desired, a second locking ring can be provided at a second end portion of the stent. The locking rings may each include an elevated locus of wires which forms a barb. The barb provides additional strength and sharpness to the locking ring when used to anchor the graft within a blood vessel. The stent is preferably coated or lined with a porous bio-compatible material to allow tissue ingrowth. A preferred method of manufacture comprises inserting a braid into a tube having a smaller diameter than the braid, with one or both of the end portions of the braid extending outside the tube, and precipitation hardening the braid in this configuration in order to form a stent having a body portion with a first pitch angle and one or two locking ring portions with a larger pitch angle.

Abstract: Each memory cell of an array has a single-electron transistor and a single-electron memory element. The single-electron transistor is driven by a charge stored in the memory element. When a read voltage is applied, a current flows through the single-electron transistor which is dependent on the stored charge, but the stored charge in not changed. When a write voltage is applied, the magnitude of which is greater than the read voltage, then the stored charge is changed. The memory cells of the array are each connected between first lines and transverse second lines of a memory cell configuration.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for controlling and adjusting the permeability of a cigarette wrapping paper. Permeability is controlled in the paper by adding different sized filler particles in different proportionate amounts. Permeability of the paper is altered without having to change the total amount of filler in the paper. By selectively controlling the permeability of the paper, various characteristics and properties of a cigarette made with the paper can be likewise modified as desired. In one embodiment of the present invention, the permeability of a cigarette wrapper can be automatically maintained or adjusted as the paper is being made. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A solid state laser source for surgical applications which produces short-pulse, mid-infrared radiation. Specifically, the laser preferably emits radiation near the absorption peak of water, with energy levels up to 20 mJ, pulse durations shorter than 50 ns and preferably shorter than 30 ns, with beam quality of less than 8 times the diffraction limit. The short pulses reduce unwanted thermal effects and changes in adjacent tissue to potentially sub-micron levels. The laser source produces pulse repetition rates in excess of 10 Hz when pumped by a flashlamp, but in a diode pumped embodiment, the repetition rate may exceed 30 Hz. Of particular interest is an erbium-doped YAG laser which is especially well suited to the needs of mid-infrared corneal ablation procedures for correcting refractive errors, when constructed according to principles disclosed by the invention.
