Abstract: A distribution system is adapted for use with a mattress and a personal comfort system with an air conditioning system operable for outputting a conditioned air flow. The distribution system includes at least top and bottom layers of fabric material and a spacer structure disposed between the bottom and top layers. The spacer structure defines an internal volume within the distribution layer and is configured to enable the received conditioned air flow to flow therethrough. This flow of conditioned air has a cooling or heating effect on a body on the mattress. A system and method for controlling ventilation in a bed (mattress) includes an user-controlled air conditioning control system for generating and supplying a conditioned air flow to a distribution layer/system located on or near the mattress. The distribution layer/system includes a spacer structure surrounded by fabric material(s) and configured to receive the conditioned air flow and provide a cooling or heating effect to a body adjacent the mattress.

Abstract: An interior surface panel such as a ceiling tile is free of PVC materials and otherwise possesses desirable properties that make it suitable for installation in a variety of environments including schools, household and commercial kitchens and healthcare facilities. The panel can include a base mat and a facing material of a polyolefin or polyester polymer or copolymer bonded to the base mat. The facing material is resistant to ultraviolet light and possesses superior scrubbability. The PVC-free facing has a preferred thickness, opacity and surface roughness and a texture pattern that is non-directional and discontinuous. In an embodiment in which the PVC-free facing is white, it has a preferred light reflectance. The PVC-free facing is resistant to deformation under tension. In addition, the facing has low anisotropy; that is, the facing exhibits minimal differences in its physical properties in different directions. The facing also has good dimensional stability.

Abstract: A fastener driving apparatus includes a power source, a control circuit, a motor, a first cylinder, a first piston, a linear motion converter, a second cylinder, a second piston, an anvil, a retention element retaining a component of the apparatus, and at least one sensor. During a compression stroke, the first piston compresses gas in a first cylinder to a predetermined pressure. Compressed gas is communicated to the second cylinder and the retention force of the retention element is overcome, to release the retained component of the apparatus, thereby causing the second piston to move linearly and enabling the anvil to drive the fastener into the workpiece. During a return stroke of the first piston, a vacuum created in the first cylinder is communicated to the second cylinder, causing the second piston and the anvil to retract to their initial positions.

Abstract: This application relates to thiophene azo carboxylate dyes for use as hueing agents, laundry care compositions comprising such dyes that may serve as hueing agents, processes for making such dyes and laundry care compositions and methods of using the same. The aforementioned dyes contain a formally charged moiety and are generally comprised of at least two components: at least one chromophore component and at least one polymeric component. Suitable chromophore components generally fluoresce blue, red, violet, or purple color when exposed to ultraviolet light, or they may absorb light to reflect these same shades. Such dyes are advantageous in providing a hueing effect, for example, a whitening effect to fabrics, while not building up over time and causing undesirable blue discoloration to the treated fabrics. Such dyes are also generally stable to bleaching agents used in laundry care compositions.

Abstract: Le système générateur de puissance bleue comprend un dispositif électrolytique servant à obtenir de lhydrogène et de loxygène à partir de l'eau de mer. Il comprend également un système générateur de puissance servant à fournir l'énergie électrique au dispositif électrolytique et une installation servant à recombiner lhydrogène et loxygène afin de produire de leau douce propre. Plus précisément, la réaction électrolytique en mer profonde produit des gaz qui montent dans des réservoirs au niveau de la mer. Lappauvrissement de leau dans la chambre électrolytique mène à la création dune basse pression dans la chambre électrolytique. La pression de leau fabriquée requise pour la réaction électrolytique est utilisée pour entraîner une turbine et produire de l'énergie électrique. Une partie de l'énergie électrique produite est utilisée pour entraîner la réaction électrolytique. La quantité d'énergie électrique créée est en relation directe avec la profondeur à laquelle le système est exploité.
