Abstract: A snow-gun for producing man-made snow from a combination of compressed air and water features a new nozzle configuration for discharging a mixture of water- particles and air into the surrounding atmosphere. Such nozzle is provided with an elliptically-shaped discharge port having a transverse cross-section that gradually expands in size in the direction in which the air and water particles are discharged from said nozzle. Preferably, the area of the elliptical port changes non-linearly through the front wall of the nozzle, whereby water particles exiting the gun through the nozzle port are less likely to collide with the side walls of the port or with each other before reaching the relatively cold ambient atmosphere.

Abstract: Compressor wheel (16) and techniques for manufacturing such a wheel are provided.  The wheel may include a hub (21) with a counterbore (36) internally treated to impart residual compressive stresses for enhanced endurance to stress-induced fatigue. The surface treatment allows extending the counterbore relatively closer to a plane (30) of typical maximum stress of the wheel. This design flexibility advantageously allows avoiding or reducing overhang of the compressor wheel, thereby improving rotor dynamics and reducing the axial length of the hub, and the overall foot print of the compressor wheel.

Abstract: This leg brace is comprised of durable plastic material (used in its structural columns) and cotton material (used in its thigh and calf strap) to permit for a safer, lighter, and more comfortable brace. The structural design of this brace makes it multifunctional such that it is able to support the function of the thigh and the leg muscles, the knee cartilage, the kneecap, the foot and the arch of the foot. The pressure from the person's body weight and that extending from the lower legs and the feet are transferred to the hinges of the brace that help in taking off the pressure from the injured joints and reduce approximately 25% of the pressure from the entire the knee cartilage. This will then allow persons with weak leg muscles to stand up with ease and or climb steps.  The thigh and the calf strap of this brace allow for the uniform and accurate distribution of the weight pressure exerting onto the thigh and calf muscles. The lower structure of the brace allows it to easily glide into the footwear and takes pressure off the ankle.

Abstract: A hydrocarbon desulfurization system includes a fluidized bed reactor (12), a fluidized bed regenerator (14), and a fluidized bed reducer (16). Fluidizalbe solid particles circulate through the raator (12), generator (14), and reducer (16) to thereby provide for substantially continuous desulfurization of a hydrocarbon containing fluid stream and substantially continuous regeneration of the solid particles. A novel transport system is employed for transporting the solid particles between the reactor (12), the regenerator (14), and the reducer (16). The transport system uses close-coupled vessels and gravity flow between various vessels to minimize equipment cost and particle attrition.

Title: Split engagement flange for soap dispenser pump piston
Inventor: OPHARDT HEINER
IPC: B67D3/00
Filed: 2007-06-22
Granted: 2015-12-29
Abstract: A liquid soap dispenser is disclosed having a permanent housing which permits simplified insertion and replacement of disposable fluid reservoirs. The housing includes an actuator assembly which is cycled by a lever between first and second positions. The actuator assembly is configured to couple to a piston element of a piston pump carried on the reservoir so that when cycled, the piston element is actuated in sliding movement to dispense a quantity of fluid. The piston element includes resiliently deformable fingers which act to secure the piston element to the actuator assembly for sliding movement therewith. If, on insertion of a replacement reservoir, the reservoir is positioned uncoupled from the actuator assembly, on first cycling of the actuator assembly the fingers deform to permit movement of the actuator assembly relative to the piston element and move towards a coupled orientation. In the coupled orientation, the fingers return to an undeformed configuration securing the piston element to the actuator assembly.
