Abstract: A Patio Heater Double Dome Infrared Heat Reflector/Converter is disclosed. The patio heater dome attachment is attachable to a conventional patio heater so that the dome attachment covers the heater's heat shield, while maintaining an air gap therebetween. There are preferably standoff ridges or other features built into the dome attachment to maintain this air gap and to prevent air from flowing freely between the heat shield and the dome attachment. The dome attachment embodies a very low heat load so that very little heat conduction occurs between the heat shield and the dome attachment, such that more of the heater's energy is reflected towards the usage area. Finally, the perimeter edge of the dome attachment extends downwardly at least until it is essentially horizontally planar with the perimeter edge of the patio heater heat shield.

Title: Positive displacement variable speed transmission with dual motion drive gears
Inventor: LEE GARY D
IPC: F16H3/44
Filed: 2007-06-07
Abstract: The present invention relates to transmission systems and changing gear ratios within power transmission systems. In particular, the present invention relates to a positive displacement variable speed transmission. The transmission includes one or more drive gears which orbit, rotate, and which translate radially to change the size of the orbital path.  The change in the orbital path increases or decreases the linear velocity of the drive gears which engage one or more driven gears and transfer the changed linear velocity in the form of a gear ratio change. The driven gears are also radially movable and movement of the driven gears is synchronized with the radial movement of the drive gears to maintain substantially constant engagement between gear ratios change. Thus, as the drive and driven gears can slide or step radially to any location within a range of positions, gear ratio changes can be made in very small increments.

Title: Method of determining an amount of impurities that a contaminating material contributes to high purity silicon and furnace for treating high purity silicon
Inventor: DEPESA DENNIS
IPC: F25D15/00
Filed: 2009-09-24
Abstract: A method of determining an amount of impurities that a contaminating material contributes to high purity silicon comprises the step of partially encasing a sample of high purity silicon in the contaminating material. The sample encased in the contaminating material is heated within a furnace. A change in impurity content of the high purity silicon is determined after the step of heating, compared to an impurity content of the high purity silicon prior to the step of heating. A furnace for heat treating high purity silicon comprises a housing that defines a heating chamber. The housing is at least partially formed from low contaminant material that contributes less than 400 parts per trillion of impurities to the high purity silicon during heating at annealing temperatures for a sufficient period time to anneal the high purity silicon, and the furnace contributes an average of less than 400 parts per trillion of impurities to the high purity silicon under the same heating conditions.
