Abstract: The invention relates to machine building in particular to blade machines for air injection, in particular to fans and air blowers, and also to blades of different propulsion devices. The inventive method for increasing the blade (1) performance consists in producing a blade (1) in the form of a wing and in carrying out the boundary layer suction on the blade 1 surface on the opposite side with respect to the incoming air flow through a system of slotted holes (4). The blade (1) is provided with a thick airfoil profile. The air suction is carried out through the system of slotted holes (4) embodied along the blade (1) and into cavities (5) which are embodied under said holes (4) along the latter and each of which is provided with a central longitudinal hollow body arranged therein, said body forming an annular channel (7) in each cavities (5) in such a way that a vortex-like flow is generated by the incoming air flow in said channel. The air is sucked out from the cavities (5) and the central bodies (6) through branch channels (8). The latter are used to discharge air outside of the blade (1). The air flowing-off along the cavities (5) and along the blade 1 is limited within the cavities (5) by mounting partitions and on an external surface of the blade (1) - by mounting ribs (9). In another embodiment of the method, the cavity is embodied without the central body (6). As a result, the invention makes it possible to increase the blade performance.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for a pump and a pump control system. The apparatus includes pistons integrally formed in a diaphragm and coupled to the diaphragm by convolutes. The convolutes have a bottom surface angled with respect to a top surface of the pistons. The apparatus also includes an outlet port positioned tangentially with respect to the perimeter of an outlet chamber. The apparatus further includes a non-mechanical pressure sensor and a temperature sensor coupled to a pump control system. For the method of the invention, the microcontroller provides a pulse-width modulation control signal to an output power stage in order to selectively control the power provided to the pump. The control signal is based on the pressure within the pump, the current being provided to the pump, the voltage level of the battery, and the temperature of the pump.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for treating bladder emptying dysfunctions of a human, in which a catheter that can be inserted into the urethra is provided with a bladder emptying channel and with a balloon arrangement, which serves to seal the bladder and to hold the catheter inside the bladder lumen and which can be filled with a fluid. In addition, an automatically closing valve having an elastically held closure part is provided in a proximal end area of the catheter and is connected via a connecting channel filled with an actuating fluid to an actuating balloon placed at the distal end section of the catheter. Without the use of mechanical means, the closure part can be lead out of a sealing system solely due to a hydraulic action effected by the actuating balloon via the hydraulic pressure built up in the connecting channel at said proximal end section. This closure part can be lead out of the sealing system to such an extent as to open the bladder emptying channel of the catheter for an unobstructed passage of urine.

Abstract: A method of producing a densified SiC article is provided. Near-net shape porous silicon carbide articles are produced and densified using the developed method. A substantial number of pores within the porous near-net shape silicon carbide article are filled (impregnated) with a carbon precursor, a silicon carbide precursor, or a mixture of both. The carbon precursor can be liquid or gas. The filled SiC preform is heated to convert the carbon or silicon carbide precursor to porous carbon or SiC preform inside the pores of the net-shape silicon carbide article. The impregnation/pyrolysis cycle is repeated until the desired amount of carbon and/or silicon carbide is achieved. In case of a carbon or a mixture of silicon carbide/carbon precursor is used, the pyrolyzed near-net shape silicon carbide article is then contacted with silicon in an inert atmosphere. The silicon diffuses through the pyrolyzed near-net shape silicon carbide article and reacts with the carbon contained within the pores of the porous SiC preform producing a new phase of silicon carbide within the pores of the near-net shape silicon carbide article. The produced silicon carbide is a near-net dense silicon carbide article.

Abstract: A locomotive (10) is operable in two or more distinct configurations, with the change in configuration being response to a configuration input signal (35). A locomotive configuration is represented by the set of end use device control signals (13) that are generated by the locomotive control systems (22) in response to the respective set of operational input values (27). For a given set of operational input values, a first set of end use device control signals is generated when a configuration input has a first value, and a second set of end use device control signals is generated when a configuration input has a second value. The configuration input variable is responsive to an emission profile associated with the locomotive location. A value of a locomotive emission parameter corresponding to the emission profile is monitored and saved in a storage device (e.g., 104).
