Title: Airbag for cushioning the fall of an individual from a height
Inventor: OSLER-WEPPENAAR FREDERICK EDWA
Filed: 2006-01-09
Abstract: An inflatable airbag for cushioning the free-fall of an individual from a height is disclosed.

The base bag 150 is separated into sections by vented baffles and has breather holes in its upper surface allowing airflow to and from the bag. The crumple tubes 160 are attached to the base bag over the breather holes so that the air pressure within the bag maintains the crumple tubes in an extended position. In use, an individual will fall onto the top sheet which joins the top of the crumple tubes. This causes the crumple tubes to lean in towards the impact area and helps contribute to a soft landing.
Patent NZ-549434-A (NZ)
Title: Heat exchanger
Inventor: ENGLE RAPHAEL
Filed: 2006-08-24
Abstract: A heat exchange system (1) having a heat exchange chamber (2). The chamber has a partition (100) which spans across the width of chamber and separates a first horizontal conveyor system (101) which moves product (5) in the direction of arrow (X) from a second horizontal conveyor system (102) which moves the product in the direction of arrow (Y). The chamber has apertures (not shown) which allow for product in-feed, as generally indicated by arrow (3), and for product out-feed as generally indicated by arrow (4), to allow for, product in the form of cartoned meat (5), to enter/exit the chamber. In operation, the product (5) is cooled as a result of a CIO in the form of fans (15) blowing air in the direction of arrow (20). The fans (15) blow the air towards a heat exchanger in the form of an evaporator (21). After exiting the evaporator (21) the cooled air first comes into contact with product (5) at the end of conveyor belts (104) in the second horizontal conveyor system (102). The cooled air travels in the direction of arrows (22) until it reaches the back wall (52) of the chamber (2). At this point the air moves in the direction of arrow (23) before it continues to travel in the direction of arrow (24) through the first horizontal conveyor system (101) and past conveyor lines (103). Once the air exits the first horizontal conveyor system (101) it hits the front wall (51) moves in the direction of arrows (24) to re-enter the fans (15) and repeat the process.
