Patent CA-2695631-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PANASIUK NICK JR
IPC: F03D3/00
Filed: 2010-03-08
Abstract: This invention, is a Wind Turbine with counter-rotating "Wind Paddles". The "Main Cage" spins clockwise while the "Wind Paddles" spin Counter-clockwise. For every 2 revolutions of the "Main Cage", the "Wind paddles" rotate 1 revolution in the opposite direction. This maintains the largest portion of the "Wind Paddle" almostperpendicular to the relative air flow for over 120 degrees of travel. The relative Air flow is also enhanced by the design and shape of the "Main Frame Housing" to redirect all available air through the "Wind Paddles". The housing of "Main Frame" is designed to be installed so that it will automatically weather vein into the up coming wind and provide automatic over speed protection in the case of severe wind by deflecting the wind around the "Main Cage". "The Ultimate Turbine" has 4 rotating axis which allows for more electrical production per revolution. Another major factor is that the "Wind Paddle" moves in the same direction as the Relative air flow unlike traditional turbines which are deflected almost 90 degrees.

Title: Non-dilution blower apparatus for high efficiency water heater
Inventor: GARRETT MICHAEL K
IPC: F24B7/06
Filed: 2010-05-07
Abstract: A blower housing of novel two-piece construction is comprised of first and second housing parts of stamped or drawn sheet metal that are attached together. The two-piece construction provides the housing with two interior portions separated by an interior wall. The interior wall has an opening that is spaced from the aligned exhaust opening of the heater and the output opening of the housing. This creates a winding exhaust gas flow path through the blower housing. The interior wall is also provided with a recessed cavity that receives a portion of a fan rotated by a motor supported by the blower housing. Positioning of at least a portion of the fan in the cavity reduces the overall height dimension of the blower housing and facilitates the retrofitting of the blower housing between an existing exhaust opening of a heater and an axially aligned flue pipe.
