The device comprises: (a) a wind-engaging member connected to a base station by a load cable; (b) a load cable storage means disposed at the base station; (c) a control device to veer out and haul in the load cable section cyclically from and into the load cable storage means; (d) an energy converter to convert the energy from the wind flow force transferred from the wind-engaging member via the load cable, and the energy from the movement of the load cable section veered out from the load cable storage means into an electrical, thermodynamic or mechanical form of energy; (e) a steering mechanism to produce a steered movement about a first axis or in a first direction of the wind-engaging member relative to the airflow direction; (f) a control unit configured to use the steering mechanism to bring the wind-engaging member, after the load cable section has been veered out, into a flight position associated with a low tensile force, and bring the wind-engaging member, after the section of load cable has been hauled in, into a flight position associated with a high tensile force. The wind-engaging member has an aerodynamic profile and the steering mechanism generates a steered movement of the wind-engaging member, relative to the direction of airflow, in a second direction or about a second axis that is different from the first direction or axis. The control unit is configured to move the wind-engaging member along a predetermined flight path in a flight plane perpendicular to the load cable. In one embodiment the device further comprises an additional load cable provided with a respective additional wind-engaging member. The wind-engaging member has an aerodynamic profile which generates an uplift force in the direction of the load cable when the airflow direction is perpendicular to the profile and comprises a steering mechanism and a control unit. The steering mechanism is configured to produce a steered movement of the additional wind-engaging member relative to the direction of airflow, in a first direction or about a first axis, and in a second, different direction, or about a second axis different from the first axis. The control unit is configured to move the additional wind-engaging member along a predetermined flight path in a plane perpendicular to the load cable, in such a way that the second load cable is veered out and hauled in with a phase shift relative to the first load cable.

Title: Dry powder inhaler with drug capsules having a side air inlet and a top outlet for the emitted powder
Inventor: KRIKSUNOV LEO B
IPC: A61M15/00
Filed: 2008-02-28
Abstract: A dry powder inhaler is disclosed. The inhaler has a flat vibrator (100) coupled to a container. The container (110) has a flat bottom and is filled with a dry powder drug substance (120). The inhaler has a flow channel (300) to enable air (310) to flow though the device past the container (110) and have the drug (120) entrained in it (320). Upon vibration of the vibrator (100), the drug substance (120) is de-aggregated, aerosolised, and ejected from drug ejection apertures (150) for inhalation by a patient. The drug ejection apertures (150) are formed at the top of the container (110), substantially opposite the vibrator (100). One or more air intake apertures (200) in the side of the container are not used for ejection of drug substance but permits air (205) or gas to enter the container (110) from outside and thus facilitates de-aggregation, aerosolisation, and ejection of drug substance (120) from container (110).

Title: Roll coupling trailer hitch assembly including a roll torque transfer structure and an alignment mechanism
Inventor: WULFF LAWRENCE H
IPC: B60D1/01
Filed: 2009-07-06
Abstract: A roll coupling assembly 444 includes a roll torque transfer structure and an alignment mechanism. The torque transfer structure includes a first load bearing structure mountable to the rear of the tow vehicle, and a second load bearing structure mountable to the front of the trailer drawbar. Corresponding first and second load bearing surfaces cooperate so as to releasably mate with one another for towing of the trailer behind the tow vehicle. The bearing surfaces are distributed across a substantially planar interface between the rear of the tow vehicle and the front of the trailer drawbar so as to distribute to the tow vehicle torque imparted to the drawbar by relative rolling motion between the trailer and tow vehicle. The cumulative combined roll resistance of the tow vehicle and trailer will resist the rolling of the trailer about the drawbar. The coupling alignment mechanism adjusts the relative orientation of the first and second load bearing surfaces in the substantially planar interface so as to align the first and second load bearing surfaces for mating with one another. The coupling alignment mechanism includes a coupler that is selectively rotatable about the roll axis of the trailer drawbar and mounted between the front of the drawbar and the rear of the tow vehicle. The selectively rotatable coupler includes a selectively releasable lock. The coupling alignment mechanism includes at least one roller mounted between the first and second load bearing surfaces to reduce wear between the first and second load bearing surfaces.

Title: Sensor activated apparatus for funnelling urine into a toilet from a standing user
Inventor: MEHTA MAHENDRA NAGINDAS
IPC: A47K10/18
Filed: 2010-01-25
Abstract: Urinal apparatus (100) with an inverted flushable funnel for a commode (200) that converts the commode into a temporary urinal. Upon first sensor activation by a standing user, a movable jaw (12) moves forward and clamps a flushable funnel (15) against a movable arm (13). Simultaneously, the jaw pushes first switch (30) causing the arm to move forward dispensing and suspending the funnel above the commode bowl. The user urinates through the funnel, which channels the urine down into the commode bowl preventing urine spill around the commode. When through urinating, and second sensor activation by the user, the jaw retracts releasing the used funnel into the bowl. Simultaneously, the jaw pushes second switch (31) causing the arm to retract into the apparatus leaving the commode to function unimpeded. Flushing drains away the used funnel. Alternatively, without the apparatus (100), the user manually holds the funnel above the bowl, urinates through, drops it and flushes. The flushable funnels, have wet strength, water repellency, but degrade. The apparatus also stores extra funnels and toilet rolls.
