Patent EP-1354134-B1 (EP)
Inventor: SCHATZ JUERGEN
IPC: F03D3/04

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for exploiting a fluidic force, in which a fluidic throughflow is generated in Newtonian fluids in flow modules in a circulatory process. Said throughflow is divided into a part for concentrating velocity to produce a working reservoir, which is also an induction field for a turbine, and a part for delivering an induction impulse. Both parts are maintained by a fluidic source-sink relationship in the fluid, as long as the source is operated. Various speeds can be set for the induction field depending on the construction. Generators for the production of electric energy can for example be driven under load at a speed of 3000U/min. Turbines located on generator shafts run with slip in the induction field, which results in a differential speed between the turbines and the induction field that can be exploited for energy. The method can be used for generating flow energy and/or electric energy in a wide range of applications. High-rise constructions in towns, for example, can be retrofitted with devices for carrying out said method for generating electric energy, or said devices can be used in new buildings. This allows high-rise constructions to continuously cover at least their own requirements for electric energy, without impacting on or damaging the environment.

Abstract: A medical injection device (10) is provided which includes a shield system (14) and a syringe (12) which may be coupled to the shield system. The shield system includes a syringe holder (26), a shield (28) telescopically received in the holder and slidably coupled to the holder and an end fitting (32) which isolates the syringe flange from the holder, preventing damage to the flange. A spring resiliently urges the shield from a retracted position to an extended position. Stop members (58, 59) are provided adjacent the distal end of the holder (26) and the proximal end of the shield (28) for maintaining the shield in the retracted position. The syringe is slidably coupled to the holder, and extends within the shield. Axial movement of the syringe with respect to the holder causes disengagement of the stop members, allowing the spring (30) to move the shield to the extended position. Detents (53) are provided on the holder for maintaining the shield in the extended position.
