Title: Zoom mechanism for a light fixture
Inventor: DAVID KINZER
IPC: F21V14/06
Filed: 2021-04-08
Abstract: A light fixture includes a housing, a light source 116, and a zoom mechanism. The light source 116 is supported within the housing and emits light. The zoom mechanism selectively varies a beam angle of the light emitted from the light fixture and includes a lens 12 and a movable element 30. The lens 12 is fixed relative to the light source 116. The movable element 30 is movable relative to the lens 12 between a first position and a second position. The lens 12 reflects a portion of the light emitted by the light source 116 via internal reflection when the movable element 30 is in the first position. The movable element 30 is closer to at least a portion of the lens 12 when the movable element 30 is in the second position to at least partially frustrate the internal reflection of light.

Abstract: The invention is lidocaine, or a salt thereof, for use in the treatment of COVID-19, an autoimmune disease, or a condition in which an immune response causes a cytokine storm. It may also be used to treat acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) or an autoimmune disease. The autoimmune disease may be scleroderma, dermatomyositis, Parkinson’s, or psoriasis. The lidocaine/lignocaine/xylocaine/ztlido may be formulated for oromucosal or sublingual delivery. It may target the lymphatic system. The unit dose of lidocaine may be from 40-100 mg. Also claimed is a pharmaceutical formulation comprising lidocaine formulated to facilitate uptake by the lymphatic system. The formulation may comprise 60-100 mg of lidocaine in a unit dose with a volume of less than 0.5 ml. Also claimed is a method of treating a subject with COVID-19, autoimmune disease, or a cytokine storm, comprising administering lidocaine targeted to the lymphatic system. The advantage of the invention is that the lidocaine targets the P2X7 receptor, which is involved in an inflammatory response and subsequent cytokine storm. The invention provides a composition and method of administering an effective dose of lidocaine via an oromucosal or sublingual route to target and inhibit/block P2X7 receptors without causing toxicity.

Title: Battery heat dissipation system for new energy vehicle
Inventor: GONG ZHU
IPC: H01M10/625
Filed: 2020-09-16
Abstract: Disclosed in the present invention is a battery heat dissipation system for a new energy vehicle, comprising a protective box in which are mounted a plurality of storage batteries, a condensation tube being embedded on an inner wall of the protective box, and the condensation tube being filled with a coolant. A cylinder is rotatably connected on an inner bottom portion of the protective box, a circular recess arranged coaxially with the cylinder being opened on an upper end of the cylinder, and a circular block being sealedly and rotatably connected inside the circular recess. A water intake end and a water output end of the condensation tube both sealedly penetrate the circular block, and a thermal insulation panel is embedded in the cylinder. In the present invention, by means of different heating conditions in chambers on either side of the cylinder, under the action of a thermal expansion solution in the chambers, sliding pistons in the chambers are caused to constantly move up and down, thus driving the coolant in the condensation tube to flow, and thereby rapidly dissipating heat away from inside a battery pack. Meanwhile, because the motion is driven by means of the heat dissipated from the battery pack, the heat dissipation speed in the battery pack is accelerated while at the same time load on the batteries is reduced, thus being able to extend the service life of the batteries.
