Title: Process and installation for producing useable energy from parallel flows
Inventor: SCHATZ OLAF
IPC: F03D1/04
Filed: 1992-05-29
Abstract: Abstract Process  and  device  for  generating  usable  energy  from parallel flows The  invention proposes   a  process   and  device   for generating  usable  energy  from  parallel  flows,  which device comprises a flow unit intended for generating a potential  vortex  and  comprising  at  least  one  inflow aperture and at least one outflow aperture, and a turbine arranged  in  the  direction  of  flow  of  the  potential vortex.  The flow unit comprises an outer hollow member which consists of a plurality of flaps and is covered by plates at both ends, with one plate containing an outflow aperture,   and   an   inner   hollow   member   arranged concentrically relative to the outer hollow member.  The built-up pressure acting on the outer hollow member opens some of the movable flaps and closes the others,  as a result of which there  is  generated a rotary  flow.  The rotary  flow,  while  flowing  tangentially  into       the inner hollow member, is accelerated further and forms a swirl  flow which  is  directed  outwardly  by  the  vacuum existing at the outflow aperture and which, after having passed through the outflow aperture, is converted into a potential  vortex  by  the  shear  forces  of  the  parallel flows.  In the outer hollow member there is arranged a separating element which divides the rotary flow into a first and a second partial  flow and which comprises  a through-flow aperture directed towards the inner hollow member. The potential vortex draws a flow volume from the second  partial  flow  and/or  from  outside  through  the through-flow aperture, with a turbine being arranged in the   operating   range   of   the   potential   vortex. Additionally, in the region of the second partial flow, there  are  arranged  vortex  generating  elements  which convert  the  second  partial  flow  into  a  plurality  of vortices,  with  said  vortices  being  included  in  the potential  vortex.  The  potential  vortex  coil  produced in this way generates an intensifying flow field.            (Figure 1)

Patent CA-2114772-A1 (CA)
Title: Lighter
Inventor: IWAHORA MASAYUKI
IPC: F23Q2/16
Filed: 1994-02-02
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE When a lighter is not in use, a push-down member (41) is kept positioned on one end side of a lift-up lever (27) and has a lower end abutting against a lighter body (1) to set a locked state to restrict a pushdown action. As the push-down member (41) is moved along the lift-up lever (27) toward the other end thereof, the locked state is released and the position of that movement of the push-down member (41) toward the other end of the lift-up lever (27) is maintained by its relationship with respect to the lighter body (1) or the lift-up lever (27). When the push-down member (41) is then pushed down, the lift-up lever (27) is rotated to open the valve means (9,15) and ignition means (17, 21, 25) is activated at a same time to ignite the fuel injected through the valve means (9,15). When that downward action of the pushdown member (41) is released, the pushdown member (41) moves upward to the original state while moving toward the one end of the lift-up lever (27) returning by the urging force of an elastic member (13) along the lift-up lever (27). Therefore, releasing of the locked state and ignition can both be accomplished merely by manipulating a single operating member, namely, the push-down member (41), and after the ignition, the pushdown member (41) automatically returns to the locked state. It is therefore possible to significantly improve the operability of the lighter without deteriorating the safety function of its safety device.
