Patent EP-3051019-A1 (EP)
Inventor: PIETRA DIEGO
IPC: D06F75/14
Filed: 2016-01-26
Abstract: The present invention relates to an ironing apparatus comprising: a water tank, a filter for reducing the water hardness placed in fluid communication with the tank and adapted to receive and filter the water contained in the tank, an iron that comprises at least a main body and a thermo-conductive metal plate secured to the base of the main body and adapted to receive the filtered water from the filter. Furthermore, the filter for reducing the water hardness comprises at least one ion exchange resin provided with silver ions. 
     Such a filter for reducing the water hardness provided with ion-exchange resins supplied of silver ions is able to prolong the life of the iron, reducing the hardness of the filtered water and preventing the formation of algae in the filter itself, thus avoiding thereby the formation of limestone and the proliferation of algae in both resins and other parts of the hydraulic lines in the iron.

Abstract: 1- Summary 
     
     The first gravity cell was invented by John Frederic Daniell in 1836. It was made of two electrolyte with different density (CuSO 4  for the anode and ZnSO 4/ H 2 SO 4  for the cathode). 
     Another type of cells is based on the Soret's effect that generates an electric potential when the opposite sides of an electrolyte are maintained at a different temperature. 
     This new type of (battery) cell is based on an electric potential that will appear between the top and bottom surface of the cell due to the difference of concentration between anions and cathions due to opposing gravitational and Diffusion effects. 
     This Gravitational-Diffusional Electrolytic cell simply use one electrolyte (typically in acqueous solvent) and do not involve any Redox reaction. Several electrolytes can be used including organic ones provided their conductivity is high. 
     Even if it can be easily transported it does not require to be charged (permanent) and simple enough to be cost effective.

Abstract: An aircraft comprises a landing gear assembly on a part of which is mounted a motor (320) for driving a wheel of the landing gear assembly, for example to enable the aircraft to perform taxiing manoeuvres. The motor (320) is a liquid-cooled motor and the liquid that is used to cool the motor is hydraulic fluid (350), preferably hydraulic fluid taken from a hydraulic system that already exists on the aircraft to supply other consumers (333) of hydraulic fluid pressure on the aircraft. The hydraulic fluid thus has other utility (i.e. other than cooling the motor) on the aircraft and therefore has a significant volume (and therefore a significant heat capacity). There may be a need to convert from high pressure hydraulic fluid (334) to a lower pressure supply.
