Abstract: An internal combustion engine installed in an engine compartment 15 covered with an engine cover C is provided with an intake air passage P. The intake air passage P extends continuously from an intake air inlet Pi to intake air outlets Pe in the engine compartment 15 and has a first down passage 62, a reversing passage 63, an up passage 64 and a second down passage 67c arranged in the order in the flowing direction of combustion air. The combustion air taken through the intake air inlet Pi into the intake air passage P flows down through the first down passage 62, the reversing passage 63 reverses the flowing direction of the combustion air that has flowed down through the first down passage 62 such that the combustion air flows up, flows up through the up passage 64 to a position at a level higher than that of an uppermost intake air outlet Pe. Then, the combustion air flows down through the second down passage 67c and flows through the intake air outlets Pe into combustion chambers 30. Thus, an effect on preventing the flow of water into the combustion chamber 30 of the engine is improved.

Abstract: An optical system has a plurality of elements (310-360) arranged to image radiation at a wavelength λ from an object surface (103) to an image surface (102), the elements include mirror elements having a reflective surface positioned at a path of radiation. At least one of the mirror elements is a pupil mirror (320,350) having a pupil mirror surface arranged at or near to a pupil surface of the optical system. At least one of the remaining mirror elements (310,330,340,360) is a highly loaded mirror having a mirror surface arranged at a position where at least one of a largest value of a range of angles of incidence and a largest value of an average angle incidence of all remaining mirrors occurs, where the remaining mirrors include all mirrors except for the pupil mirror. The pupil mirror surface is formed by a reflective coating designed as a one-dimensionally graded coating including a multilayer stack of layers of different materials, the layers having a geometrical layer thickness which varies according to a first grading function in a first direction of the coating and which is substantially constant in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a method and a device for increasing blood flow and controlling the temperature of a mammal by applying a desired pressure to extremities of a mammal. The device generally includes one or more collapsible and pliant body elements (110; 210; 410; 610; 710; 1410), capable of expanding from a first volume into an expanded second volume so the device can receive a portion of an extremity of the mammal therein and then be reduced from the expanded second volume into a pressurized third volume to conformably enclose the portion of the extremity. One or more thermal exchange units (120A/B; 220; 320/B; 420A/B; 620A/B; 720A/B) can be positioned in the one or more collapsible and pliant body elements. Accordingly, the temperature of the extremity of a mammal can be regulated by providing a heated or cooled fluid medium or electric thermal energy to the one or more thermal exchange units. Next, by evacuating the region in which the extremity is enclosed the contact surface area between the extremity of a mammal and the one or more thermal exchange units is increased, due to the external atmospheric pressure acting on the pliant body elements against the skin of the extremity of the mammal. The application of pressure assures that sufficient contact and thermal heat transfer (heating or cooling) is provided to the extremity of the mammal.
