Abstract: A fluid distribution tank of a heat exchanger includes a pair of plates, including a first plate and a second plate, coupled with each other to define a distribution chamber with a connecting opening between the first plate and the second plate, the connecting opening being adapted to form connection between the fluid distribution tank and a tubular element of the heat exchanger, and at least one dividing wall located between the first plate and the second plate to divide the distribution chamber into at least two sub-chambers. Volumes of the individual sub-chambers are different from each other.

Abstract: An attachment for a heat exchange plate, having an attachment base plate extending within a base plane, having a bottom side and a top side between which a thickness of the attachment base plate extends, with a plurality of contact portions extending away from the top side independently from each other. The attachment base plate is of rectangular, elongated outline extending along an attachment longitudinal axis and an attachment lateral axis, the extension along the attachment longitudinal axis being predominant. At least one contact portion has a different longitudinal length than another contact portion, the longitudinal length being measured along the attachment longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A heat exchanger including a primary tube including a first flat plate and a first shaped plate connected to each other to form a first fluid channel. The first flat plate and the first shaped plate include fluid openings to enable fluid flow to and from the primary tube.

Abstract: A tubular element for a heat exchanger includes at least one set of inlet channels, at least one set of outlet channels, and at least one separating wall configured between the at least one set of inlet channels and the at least one set of outlet channels. The at least one set of inlet channels and the at least one set of outlet channels are configured asymmetric with respect to each other with reference to the at least one separating wall.

Abstract: A heat exchanger assembly, including a heat exchanger with a primary tube including a first fluid channel for a heat exchange fluid; a first heat source module with a plurality of first heat sources; an attachment with a plurality of contact portions exposed to the plurality of first heat sources, mounted on the primary tube adjacent to the first fluid channel.

Abstract: A fluid distribution tank for a flat tube of a heat exchanger, including: a top plate and a bottom plate coupled with each other to define a chamber with a tube opening. The top plate includes a top flat base and a top chamber base raised above the top flat base, while the bottom plate includes a bottom flat base and a bottom chamber base raised above the bottom flat base. The top and bottom chamber bases define the chamber. The top flat base is arranged in contact with the bottom flat base so that the top chamber base and the bottom chamber base are raised in the opposite directions. The chamber is divided into an inlet sub-chamber and an outlet sub-chamber by a division wall.

Abstract: Systems and methods for radial gesture navigation are provided. In example embodiments, user input data is received from a user device. The user input data indicates a continuous physical user interaction associated with a display screen of the user device. An initial point and a current point are detected from the user input data. A radius distance for a circle that includes the current point and is centered about the initial point is determined. An action is selected from among multiple actions based on the radius distance being within a particular range among successive ranges along a straight line that starts at the initial point and extends through the circle. Each range among the successive ranges corresponds to a particular action among the multiple actions. The selected action is performed in response to detecting a completion of the continuous physical user interaction.

Abstract: A thermal control device has a thermal control device base, a connection block attached to the thermal control device and a tubing for a heat exchange fluid attached to the connection block. The tubing has a tubing extension axis and a tubing side wall. The connection block includes a connection block receiving section which receives a part of the tubing side wall. The connection block is configured to facilitate heat exchange between the tubing side wall and the thermal control device.

Abstract: Processes for forming a coating on electroconductive flat blanks having two major surfaces and sheared edges are provided. Also provided is a process for forming a multi-composite coating on a pre-sheared, electroconductive, flat blank having two major surfaces and sheared edges. Methods for forming and coating metal blanks are also provided. The present invention further provides a pre-sheared, flat electroconductive blank having two major surfaces and coated with a multi-layer composite coating composition on one major surface. The present invention also provides a method for coating a continuous metal strip, optionally, thereafter forming a coated blank therefrom, and, optionally, applying a second coating to the blank.

Abstract: A coated article includes a non-conductive substrate, such as glass. At least one conductive coating is formed over at least a portion of the substrate, such as by chemical vapor deposition or physical vapor deposition. The conductive coating can be a functional coating and can have a thickness in the range of greater than 0 ? to less than 25,000 ?, such as less than 10,000 ?. At least one polymeric coating is electrodeposited over at least a portion of the conductive coating.

Abstract: A three-wheeled device (10) for pedal-powered riding, wherein the device (10) provides a substantial but not excessive riding challenge. The preferred device (10) broadly comprises three wheels (12); two shafts (14); and two pedals (16). The wheels (12) are oriented parallel to one another so as to rotate about a common axis. Each shaft extends between and couples (14) two of the wheels (12) in an offset manner. Bearings (26) may be provided to facilitate movement of the shafts relative to the wheels (12) by reducing friction therebetween. Each pedal (16) is coupled with a different one of the shafts (14). For added safety, the pedals (16) may include non-slip contact surfaces (30) and light reflectors (32). In use, a rider stands on the pedals (16) and applies force thereto, with the force being transferred via the shafts (14) to the wheels (12) which are thereby caused to roll.

Abstract: A lifting mechanism for moving a trough from a lowered position to an elevated having a pair of guide tracks operably coupled to a trough cradle by a pair of roller mechanisms. A lifting arm operably couples the trough cradle to a drive mechanism. As the trough cradle is elevated, the roller mechanisms move away from the drive mechanism and the trough cradle to rotate about a transverse axis.
