  • Patent number: 7581584
    Abstract: An air conditioning seat device includes an air blower, and a dehumidifier for dehumidifying the air sent from the air blower owing to adsorption, and blows out the dehumidified air to holes provided on a skin of a seat through an air duct. In this makeup, the sweat on the body surface and in the clothes is rapidly vaporized, causing a large amount of vaporization heat loss. Accordingly, the human body feels coolness, and steaminess on the skin is suppressed owing to the sweat vaporization.

  • Publication number: 20070193279
    Abstract: An air conditioned seat device has a support member, an air blower, a skin configured to form a seating surface, an air layer member, and an air-impermeable sheet member. The support member is provided with a duct for air. The air blower takes in air from the outside and passes the air through the duct. The skin passes air sent from the air blower. The air layer member, provided between the support member and skin, temporarily stores air supplied from the duct to form an air layer. The sheet member covering the air layer member is provided with an air flow-out opening configured to induce air to flow out from the air layer.

  • Patent number: 4678428
    Abstract: Disclosed is a fuel burner comprising a nozzle for ejecting fuel, an inner tube having an inlet end for receiving the fuel from the nozzle. The inner tube has first and secod air inlet ports adjacent to and located in positions spaced longitudinally apart in the direction of axis of the inner tube and angularly apart about said axis for introducing primary air into the inner tube so as to produce a helically rising column of air-fuel mixture and providing primary combustion at the outlet end thereof. An outer tube coaxially surrounding the inner tube has secondary air inlet ports for introducing secondary air thereinto to provide secondary combustion at an outlet end. A sensor is located between the outlet ends of the inner and outer tubes for detecting the presence of the primary combustion.

  • Patent number: 4610626
    Abstract: A high load gas combustion apparatus for use mainly in domestic combustors which require a low noise level and compactness. Some of the air for burning supplied from a fan is suctioned to fuel gas jetted through a nozzle to produce a mixture in a mixing tube section, which is then introduced to a mixture chamber defined by a burner body having a uniform shape in the lengthwise direction. The mixture flows into a downstream combustion chamber at a relatively low speed through a flame port section which is incorporated in the burner body on the downstream side of the mixture chamber, and which comprises a number of flame ports having a large opening ratio. The majority of air is supplied to air chambers on both sides of the mixture chamber partitioned by the burner body therefrom.
