Abstract: Dust-resistant mask equipped with a thermoelectric generator attached to the body. The mask is capable of powering an LED, battery or external devices. On the inside of the mask body, there may be a condensation system, grooves for collecting moisture, and a hole for drainage. The mask may have filters of a mechanical, biological and chemical type, both as part of its body and on the inside of the mask body.

Abstract: Turbine consists of several assemblies /2, 4/ of wings /3, 5/ of different length depending on the level of their placement, with the assemblies located higher /4/ having shorter length /l/ of the wings /5/compared to the length /L/ of the wings of the lower assembly /3/. The length /l/ of the wings /5/ of the higher assembly /4/ is from 0.15 to 0.85 of the length /L/ of the wings /3/ of the lower assembly /2/. The tips of the wings /3, 5/ of the subsequent assemblies overlap to 0.15 of the length /L/ of the wings /3/ of the lower assembly /2/. In another version the wing tips /3, 5/ of the successive assemblies are spaced apart by a distance of not less than 0.02 and not more than 0.4 of the length /L/ of the lower assembly /2/.

Abstract: Turbine consists of several assemblies/2, 4/of the wings/3,5/of different diameters/d,D1/depending on their placement, with the diameter/D1/at half of the length of the wings/5/of the assembly/4/located higher of at least 1.05 of the diameter/d/at half of the length of the lowest assembly/2/of the blades/3/. The chords/C1/of profiles of the wings/5/at half of the length of these wings/5/of the upper assembly/4/are from 1.02 to 1.7 of the chords/c/of the wings/3/at half of their length/3/of the assembly/2/at the bottom. The wedging angle of the wings is from 1 to 9 degrees. The parts of the aerodynamic biconvex wings on the inner and outer sides of the chord line are different.
