  • Patent number: 11901708
    Abstract: A cooling system for an air insulated switchgear compartment includes: a housing; a fan; and a flap. The fan is mounted to the housing. The flap is mounted to the housing. The flap is positioned adjacent to the fan such that a rotational axis of the fan does not extend through the flap.

  • Patent number: 11824329
    Abstract: An arc mitigation apparatus for an air insulated switchgear includes: a flap; a switch; and a control mechanism. The flap is installable in a wall of a compartment of a medium voltage switchgear. When the flap is installed in the wall of the compartment of the medium voltage switchgear, the flap permits when open air and/or gas passes through the flap from inside the compartment to outside the compartment. When the flap is installed in the wall of the compartment of the medium voltage switchgear, the flap is movable from a closed position to an open position due to a pressure difference between an inside of the compartment and an outside of the compartment. The switch activates based on movement of the flap. The control mechanism sets a flap threshold pressure for the flap with respect to the pressure difference that will move the flap.

  • Patent number: 4634604
    Abstract: The invention pertains to the method for producing a biocompatible layer on the surface of particles of porous synthetic sorbents.An object of the invention consists in the method for producing a biocompatible layer on the surface of particles of porous synthetic sorbents by action of a solution of biocompatible polymer of acrylate or methacrylate type, or of its monomer in the presence of polymerization initiators, on a suspension of sorbent, which is agitated with steam.The method according to the invention renders a material, the sorption capacity of which is entirely retained. This is due to water, which remains enclosed in the pores of sorbent and enables the sorption of toxins also inside the gel particles. In addition, steam can be prepared completely apyrogenic and thus to secure that the sorbents remain clean inside. Clinical tests reveal that the sorbents coated by the method according to the invention have an excellent hemocompatibility.

  • Patent number: 4254649
    Abstract: The invention relates to a tube bending device, especially for thin walled tubes made from austenitic materials, e.g., for power engineering. The device consists of a pressure truck, adjustable gear, inductor heating coil, cooling section and a bending arm. The tube to be bent is positioned with one end on the pressure truck, and the second end fixed to the bending arm, and is freely placed in the inductor gear and axially moved in the inductor gear on guide rollers of an adjustable gear.
