  • Patent number: 11960092
    Abstract: A light source or projector for a near-eye display includes a light source subassembly optically coupled to a waveguide concentrator. The light source subassembly may include several semiconductor chips each hosting an array of emitters such s superluminescent light-emitting diodes. The semiconductor chips may be disposed side-by-side, with their emitting sides or facets coupled to the waveguide concentrator, which provides a tight array of output light ports on a common output plane of the concentrator. The output diverging beams at the array of output light ports are coupled to a collimator, which collimates the beams and couples them to an angular scanner for scanning the collimated light beams together across the field of view of the display.

  • Publication number: 20240035404
    Abstract: An oil separation baffle is mounted in an oil gallery of an internal combustion engine. A lower section includes a bottom wall and side window openings. Crankcase gasses flow into the side window openings, through the lower section, and through the top opening. An upper section includes a plurality of ribs extending horizontally between a front side wall of the upper section and a rear side wall of the upper section. The plurality of ribs are vertically spaced apart from each other and extend from a first wall of the oil gallery toward a second wall of the oil gallery to an opening defined between a distal end of the rib and the other of the first and second walls of the oil gallery. The bottom planar wall separates larger oil droplets and the ribs separate smaller oil particles from the crankcase gasses and return the oil to the crankcase.

  • Publication number: 20220052416
    Abstract: In one aspect the present disclosure relates to a battery cabinet apparatus having flame and noxious gas management capability. The apparatus has a plurality of parallel arranged vertical frame elements, a plurality of spaced apart shelves disposed within an interior area of the apparatus, and a plurality of louver panels. The louver panels are arranged one above another and coupled to a first pair of the vertical frame elements. Each of the louver panels has an upper portion and a lower portion, where the lower portion, angles inwardly, relative to the interior area of the apparatus. In this manner the upper portion of a first one of the louver panels cooperates with the lower portion of a second one of said louver panels disposed immediately above the first one of the louver panels to form an opening for exhausting at least one of flames or noxious gasses that develop within the apparatus.

  • Patent number: 8562333
    Abstract: A molding machine apparatus and method for the production of thermoplastic skins or shells by means of what is generally known as rotational or slush molding. The tooling is heated uniformly, rapidly and efficiently by means of high velocity, hot air streams directed at the tooling which create turbulent flow on the surface of the tooling. The air stream is accelerated by means of adjustable nozzles and the air is circulated in the mold by means of a centrifugal fan.

  • Patent number: 7490937
    Abstract: The present invention provides a series of aspherical contact lenses, each lens having a first central optical zone on its anterior surface and a second central optical zone on its posterior surface. Both central optical zones are aspherical surfaces. The first central optical zone is designed to have a surface which provides a target optical power and an optical power profile selected from the group consisting of (1) a substantially constant optical power profile, (2) a power profile mimicking the optical power profile of a spherical lens with an identical targeted optical power, and (3) a power profile in which lens spherical aberration at 6 mm diameter is from about 0.65 diopter to about 1.8 diopters more negative than spherical aberration at 4 mm diameter.
