Patent number: 12000393Abstract: A thrust plate for use in a scroll compressor is described. The thrust plate comprises a disk-shaped body defining a plane and having a first side and a second side, wherein the second side opposes the first side, at least one protrusion extending from the first side, and at least one recess located at the second side, wherein the at least one protrusion and the at least one recess overlap at least partially in a direction perpendicular to the plane. Further, a system is described, wherein the system comprises a thrust plate with at least one protrusion and an orbiting scroll plate with at least one recess, wherein the at least one protrusion and the at least one recess overlap. Also, a scroll compressor having either a corresponding thrust plate or a corresponding system is described.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2022Date of Patent: June 4, 2024Assignee: Copeland Europe GmbHInventors: Linus Dellweg, Xiaogeng Su, Geoffrey Bailly, Jesús Ángel Nohales Herraiz, Sheng Liang

Publication number: 20150066119Abstract: Infant warming systems are described herein generally comprising a temperature regulation assembly which encloses a phase change material (PCM). The temperature regulation assembly may be initially heated (or re-heated) by water contained within a heating assembly and then placed within a retaining pouch of an infant bedding. The PCM may then provide constant heat over a period of time to the infant. A control/indicator interface coupled to the regulation assembly may constantly monitor the temperature of the PCM as well as the ambient temperature to provide one or more indications or alerts to the user with respect to one of several states of the warming assembly.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2013Publication date: March 5, 2015Applicant: Embrace InnovationsInventors: Rahul A.

Publication number: 20150012075Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for regulating body temperature. The system includes a housing that comprises compartments for a phase change material and a heat transfer material. The compartments are configured to transfer heat from the heat transfer material to the phase change material. A temperature sensor is used to determine when the phase change material has reached a pre-determined temperature. When the pre-determined temperature is reached, a release mechanism or lever is coupled to the temperature sensor to separate the phase change material compartment from the heat transfer material compartment or to remove the heat transfer material away from the phase change material compartment. The heated phase change material compartment can be used to regulate body temperature.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2014Publication date: January 8, 2015Inventors: Linus Liang, Jane Chen, Rahul Panicker, Naganand Murty, Eu-wen Ding, Rajan Patel
