  • Publication number: 20240149103
    Abstract: A system can comprise a driving link, a first footplate link, a footplate, a pulley system, a second footplate link, and a handle. The driving link can rotate, to thereby cause the first footplate link to translate in a first direction. The translation of the first footplate link footplate in the first direction can cause the footplate and the second footplate link to translate in the first direction when the first footplate link translates in the first direction. The translation of the second footplate link in the first direction can transmit force to the handle via the pulley system, thereby causing the handle to translate in a second direction that is substantially opposite the first direction when the first footplate link the footplate, and the second footplate link are translating in the first direction.

    Abstract: A constant density heat exchanger and method of operating are provided. The constant density heat exchanger includes a housing extending between a first end and a second end and defining a chamber having an inlet and an outlet. A first plate is positioned at the first end of the housing and rotatable about an axis of rotation such that the first plate selectively allows a working fluid to flow into the inlet of the chamber. A second plate is positioned at the second end of the housing and rotatable about the axis of rotation such that the second plate selectively allows the working fluid to flow out of the outlet of the chamber. The first plate and the second plate are rotatable about the axis of rotation so as to hold a volume of the working fluid at constant density as a heat source imparts thermal energy thereto.
