Publication number: 20230074517Abstract: Apparatus and methods for providing breath training. In illustrative embodiments, an operator creates a pressure, either positive or negative, in the lungs. This pressure is transferred through a mask assembly to a breathwork apparatus, which utilizes pistons moving within cylinder volumes to provide numerical feedback to an operator regarding the operator's breathing. Through breath control exercises, the operator of a breathwork apparatus can develop deeper and slower breathing habits which are more efficient. One embodiment provides a breathwork apparatus comprising an exhalation side; a transfer case; an inhalation side; and, a mask assembly, wherein the exhalation side and inhalation side are joined by transfer case which comprises a plurality of channels, such that at least a first channel of a plurality of channels terminates in an exhalation rate meter, and at least a second channel of the plurality of channels terminates in an inhalation rate meter.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 7, 2022Publication date: March 9, 2023Inventors: Gary Steven DANIELS, Jesse John BROWNE

Publication number: 20220411110Abstract: ThermaSat™ propulsion system uses water as a safe and non-explosive propellant, and which is unpressurized at liftoff. Utilizing solar thermal propulsion, the compact and efficient capacitor heats water to steam to produce high thrust and total impulse. The advanced optical system allows for the thermal capacitor to charge through solar power alone with no protruding concentrators or power draw from the main bus. Additional solar panels, body mounted to the ThermaSat, provide auxiliary heating of the thermal capacitor when not directly incident to sunlight to promote non-sun pointing operations.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2022Publication date: December 29, 2022Applicant: ThermaSat Inc.Inventors: Troy Michael HOWE, Steven Daniel HOWE, Jack R.
