  • Patent number: 8336659
    Abstract: A mechanical compressor system of potential energy storage for the electric energy generation for electric vehicles and/or with compressed air motor, without withdrawing power to the engine, which allows you as the vehicle travels through irregular terrain: a. take advantage of the vehicle weight to generate startup rpm from generator, both at the ascent and descent of the rack getting the same rpm output of gearbox thus increasing the rpm output of the generator; b. compress air more quickly to have rings of tightness in its cylinder piston which allows to accumulate air compressed by storage tanks through taking advantage of the weight of the vehicle in motion; c. take advantage of the pressure surplus accumulated in the main compressed air storage tank and redirect to the compressed air auxiliary storage tank and after certain pressure, release it into the turbine of the generator in motion and accelerating the movement to generate electricity.

  • Patent number: 8245717
    Abstract: The invention relates to medicine, in particular to dentistry. The inventive dental stick comprises a holder (1) provided with oppositely deflected massaging (2) and cleaning (3) elements tapered towards the ends thereof. Said holder is bent so that a fold is formed in the middle section thereof with two symmetrical segments (4) and (5) oppositely shifted with respect to a symmetry axis (6). Said symmetrical segments of the holder (1) have round cross sections (7) reducing away from the middle of the holder towards the massaging elements (2). Said massaging (2) and cleaning (3) elements are formed by two flat faces (8) and (9) which are perpendicular to the holder axis plane. The massaging elements are deflected to the sides which are opposite to the shift of the holder symmetrical segments with respect to the symmetry axis (6). The cleaning elements are provided with roundish-shaped extensions oppositely oriented with respect to the holder axis plane.
