Abstract: An apparatus for extracting heat from a heat source comprising a housing having a first end with a first opening and a second end with a second opening. The housing includes an internal compartment therein and the first end of the housing is connected to said heat source. A channel extends from the housing for providing access to the internal compartment. A hollow conduit is positioned within the internal compartment extending between the first opening and the second opening. A plurality of members are positioned on an exterior surface of the conduit and along the length thereof. The members are able to absorb heat from within the conduit and release the absorbed heat into the internal compartment creating heated air. The apparatus includes a means for drawing air through and expelling air from said conduit and means for moving said heated air out from said internal compartment to a second compartment. The apparatus is activated via means connected to each of the drawing means and the moving means.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to disc brake rotor assemblies which include disc brake rotor ring and a disc brake rotor hat. The disc brake rotor ring may include a first side including an inner perimeter and an outer perimeter, a first annular braking surface and a plurality of first mounting flanges positioned along the inner perimeter for affixing a corresponding portion of a rotor hat. Each flange may include an opening for receiving a fastener. The disc brake rotor ring may also include a second side parallel to and spaced apart from the first side thereby jointly defining a plurality of vents there-between, the second side including an inner perimeter and an outer perimeter, a second annular braking surface having and a plurality of second mounting flanges positioned on the inner perimeter of the for affixing a corresponding portion of a rotor hat. Each flange in the second side may also include an opening for receiving a fastener.

Abstract: An injector assembly that forms means for gasifying a slurry by expanding the infeed bore within the injector assembly having a source of ambient air in communication therewith whereby the negative pressure created draws air into the slurry prior to injection into a flotation cell whereupon the contaminants within the slurry combine with the air bubbles forming a foam at the surface of the cell that is passively directed into a reject nozzle leaving a decontaminated slurry, known as the accept, which is channeled therefrom for further processing.

Abstract: Apparatus 10 discloses a cranial orthosis for treating cranial deformities in infants. The device 10 conforms to the contour of an infant's head 18 and is used to correct positional plagiocephaly by redirecting the compressive forces that would otherwise be imposed on soft, compliant areas of the developing cranium.
