  • Publication number: 20180252757
    Abstract: Examples disclose a computing system comprising a host device with a connection socket to support multiple types of cables by detecting a first key position and a second key position for determination of the type of cable. Further, the computing system comprises a switching circuit to determine a logic state of each of the key positions. Additionally, the switching circuit is to deliver power associated with the type of cable based on the logic states of the key positions.

  • Patent number: 6679351
    Abstract: An air turbine apparatus for use with a combustion engine either as a muffler or as an air intake device is comprised of a housing defining an expansion chamber and an airfoil positioned within the housing. The airfoil includes a central aperture extending longitudinally therethrough that is in fluid communication with both the inlet and the outlet of the housing. The airfoil is configured to allow gases flowing through the inlet to flow between the outer edge of the airfoil and the housing and through the aperture of the airfoil. In addition, the air traveling through the housing is caused to spin as it travels through the housing. This rotational flow increased the rate of flow of gases through the air turbine device. A chop core is provided between the airfoil and the outlet of the housing to encourage turbulent flow of gases without restricting flow to produce a muffling effect and thus a dampening of noise from the combustion engine.
