Abstract: This mechanical design intends to protect the USB from environmental damage via transfer of linear and circular motion to a housing which houses the USB chip. Unlike other USB housing products with only linear or circular motion, this engineering design does both in order to secure the USB port and enclosing it completely rather than just concealing it, without requiring a separable component. The mechanism is secured in place by applying constant tensile force to the mobile/movable components of the present invention.

Abstract: An apparatus provides a single split-bus electrical panel with back-feed circuit breakers arranged to allow connection of a Microgrid Interconnection Device (MID) for isolation of a critical loads section from a standards loads section during back-up operation due to a utility power outage. A first panel section of the split-bus electrical panel supplies power to non-critical standards loads in a residence. A second panel section of the split-bus electrical panel supplies power to critical loads in the residence, which must continue to be powered during a utility power outage.

Abstract: A port protection device includes a blocking element movement subsystem that may be coupled to a port that defines a port entrance, and a port entrance blocking element connected to the blocking element movement subsystem and defining airflow aperture(s). When the blocking element movement subsystem is coupled to the port, the blocking element movement subsystem allows the port entrance blocking element to be positioned in a port protection orientation immediately adjacent the port entrance such that airflow is restricted to entering the port via the airflow aperture(s). When the blocking element movement subsystem is coupled to the port, the blocking element movement subsystem also allows the port entrance blocking element to move from the port protection orientation to a cable connector orientation in response to engagement with a cable connector so that the cable connector may move through the port entrance to connect to the port.

Abstract: A transformer is provided which includes an insulating sheet separating the primary-side windings and portion of split magnetic core from the secondary-side windings and portion of split magnetic core. Thin layers of conductive and semiconductive material are deposited on areas of the insulating sheet surfaces facing the primary and secondary sides. These layers are electrically referenced or tied to the potentials of the respective primary or secondary sides. This ensures that the high electric field due to primary-to-secondary potential gradient is substantially placed across the insulating sheet dielectric and avoided in the air gaps or voids in the transformer, thus reducing undesirable partial discharge effects. The two core sections on the primary and secondary side are also electrically referenced or tied to the potentials of their adjacent windings, thus reducing high electric fields and partial discharge in the space between the core sections and the windings.

Abstract: An electromagnetic propulsion system for the movement of spacecraft by means of ejection of the perturbed dark matter. In the present invention, to perturb and accelerate the dark matter, the electromagnetic energy generated by microwave generators is supplied to a number of position-adjustable electromagnetic vibrators that form a phased antenna array inside the waveguide. Since the dark matter permeates the Universe and its reserves are unlimited, it can be used as a working medium in the constant acceleration propulsion system for as long as the electric power supply lasts. Since the electromagnetic propulsion system has infinite reserves of the working medium, the specific impulse is also infinite. The speed of the dark matter jet approaches the speed of light.

Abstract: The encased exhaust is a traditional aftermarket expansion chamber muffler system for a two stroke engine encompassing a duct fan/propeller. The propeller is mounted directly to the engine's driveshaft, eliminating reduction gears and belts allowing for more airflow and less weight. This eliminates the muffler and replaces the cage on a paramotor, allowing for more airflow through the funneled air duct. The configuration of these two functions exists in a particular sequence.

The pole holds the whole system together and supports the entire system. The System includes a turbine and a generator assembly. It consists of multiple folded L-shaped rectangle blades, which are structured around an empty cylinder whose purpose is to force air to go around it and into the blades for better efficiency. The empty cylinder is attached to the pole in the center of the system. The blades are attached to a bearing that spins around the pole on the top end and attached to the rotor on the bottom end of the empty cylinder. Each blade is folded at an angle to reduce the drag of the returning blades without compromising the surface area of the going blades.
