Abstract: A connection node assembly for use in connecting an upper prefabricated building module to a lower module. Hollow vertical edge supports of the building modules have top and bottom connection parts. A connecting bolt can be passed through the top part of an upper vertical support in the upper building module and seated within the bottom part of that vertical support with the shank extending downward. The shank engages a threaded aperture in a connecting nut secured within the top part of a corresponding lower vertical support in the lower building module. Diaphragm plates sandwiched between the upper and lower vertical supports are used to tie horizontally placed modules together.

Abstract: A wearable cooling device to restore and/or maintain a user's thermal comfort is provided. The wearable cooling device is versatile and may cool various locations on a user's body, e.g., wrist, neck and ankle. The wearable cooling device utilizes a forced air device, e.g., a fan, that blows air onto a wetted piece of media which is in direct contact with a high thermally conductive element that is in contact with a user's skin or with a user's outer clothing. The wetted media is situated between the forced air device and the high thermally conductive element. When the forced air device is activated, the exhaust air passes onto/around the wetted media, which cools the high thermally conductive element, thereby cooling down the user. The wearable cooling device may be combined with watch functionality and the relative positioning of the wearable cooling device and watch functionality may be controlled for user benefit.
