  • Patent number: 7270748
    Abstract: An integrated flow through water sterilization device within a sanitary faucet fixture. A portion of the flow path has a plurality of ultraviolet radiation generating LED's arranged around a transparent flow conduit within the faucet. The ultraviolet radiation generating LED's effectively sterilize the water as it flows through and is dispensed by the faucet. A hydro-electric generator is driven by a water flow to the faucet upon demand and provides electrical power for the ultraviolet radiation generating LED's as water is used.

  • Patent number: 6941756
    Abstract: An inline heating device for fluid has rotary members frictionally engaging a fixed heat exchanger chamber defining a central fluid transfer conduit. The rotary members are rotated by a drive shaft having a multiple vein turbine assembly adjacent the heat exchanger chamber fluid transfer conduit being driven by the fluid flow therethrough. The rotary members have enhanced friction engagement surface portions which are spring urged against a portion of the heat exchanger chamber generating heat therein for thermal transfer to the fluid flow therewithin.

  • Patent number: 6684822
    Abstract: An inline heating device for fluid has rotary members frictionally engaging fixed housing extensions on a central fluid transfer conduit. The rotary members are rotated by drive shafts having multiple vein turbine assemblies respectively thereon within the fluid transfer conduit. The rotary members have enhanced friction engagement surface which are spring urged against the fixed housing extension engagement surfaces generating heat therein for thermal transfer to the fluid flow within the transfer conduit driving the turbine assemblies.
