  • Publication number: 20080254326
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a system of converting and storing energy. Energy in the form of, for example, wind power or solar energy is used to convert carbon dioxide to methyl alcohol in an electrochemical cell. The methyl alcohol may later be used to produce electricity in a fuel cell.

  • Publication number: 20080237943
    Abstract: The invention relates to a an arrangement and a method for heating metal objects such as metal bars by convection. The metal objects are passed on a conveyor through a series of chambers where hot air is blown through the conveyor. The temperature is controlled by a sensor connected to a control devise such as a thyristor.

  • Patent number: 5282422
    Abstract: A sub-combat unit to be separated from a flying body, comprises a warhead, a target detector and two diametrically disposed carrier surfaces designed and arranged to impart to the sub-combat unit a rotation for scanning of the target area in a helical pattern during the fall of the sub-combat unit down towards the target area. The two carrier surfaces are pivotable between a closed position and an opened position in which the two carrier surfaces form a retarding area for controlling the fall velocity of the sub-combat unit and a flow influencing means is provided at at least one of the two carrier surfaces for creating a turbulent area immediately above the carrier surface for completely relieving the carrier surfaces even for large differences in the direction of the impinging wind.

  • Patent number: 5280752
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sub-combat unit which is disposed to be separated from a flying body, for example a carrier shell or the like, over a target area, the sub-combat unit comprising a warhead (4), a target detector (5) and two diametrically located carrier surfaces (1, 2) which impart to the sub-combat unit a rotation for scanning the target area in a helical pattern during the fall of the sub-combat unit down towards the target area, and both of the carrier surfaces (1, 2) being pivotally disposed from a collapsed position to an opened position where both of the carrier surfaces form a retarding area for the fall velocity of the sub-combat unit. The sub-combat unit is designed such that the relationship between the largest main inertia moment and the other main inertia moments of the sub-combat unit lies within the range of between 1.05 and 1.15.
