  • Patent number: 6178707
    Abstract: A new small skylight which can be installed in buildings in general, on the roof of rooms requiring natural lighting. The advantage of this skylight over previous ones lies in its small size, thus avoiding having to make a wide roof opening for installation, with the consequent risks and dangers involved. An external reflecting flat sheet rotating with respect to a transverse axis placed on the top base of a vertical light conduit tube. The tube intercalated by a jacket tube, goes through the roof. The external reflecting sheet sends the collected light beams to a mirror, which is tilted on the vertical tube, the interior surface of the tube being capable of receiving and sending towards the interior of the room he reflected light beams received from said mirror. Another embodiment allows the user to regulate the external reflector operative tilting, as well as to rotate respect to a vertical axis to achieve for the best orientation relative to the sun.

    Abstract: A heatable insulated container specially suited for storing beverages and maintaining them cold or hot, behaves as a thermal container, maintaining the interior temperature for prolonged periods of time and at the same time has the advantage that it can be placed over an external hot plate or heat source to reheat its contents. The body of the container is defined by two lateral walls, separated by a vacuum and a heat resistant lower base which, in addition has a high thermal conductivity. The container includes a removable support base having thermal insulation, which is removable to allow fast reheating of the contents of the container without having to extract the contents from the container.
