  • Patent number: 10881053
    Abstract: The invention relates to a cooling and condensation device (10) of a greenhouse (1), preferably of a plastic film greenhouse, comprising at least one condenser (11) located in the greenhouse (1). The exterior (21) of the wall of said condenser is in contact with the air in the greenhouse (1) to be cooled and a cooling medium is applied to the interior (22) of the wall. According to the invention, the at least one condenser (11) is designed as a film tube that can be folded and consists, for example, of hollow articles (12), produced of a film material that can be folded, and stringed together, the tubular condenser (11) being deployable from a folded storage form to an elongated operating form.

  • Patent number: 10507887
    Abstract: The invention relates to a drive unit for fitting or retrofitting a two-wheeled vehicle (1), preferably a bicycle, having an electric motor which is designed as a disc motor (10), comprising a rotor disc (11) having permanent magnets (12) and an annular stator (13) with windings, which generate an electrical alternating field for driving the rotor disc (11), wherein the rotor disc (11) can be fastened non-rotatably to a receptacle (6) on the front or rear wheel of the two-wheeled vehicle (1) and the annular stator (13) can be fastened to a frame part (4, 5) of the two-wheeled vehicle (1). For tool-free dismantling the annular stator (13) can be unfolded in the circumferential direction and can be removed or pulled off from the rotor disc (11).

  • Patent number: 10239767
    Abstract: The invention relates to a portable, solar-thermal device for the treatment of drinking water from waste water, comprising an evaporation container that accommodates the waste water, a condensation apparatus having a flow connection to the evaporation container, and a separator arranged between the evaporation container and the condensation apparatus for separating and leading away the condensate obtained in the condensation apparatus. According to the invention, the separator has passage openings for the transfer of water vapor into the condensation apparatus, which is arranged on the top side of the device in the operating position of the device, and a drain opening for the condensate arising in the condensation apparatus, which drain opening can be connected to a collecting container, wherein the evaporation container, which is arranged on the bottom side of the separator, is designed as a flexible film bag.

  • Publication number: 20120267230
    Abstract: The invention concerns a portable solar-thermal device (1) for the production of fresh water from sewage water or salt water. The device is characterised in that it has a closed fluid circuit (2) made of connected pipe or hose elements with a sewage water supply (3) and a fresh water runoff (4) with the fluid circuit (2) having a tilted heating section (5) essentially aligned normally to the sun irradiation (S) for heating and vaporisation of the sewage water. Connected to this is an essentially vertically aligned condensation section (6) for condensation of the fresh water and heating of the sewage water, and a storage section (7) designed as base area for the condensed fresh water. The heating section (5) of the fluid circuit (2) is characterised by a solar collector (10) for concentration of the thermal energy of sun irradiation (S) on a vaporisation area inside the heating section (5).
