Abstract: A heat exchanger including a tube having inlet ends and outlet ends and defining a flow path therebetween. The tube can have a first section and a second section arranged at an angle with respect to the first section. Each of the first section and the second section can include a first subsection and a second subsection arranged at an angle with respect to the first subsection.

Abstract: A portable apparatus for treating polluted water by electrocoagulation. The apparatus comprising at least two electrodes (1,2). The apparatus also includes a housing (4), electrically isolated from the at least two electrodes (1,2), to which the at least two electrodes (1,2) are fixed spaced apart from one another. When the at least two second electrodes (1,2) are at least partly submerged in the polluted water and provided with an electrical potential, one of the at least two electrodes (2) is sacrificial so as to provide ions to the polluted water.

Abstract: A connection device, unit incorporating a connection device, method of connecting a unit to a pipe, method of using a connection device and method of passing a device along a pipeline are provided. In one embodiment, a connection device (5) is disclosed which includes a through aperture extending between a first end of the connection device and a second end of the connection device so as to receive a section of a pipe (1), a support element (7) provided around the through aperture and one or more inflatable elements (23) provided inside the support element and around the through aperture. Each inflatable element has an inlet for the introduction and/or removal of an inflating medium. Inflation of the inflatable elements causes the connection device to firmly grip and so become anchored on the pipe.

Abstract: A manually operated pump for a bicycle comprises two cylindrical members with a first cylindrical member slidable within a second cylindrical member. One end of the first cylindrical member is provided with a fitting to receive a saddle while one end of said second cylindrical member is provided with a foot stand assembly which comprises a foldable foot stand and a retractable air hose. The pump is designed to be received in the seat post of the bicycle frame and the two cylindrical members are arranged to be releasably connected together in a closed position.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a heat exchanger core, including providing a plurality of flat tubes having a plurality of flow channels therein, forming at least a portion of each of said flat tubes to define an arcuate tube cross-section, piercing a first and a second header to produce a series of slotted openings therein, assembling the first and second headers to first and second ends, respectively, of the plurality of tubes, and placing the assembled tubes and headers into an elevated temperature environment to cause a braze alloy cladding on either the tubes or the headers or the tubes and the headers to flow and form brazed joints between the tubes and headers. Forming the portion of each of said flat tubes to define the arcuate tube cross-section includes forming an arc extending between an air inlet side and an air outlet side of the tube.
