  • Patent number: 11703220
    Abstract: A portable vaporizer for heating a liquid-phase fuel. The vaporizer comprising a reservoir having a least one wall for containing a heat-conducting fluid within the reservoir. A heating tube extending into the reservoir such that the heating tube is in fluid contact with the heat-conducting fluid. The heating core has and inlet through which the liquid-phase fuel will flow and an outlet through which the vaporized liquid-phase fuel will flow. A heating core comprising an electric heating element placed within the reservoir to heat the heat-conducting fluid and vaporize the liquid-phase fuel passing through the heating tube.

  • Publication number: 20210041103
    Abstract: A vaporizer for heating a liquid-phase fuel, the vaporizer comprising a reservoir having a least one wall for containing a liquid and a heat-conducting fluid within the reservoir. A heating core extending into the reservoir such that the heating core is in fluid contact with the heat-conducting fluid and the heating core has and inlet through which the liquid-phase fuel will flow and an outlet through which the vaporized liquid-phase fuel will flow. A heating passage having at least one open end extending at least partially within the reservoir such that at least a portion of an exterior surface of the heating passage is in fluid contact with the heat-conducting fluid. A heat source communicating with the open end of the heating passage to heat the heating passage, the heat conducting fluid and the liquid-phase fuel within the heating core to vaporize the liquid-phase fuel within the heating core.

  • Patent number: 10094064
    Abstract: There is provided a collapsible drying rack for easy packing and transport. The drying rack in configurable between a non-operative compacted configuration to an operative deployed configuration where a plurality of arms extends outwardly of the body for drying operation. Reversible conversion of the rack from the non-operative configuration to the operative configuration is performed by actuation of a triggering assembly. Once deployed, each arm may be used for hanging wet items such as clothes or sport's equipment. The drying rack may be anchored to various types of support via a retainer assembly including one or more elements for clipping and/or hanging the drying rack to the support.

  • Publication number: 20060246520
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for determining or modulating the activity of immune and/or target cells in vitro, ex vivo or in vivo. The invention more specifically relates to methods and compositions for determining sensitivity of cells to the activity of ??T cells, as well as to the use of these compositions and methods for patient screening or selection, therapy improvement, compound selection, etc. The invention also provides compositions and kits suitable for carrying out these methods. The methods may be used in any mammalian subject, preferably any human subject that may benefit from ??T cell-mediated therapy, including patients with tumors, immune or infectious diseases.
