  • Publication number: 20240003591
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a decentralized system (1) for providing an optimized environment in a room (26), the decentralized system comprising a balanced ventilation system (2) and a fluid system (3) both arranged in a housing (4). The decentralized system comprises a compressor (22) which is suspended by three or more springs (31) attached to the compressor at a horizontal plane at the compressor's center of gravity or less than 20% of the compressor's length above or below the compressor's center of gravity.

  • Patent number: 11274841
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a decentralized hybrid ventilation. The ventilation system comprises a housing having an inlet channel and an outlet channel. A first fan is arranged in the inlet channel for providing an airflow into the room and a second fan is arranged in the outlet channel for providing an airflow out of the room. A heat exchanger and filters are arranged in said channels for exchanging heat between and for filtrating air flowing into the room and air flowing out of the room. Furthermore, the ventilation system comprises a first and a second service door each providing, when open, an opening between the room and one of said channels to diverge the airflow from primarily flowing through the air filters and/or heat exchanger. The ventilation system also comprises a control system configured for switching between different modes of operations.

  • Publication number: 20200284466
    Abstract: The present invention provides a rain-resistant vent. The vent comprises a support frame having an inner perimeter; a set of blades arranged in an array, a first end of each blade being attached to a corresponding first part of the frame, a second end of each blade being attached to a corresponding second part of the frame, a first substantially flat portion forming an initial part of a cross-section of each blade, and the first substantially flat portion is followed by a ridge or valley portion, and at the first end of each blade the first substantially flat portion is at least partly separated from the inner perimeter by an opening allowing water to drain from the first substantially flat portion onto the inner perimeter. A vent kit is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20180225703
    Abstract: A method of generating a synthetic content feed includes receiving a request to display a synthetic content feed for a class of users of a social networking system, identifying a first user and a second user based on profile data for the first user and second user in the social networking system, constructing a first post of synthetic content feed representative of a first post in the content feed of the first user, constructing a second post of synthetic content feed representative of a second post in the content feed of the second user, and providing the synthetic content feed for display.

  • Publication number: 20180038612
    Abstract: A system for supplying air under the ceiling of a room comprising a pair of air inlet openings arranged side by side and configured to supply a pair of air streams into the room along the ceiling. The pair of air inlet openings are controllable to assume a first configuration where the supplied pair of air streams have first air stream directions spanning a first span angle and form a first angle with the ceiling, and the pair of air streams are substantially distinct air streams; and a second configuration where the supplied pair of air streams have second air stream directions spanning a second span angle smaller than the first span angle and form a second angle with the ceiling and are directed lower than in the first configuration, and the pair of air streams combine to form a combined air stream.

  • Patent number: 9728667
    Abstract: A device that detects single optical and radiation events and that provides improved blue detection efficiency and lower dark currents than prior silicon SSPM devices. The sensing element of the devices is a photodiode that may be used to provide single photon detection through the process of generating a self-sustained avalanche. The type of diode is called a Geiger photodiode or signal photon-counting avalanche diode. A CMOS photodiode can be fabricated using a “buried” doping layer for the P-N junction, where the high doping concentration and P-N junction is deep beneath the surface, and the doping concentration at the surface of the diode may be low. The use of a buried layer with a high doping concentration compared to the near surface layer of the primary P-N junction allows for the electric field of the depletion region to extend up near the surface of the diode. With a low doping concentration through the bulk of the diode, the induced bulk defects are limited, which may reduce the dark current.

  • Patent number: 9561892
    Abstract: An airtight enclosure comprising a pair of enclosure shells each having a pair of first edges and a pair of second edges extending transversely to the first direction. The first edges are spaced apart by a distance corresponding to the length of the second edges, the second edges are spaced apart by a distance corresponding to the length of the first edges, and the first edges have complementary assemblages for assembling first edges of the enclosure shells, and at least one of the second edges has a groove for accommodating a resilient sealing member in sealing contact with a second edge of the other one of the enclosure shells so that mating edges of each pair of second edge portions allow being assembled within a range of relative positions transverse to their longitudinal direction with the resilient seal or gasket in sealing contact with the mating edges.
