  • Patent number: 9656200
    Abstract: The invention relates to a fabric filter system, having a first fabric filtering device in the form of elongated tubular fabric bag; a first gas tank for providing compressed gas; a first pulsing gas duct fluidly connected between the first fabric filtering device and the first gas tank through a first pulsing valve for cleaning the first fabric filtering device. The fabric filter system further includes a second gas tank for providing compressed gas. The second gas tank is fluidly connected with the first gas tank through a control valve. The first pulsing valve is opened to introduce the compressed gas into the first filtering device for cleaning when the control valve remains open. The control valve is closed after a predetermined time. A method for cleaning the fabric filter system is disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20170095696
    Abstract: This device is a balance board used for core exercise, balance training, and training for rotational motion applicable to various board sports. The invention consists of a board or deck upon which the user stands having the shape and contours of a traditional skateboard deck. On the underside of the board are three half spherical fulcrum points fixed at specific locations. The primary fulcrum point is the largest and is located in the center of the board. The additional two fulcrum points are smaller and are located one each at the nose and tail of the board. This orientation allows the user to spin freely on the board on a horizontal axis. Rotational motion is possible on any of the three fulcrum points depending on the user's ability.

  • Patent number: 9550259
    Abstract: A method for connecting a first component to a second component having a through hole includes the following steps: bringing the two components against one another and positioning them relative to one another, detecting the spatial position of the hole by a position detection electronic unit, positioning a connecting element at a location within the hole as a function of the spatial position of the hole or as a function of position data determined by the position detection electronic unit, connecting the connecting element to the first component, with the result that the connecting element projects into or through the hole, and clipping onto the connecting element a clip element which holds the two components together.

The end of the nozzle pipe is inserted between the side walls of the C-shaped profile. The plate is connected between the side walls of the C-shaped profile. A U-shaped pin defines a first and a second leg, wherein the first leg is inserted in holes of the side walls of the C-shaped profile. The first and the second leg rest on the nozzle pipe and embracing the nozzle pipe. The plate is at an angle (A) greater than 0° with a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the nozzle pipe. The second leg has a protrusion that rests against the plate.

  • Publication number: 20160229498
    Abstract: A universal bracket allowing secure attachment of accessories to paddleboards or similar watercraft. Said bracket consists of two identical assemblies of three components. The first is a rectangular plastic tube that rests on the top surface of the paddleboard. Said tube is open at each end and acts as a receiving tube for two smaller rectangular plastic tubes. The smaller tubes each having a molded hook on one end that attaches to the outer edges of the paddleboard. The width of the assembly is adjustable to accommodate varying paddleboard sizes. The adjustable nature is such that the outer tubes slide freely into the center tube and are locked in place by a removable pin. The pin locking system allows for customization and a variety of settings. The center receiving tube contains a mechanism for securing accessories that expand the capabilities of a paddleboard.

  • Publication number: 20140332702
    Abstract: A pulse valve arrangement includes a valve housing on which is fixed a control valve The valve housing includes a circular cylindrical portion with a valve member movably arranged therein. The valve chamber has an inlet adapted to be connected to a pressure medium source for allowing pressure medium to flow into the valve chamber and an outlet through which pressure medium flows out of the valve chamber. The control valve may be closed in which the outlet of the valve chamber is moved to a closing position blocking the flow of pressure medium, or may be opened in which the outlet of the valve chamber is moved to an opening position allowing a pulse of pressure medium therethrough. The valve member within the valve housing is freely displaceable within the circular cylindrical portion of the valve housing based on the pressure within the valve chamber as controlled by the control valve.

  • Patent number: 8268031
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a fabric filter system, which may be used for removing particulate matter from a gas, such as a combustion process gas. The filter system includes a fabric filter (3) which is placed in a filter compartment. From the filter, gas flows via a filter plenary space (5) to an outlet duct (7), where the gas exits. A flow control device controls the amount of air exiting through the outlet duct. The flow control device comprises a louver-type damper (17). This provides reliable and efficient control of the gas flow. A collar (21), connecting the plenary space (5) with the outlet duct (7), improves the gas flow into the duct.
