Abstract: Suspension bands, helmet systems, and/or the like are provided. In some embodiments, a suspension band includes: a plurality of knitted loop structures; and a plurality of knitted inlay structures, wherein the plurality of knitted inlay structures is inserted as a weft inlay stitch on, beneath, or within the plurality of knitted loop structures. In some embodiments, the suspension band includes one or more inlay sections and a reinforcement section; a greater portion of the plurality of knitted loop structures are disposed on, beneath, or within the reinforcement section than are disposed on, beneath, or within the one or more inlay sections. In some embodiments, the one or more inlay sections include a first inlay section and a second inlay section, wherein the first inlay section is disposed on a first side of the reinforcement section and the second inlay section is disposed on a second side of the reinforcement section.

Abstract: Lumber sorting systems and methods that use adaptive lumber management to tailor the distribution of lumber to improve the yield and aesthetic properties of a product are disclosed. An adaptive lumber management system in accordance with the present disclosure may comprise a lumber scanner configured to record one or more characteristics of each board and create a data file for each board comprising information regarding the characteristic of the board. A processor may be configured to determine a target tray for each board based on the data files. The processor may be further configured to generate at least one mapping. The system may further comprise a sorting mechanism configured to sort the plurality of boards into their respective target trays and at least one tipple configured to select each board or the plurality of boards from the plurality of trays according to the at least one mapping.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a burner. At least one first passage, at least one second passage and a mixing chamber are formed in the burner, and the mixing chamber is respectively connected to an outlet of the first passage and an outlet of the second passage, so that a first fluid and a second fluid are mixed in the mixing chamber to form a fluid mixture; wherein the burner includes a nozzle, and at least one through passage fluidly connected to the mixing chamber is formed in the nozzle, so that the fluid mixture flows out from the at least one through passage, and wherein the sum of the sectional areas of the at least one through passage is smaller than the sectional area of the mixing chamber.

Abstract: A burner comprising least one first passage and at least one second passage are formed in the burner, the at least one first passage and the at least one second passage are arranged such that a first fluid from an outlet of the at least one first passage and a second fluid from an outlet of the at least one second passage are mixed with each other, and the at least one first passage is configured to cause the first fluid to produce a rotational flow in a first rotation direction, and/or, the at least one second passage is configured to cause the second fluid to produce a rotational flow in a second rotation direction.

Abstract: A system in package (SiP) with an air cavity is disclosed. In one aspect, a technique to bond a lid over the air cavity that reduces the risk of cavity integrity failure is provided. More specifically, a metal ring is provided that conforms to or is congruent to a shape of a lower lip of the lid. A dielectric material covers the metal ring, and a low modulus epoxy is used to bind the lower lip of the lid to the dielectric material. The lid and metal ring may have comparable thermal coefficients, which, when coupled with the low modulus epoxy, reduces chance of gross failure of the cavity.
