  • REINFORCED TUBES
    Publication number: 20240198025
    Abstract: A tracheostomy tube (1) has a shaft (10) with a neck flange (17) dividing the shaft into a patient end (18) and a machine end (19). The shaft is of a silicone material reinforced by a coil (30) embedded within it. The coil (30) comprises multiple closed loops (32) that are longer along the patient end portion than the machine end portion such that the closed ends of the loops contact one another along the machine end portion for maximum strength but leave a longitudinal gap (33) along the patient end portion. An inflation line (14) extends within the wall of the shaft along the gap (33) along the patient end portion (18) and extends externally of the shaft on the machine side of the neck flange (17). The patient end of the inflation line opens into an inflatable sealing cuff (13) extending around the shaft close to the patient end.

  • Architecture to Illuminate a Display Panel
    Publication number: 20240201498
    Abstract: A system comprising an illumination system to direct light from one or more light sources to a limiting output pupil of a projection optomechanical system, a liquid crystal on silicon display panel (LCOS) to modulate the light from the projection optomechanical system and to direct the modulated light back toward the projection optomechanical system, and an in-coupler to a combiner waveguide to receive the modulated light from the LCOS, after it passes through the projection optomechanical system. The system in one embodiment is designed so that the light that passes through the projection optomechanical system from the illumination system lands on the LCOS within the limiting output pupil of the projection optomechanical system.

  • ROLLUP DOOR TENSION DEVICE
    Publication number: 20240200403
    Abstract: The torsion spring is disposed around an axle/shaft and fixed to the axle/shaft at one end, such that the torsion spring rotates with the door drum and fixed to a spring plate as a stationary structure at the other end. The spring plate does not rotate while the torsion spring rotates. The torsional forces created in the spring by the rotation of the door drum provides a variable torque which counteracts the weight of the flexible door. As the flexible door is lowered, the torsional forces developed in the spring pull in the opposite direction of the travel of the flexible door. The amount of tension resulting from the torsional forces generated in the torsion spring determines the performance characteristics of the flexible door.

  • ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM AND ALUMINA CALCINATION APPLICATIONS
    Publication number: 20240200470
    Abstract: An energy storage system (TES) converts variable renewable electricity (VRE) to continuous heat at over 1000° C. Intermittent electrical energy heats a solid medium. Heat from the solid medium is delivered continuously on demand. Heat delivery via flowing gas establishes a thermocline which maintains high outlet temperature throughout discharge. The delivered heat which may be used for processes including power generation and cogeneration. In one application, the TES provides higher-temperature heat through non-combustible fluid to an alumina calcination system used to remove impurities or volatile substances and/or to incur thermal decomposition to a desired product.
