Abstract: A method for producing an improved mask or device for killing or deactivating pathogens, such as viruses. A mask or device produced in accordance with the method for producing. A method for killing, or making inviable, viruses, such as airborne viruses. A pathogen-deactivating assembly having two zones of hydrophilic particulate matter for deactivating a pathogenic aerosol. The two hydrophilic particulate matter zones are separated by a hydrophobic fibrous partition.

Abstract: A flying vehicle comprising a wing ship body having a pair of wing spars secured thereto; and a plurality of hinged wing-rib assemblies disposed along each wing spar that allows the wings to be folded against the body of the flying vehicle. Fabric-coupling members connect wing fabric to the wing-rib assemblies. A method for folding or collapsing the wings of a wing-in-ground-effect wing ship comprising providing a wing-in-ground-effect wing ship having a pair of wings, and folding the wings toward and against the body of the wing-in-ground-effect wing ship.

Abstract: A radial-scissor lift assembly for a table top comprising an upper support member, a lower support member, and at least three scissor assemblies coupled to the upper and lower support members. Each scissor assembly includes a table-scissor member rotatably supporting a table wheel adapted for contacting an unattached table. Each scissor assembly further includes a floor-scissor member rotatably supporting a floor wheel adapted for contacting a surface supporting the radial-scissor lift assembly. The radial-scissor lift assembly has an actuator assembly coupled to the lower support member and to the upper support member for moving the scissor assemblies. A method for lowering a table top comprising disposing a table top on at least three table rollers, and rolling the table rollers along the bottom on the table top and away from the center of the table top to cause the table top to be lowered.
