Abstract: An air-powered auxiliary battery charging and battery-cooling system for electric vehicles is disclosed. The system includes a forward-facing air intake assembly configured to capture ram-air during vehicle motion and direct the airflow through intake ducts toward impellers housed in impeller enclosures. The impellers rotate and drive generator modules that produce supplemental electrical energy, which is conditioned to charge the vehicle's battery pack. Air exiting the impeller housings is routed through transition ducts that reshape the airflow from a circular to a rectangular profile before entering a distribution duct positioned adjacent to the battery pack. One or more heat-transfer members are disposed within the distribution duct to diffuse the airflow across the battery surface to remove heat and improve thermal stability. The airflow is released through an exhaust duct oriented toward the rear of the vehicle.

Abstract: A modular operating table comprises a support (10) and a base part (20) attached to the support (10), the base part (20) providing a first region of a support surface for a patient's body during surgery, the base part (20) comprising side bars (21) extending parallel to a longitudinal axis of the support surface in lateral edge regions of the support surface. A seat element (30) is attached to the base part (20), the seat element (30) providing a second region of the support surface, a width of the second region decreasing in a distal direction, symmetric to a central longitudinal axis of the support surface, the seat element (30) having at least two first connection elements for the distal attachment of functional components, the at least two first connection elements being arranged along main axes of the side bars. A first functional component (40.1, 40.2) comprising a generally triangular plate (42.1, 42.2) provides a third region of the support surface. The first functional component (40.1, 40.
