Abstract: An air accelerator and air cooler apparatus developed for use in all internal combustion engines includes a conical structure and a perforated surface with angled directions.

Abstract: An orbital knife including a support structure; a yoke rotatably attached to the support structure having a yoke hub and a plurality of yoke arms; one or more rotatable knife rolls connected to at least one of the plurality of yoke arms; one or more blades attached to each of the one or more knife rolls; one or more sun pulleys rotatably attached to the support structure; an anvil roll rotatably attached to the support structure; and one or more planet pulleys wherein (1) each knife roll has attached thereto at least one planet pulley, (2) each planet pulley is joined via a drive belt with one of the one or more sun pulleys wherein rotation of the sun pulley causes rotation of the planet pulley effectuated by the force imparted by the drive belt.

Abstract: An orbital knife including a support structure; a yoke rotatably attached to the support structure having a yoke hub and a plurality of yoke arms; one or more rotatable knife rolls connected to at least two of the plurality of yoke arms; one or more blades attached to each of the one or more knife rolls; one or more sun gears rotatably attached to the support structure; an anvil roll rotatably attached to the support structure; one or more idler gears wherein each such idler gear is mated with one of the one or more sun gears; and one or more planet gears wherein each knife roll has rotatably attached thereto at least one planet gear and each planet gear is mated with one of the one or more idler gears, with the sun gear driving the idler gear which in turn drives the planet gear.

Abstract: An orbital knife including a support structure; a yoke rotatably attached to the support structure constituting a yoke hub and a plurality of yoke arms; one or more rotatable knife rolls securely connected to at least one of the plurality of yoke arms; one or more blades attached to each of the one or more knife rolls and including a cutting element; one or more sun gears rotatably attached to the support structure; an anvil roll rotatably attached to the support structure; and one or more planet gears wherein each knife roll has rotatably attached thereto at least one planet gear and each planet gear is mated with a sun gear.

Abstract: The disclosure concerns a rotary cutting apparatus having a frame and a die roll defining a first longitudinal axis and having a cutting member. The die roll is rotatably connected with the frame and configured to rotate about the first longitudinal axis. The rotary cutting apparatus further has a bearer ring connected with the die roll and an anvil roll defining a second longitudinal axis and having an outer radial surface. The anvil roll is rotatably connected with the frame and is configured to rotate about the second longitudinal axis. The bearer ring of the die roll is in contact with the outer radial surface. The anvil roll may be supported by at least one cam follower. The anvil roll may be axially removable from the frame via lateral translation along the second longitudinal axis.
