  • Publication number: 20230231167
    Abstract: An apparatus for splitting the power of fuel cell systems in a vehicle comprises: a first fuel cell system and at least one further fuel cell system, which are configured to convert hydrogen and oxygen into water in order to generate electrical energy therefrom, and a controller unit, which is configured to actuate the first fuel cell system and the further fuel cell system with an electrical signal. The apparatus is configured to actuate the first fuel cell system and the further fuel cell system with the electrical signal in time offset fashion.

  • Publication number: 20220124251
    Abstract: A blind spot monitoring device includes a housing, a chipset, a power source, a plurality of focused-beam illuminating units, a camera unit, and at least one sensor. The chipset is internally mounted within the housing, and the power source is integrated onto the housing. The plurality of focused-beam illuminating units is mounted onto the housing and functions a spotlight for the camera unit that is mounted onto the housing. The sensor is mounted onto the housing and continuously monitor the surveillances area. The chipset, the plurality of focused-beam illuminating units, the camera unit, and the sensor are electrically connected to the power source so that the blind spot monitoring device can be powered from the power source. The plurality of focused-beam illuminating units, the camera unit, and the sensor are electronically connected to the chipset so that the blind spot monitoring device can be programed and operated.

  • Publication number: 20210161850
    Abstract: The present invention demonstrates the therapeutic use of ketone esters for seizure disorders, Alzheimer's disease and malignant brain cancer, which are associated with metabolic dysregulation. The administration of ketone esters resulted therapeutic ketosis and neuroprotection against seizures resulting from CNS oxygen toxicity. Supplemental ketones were also found to reduce superoxide production in cultured cortex neurons exposed to hyperbaric oxygen and A?-42, and to decrease proliferation and viability in U87 glioma cells. These observations support the therapeutic effect of ketones for seizure disorders, Alzheimer's disease and malignant brain cancer. The ketone esters may be derived from acetoacetate and can include R,S-1,3-butanediol acetoacetate monoester, R,S-1,3-butanediol acetoacetate diester, or a combination of the two.

  • Patent number: 10792259
    Abstract: ?-hydroxy butyric acid in combination with ?-hydroxybutyrate salts are useful to induce ketosis, achieving blood ketone levels of (0.5-6.0 mmol/L), with or without dietary restriction, and without inducing harmfully high mineral loads in the blood. The combination of ?-hydroxy butyric acid and salt results in substantial improvements in metabolic bookmakers related to insulin resistance, diabetes, weight loss, and physical performance & endurance in a short period of time. Further, use of these supplements to achieve ketosis yields a significant elevation of blood ketones and reduction of blood glucose levels. These acid/salt mixtures are also useful for suppressing appetite, preventing epileptic seizures, and treating cancer.

  • Publication number: 20200268701
    Abstract: Beta-hydroxybutyrate mineral salts in combination with medium chain fatty acids or an ester thereof such as medium chain triglycerides were used to induce ketosis, achieving blood ketone levels of (2-7 mmol/L), with or without dietary restriction. The combination results in substantial improvements in metabolic biomarkers related to insulin resistance, diabetes, weight loss, and physical performance in a short period of time. Further, use of these supplements to achieve ketosis yields a significant elevation of blood ketones and reduction of blood glucose levels. Use of these substances does not adversely affect lipid profiles. By initiating rapid ketosis and accelerating the rate of ketoadaptation, this invention is useful for the avoidance of glucose withdrawal symptoms commonly experienced by individuals initiating a ketogenic diet, and minimizes the loss of lean body mass during dietary restriction.
