Abstract: A combined cycle power generation and storage system is shown. A liquid air energy storage system uses excess power to liquefy air and stores it in a liquid state. A combustion engine produces power by combustion of a carbon-based fuel along with an exhaust stream containing carbon dioxide. A heat recovery system exchanges heat from the exhaust stream to air from the liquid air storage system, and thereby produce a cooled exhaust stream and heated air. An air expansion machine recovers power by expansion of heated air from the heat recovery system. A separation system separates carbon dioxide from ambient air prior to liquefaction during operation of the liquid air energy storage system, and separates carbon dioxide from the cooled exhaust stream during operation of the combustion engine prior to emission of the cooled exhaust stream to atmosphere.

In Formula I, RW has a structure of Formula II, where at least two RE substituents are joined to form a 5- to 10-membered ring; each of X1 to X11 and Z1 to Z3 is C or N; M is Pd or Pt; each of moiety A, moiety B, moiety C, and moiety D is a ring or a polycyclic fused ring system; each of L1 and L2 is a direct bond or a linker; each substituent is hydrogen or a General Substituents defined herein; and any two substituents may be joined or fused to form a ring, Formulations, OLEDs, and consumer products containing the compound are also provided.

Abstract: A portable pet toilet comprising three layers; a surface layer designed such that a pet is encouraged to urinate upon it, a bottom layer (shield layer) designed to prevent urine from contaminating any floor material upon which it rests, and an intermediate layer designed to absorb and retain the amount of urine that can be expected to be excreted by the pet. The bottom layer is afforded with a means for securing the position of the other two layers while allowing all three layers to be formed into a compact roll to facilitate portability.

Abstract: For storage of storage media (22), a sleeve (10) having one or two storage pocket (20) formed between an optional substrate (16) and two cover plates (18). The sleeves (10) in turn may be mounted on a spine (12) having a plurality of vertebrae (56) connected by flexible hinges (60). The sleeves (10) mount on respective vertebrae (56) by slidable insertion of mounting slots (54) onto mounting tracks (58). The flexible hinges (60) then permit easy user access to and review of the storage media (22) contents of individual sleeves (10) in an intuitive roll-and-tumble manner. The sleeves (10) and the spine (12) may in turn also be stored in a clam-shell style case (88) or a wallet style case (108), or loose sleeves (10) may be stored in a tray (118).

Abstract: For storage of disc media (DM(18)) or associated literature (DML(20)), a sleeve (10) having two storage pockets (16) formed between two cover plates (14) and a substrate (12). The sleeves (10) may be mounted on a spine (48) having a plurality of vertebrate (50) connected by flexible hinges (55). The sleeves (10) and spine (48) may be stored in a clam-shell style case (66), or loose sleeves (10) may be stored in a tray (86). An alternate storage system (110) has a storage housing (112) and storage modules (114) each having an attachment mechanism (116). Each storage module (114) may have twosome combinations of DM pockets (168) or a generic pocket (170).

Abstract: A storage container (10) for storing, transporting and displaying various information and entertainment storage media, the container (10) including a floor panel (12) having a front edge (16) and a rear edge (17), and right and left edges (18, 19), a back wall (13) which attaches to the rear edge of the floor panel (17), left and right side panels (14, 15), which are attached to the left and right edges (18, 19) respectively of the floor panel (12), each side panel (14, 15) having a lower portion which terminates in a front foot (32) and the back wall (13) including a vertebra (50) which has a lower portion which terminates in a rear foot (52).

Abstract: A wallet style compact disc storage unit (10) includes an enclosing case (12) and an interior structure (14) adapted to releasably hold a plurality of compact discs (16). The enclosing case (12) includes a clamshell structure including a first shell member (22) and a second shell member (24), each having corresponding cushions (40,42), are connected by a living hinge (26) and releasably secured by a slide latch (28). The interior structure (14) includes an even plurality of disc receiving plates (56) formed in four plate modules (58) with each plate (56) being adapted to support one of the compact discs (16) in a releasable manner. Adjacent pairs of plates (56) are hingedly connected by alternating first hinges (104) and second hinges (106) to require accordion type folding of the respective plates (56).

Abstract: A storage device (10) adapted to store a plurality of compact disk containers, known as jewel boxes (11). The device (10) includes a hollow exterior frame (12) and an interior frame (28) which divides the interior into vertical columnar compartments (43, 44 and 45), each of which includes eight storage slots (50). Each of the compartments has an associated securing/release mechanism (60) which acts to restrain the jewel box (11) within the slot (50) and to release and eject it therefrom when pressure is applied to a release button (68). The device (10) is particulary adapted to store twenty four jewel boxes (11) in three columns, but is adaptable for other arrays and other rectangular solid objects.
