Abstract: A humidification system can include a heater base, a humidification chamber, and a breathing circuit. A cartridge can be removably coupled to the heater base. The cartridge can include various sensors, probes, sensor wire connectors, heater wire connectors, and/or other features. The cartridge can include features configured to mate with corresponding features on the humidification chamber and the heater base. The cartridge includes a memory, such as an EEPROM, or other suitable storage device. When the cartridge is installed on the heater base, the memory is electrically connected to a processor and/or memory of the heater base. Various models of cartridges can be produced for use with different humidification chambers, breathing circuits, and/or therapies. A connector can be configured to couple an inspiratory conduit to an outlet port of the humidification chamber. The connector can provide a pneumatic connection to the outlet port and an electrical connection to the cartridge.

Abstract: An aspect provides a computer-implemented method for processing computer code. The method comprises receiving a first editable code set. In response to a first signal the method processes the first editable code set into first executable code by a first compiler within a first code processing path generating the first executable code. In response to a second signal the method both processes the first editable code set into a second editable code set, and processes the second editable code set into second executable code by a second compiler within a second code processing path generating the second executable code.

Abstract: A multi-ring disc motor is revealed. The multi-ring disc motor includes a plurality of stator rings and a plurality of permanent magnets. The stator rings are disposed in a stator base and the permanent magnets are mounted on a plurality of circular ribs of a rotor base. The permanent magnets on the respective circular rib of the rotor base are corresponding to a coil on the stator ring in a respective circular groove of the stator base by the stator base and the rotor base connected to each other. Thereby high torque and high horsepower are generated by the stator rings on the stator base and the permanent magnets on the circular ribs of the rotor base. The power consumption is reduced effectively. Thus the battery life of vehicles such as cars is extended and this eliminates the needs to stop for charging.
