Patent number: 11384516Abstract: A water saving apparatus for use in a shower stall that has shower walls and a handheld shower head includes a basin having a rear wall, two side walls, a front wall, a bottom wall, and a top wall. All of the walls defines an internal volume. The front wall is open to accept the handheld shower head therethrough. A drain pipe is fixed through the basin and directed to a collection point. In some embodiments, the water saving apparatus includes a side compartment for holding items such as shampoo bottles and the like. In use, with the basin mounted with the shower stall, the handheld shower head is placed into the internal volume to collect water exiting the handheld shower head and direct the water by gravity to the collection point until the water exiting the showerhead is at a desired temperature.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2021Date of Patent: July 12, 2022Inventors: Tom Alexander, M.

Patent number: 11190018Abstract: A mains DC power supply comprising a buffer amplifier, in which a battery is used to provide a reference voltage for the buffer amplifier. The battery voltage reference is disconnected from the buffer amplifier, to prevent excessive dissipation of the battery, when the mains AC supply is in the switched-off state. The use of a battery voltage reference produces a DC power supply, from the mains AC supply, with an ultra-low level of subsonic and audio frequency noise.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2019Date of Patent: November 30, 2021Assignee: Quest Electronics LimitedInventor: Tom Alexander Paston Bacon

Patent number: 7293415Abstract: In a method for operating a gas turbine centre in the vicinity of the group nominal full-load conditions, the cooling of the working fluid before and/or during the compression is set in such a way that the respectively attainable full-load power is above the current power. Rapid power demands can therefore be rapidly satisfied by an increase in the turbine inlet temperature or by opening an adjustable inlet guide vane row, whereas the control of the cooling effect, which has a tendency to be more sluggish, is employed to adjust the full-load operating point.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2005Date of Patent: November 13, 2007Assignee: ALSTOM Technology LtdInventors: Jürgen Hoffmann, Tom Alexander Odin McKay, Nikolaus Herbert Kurz, Tobias Spitzmüller
