Patent number: 8950690Abstract: An anti entrapment fail safe drain having a drain cover for partially covering an influent opening; a pressurized supply line; and a nozzle assembly in communication with the pressurized supply line and mounted within a drain sump. The nozzle assembly is for directing a pressurized liquid in a pattern over a surface of the drain cover when the drain cover and the nozzle are immersed in the liquid such that a portion of the liquid above the pattern or objects suspended in standing liquid can not be pulled directly toward the drain cover through a drain inlet opening. The drain also has an effluent opening for connecting to the drain sump arranged such that the liquid flows into a pipe in a first direction. The pressurized supply line is arranged inside the pipe for returning the liquid to the nozzle assembly in a second direction opposite the first direction.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2010Date of Patent: February 10, 2015Inventor: Wayne Kraft

Patent number: 8776450Abstract: The present invention discloses a building roof structure formed by a skeleton, hollow assemblies, a waterproof layer and a heat insulation plate. The hollow assemblies are installed on the skeleton, the waterproof layer is paved on the hollow assemblies and the heat insulation plate is disposed above the waterproof layer. Hot air rising up inside the building and heat accumulated on the roof by being exposed to sun can all be circulated out through cooling spaces formed by the hollow assemblies, which achieves the cooling effect of natural air circulation to reduce temperature inside the building without using external fans or air drafting equipment. Therefore, the green building concept that saves energy and reduces CO2 emission is complied with, thereby improving the living quality of building.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2013Date of Patent: July 15, 2014Inventor: Men-Chyan Lee

Patent number: 8763374Abstract: An exhaust gas treatment device for a diesel engine capable of starting the generation of a combustible gas is provided. The device includes a combustible gas generator. A core member is fitted in the center portion of an annular wall to form an air-fuel mixing chamber between the inner peripheral surface of the annular wall and the outer peripheral surface of the core member. An air-fuel mixture gas in the air-fuel mixing chamber is adapted to be supplied from the end of the air-fuel mixing chamber to a combustible gas generating catalyst to a portion near the center thereof. A heater is used as the core member. The heat dissipating outer peripheral surface of the heater is exposed to the air-fuel mixing chamber. Heat is dissipated directly from the heat dissipating outer peripheral surface of the heater to the air-fuel mixing chamber when starting the generation of the combustible gas.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2011Date of Patent: July 1, 2014Assignee: KUBOTA CorporationInventors: Takashi Onishi, Keita Naito, Toshio Nakahira, Yoshikazu Takemoto

Patent number: 4143820Abstract: A temperature insensitive, low cost, pressure regulating and remotely flushable emitter for drip irrigation systems comprises a nodal body insertable into the wall of a pipe and having an end face aperture in which a deflectable resilient element responds to interior water pressure changes. The resilient element is deflectable normally to the plane of the end face, and provides at least one edge surface in facing, shearing relation to the end face aperture wall. In a first mode, one or more slit apertures decrease in area in response to increases in interior water pressure within a nominal operating range. When the pressure is raised further, however, the resilient element is deflected across the end face aperture wall, to define at least one slit aperture providing a low volume but high velocity flow which creates a flushing or cleaning action.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 1977Date of Patent: March 13, 1979Inventor: Elvin M. Bright, Sr.
