A microwave plasma torch providing two laminar flows is described. Two laminar flows are created using a set of at least three concentric, staggered dielectric tubes connected to a pressurized gas source. An inner laminar flow entrains injected particles entering the plasma. An outer laminar flow creates a sheath around the plasma and prevents it from attaching to the walls of the plasma torch. The entry point of the gas source is designed to ensure laminar flow for both the entrainment of the particles and for the shielding of the plasma plume. The uniform processing conditions results in uniform particles and a homogenous materials distribution. This enables a final product with improved thermal properties, improved corrosion and wear resistance and a higher tolerance to interface stresses. The microwave plasma torch can be used for producing nanomaterial powder and for spray coating materials onto various substrates.

The invention discloses a chafing dish provided with a lifting filtering tray. The chafing dish comprises a chafing dish body, a filtering tray and a lifting mechanism, wherein the diameter of the filtering tray is smaller than that of the chafing dish body; the lifting mechanism is in supporting fit with a base plate of the chafing dish body; and the filtering tray is connected with the lifting mechanism.

After the filtering tray is lifted up, well-cooked food materials are separated from boiling soup water and are clear at a glance. The chafing dish not only can reduce a high temperature of the food materials but also can keep an appropriate low temperature to prevent high-temperature foods from scalding oral cavities and gullets, and can also prevent certain food materials from being over-boiled.

A lateral displacement shock absorbing material includes a material consisting of a plurality of elongated tubular impact absorbing members, each having an axis of elongation. The axes of elongation of the respective tubular members are parallel to one another. The tubular members are retained with their axes in parallel relation by virtue of webbing, laterally extending from the sides of each tubular member, and interconnecting them together.
