Disclosed are crankshaft, single-plate cam and beam mechanisms that provide significant improvements in performance for 2- & 4-stroke engines, compressors and pumps. These cost effective mechanisms include linkages with the new and improved use of pivoting arms that operate with a variety of cylinder arrangements. One embodiment of the crankshaft mechanism has its crankpin roller positioned within a novel yoke-arm. The cam mechanism uses a pair of centrally positioned parallel links that are connected to roller cam followers and single or diametrically-opposed pistons. A pair of laterally extending follower arms connects to the ends of the links to provide support and alignment for the piston rods. Between the reciprocating links, cam followers and follower arms is a rotating odd-lobe plate cam. A beam mechanism uses opposite-direction extending balancing beams that are connected to links, cam followers and piston rods.

A radiation source which can emit X-ray flux, UV-C flux and other forms of radiation uses electron beam current from a cathode array formed on the window through which the radiation will exit the source. The source can be made in formats which are compact or flat compared with prior art radiation sources. X-ray, UV-C and other radiative flux produced by the source can be used for such purposes as radiation imaging, sterilization, decontamination of biohazards, UV curing or photolithography.

A combustion chamber/supersonic nozzle assembly is cooled by an array of coolant channels in the wall of the assembly with coolant being fed to the assembly at the throat plane between the subsonic (convergent) and supersonic (divergent) sections. A minor portion of the coolant entering at the throat plane is directed to coolant channels in the supersonic section wall, while the remainder is directed to a complex arrangement of channels in the subsonic section wall. The latter arrangement includes an outer layer of wide axially oriented channels for delivery of coolant to, and removal from, an inner layer of smaller, circumferentially oriented channels that are adjacent to the hot gas and carry the bulk of the coolant load. The path of coolant travel through each inner channel is relatively short, lessening the pressure drop through those channels relative to coolant channel arrangements of the prior art.

The invention relates an electrostatic speaker system comprising—a high voltage switching power amplifier,—an extraction filter having an input coupled to an output of the high voltage switching amplifier, and—an electrostatic speaker element having a capacitive load and an input coupled to an output of the extraction filter. The combination of the extraction filter and capacitive load form a filter circuitry having at least a first filter stage and a second filter stage. The first filter stage comprising a RLC circuit having a resonant frequency ωO and a quality factor Q>½ and wherein the second filter stage being a low pass filter comprises at least one electrical element for damping a signal component at the resonant frequency of the RLC circuit at the output of the extraction filter.

The invention pertains to processes for separating gases, acid gas, hydrocarbons, air gases, or combinations thereof. The processes may employ using a liquid phase cloud point with or without subsequent liquid-liquid separation. In some embodiments membranes can be employed with reverse osmosis to regenerate a solvent and/or an antisolvent. In some embodiments thermal switching phase changes may be employed during absorption or desorption to facilitate separation.

A ring generator of a wind power installation is provided comprising a stator having a peripherally extending stator ring for receiving stator windings and a rotor mounted rotatably about an axis of rotation relative to the stator, wherein the stator ring has cooling passages for cooling the stator by an air flow. A ring generator of a wind power installation is also provided having a stator, a peripherally extending stator ring for receiving stator windings, a rotor mounted rotatably relative to the stator and a stator bell connected to the stator ring for providing a pressure chamber with an increased or reduced pressure for providing an air flow through and/or along the stator and/or rotor for cooling the ring generator, wherein the stator bell has at least one fan opening provided with a fan.

The fibrous material web is preformed in a web forming zone. At least one press is an elongated nip press that is elongated in direction of the web travel. This nip is positioned in a region where the dry matter content of the preformed fibrous material web that comes into the nip is less than or equal to about 15% and, preferably is less than or equal to about 12%. A method for treating a fibrous material web in a wet section of a machine for producing the fibrous material web. The wet section includes at least one press including an elongated nip, at least one press and the elongated nip are elongated in a web travel direction. Further, the elongated nip is positioned in a region of the machine where the dry matter content of the fibrous material web, as it enters the elongated nip, is less than or equal to about 15%. The method includes preforming the fibrous material web in a forming section of the machine, guiding the fibrous material web to the at least one elongated nip, and pressing the fibrous material web in the at least one elongated nip elongated nip.

The invention pertains to processes for separating water from air. The processes may employ using an LCST solution with or without subsequent reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, or ultrafiltration.

The invention relates to a method and a system for cooling torrefied material, including, applying water to the torrefied material to quench-cool the material and thereafter further cooling the torrefied material and at least part of the torrefaction gases released from the material in a common cooling device, such that components of the torrefaction gases condenses on the torrefied material within the common cooling device.

A fuel cell stack having stacked unit fuel cells, each having a pair of separators between which a membrane electrode assembly is provided, which includes an anode and a cathode. Each separator has protruding lines arranged vertically in a zigzag manner, which protrude in a direction going away from the membrane electrode assembly. A space between the anode and the protruding lines of the separator facing the anode is used as a fuel gas passage. A space between the cathode and the protruding lines of the separator facing the cathode is used as an oxidant gas passage. At least part of the separators are each arranged in close contact with another separator so that a coolant passage through which a coolant flows horizontally is formed between both separators. A lower area of the coolant passage has a larger flow resistance than that of an upper area thereof.
