A nasal dilator includes a contact pad attachable to a user's facial region below the user's eye and outboard from the user's nose. A tugging device is coupled with the contact pad and urges the contact pad in a direction away from the user's nose. With this structure, effective dilation of the nasal passages can be achieved in a comfortable manner. The dilator may also be incorporated into a CPAP mask and/or form part of an automated control system.

The light-shielding heat-dissipating mask comprises a plurality of metal sheets which are positioned at the air vent for dissipating the heat generated by the light source and decreasing the possibility of the light emitted form the light source escaping out of the air vent.

A blowerless heat exchanger apparatus based on micro-jet entrainment is disclosed. The heat exchanger apparatus incorporates a number of fins regularly spaced apart from each other and parallel to each other, thus letting air currents flow in the space defined between them. A dense array of micro-jet nozzles can be fabricated on the fins surface pointing to the flow direction of the air movement in order to induce increase airflow. The air from an air compressor delivers sufficient airflow on the fins surface utilizing micro-jets entrainment. The micro-jet entrainment confirms strong turbulent around the micro-jets and suggests significant heat transfer enhancement. The turbulence from the micro-jets enhance the heat transfer coefficient, potentially by an order of magnitude, therefore allowing much larger fin spacing and leads to huge reduction of flow resistance and overall power consumption.

Provided herein are systems and methods directed to using renewable energy sources with hot water heating systems.

The invention discloses a blank pre-upsetting forming die and a blank pre-upsetting forming method, and belongs to the technical field of material forging. The blank pre-upsetting forming die is firstly designed, a cylindrical blank with a high height-diameter ratio is changed into a blank of which the two ends are frustum-shaped and which is low in height-diameter ratio, and a flat anvil upsetting technology is carried out. For an original blank with a high height-diameter ratio, the original blank is pre-upset by adopting the method in the upsetting forming process to form a cylindrical structure of which the two ends are frustum-shaped; as a contact area between the blank and the die is small, the die slightly hinders the flow of metal on the end part of the blank, and a hard deformation area does not exist, the blank difficultly forms a drum type in the later upsetting process, the deformation is uniform, and the upsetting effect is good. The invention provides a good preprocessing method for upsetting and forming the cylindrical blank with the high height-diameter ratio.

The invention relates to a filter element for filtering fluid for a motor or gearing, comprising a first filter medium which is arranged in a cylindrical way, with the fluid impinging in a perpendicular way on the circumferential surface of the first medium for filtering in an associated filter apparatus, then penetrating and passing through the same. The filter element comprises a second filter medium with a filter density differing from the first filter medium, the first filter medium and the second filter medium being stacked upon each other as filter layers and being jointly wound in a spiral manner. A desired purity of the fluid can thus be achieved more quickly than in filter elements which exclusively allow a radial passage of the fluid through the filter elements. The spiral configuration also achieves a higher dirt absorption capacity.

A cationic copolymer represented by the following formula (I) has a viscosity average molecular weight in a range from 2 million to 10 million. In the cationic copolymer, the mole fractions of three structural units corresponding to three monomers are as follows: x being in a range from 0.01 to 20%, y being in a range from 0 to 15%, and z=1−x−y. When used in the construction of leaking stoppage in an oil well, a cationic chemical lost circulation additive prepared with the cationic copolymer is mixed with an anionic drilling fluid in a section of the wellbore where lost circulation occurs. Then neutral reaction and cross linking reaction occur, so that the viscosity of the resulting mixture rapidly increases to form a space grid structure. This blocks off the leakage path, and thus effects on efficient leaking stoppage in a short time period.

The side profile of a hard drive assembly may be configured with one or more open areas to allow cooling air to pass side-to-side across the hard drive assembly through a lateral flow channel provided by a cavity defined in the base portion of the hard drive assembly.

There is disclosed a flow sensor arrangement, comprising a main channel (1) for conveying a fluid, a bypass (2) connected to the main channel (1) for conveying a portion of the fluid supplied in the main channel (1), and a flow sensor (6) for measuring a flow of the fluid portion in the bypass (2). The bypass (2) branches off from the main channel (1) at an angle (α) of less than 90 degrees between an inlet section (21) of the bypass (2) and a supply section (11) of the main channel (1). By such design means, particles can be prevented from entering the bypass (2) by this adversely affecting the measurements.

The invention discloses a curved pipe type vortex reduction system with a high-radius outlet, and relates to aero-engines. The curved pipe type vortex reduction system comprises a chuck and a plurality of curved vortex reducing pipes. A plurality of curved vortex reducing pipes are uniformly arranged in the circumferential direction of the chuck and are coaxial with compressor discs on the two sides, the curved vortex reducing pipes are the same in structure and mounting radius, each curved vortex reducing pipe is provided with a curved vortex reducing pipe inlet and a curved vortex reducing pipe outlet, and the inlet of each curved vortex reducing pipe faces the airflow direction, so that pressure loss caused when the airflow is separated at the inlet of the vortex reducing pipe to form avortex is reduced, and the outlet position of each curved vortex reducing pipe rotates reversely, so that the circumferential speed of the airflow is limited, the development of free vortexes is inhibited, and the flow obstruction is reduced. Therefore, according to the curved pipe type vortex reduction system with the high-radius outlet, aerodynamic characteristics are fully considered, free vortex development in the radial inflow disc cavity is restrained, meanwhile, dissipation, caused by turning, of airflow is reduced, and pressure loss in the system is reduced.
