Electric waffle maker or steak grill

An electric scone machine or steak machine comprises hinge-connected upper and lower bakeware bodies (1, 2). The upper and lower bakeware bodies (1, 2) consist of upper and lower metal housings (101, 201) and upper and lower heating plates (102, 202). The upper and lower heating plates (102, 202) are correspondingly mounted in the upper and lower metal housings (101, 201), and are formed in a manner that baking hot surfaces (102-1, 202-1) of the upper and lower heating plates (102, 202) are opposite to each other when closed. Nonmetallic disk-shaped upper and lower heat insulating housings (103, 203) are disposed between the upper metal housing (101) and the upper heating plate (102) and between the lower metal housing (201) and the lower heating plate (202) respectively. The upper and lower heating plates (102, 202) are embedded in cavities (103-1, 203-1) of the upper and lower heat insulating housings (103, 203) respectively, and have opening edges (102-2, 202-2) borne on support surfaces (103-2a, 203-2a) of extended support platforms (103-2, 203-2) of openings of the upper and lower heat insulating housings (103, 203). Opening edges (101-1, 201-1) of the upper and lower metal housings (101, 201) abut against another end surfaces (103-2b, 203-2b) opposite to the support surfaces (103-2a, 203-2a) of the extended support platforms (103-2, 203-2). Outer end surfaces (103-2c, 203-2c) of the extended support platforms (103-2, 203-2) extend out of outer sides of outer end surfaces (101-2, 201-2, 102-3, 202-3) of the upper and lower metal housings (101, 201) and the upper and lower heating plates (102, 202). The electric scone machine or steak machine of this structure has a simple and reasonable structure, and has the desirable heat insulating effect.

Arrangement for determining the incidence angle of radiation and especially solar radiation

A device for determining the angle of incidence (alpha) of incident radiation and particularly sunlight (S) includes an array of light sensitive elements (10, 11 and 12) and a shadow mask (15) arranged above the elements. The shadow mask (15) includes a transparent region (14) and a non-transparent region (13) with a linear boundary or edge (16) therebetween. The linear edge (16) is arranged above the center of the linear array (9) of light sensitive elements (10, 11 and 12) so as to extend at a right angle relative to the linear direction of the array. To determine the angle of incidence (alpha), a coarse determination of the number of completely shaded light sensitive elements (10), and a fine determination of the fractional shading portion of the partially shaded light sensitive element (11) immediately adjacent to the completely shaded elements, are carried out. In this manner, a very high precision and accuracy can be achieved, exceeding the physical resolution determined by the size of the individual light sensitive elements, while still maintaining a simple and reliable construction. The angles of incidence (alpha) and (beta) in two perpendicular planes can be determined by providing a two-dimensional array of light sensitive elements in connection with a shadow mask having a two-dimensional checkerboard pattern of transparent regions and non-transparent regions.

Axial flux alternator with air gap maintaining arrangement

Axial flux alternator for a wind turbine arrangement includes at least one magnetic disk including magnets and at least one coil disk including electromagnetic assemblies. One or both disks are mounted to wind turbines such that adjacent disks rotate in opposite directions, or such that the magnets of a magnetic disk move relative to the electromagnetic assemblies of an adjacent coil disk which may move or be stationary, or vice versa. Between adjacent disks, rolling elements on one disk roll, slide or move on or against the surface of the opposite disk in order to fix and maintain air gaps between the magnets on a magnetic disk and magnetic cores of the electromagnetic assemblies on the coil disk, and thus enable continued motion and use of the alternator.

Closure device

A single-piece slider member (200) is provided for use with a closure device having interlocking fastening strips (108) disposed along opposing side walls (52, 53) of a storage container, such as a conventional plastic bag. The slider member (200) comprises a main body portion (210) which is adapted to be installed upon the interlocking fastening strips (108) and a door portion (240) which is hingedly attached to the main body portion (210) along a hinge portion (241) for movement between open and closed positions. When the main body portion (210) is installed upon the fastening strips (108), the hinge portion (241) is substantially perpendicular to the main body portion (210). The slider member (200) is also provided with a latching mechanism (280) which retains the door portion (240) in the closed position. During assembly, the main body portion (210) of the slider member (200) is installed upon the interlocking fastening strips (108) and then the door portion (240) is moved into the closed position to slidably attach the slider member (200) onto the interlocking fastening strips (108).

Fuel cell vehicle

A fuel cell vehicle is provided with a fuel cell stack and a vehicle body frame for mounting the fuel cell stack in a front box. The fuel cell stack and a frame member have portions overlapping with each other in a vehicle width direction in a plan view of the vehicle. A vehicle-forward end portion of the fuel cell stack is positioned closer to the rear of the vehicle than a vehicle-forward end portion of the frame member. A vehicle-rearward end portion of the fuel cell stack is positioned closer to the front of the vehicle than a vehicle-rearward end portion of the frame member.

Spring-loaded tube squeezing device

A device for squeezing various household collapsible tubes comprises two lever handles, two pintles, two torsional springs, a primary roller, and a secondary roller. The lever handles are held together by and are free to rotate about the two pintles, forming a double non-crossing class 1 lever arrangement. The rollers, held in gudgeons by snap fit, are also free to rotate. The primary roller is distinguished from the secondary roller by having a crank at one end. The torsional springs, anchored by the pintles, provide a torque which causes the two rollers to clamp together. Operation of the tube squeezing device proceeds by inserting the crimped end of a collapsible tube between the rollers and turning the crank, thereby turning the rollers so as to squeeze the tube flat and to push its contents toward the nozzle end. Insertion and extraction of the tube is effected most readily by applying a compressive force to the two lever handles, creating a gap between the rollers for the tube to easily pass through.
