59results about How to "Sufficient air flow" patented technology

This application relates to ventilation systems, more particularly to roof ventilation systems that help to protect buildings against fires. The roof vent has an ember impedance structure that impedes the entry of flames and embers or other floating burning materials while still permitting sufficient air flow to adequately ventilate a building. Several configurations of vents employing baffle members and fire-resistant mesh material are described, which can substantially prevent the ingress of floating embers and flames.

Provided is an electronic apparatus capable of also supplying sufficient air flow to a heat generating device other than the heat sink. An electronic apparatus includes: a cooling unit (10) including a heat sink (13), and a cooling fan (15) for generating air flow for receiving heat of the heat sink (13); an upper wall member (40) connected to the cooling unit (10) so as to form an outer wall defining an air passage continuous with the cooling unit (10); and a power circuit (17) arranged in the air passage and serving as an object to be cooled.

The present invention provides an air flow measuring device comprising a housing with a sub-passage having a inlet and a outlet for air flow formed in the housing, the sub-passage further having a predefined curvature with a maximum downstream point and a flow measuring element located in the sub-passage at a position at least further downstream from the point.

Method for feeding in and for handling waste material in the channel section of a pneumatic wastes conveying system, in which method waste material or recycleable material is fed into a feed-in container (10) from the input aperture (2) of at least two input points (1) of a pneumatic pipe transport system for material and onwards into the channel section (20, 21, 22) between the feed-in container and the material conveying pipe (100), from where the material is conveyed along with the transporting air via the material conveying pipe (100) to the delivery end of the pneumatic material conveying system, where the material is separated from the transporting air. In the method the channel section (20(II), 20(III), 20(IV) . . . (22(II), (22(III), 22(IV)) of at least one second input point is connected to the channel section (20(I), 21(I), 22(I)) of one first input point between the input point (1) and an impeding means (30, 30'), in that in the method at least a part of the material (w1, w2, w3, w4) fed in is acted upon by the combined effect of suction and replacement air in the channel section (20(I), 21(I), 22(I) . . . (20(IV), 21(IV), 22(IV)) by bringing about compression in size in at least a part of the material (w1, w2, w3, w4) being conveyed, by means of an impediment (30) arranged between the conveying pipe (100) and the material (w1, w2, w3, w4) to be handled, or against the impediment, before transportation of the material to the delivery end of the pneumatic transport system for wastes.

A device for handling a fluid includes a corona discharge device and an electric power supply. The corona discharge device includes at least one corona discharge electrode and at least one collector electrode positioned proximate each other so as to provide a total inter-electrode capacitance within a predetermined range. The electric power supply is connected to supply an electric power signal to said corona discharge and collector electrodes so as to cause a corona current to flow between the corona discharge and collector electrodes. An amplitude of an alternating component of the voltage of the electric power signal generated is no greater than one-tenth that of an amplitude of a constant component of the voltage of the electric power signal. The alternating component of the voltage is of such amplitude and frequency that a ratio of an amplitude of the alternating component of the highest harmonic of the voltage divided by an amplitude of the constant component of said voltage being considerably less than that of a ratio of an amplitude of the highest harmonic of the alternating component of the corona current divided by an amplitude of the constant component of the corona current, i.e., (Vac / Vdc)≦(Iac / Idc).

A multi-rotor blower fan assembly for a cotton picker utilizes a plurality of separate fan enclosures each containing a fan for supplying an individual air flow to a picker unit of the picker, the fans being mounted on a common shaft for rotation therewith, with a unitary removable or openable cover or hood covering access openings of the fan enclosures. One or more of the fan assemblies can be mounted on the picker, for instance, on an existing platform on the picker chassis just rearward of the operator cab, in end-to-end relation, and rotatably driven using a common drive.
