A gas chamber contains upper and lower chamber bodies forming a cavity, a heating chuck for a wafer, a remote gas source, and an exhaust unit. Gas is injected into the cavity through channels in an injector. Each channel has sections that are bent with respect to each other at a sufficient angle to substantially eliminate entering light rays entering the channel from exiting the channel without reflection. The channels have funnel-shaped nozzles at end points proximate to the chuck. The injector also has thermal expansion relief slots and small gaps between the injector and mating surfaces of the chamber and gas source. The temperature of the injector is controlled by a cooling liquid in cooling channels and electrical heaters in receptacles of the injector. The upper chamber body is funnel-shaped and curves downward at an end of the upper chamber body proximate to the chuck.

The present invention relates to compressed gas-operated firearms and more particularly to repeating gas cylinder pistols with conveyer feed of bullets for shooting. The pistol comprises a hollow pistol frame (1) made integral with a grip (3) and a trigger bow (50), a movable barrel (6) with a bullet bore (97), a load (12) and a mainspring (19) disposed on the barrel (6), a valve (57) installed in a gas chamber (110) inside a body (56), a gas cylinder (102) installed inside a rear hollow interior (104) of the grip (3), a magazine (27) installed in a front hollow interior (151) of the grip (3), separated from a rear hollow interior (104) by a partition (150), a striker-and-trigger mechanism installed inside the pistol frame (1) and on the trigger bow (50) and interacting with the movable barrel (6) and the magazine (27) for supplying bullets (246) and portions of gas from the gas cylinder (102) to the bullet bore (97) of the barrel (6), a mechanism for installing the gas cylinder (102), disposed below the gas cylinder (102) in the grip (3). In a hollow interior (4) of the pistol grip (1) a support (5) is installed, which serves as a base for the movable barrel (6) that moves along the support (5) under the action of the striker-and-trigger mechanism.

A bicycle can include a suspension system with a shock absorber. The shock absorber can have a sag position which can be adjustable. Sag refers to the amount of movement experienced by the suspension under a static load, such as that of the weight of a rider. Methods and systems to set sag can include at least one valve in fluid communication with a gas chamber of the shock absorber. In some embodiments, the at least one valve can be used to automatically set the sag position based on an individual's weight and riding position.

An exhalation valve (10) is disclosed for use with an exhalation port (14) of a respiratory circuit. The exhalation valve comprises a hermetically sealed gas chamber (20,120), a gas inlet (22,122) for supplying gas to the gas chamber, and a membrane (24,124) of flexible material that defines at least part of a wall of the gas chamber. The membrane is deformable by a change in the pressure differential between the gas within the gas chamber and the gas within the exhalation port between an inoperative configuration and an operative configuration in which the membrane restricts the flow of gas from the exhalation port to a greater extent than in said inoperative configuration. The membrane is inherently planar but is mounted within the exhalation valve such that deformation of the membrane to its operative configuration occurs substantially without increase of the surface area of the membrane.

A system and method for cooling back to back electronic displays. Transparent first and second gas chambers are co-existive with the front display surfaces of the first and second electronic displays. A closed loop of isolated gas enters the first and second gas chambers and contacts the front surfaces of the electronic displays, where it may extract heat from the front display surfaces. The isolated gas is then directed into a cooling chamber where it is cooled and re-introduced into the first and second gas chambers. Fans may be used to propel the isolated gas through the cooling chamber and the first and second gas chambers. The circulating gas removes heat directly from the electronic display surfaces. The isolated gas is transparent or at least semi-transparent to ensure that the image quality of the electronic displays is minimally impacted.

Disclosed is an accumulator comprising a cylindrical shell including a cylindrical portion, a partitioning member for partitioning the interior of the shell into a hydraulic chamber and a gas chamber, and a port including a hydraulic fluid flow path for communicating the exterior of the shell and the hydraulic chamber. The variation of the pressure of a hydraulic fluid flowing into the hydraulic chamber is accommodated by expansion and compression of a gas in the gas chamber according to expansion and contraction of the partitioning member. The port is approximately airtightly inserted into the cylindrical portion of the shell, and is welded to an outer circumference of the cylindrical portion by means of welding.
