ELECTRIC FLUID FLOW HEATER WITH HEATING ELEMENTS STABILIZATION FINS
20220178584 · 2022-06-09 · ·

An electric heater to heat a flow of a fluid having a jacket block comprising a plurality of longitudinal bores to allow the through-flow of a gas phase medium. An elongate heating element extends through each of the bores and is positionally stabilised within the jacket block via a plurality of stabilising fins that project radially inward to at least partially surround the elongate heating element within each of the bores.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR OPERATING A FURNACE SYSTEM

A furnace system includes a heat exchanger and a burner assembly including a burner enclosure fluidly coupled to the heat exchanger. The burner assembly is configured to receive a fluid, ignite the fluid to produce combustion byproducts, and direct the combustion byproducts to the heat exchanger. The furnace system also includes a pressure sensor configured to detect a pressure within the burner enclosure. The furnace system is configured to operate based on the pressure detected by the pressure sensor.

Heater-integrated filter and rotating machine system

A heater-integrated filter includes: a casing in which are formed an intake port for taking in a portion of process gas from a compressor and a discharge port for discharging the process gas; a filter body which is provided inside the casing and through which the process gas from the intake port passes; and rod-like heaters which are disposed inside the casing and along which the process gas that has passed through the filter body is capable of flowing toward the discharge port along the extension direction.

Steam Therapy Assembly
20220126031 · 2022-04-28 ·

A steam therapy assembly includes a housing that has an intake and an exhaust to pass air through the intake and the exhaust. A water tank is removably attachable to the housing and the water tank has a fluid port to pass water therethrough for filling the water tank with water. An oil cartridge contains oil and the oil cartridge is removably insertable into the housing. A vaporizing unit is integrated into the housing and the vaporizing unit is in fluid communication between the intake and the exhaust to urge air into the intake and outwardly through the exhaust when the vaporizing unit is turned on. The vaporizing unit vaporizes the water in the water tank into a steam. Additionally, the vaporizing unit vaporizes the oil in the oil cartridge thereby mixing the vaporized oil with the vaporized water.

System and method for heating and cooling

An HVAC system is provided. Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to an HVAC system in which multiple indoor units are coupled to central outdoor unit, where at least one of the indoor units is configured to provide conditioned air through ductwork and at least one indoor unit is configured to provide conditioned air without ductwork. Moreover, a gas furnace can be provided in the system, for harsher environments that benefit from more robust heating. Additional systems, devices, and methods are also disclosed.

Tubing structures are connected to each other to form a tubing assembly having one or more fluid pathways from a fluid entrance to a fluid exit. A heating device is bonded to the tubing structures along a length of the tubing assembly. The heating device has a flexibility to follow along one or more bends present along the length of the tubing assembly. The heating device includes one or more heater traces embedded within an encasing material. The encasing material is thermally conductive and electrically insulative. The one or more heater traces are formed of a material that generates heat in the presence of an electrical current. The heating device has a continuous and unbroken structure along the length of the tubing assembly. An encapsulation layer of thermal insulating material is disposed over the tubing assembly and covers the heating device.

Heating device

A heating device includes a base member and a gas burner mounted in or on the base member. An upper housing located above the base member and a tabletop mounted above the upper housing. A hollow heat shield having a proximal end located on or near the base member, and a distal end located within the upper housing, and a support member extending between the base member and the upper housing or tabletop. The distal end of the heat shield extends beyond a proximal end of the upper housing, defining a region of vertical overlap between the heat shield and the upper housing.

Method and device to allow antiseptic proximity seating

With respect to pandemics, restaurants, stadiums, cafeterias, and bars are among the most dangerous places to socialize due to the form of interaction. Exchange of bacteria and viruses are facilitated intensively from the mouth and nose via air transport in droplets of saliva and bodily fluids being deposited on surfaces, foods, and in the air. The present development creates a comfortable environment where the air-space of each customer is separated by invisible cold-hot air and vis-UV barriers, which take away bacteria and viruses, destroying them and preventing recirculation while offering pleasant, clean, and sanitized ambient conditions for a face to face meeting. An immersive experience can be provided with surrounding screens and gas therapy that may be customized according to the customer's preferences. Food distribution is performed with a robotic shuttle system and when the customer departs, an extensive cleanup is performed using chemicals and UV irradiation through robotic systems.
