The present invention relates to an electrode mounting unit comprising: a mounting member comprising a horizontal plate, a vertical plate disposed on a top surface of the horizontal plate, and a shaft which is fixed to the vertical plate and into which an electrode roll is fitted to be mounted; and an unwinding prevention member disposed between the electrode wound around the electrode roll and the horizontal plate to support the electrode wound around the electrode roll so as to prevent the electrode wound around the electrode roll from being unwound.

Provided is a supercritical drying method of a silica wet gel blanket and a method for producing a silica aerogel blanket including the same, the supercritical drying method preventing a salt from being accumulated inside equipment during supercritical drying. By preventing a salt from being accumulated inside equipment during supercritical drying, it is possible to improve the operational stability of the supercritical drying process. In addition, since only a line filter needs to be separated and is easily washed, the time required for washing and the total amount of ammonia wastewater generated therefrom can be reduced, thereby improving efficiency and reducing costs.

A portable airtight electronic component dryer device including a container having an interior portion for receiving one or more electronic components for drying; a desiccant disposed in the interior portion of the container; and a removable lid for the container. The removable lid contains a disinfecting light source, and a power source for providing power to the disinfecting light source. Light generated by the disinfecting light source is directed into the interior portion of the container.

A dewatering device for aggregate product can be used to retro-fit existing aggregate product dewatering facilities in order to more efficiently capture product. The dewatering device can be movable to allow for the portability of the device relative to existing dewatering facilities. The device is adapted to receive a slurry of aggregate product and water and to vibrate to dry the aggregate product. A recycle system is included to receive any fines that may otherwise be lost by the system. The recycle system captures the fines and redirects them back towards the vibrating process of the vibrating device to direct them towards an exit of the vibrating device in order to use said fines as well as the other dewatered aggregate product. The portability of the device allows the device to be used with the existing facilities without the need to completely replace existing components for dewatering aggregate product.

A laundry appliance includes a drum for processing laundry. A blower delivers process air through an airflow path that includes the drum. A lint filter is positioned within the airflow path that separates particulate matter from the process air. A lint disposal mechanism removes entrapped lint particles from a surface of the lint filter.

The present invention provides a hay bale dryer, comprising: a platform, the platform dimensioned to support the hay bale; a spike rack movably coupled to the platform, the spike rack having a plurality of spikes, each spike having a plurality of slots and each spike dimensioned to penetrate through the hay bale; a fan coupled to the spike rack and operative to blow air through the slots in the spikes, wherein the spike rack is raised to permit loading and unloading of the hay bale, and lowered to permit drying of the hay bale via the air blown through the spikes.

A device for conveying and feeding wet material for a cross-flow hot air combine harvester, the device consisting of a hot air pumping part and a material conveying part. The hot air pumping part uses an air suction pump (4) to pump a flow of hot waste air from an engine radiator (1) of the combine harvester by means of an air suction pipeline (3) so as to provide hot air flow for the material conveying and feeding device. The material conveying part consists of a chain harrow-type conveying groove structure (A) and a cross-flow air chamber structure (B), wherein the chain harrow-type conveying groove structure (A) is located at an upper part of the cross-flow air chamber structure (B) and is used for forcibly conveying and feeding a material; and the cross-flow air chamber structure (B) uses hot air to dry the material, blows to assist in feeding the material, and uses a cross-flow air wheel (14) to forcibly feed the material. By using excess heat that is generated by the engine of the combine harvester to perform auxiliary blowing and drying during the process of conveying and feeding a wet material, the feeding device may lower the temperature of the engine and reduce the effects of heat radiation and ageing that high temperatures have on surrounding devices, and may lower the water content of a wet agricultural material, thus preventing blockages produced because of moisture.

A battery powered blow dryer having a novel heating element technology that can be powered by an attached battery pack. The heating element includes an infrared light bulb that emits high heat with relatively low power consumption compared to current methods. The present invention patent also describes a unique configuration of battery cells to optimally perform the task of blow drying hair.

Technologies for controlling food dehydration in a low-oxygen environment include a control device and an enclosed drying chamber. The control device receives sensor data from environmental sensors disposed within the drying chamber. A concentration of oxygen within the drying chamber is determined based on the received sensor data. The control device controls a valve to selectively feed an amount of a combustible gas to a burner assembly disposed within the drying chamber. The burner assembly is ignited by the control device and a flame is produced. The flame depletes the concentration of oxygen within the drying chamber to an initial oxygen concentration level. The control device controls another valve to feed an amount of non-reactive gas into the drying chamber to flush the drying chamber and further deplete the concentration of oxygen within the drying chamber to a lower oxygen concentration level. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
