A system, method, and apparatus for drying a hydration system comprises an airflow apparatus comprising a case, a heating element, a fan, a cap for a hydration bladder cap comprising a fluidic connection to bladder and air flow apparatus, a conduit connected to cap and airflow apparatus, conduit further comprising an exhaust vent, a clip connected to a mouthpiece associated with bladder wherein airflow apparatus produces airflow through bladder and mouthpiece, and a rack configured to hold hydration bladder while airflow flow through bladder and mouthpiece.

The present application discloses a cleaning method and a cleaning device. The cleaning method includes the following steps: dividing a cleaning device into at least two regions to control for the same cleaning mode; detecting a width of an object to be cleaned; and turning on the cleaning device of corresponding region according to the width of the object to be cleaned. The cleaning device includes a detection structure, a conveying structure, a washing structure, an air knife structure, and a control structure, where the washing structure is divided into at least two regions, and the air knife structure is also divided into at least two regions.

Systems and methods for drying or bonding materials are described. A material to be dried or bonded may be passed through a through air dryer (TAD) (or other dryer). Some of the air output by a TAD may be recirculated to be passed back through material. As the air is recirculated, it is heated and mixed to a desired temperature for drying or bonding. A separate hot air injection system may heat ambient air and/or air exhausted by the TAD and inject the heated air into the recirculated air.

A kiln for drying and processing lumber packages is provided. The kiln generally includes at least one end chamber, a drying chamber adjacent to the end chamber, a first lumber conveying line configured to transport the lumber packages in a first direction through the end chamber and the drying chamber, and a second lumber conveying line configured to transport the lumber packages in a second direction through the end chamber and the drying chamber. The conveying lines may be countercurrent or uniflow. The kiln may further include a heat distributor in the end chamber to distribute heat into the end chamber in addition to heat from the drying chamber along the first and second lumber conveying lines. The heat distributor may include a distribution duct receiving heat from a drying chamber distribution duct or a heater inlet duct, a heat exchanger, a radiative heating element, or a combination thereof.

A battery powered blow dryer having a novel battery cooling feature to simultaneously cool the batteries and improve hair dryer performance.

A heating device includes a hermetic container configured to accommodate a heatable object, a nozzle that supplies superheated steam into the hermetic container, a partition plate that separates a supplying region for the superheated steam from a heating region where the heatable object is heated in the hermetic container, an opening arranged in the partition plate, the opening allowing the superheated steam to be blown from the supplying region toward the heatable object in the heating region, an electric heater that heats the superheated steam in the supplying region, and a circulation mechanism that circulates the superheated steam from the supplying region to the heating region.

The present disclosure relates to an improved drying apparatus, system and method for use in an automated vehicle cleaning system. Specifically, an improved drying apparatus, system and method is provided, which includes a series of components resulting in combined sound reducing features and incorporating sound absorbing acoustic materials creating a quiet technology system. The present disclosure provides a drying apparatus with an overall lower decibel level, without sacrificing air flow and efficiency in the drying of a vehicle.
