A system and method for an intelligent hair drying/styling apparatus with user information transmission and storage capabilities is herein provided. The hair drying/styling apparatus houses a control circuit board and an infrared or temperature sensor (or camera) in order detect an individual's hair condition moisture level to determine a user specific, customizable dryer setting. The information detected by the sensor is stored locally, on a proximal Internet-enabled device, or on a remote or cloud-based server and accessed by the hair drying/styling apparatus through a wireless local area network connectivity function. This innovation will enable any number of hair professionals and or end consumers to improve styling and dry time. According to the present invention, energy usage is reduced to enable a more efficient design.

The present invention includes a spray drying disposable device for use in a spray drying system. The disposable has a spray drying head and a plasma drying chamber. The head has a spray dry nozzle assembly in fluid communication with the plasma source and the pressurized aerosol gas source. The pressurized gas flows in a vortex pattern that atomizes plasma droplets in the chamber. The head also includes a plenum has uniform air pressure of the drying gas. A baffle plate forms the floor of the plenum having drying gas jets that supply drying gas to the chamber. The atomized plasma droplets evaporate in the presence of the drying gas emitted from the jets to obtain dried plasma particles and humid air. A capture filter captures the dried plasma particles and allows the humid air to pass. The humid air passes through the gas outlet and the exhaust port.

The present disclosure provides a method and apparatus for use in a flue-cured barn. The apparatus comprises a combustion chamber for burning fuel; an exhaust pipe for allowing combustion gases to leave the combustion chamber; and a fan for drawing the combustion gases along the exhaust pipe away from the combustion chamber and for generating a negative pressure within the combustion chamber and exhaust pipe compared with the pressure outside the apparatus.

A laundry treatment apparatus includes a connection duct into which air inside a drum, in which laundry is received, is discharged, and a discharge duct that extends in a longitudinal direction of the drum and that is connected to the connection duct. The laundry treatment apparatus also includes a filter assembly that has a filter unit located in the discharge duct and configured to filter air introduced into the discharge duct and an impurity remover unit configured to separate, from the filter unit, impurities remaining on the filter unit. The laundry treatment apparatus further includes an impurity storage device separable from the discharge duct. The impurity storage device is located below the filter unit and configured to store impurities separated from the filter unit by the impurity remover unit.

A cabinet for drying a surgical instrument including: a body defining an interior space; a mounting device in the interior space, the mounting device configured to hold the surgical instrument such that a control section is arranged at a holding position and in an orientation, and a nozzle corresponding to the mounting device. Wherein the nozzle connects to a gas source by a supply line. The gas source supplies a drying gas stream to the nozzle via the supply line. The nozzle guides the drying gas stream directly towards the specified holding position such that a direction that the drying gas stream runs is along and in between control knobs of the control section when the control section is arranged at the holding position and in the orientation.

A laundry treating apparatus includes a cabinet forming an external appearance of the laundry treating apparatus, an accommodation space provided in the cabinet to receive laundry, and a discharge portion configured to discharge air in the accommodation space from the cabinet. The laundry treating apparatus also includes a supply portion configured to supply air into the accommodation space, and a pressure reduction portion configured to discharge the air in the accommodation space from the accommodation space into the cabinet based on a pressure in the accommodation space becoming equal to or higher than a predetermined reference pressure.

In an example embodiment, an air diversion device comprises a cover adaptable to be coupled to a wall-mounted hand dryer, the cover at least partially surrounding an inner volume, a first aperture disposed in the cover and adaptable to bring a hand dryer output of the wall-mounted hand dryer into fluid communication with the inner volume, and a wand coupled to the cover and in fluid communication with the inner volume, wherein the wand comprises a flexible tube and a wand aperture disposed distal to the flexible tube and the cover.

The present invention provides an apparatus for drying apparels. It works without electricity and gas. It is basically for using while camping. It is an apparatus that uses natural convection for drying boots, gloves, shoes, socks and etc. It is designed to use the energy of campfire to function. Users just have to put dryer in the front of the fire and it draws hot air into the telescopic base and the hot air raises causing air movement. It gives ability to dry the boots without propane or electricity. Dimension of the drier is twelve inches wide, eighteen inches tall and three inches thick. It is portable and collapsible apparel dryer. It is made up of aluminum tubes.

A rotary adsorbent dryer is provided which includes a stationary outer housing having spaced stationary end walls, and a rotor mounted for rotation within the outer housing. A plurality of compressed gas passages pass through the end walls to provide compressed gas flow to or from a respective substantially open end of the rotor. A drive arrangement is provided which is cooperable with an outer circumferential region of the rotor so that it is not necessary to provide a drive shaft which extends axially through desiccant material within the rotor.

This invention relates generally to a dehydration device and methods for drying biological materials to produce dried biological materials having enhanced structural properties. More specifically, the invention relates to a dehydration device and related methods for drying biological tissue to produce enhanced tissue grafts.
