An object has at least a first source of light secured thereto. At least a first light-bearing conduit operably couples to this source of light and also to at least a first heat-dispersion component that is also secured to the object. So configured, the heat-dispersion component responds to reception of light from at least the first source of light via at least the first light-bearing conduit by dispersing heat derived from the light.

The present invention provides a device and method for electromagnetic induction heating-assisted laser additive manufacturing of a titanium matrix composite and belongs to the technical field of laser additive manufacturing. The device includes a coaxial-powder feeding laser deposition system and an electromagnetic induction heating synchronous auxiliary system. The coaxial-powder feeding laser deposition system includes a substrate, a deposition sample, a laser head and an infrared thermometer. The electromagnetic induction heating synchronous auxiliary system includes an electromagnetic induction power supply auxiliary unit, a coil, a steering heightening mechanism, a driven shaft and a transverse sliding groove. The coil is connected to an output end of the electromagnetic induction power supply auxiliary unit. The coil and the laser head do synchronous movement to implement small-area real-time preheating and slow cooling on the deposition sample.

An inexpensive system for maintaining an LCD display above an operative temperature includes ultraviolet (UV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) incorporated into a backlight structure. The UV LEDs operate in a frequency range sufficiently removed from the visible band to not interfere with the user. A temperature sensor continuously or periodically monitors the temperature of the LCD and activates the UV LEDs to maintain the LCD in a predetermined temperature range for a desired response time.

In a solid-state heating system, once a load with specific load characteristics has been placed in a heating cavity, a processing unit produces control signals that indicate an excitation signal frequency and one or more phase shifts, which constitute a combination of parameter values. Multiple microwave generation modules produce RF excitation signals characterized by the frequency and the phase shift(s). Multiple microwave energy radiators radiate, into the heating cavity, electromagnetic energy corresponding to RF excitation signals received from the microwave generation modules. Power detection circuitry takes reflected RF power measurements, and the processing unit determines a reflected power indication based on the measurements. The process is repeated for different combinations of the parameter values, and an acceptable combination of parameter values is determined and stored in a memory of the heating system. Acceptable combinations of parameter values similarly may be determined and stored for other loads with different load characteristics.
