A heat panel system for preventing ice formation about a roof or gutter includes at least two heat panels that are connected using a fastener. The heat panels each include a body including at least one channel configured to accept a heating element. Tongues and grooves or other mating arrangements on the panels and the fastener permit two panels to be joined by a fastener so as to inhibit relative lateral movement and enhance heat transfer between panels. A single panel or a multi-panel system can be mounted directly on the roof, and/or a single panel system can be mounted in a gutter. By using these heat panels and fasteners, heat panel systems of varying widths can be made using the same supplies.

The invention relates to a suspension bridge type self-supporting aerial metal structure, in which the main platform is designed having three levels. The upper level is intended for the passage of motor vehicles. The intermediate level is intended for the transportation, transmission and distribution of all existing public services, and other possible services. The lower level is intended for an urban public transport system. Thanks to its self-supported aerial design, the structure of the present invention can be built within cities following the same layout as existing roads.

A master plan for a thrivable community comprises a primary plot of land in the shape of an annulus (ring). The center of the annulus delimits a natural preserve including a body of water, forest, woods, beaches, and combinations thereof. A road or path is provided around the outside of the annulus and a road or path is provided around the interior of the annulus. The community is structured in accordance with the Pareto Principle wherein at most twenty percent (20%) of the area of the community is developed and at least eighty percent (80%) of the area of the community is undeveloped.

An inflatable drive through tunnel system comprised of an inflatable main tunnel and an inflatable positive pressure booth area for performing simple medical diagnostic tests or the like. A patient can drive into the inflatable tunnel. Medical personnel can take samples from patients who remain in their vehicles. The medical personnel can then store the samples in the positive pressure booth area. The positive pressure ensures that outside contaminants are not brought into the booth through the air when the personnel enter and leave the booth.

A head pad assembly includes a plurality of head pad subassemblies pivotably joined along their lateral edge so as to allow vertical rotation of one subassembly relative to an adjoining subassembly when the head pad is actuated. At least one head pad subassembly includes a stiff upper backing portion and a lower compressible pad. The head pad assembly further includes one or more flexible hinges coupling the plurality of head pad subassemblies along their lateral edges to effect the vertical rotation. The head pad assembly further includes an actuator assembly configured to raise and lower the plurality of head pad subassemblies between an upper position and a lower, sealing position.

One or more embodiments of a device or structure for medical testing. The structure may include a shell defining an interior of the structure, at least one workstation in the interior of the structure, at least one window in the shell, each of the at least one workstation including one of the at least one window communicating between the respective workstation and an exterior of the structure, and an air control system configured to filter air and control air pressure in the interior of the structure.

A production and consumption system of three-dimensional vertical planting landscape and capable of achieving healthy, low-cost and environmental protection includes an aquatic raising zone, a crop planting zone, an animal raising zone, an insect culturing zone, a food processing zone, a consumption zone, a sport health zone, providing a shopping suggestion list automatically for reference based on a consumer's purchase traceability, and offering a sport suggestion list and a food suggestion list that are suitable for the consumer based on a physiological data so as to allow the consumer to do exercise and control diet, thereby attaining effects of low-cost, environmental protection, super-freshness, high efficiency, high quality of production of vegetables, meat and aquatic products, and functions of purchase, health, shopping, tourism, exercise, fitness and health monitoring.
