An electric submersible pump assembly with integral heat exchanger, high speed gas separator, high-speed self-aligning bearings, and dual bearing thrust chamber is described. The described gas separator may be used for operating an electric submersible pump at high speeds as well as over a wide range of speeds and flowrates without replacing downhole equipment.

The present invention provides support frames for positive pressure blowers having one or more wheels mounted at a lower corner of the frame, wherein the wheels are mounted to roll in a direction that is perpendicular to the flow of air through the blower. This sideways orientation of the wheels allows a frame carrying a blower to be easily moved from side to side, such as when placed into or removed from a side compartment on an emergency vehicle, and allows such a frame carrying a blower to be easily tilted, turned and rolled around at the scene of a fire in much the same manner as a wheelbarrow. Embodiments of the invention may include an upper handle or grip which allows a user to control the frames by tilting and rolling them around on the wheels. Embodiments of the invention may include a support bracket for holding a battery or other power supply.

A submersible pump providing an impeller pump assembly, an aerator pump assembly, a central hub assembly, and a nozzle assembly. The combination or integration of two independently driven, high-pressure impeller pump assembly and high-volume pump aerator pump assembly simultaneously coacting within the same submersible pump apparatus and using the central hub assembly and nozzle assembly to create and display the combination of very tall streams while simultaneously displaying a wide variety of other beautiful high-volume or flow display aerator spray patterns

Blowers with variable nozzles are provided. A blower includes a fan, and a main body housing the fan, the main body defining an airflow path extending between an inlet end and an outlet end. A blower further includes a variable nozzle disposed at the outlet end. The variable nozzle includes an attachment collar, the attachment collar comprising a body defining an exterior surface and an interior surface and extending along a longitudinal axis. The variable nozzle further includes a plurality of air control bodies, each of the plurality of air control bodies movably connected to the attachment collar and comprising an air control surface and an extension rod. The variable nozzle further includes an adjustment collar, the adjustment collar disposed around the attachment collar and defining a plurality of adjustment channels, wherein each of the plurality of extension rods is disposed in one of the plurality of adjustment channels.

An electric submersible pumping system is constructed with an outer housing which contains an integrated pump and motor. The pump may comprise an impeller disposed within a stator of the motor to form an integrated pump and the motor. An electric submersible pumping system includes a stator having a passage extending longitudinally through the stator. A plurality of stages, including impellers and diffusers, are disposed within the passage.

A method, system and apparatus for a vibration-masking device for use in the bed emits sufficient vibration to mask ambient vibrations and aid in sleep and relaxation. Low frequency vibrations also help reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis, also referred to as DVT. The apparatus is designed to be cooled so as to avoid overheating when used in the bed or in upholstered furniture.

The invention relates to a side-channel compressor (1) for a fuel cell system (37) for conveying and/or compressing a gas, particularly hydrogen, comprising a housing (3), the housing (3) comprising a housing upper part (7) and a housing lower part (8), a compressor chamber (30) located in the housing (3), comprising at least one peripheral side channel (19), a compressor wheel (2) arranged in the housing (3), which is rotatably arranged about an axis of rotation (4), the compressor wheel (2) comprising blades (5) arranged on the periphery thereof in the region of the compressor chamber (30), and respectively a gas inlet (14) embodied in the housing and a gas outlet (16) which are fluidically interconnected by means of the compressor chamber (30), particularly the at least one side channel (19). According to the invention, the compressor wheel (2) comprises a peripheral stop ring (11) on the periphery thereof, which extends around the compressor wheel (2) in a rotationally symmetric manner in relation to the axis of rotation (4).

End element for the stator of an electric motor of a hermetically sealed refrigerant compressor including at least one isolating element, having a ring-like core, to cover an axial end portion of the stator and to isolate a stator core and stator windings. The end element includes several spring holders extending radially outside the isolating element, each spring holder being adapted to hold a spring for supporting the electric motor in a housing of the hermetically sealed refrigerant compressor. The spring holders are oriented parallel to the axis of the isolating element and an insertion part of each spring holder extends in a first axial direction beyond the neighboring area of the isolating element. The spring holders and the isolating element are integral parts of the end element. The spring holders are tiltable so that an extended part of a spring holder tilts radially inwards.

A fan includes an annular frame, a rail assembly, a driving member and blades. The blades are connected to the driving member. The driving member is electromagnetically movable along the maglev assembly that extends along an edge of the annular frame. The driving member does not contact the annular frame or the maglev assembly so that when the fan is used, the maglev assembly is energized to generate an electromagnetic force between the maglev assembly and the driving member to move the driving member along the edge of the annular frame to drive the blades to rotate. Therefore, the blades can be rotated without having to use any motor behind the annular frame, thereby reducing the volume of the fan.

A bearing housing (1) of an exhaust-gas turbocharger 2, having an oil guide to at least one bearing point (5) in the bearing housing (1). The oil guide is formed by at least one of bores and cutouts in the bearing housing (1). There is formed in the oil guide a siphon (10) which is integrated into the bearing housing (1).
