FUEL CELL SYSTEM
A fuel cell system is provided having a fuel cell and a jet pump control valve unit connected to an anode chamber with an intake connection and a pressure connection. A fuel gas control valve connecting a fuel gas source and the jet pump has a valve seat with a first sealing surface and at least two through-flow channels, and a moveable valve body with a second sealing surface. The valve body can be moved into a blocking position and a through-flow position using a valve body actuator. The sealing surfaces rest on one another in a common sealing plane and form a seal in the blocking position. A stroke gap is formed between the sealing surfaces in the through-flow position. The first or second sealing surface is arranged on a raised sealing level. A volume flow of a drive jet can be controlled by the valve body actuator.
Fan
A fan includes a central hub defining an inlet, a motor positioned within the central hub, and an impeller positioned within the central hub. The impeller is operable to be rotated by the motor to generate air movement. The fan also includes a nozzle defining a channel that receives the airflow from the central hub. The nozzle also defines an outlet in communication with the channel to direct air out of the nozzle. The fan further includes a plurality of conduits connecting the nozzle to the central hub to direct air from the central hub to the channel and through the outlet of the nozzle. The nozzle defines a projection aligned with each conduit to divide air movement through the nozzle.

System for the circulation of gas in airs gaps of rotating machines
A system for the recirculation of gas in air gaps of rotating machines via an ejector, a motor and a pump, including circulating a gas extracted from a gas-extraction unit which is located in the pump. This gas circulates in the gap between the rotors and the stator of the motor. The rotor of the motor is coupled to the shaft of the pump, and in one or more embodiments the gas from the gas-extraction unit flows from the pump to the ejector in order to be injected into the air gap between the rotor and the stator, thereafter returning to a process line. In one or more embodiments, the gas from the gas-extraction unit flows from the pump, and is injected directly into the air gap, and thereafter passes via the ejector in order to recirculate the gas to the process line.
FAN ASSEMBLY
A fan assembly including a base arranged to support the fan assembly on a surface, an air flow generator that is arranged to generate an air flow, and an air outlet that is arranged to emit at least a portion of the air flow from the fan assembly is provided. The air outlet is arranged to be oscillated relative to the base. The fan assembly further includes a controller that is arranged to control the oscillation of the air outlet relative to the base. The controller is arranged to vary an oscillation speed of the air outlet for each oscillation.
BLOWER
A blower includes a lower case provided with an inlet; a first tower that extends upward from the lower case and is formed with a first outlet; a second tower that extends upward from the lower case and is provided with a second outlet; a fan that is rotatably disposed on the lower case; a first air flow converter that is disposed at the first tower; and a second air flow converter that is disposed at the second tower, each of the first air flow converter and the second air flow converter including: a guide board that is disposed inside the first tower or the second tower or protrudes through a first wall or a second wall; an upper gear that rotates in engagement with an upper portion of the guide board; a lower gear that rotates in engagement with a lower portion of the guide board; a shaft that is connected to each of the upper gear and the lower gear to rotate together; and a motor that is connected to one of the upper gear and the lower gear to provide a driving force.
BLOWER
A blower includes: a fan; a lower body having an inner space to receive the fan, and a suction hole; a first upper body communicating with the inner space and having a surface with a first discharge hole; a first damper movably coupled to the first upper body and penetrating the surface; the first damper having a first end facing an outside of the first upper body and a second end opposite to the first end; and a first bar extending along and coupled to the second end of the first damper.
Air moving device with bypass intake
An air moving device has a housing with a primary flow path and a secondary flow path that extends from a secondary inlet of the housing and empties into an inner outlet adjacent the primary flow path. An impeller assembly rotates a blade to cause air to enter the housing and flow along the primary flow path. The flow of air through the primary flow path creates a low pressure region at the inner outlet of the secondary flow path, causing air to flow through the secondary flow path and mix with the air in the primary flow path. The mixture of air flows through a downstream portion of the primary flow path having an expanded width compared to an upstream portion of the primary flow path and exits the housing. Stator vanes may extend longitudinally within the housing to cause columnar air flow. The device may be used for destratification of thermal gradients of air within an enclosure, such as a home or warehouse.
