A blower is provided that may include a fan that creates airflow; a lower body forming an inner space in which the fan may be installed, and having at least one suction hole through which air passes; an upper body positioned above the lower body and including a first upper body forming a first inner space that communicates with the inner space of the lower body, and a second upper body forming a second inner space that communicates with the inner space of the lower body and spaced apart from the first upper body; a space formed between the first upper body and the second upper body and opened in a frontward-rearward direction; a first opening formed through a first boundary surface of the first upper body facing the space; a second opening formed through a second boundary surface of the second upper body facing the space; and a door assembly including a first door installed at the first upper body and that opens and closes the first opening, and a second door installed at the second upper body and that opens and closes the second opening.

A portable inflation device having a pump, a control device, a user interface, and an inflation indicator. The pump includes an elongated hose with an inflation nozzle. The control device controls operation of the pump and is configured to sense a current pressure of an object, calculate the estimated remaining time to inflate the object to a target pressure, and display the remaining time using the inflation indicator. The user interface is configured to allow a user to enter the target pressure into the control device.

An ejector includes a nozzle, a body including a refrigerant suction port and a pressure increasing portion, a passage forming member inserted into the nozzle, and an actuation device moving the passage forming member. A nozzle passage includes a smallest passage cross-sectional area portion, a convergent portion, and a divergent portion. The passage forming member includes a tip portion which changes the passage cross-sectional area at the smallest passage cross-sectional area portion when the actuation device moves the passage forming member. A positive displacement amount is defined as an amount of a displacement of the passage forming member when the passage forming member is moved so as to increase the passage cross-sectional area at the smallest passage cross-sectional area portion. The tip portion has a shape in which an increase rate of the smallest passage cross-sectional area portion is increased according to an increase of the positive displacement amount.

An ejector includes a body including an inflow space into which a refrigerant flows, a passage formation member disposed inside the body and having a conical shape, and a nozzle passage having an annular cross section functioning as a nozzle and a diffuser passage having an annular cross section functioning as a pressurizing portion between an inner wall surface of the body and a conical lateral surface of the passage formation member. A drive mechanism that displaces the passage formation member along a center axis is coupled to an upstream actuating bar which extends from the passage formation member toward the inflow space and is slidably supported by the body. A largest outer diameter portion of an annular member forming a wall surface of the nozzle passage provides a throat portion functioning as an edge for enlarging a passage cross-sectional area to cause a separation vortex in the refrigerant.

A portable device for inflating at least one envelope includes an inlet for surrounding air (1), at least one nonreturn valve, at least one compressed gas inlet (2), at least one intake chamber (3), at least one connection, such as an acceleration cone (5), with a longitudinal median symmetry axis (X, X), arranged in the extension of at least one intake chamber (3), and connected to at least one inflatable envelope, and an intermediate chamber connecting at least one compressed gas inlet (2) to at least one intake chamber (3). The intermediate chamber and the at least one intake chamber (3) are separated by a wall arranged transversely to the axis (X, X) and connected by at least one orifice located in the transverse wall (8).
