A heat exchanger includes a vapor collection pipe, a liquid collection pipe, and an exchange pipeline. The exchange pipeline includes a condensing section, an evaporation section, and a transition section. An upper end of the condensing section is connected to the vapor collection pipe. A lower end of the condensing section is connected to a first end of the transition section. An upper end of the evaporation section is connected to a second end of the transition section. A lower end of the evaporation section is connected to the liquid collection pipe. The evaporation section and the condensing section respectively extend in directions opposite to each other.

Disclosed is an attachment mechanism for attaching a wireless access point to a vertical structure, such as a wall. The attachment mechanism includes a bracket that is mounted to the vertical structure. The attachment mechanism also includes at least two engagement members positioned on opposing sides of the access point. The two engagement members are horizontally aligned, in some embodiments, when the access point is engaged with a bracket. The two engagement members engage with receptacles that are part of the bracket. One of the receptacles includes a tab which prevents its corresponding engagement member from fully engaging with the receptacle, allowing the attachment mechanism to disengage via disengagement of only one of the engagement members.

A retrofit switch apparatus is designed to pair with a traditional switch device that has a traditional switch for accepting a first user manual operation to control a target device connected to the traditional switch device with an electrical wire. The retrofit switch apparatus has a cover body, a control cover, a control decoder, and a wireless transmitter. The cover body covers the traditional switch device. The control decoder and the wireless transmitter are disposed in the cover body.

The invention concerns an antenna assembly that includes an antenna device and a mount for the antenna device. The antenna device (1) includes a mounting part (11) projecting from the rear end of the antenna device (1). The mount (2) includes a body (21) insertable into an opening of a ceiling or a wall, the body (21) having an internal surface forming a cavity (22) for receiving the mounting part (11) of the antenna device (1). The mount includes at least one resilient member (231, 232) attached to the body (21) enabling receiving and fixing the mounting part (11) of the antenna device (1) in the cavity (22) and simultaneously enabling fixing the mount (2) in the opening of the ceiling or wall.

A water meter transmission system reads data from a water meter and wirelessly transmits data to a central billing or receiving system. Disclosed transmission systems are fully integrated and contained within pit housings such that electronic components are well protected. A spiral antenna is integrated into a specially configured integrated antenna cover which fits into the top cover of a pit housing. The antenna cover and/or upper lip area of the upper lip of the main housing may comprise a distal barrier and a medial barrier used to exclude water and contaminates. Disclosed transmission systems offer high output and low power consumption and vitiate the need for meter readers to physically access a water meter or other meters.
