Have you ever been to the hospital to see a friend or family member and found them with tracheotomy, ventilator or unable to speak because of a heart attack?
To communicate becomes a problem, as the patients understands you, but you may not understand them.
ABSTRACT
The Rechargeable Therm-o-Electronic Battery
A device that looks just like but weighs less than a normal battery of its size, charges just like a battery but whose output is programmable within the dynamic range of the device.
When power companies distribute electrical power to their customers, they are dealing with conflicting requirements:
On the one hand, it is desirable to maintain the highest line voltage that the distribution system itself can safely handle, due to the following facts.
THE NEED FOR AN INVENTION
According to several recent studies, foot temperature measurement can be an important tool for diabetics. Foot inflammation can be readily monitored via temperature. As simple and effective as this solution sounds, in practice it has failed to see wide spread acceptance.
HYDRAULIC BEARING
*All the weight of the axis spins on a hydraulic fluid, eliminating the need for metallic rollers.
*Works with a very low pressure due the great contact surface. Approximately 71 psi (5kgf/cm2).
HYDRAULIC RAILWAY SYSTEM
*All of the weight of the train is sustained by the hydraulic fluid eliminating the use of wheels.
*Does not consumes energy for flotation (it is a closed sealed hydraulic system).
*It works with extremely low hydraulic pressure,
The concept of this system is an overhead lightweight magnetic levitated train capable of high speed in any type of weather, including icy conditions. It would be constructed with airframe technology to keep it strong but lightweight.
Its design is for intercity service,
This device is a great toddler distractor. While it could be described as a toy, it is more an appliance used by parents to entertain their child for hours, so they can perform other functions, such as chores, talking with other adults, or even resting with their feet up.
Sky Train Corporation created an Innovative Transit and Alternative Energy System that improves and supplements rail. Like upper teeth improve chewing, this improves speed, comfort and handling.
Designed to improve land use, energy consumption and decrease the time between two points.
