This invention performs all the necessary functions common to the internal combustion piston engine, but its inherent design eliminates the main drawbacks associated with a reciprocating piston engine. For instance, the main moving parts rotate,
Electrical Bike with Solar Disc Wheel
This concept bike is a design challenged by today's pursuit of greener transportation devices. It is capable of running on battery power, on power from sun light, by pedaling or a combination of these.
Pure electric vehicles are an attractive solution to the problems of pollution and dwindling supply of oil. However, they will fulfill only a fraction of the transportation needs of people and businesses for the foreseeable future because of their limited range.
Name of invention: Concave and Convex Roller Bearing
Range of field areas: Invention is widely used in the sphere of bearing production, mechanical engineering, as well as aircraft and high and light industry including other related fields of production.
The idea considered will impact aviation by the reduction in cost of construction, increased useful load and elimination of large moving structures, thereby allowing additional weight reduction or increased useful load.
While taking pictures, keeping the camera level cuts off the top of tall buildings. If we tilt the camera upwards to include the top of the tall building, it results in Vertical Perspective.
This happens because the position of the image sensor is fixed in the camera.
A PCR machine is required for every single procedure, test, or experiment involving DNA that you can think of. It is good for replicating DNA a few billion-fold, but is most often used to amplify specific sequences of DNA strands,
The Earth magnetic field poses a radial gradient, as any other physical field, however its magnitude is as low as .01 nanoTesla/meter. There are Earth zones where the geomagnetic field is totally horizontal.
Team JURBAN has designed an efficient, long-range communications device that can fit within a 24 inch cubic enclosure. Using an inflatable dish from GATR technologies as a low-powered, high gain antenna (0 in antenna capable of a 2Mbps data link rate, with four back-up,
