A method for depositing a transfer material onto a receiving substrate uses a source of laser energy, a receiving substrate, and a target substrate. The target substrate comprises a laser-transparent support having a laser-facing surface and a support surface. The target substrate also comprises a composite material having a back surface in contact with the support surface and a front surface. The composite material comprises a mixture of the transfer material to be deposited and a matrix material. The matrix material is a material that has the property that, when it is exposed to laser energy, it desorbs from the laser-transparent support. The source of laser energy is positioned in relation to the target substrate so that laser energy is directed through the laser-facing surface of the target substrate and through the laser-transparent support to strike the composite material at a defined target location. The receiving substrate is positioned in a spaced relation to the target substrate. The source of laser energy has sufficient energy to desorb the composite material at the defined target location, causing the composite material to desorb from the defined target location and be lifted from the support surface of the laser-transparent support. The composite material is deposited at a defined receiving location on the receiving substrate. The method is useful for creating a pattern of biomaterial on the receiving substrate.

An improved capacity mud pump is achieved by lengthening the link between the piston and the pump handle in such a way that each stroke of the handle moves the piston farther, thus transferring more mud per stroke. Reconfiguration of the output aperture of the pump by attaching a high filler allows the user to hold the empty tool in a position that affords better leverage in working the pump handle and shaft guides improve the application of vertical force to the piston.

The present disclosure provides a pole part of a low-voltage, medium-voltage and / or high-voltage switching device.

The vacuum interrupt chamber is cast into an insulating material. The insulating material has opening at the bottom in at least one of a region of the movable contact and a drive rod driving that drives the movable contact. To reduce the heating of the pole part to enable production of a higher rated current carrying capacity, in the region of the movable contact and / or the articulation point of the drive rod, at least one ventilation opening is formed to pass through at least one of an exterior wall of the insulation, a boundary zone between the insulation and the electrical connection piece, and the electrical connection piece.

Chilling is produced from heat that is normally wasted in the economizer section of a steam boiler. A thermally-activated ammonia-water absorption chiller is powered by a heat recovery unit. The heat recovery unit supplies boiler exhaust heat to desorb the working fluid of the chiller. That can be directly, such that the heat recovery unit is a heat recovery vapor generator that can be colocated with an economizer, in parallel or series. The exhaust heat can alternatively be supplied to the AARC indirectly, via a heat transfer loop and a separate generator. The desorbed ammonia vapor is rectified, condensed, and then used to produce the chilling. The heat released in the chiller when low pressure ammonia vapor is re-absorbed is used to preheat the boiler feedwater.

A helmet has inner and outer shells separated by a plurality of interconnected relatively soft columns or posts. The columns each have a middle post or pillar section, a capital that is of larger diameter than the post, and a base also of larger transverse dimension than the post. When an impact above a design threshold occurs on the outer shell, the columns, particularly the post sections thereof, near the impact location compress and buckle, dissipating impact kinetic energy, while columns spaced from the impact zone stretch and support more of the impact force. The applied force is therefore reduced and spread out over a relatively large area, and a resultant wave created within the column manifold disperses additional heat, further reducing the force and torque applied on the outer shell and transmitted to the inner shell and onto the skull of a helmet user. A method and mold for fabricating the column manifold are also disclosed.

An adiabatic expansion chamber is formed in a lower portion of the chiller on a flow line for the compressed air cooled in the chiller to move toward the reheater. A condensation chamber is formed in a lower portion of the reheater connected to the adiabatic expansion chamber. A condensation mesh sieve and a drainage hole are formed in the condensation hole.

A fueling data collection unit associated with a fuel transfer apparatus and for use with a system for managing fueling transactions of a fleet operator using fuel transfer apparatuses at one or more locations includes a fueling data interface module and a temperature compensation module. The temperature compensation module compensates for a volume variance of the fuel as a result of temperature variance from the standard temperature data to determine a volume correction factor at the measured fuel temperature, while the temperature compensation module uses the measured fuel temperature to determine a compensated, more accurate volume and / or mass of fuel dispensed through the fuel meter. In this way, the fuel data collection unit can accurately measure the volume and / or mass of fuel being delivered. This allows the provider and the recipient to more accurately sell / buy what was actually delivered and can avoid over-filling a fueling order.

This reduces the rotational load on the rotary drive mechanism, and since a small size and a reduction in weight can be achieved for the system, the workpiece transfer system and method enables a single worker to easily give a workpiece an inclination and inversion attitude change.

A capital creation process for a qualified (i.e., tax-exempt) organization to raise funds for capital improvements, subsequently eliminating the obligation to ever repay the debt. The tax-exempt bonds are offered to selected investors in a pool that meets certain parameters that may include age, wealth and affiliation with the tax-exempt organization issuing the bonds. The investor establishes an individual charitable remainder trust with the purchased tax-exempt bonds as the asset. The qualified organization is named as the irrevocable residual beneficiary of the trust. The investor receives an annuity equal to the bond interest income from the charitable remainder trust for life. Upon the death of the investor, the bonds are returned to the organization, which can then extinguish the liability on its financial statements. The investor in the tax-exempt bonds is able to deduct from his individual income tax return, an amount under applicable tax laws for the contribution of the tax-exempt bonds to the charitable remainder trust. The investor establishes an irrevocable life insurance trust with a gift of the tax saving resulting from the income tax deduction, and names his heirs or others as beneficiaries. The trustee purchases a life insurance policy, in at least an amount equal to the purchase price of the tax exempt bonds, with the tax savings resulting from the tax deduction and places the asset in the life insurance trust to replace the amount of wealth contributed originally to the charitable remainder trust.
