Self cleaning pet fur stripping comb
A pet grooming tool, for use with a furry pet such as a dog or cat having loose hair and non-loose hair, is adapted for removing the loose hair from the pet. The grooming tool comprises a sharp edged comb with short tines mounted in front of an atrium open near the comb, and is also connected to a suction hose attached to a vacuum cleaner or similar.The comb is drawn through the pet's hair where it pulls loose undercoat and guard hairs, fleas, ticks, dander, and other items out of the animal's fur. When the tines are full, the comb is tipped on its trailing side and passed over a stripping pad or the animals hide. This pulls the hair mass out of the tines and deposits it at the entrance of the suction nozzle from whence it is whisked away by vacuum to a collection chamber.

Stator cascade of turbo type fluid machine
In the invention, stator blades are arranged in such a manner that respective intervals between the adjacent stator blades (SV) become unequal at least partly. If the stator blades are arranged as mentioned above, there are formed wave fronts having different moving directions and phases, and these wave fronts are interfered with each other so as to be attenuated. Accordingly, an interference noise is reduced. Therefore, in accordance with the invention, it is possible to reduce an interference noise without enlarging a rotor stator blade interval as well as reducing a used amount of a sound absorption material.

A mixed flow fan assembly uses induced reverse ambient air flow through the in-line motor enclosure for motor cooling, motor segregation from primary exhaust contamination, and augmentation of volumetric flow rate. Induced ambient airflow through openings in and / or around the base of the fan housing balances low pressure around the fan wheel and the inlet cone to inhibit primary exhaust recirculation and increase volumetric flow rate. Guide vanes downstream of the fan wheel are used to axially reorient radial and tangential velocity components of primary effluent flow. The geometry of the fan assembly is optimized to minimize exhaust gas recirculation and maximize overall efficiency.
