Seating arrangements for passenger aircraft or other vehicles are detailed. Some arrangements position seats at offsets from a longitudinal axis of a vehicle cabin in either “V” shapes or herringbone patterns. Other arrangements include seats that are staggered within the cabin. Further arrangements include pairs of seat that are both parallel and offset from the longitudinal axis, but are placed so that feet of the port and starboard passengers point away from the fuselage. All embodiments contemplate providing seats that are convertible to beds, although this conversion is not required.

A system and method for an improved multiple hard-disk-drive data-storage enclosure. Some embodiments position drives in counter-rotating pairs, each simultaneously accessing half the data, such that seek-caused actuator rotational-acceleration vibration cause simultaneous canceling rotational torque. Some embodiments position the edge of a first drive (or drive pair) at an angle to the actuator midpoint of a nearby second drive (or drive pair), such that rotational-acceleration vibration from a seek-caused actuator rotation in the first drive does not cause a rotational movement into the second drive that affects the tracking or seek operation. Some further embodiments position drives in a herringbone pattern to redirect air flow in addition to reducing rotational-acceleration vibration interaction. Other embodiments include a printed wire circuit board mounted to reduce the rotational-acceleration vibration interaction.

The invention relates to a heat exchanger with an indentation pattern, and specifically a heat exchanger with heat exchanger plates (1) provided with a special pattern instead of the traditional herringbone pattern. The pattern comprises at least one section with bulges (2) and hollows (3), said bulges and hollows having flat tops and bottoms intended to be placed against respective hollows and bulges of a heat exchanger plate of a corresponding design. The surface area of said tops and bottoms is such in relation to the distance between the tops and bottoms that channels (6) for the flow of a medium are formed between the bulges.

A spacer panel is incorporated into building walls to drain accumulated moisture from the wall structure. The spacer panel is formed with spacer members that project on opposing sides of a central planar web member. Each spacer member is formed independently and has a planar portion extending around the spacer member to provide a location for the insertion of apertures to allow moisture to pass from one side of the panel to the other. Each spacer member includes a planar surface that facilitates an application of adhesive for attachment of a barrier member thereto. The spacer members can be oriented in a herringbone pattern alternating on opposing sides of the central web member. The spacer members can be formed as a circular projection extending on one side of the central web with a truncated conical member projecting to the opposing side of the central web from the circular projection.

One aspect of the invention relates to a method of forming a micro- or nano-pattern on the surface of a composite material. The pattern may be a herringbone pattern with a jog angle of greater than or less than 90° or a graded wrinkled pattern. The micro- or nano-patterns on composite materials produced by the methods may be used to modulate, confer or control thin film material properties; as the basis for thickness measurements; to enhance light extraction in OLED; to enhance light harvest in opto-electronic devices; to tune adhesion properties, wetting, and friction of surfaces; to reduce fluid flow drag; and for anti-fouling purposes.

[Problem] In a hydraulic dynamic bearing comprising a flanged shaft having a thrust ring portion and a cylinder portion, a single bag-like stepped sleeve, a presser ring and a lubricating oil sealed in a fine gap including a thrust gap formed between these bearing constituting members, the lubricating oil in a thrust dynamic pressure generating groove is prevented from being subjected a negative pressure in the vicinity of an inlet. [Means for Resolution] In case of a spiral pattern, the thrust dynamic pressure generating groove G2 is formed such that its depth becomes gradually deep from a side at which a flow velocity of the lubricating oil flowing through the thrust gap is low toward a side at which it is high. Further, in case of a herringbone pattern, the thrust dynamic pressure generating groove G2 is formed such that its depth becomes shallow in an inner peripheral face side than a return point R of the pattern and deep in an outer peripheral face side. An optimum groove depth ratio is 0.6 to 0.7.

The invention relates to a production method for a woolen shiner herringbone cloth, which is characterized in comprising the following steps: 80% 70 yarn count Australian wools and 20% polyamide fibers are adopted to be spun into 20 wool yarns, which are then combined into parallel yarns together with 150D bright terylene shiners and 30D polyamide fiber filaments; then, by means of weaving and post-finishing processes, the intended woolen shiner herringbone is produced. The production method combines woolen yarns and bright shiners to develop a fabric with herringbone-shaped patterns, which is a casual fashion fabric plain in appearance yet fashionable in style, with the excellent qualities, such as soft hand feeling, thinness as well as strong depth perception of the herringbone patterns. Therefore, the woolen shiner herringbone cloth has the advantages of softness and light weight, delicate fabric, strong depth perception, comfortableness for wearing, and easiness for maintenance.

A hydrodynamic bearing having a shaft relatively rotatable with respect to a surrounding sleeve and having a thrust plate on one end thereof rotating in a recess of the sleeve. The shaft is preferably interrupted by a equi-pressure groove accessing a central reservoir in the shaft and having journal bearings defined by herringbone patterns above and below the groove to stabilize and provide stiffness to the cartridge. The stiffness of the cartridge is further enhanced by a thrust plate carried at one end of the shaft and rotating in a recess of the sleeve and being used to define thrust bearings on either surface.

A method to produce a catalytic bed is initiated by forming apertures in a predetermined pattern on a strip or segment of thin foil. A pattern of desired channels is formed into the apertured foil, for example, as a herringbone pattern. The patterned foil is heat treated, and the surfaces of the foil are provided with at least one washcoat and at least one catalyzed coat, and cured. Cured foil in strip form is rolled into a multi-layer coil, or cured foil in segment form is stacked in multiple segment layers, to produce a desired geometric shape of the catalytic bed. The channels between layers of foil are offset in each successive layer to preclude channel nesting. The offset channels and apertures provide turbulent longitudinal and radial flow of a desired material throughout the catalytic bed.

A heat exchanger comprises a number of identical heat exchanger plates stacked in a stack. Every other heat exchanger plate is turned 180 degrees in its plane relative to its neighboring plates, and each heat exchanger plate comprises at least four port openings and a herringbone pattern comprising pressed ridges and grooves. The ridges and grooves are adapted to keep the plates on a distance from one another under formation of flow channels, wherein areas around the port openings are arranged on different levels, such that selective flow from the port openings to the flow channels is achieved. Dents are arranged in the ridges and grooves in the vicinity of any of the port openings, said dents being arranged to increase the flow resistance to promote a more even flow distribution in said flow channel.

Demountable modular structure for the construction of one-deck raised parking lots, preferably without foundations, designed to be employed for parking vehicles in angled arrangement, or herringbone pattern, including two or more parallel structure strips, each one defined by two rows of pillars offset from each other in the longitudinal direction of the structure strip so as to form, between two adjacent couples of pillars, parallelogram-shaped portions of ground surface, wherein the upper level is made of an orthogonal network of main beams resting on each one of the rows of pillars and secondary beams resting on the pillars or fixed in orthogonal position to the main beams, and of rectangular or square floor slabs. The structure allows easier parking and maneuvering of larger vehicles as compared with structures with 90-degree parking stalls, with no detectable losses of efficiency in terms of parking places obtainable from a given available surface.
