Abstract:
A gas separation apparatus includes an irradiation chamber for receiving a gas. An irradiation device irradiates the gas within the irradiation chamber for causing molecules of the gas to break apart into larger and smaller constituent components. A separation arrangement separates the larger and smaller constituent components from each other within the irradiation chamber by forcing the larger and smaller constituent components toward different regions of the irradiation chamber. An outlet removes the smaller constituent components from the irradiation chamber.

Abstract:
A docking station includes a charging tray mountable to an underside of a surface that is formed of an electromagnetic transmissive material. A mobile wireless energy transfer unit is smaller than the surface and is received for movement on the charging tray. A detection system detects a position on the surface of an electrical device. An alignment system positions the mobile wireless energy transfer unit on the charging tray. A controller is communicatively coupled to the mobile wireless energy transfer unit, detection system, and alignment system. The controller executes a docking application that enables the docking station to: (i) determine, based on an input signal received from the detection system, the position of the electrical device; (ii) control the alignment system to position the mobile wireless energy transfer unit beneath the electrical device; and (iii) activate the mobile wireless energy transfer unit to wirelessly charge the electrical device.

Abstract:
The present invention is an optimized geometry for stacking multiple windings, where each winding multiple-turn coil having both a start lead and a finish lead on a perimeter of the coil. The start lead of each winding of the stack is indexed respective of adjacent windings of the stack.
Abstract:
A single-acting (two pistons) or double-acting (four pistons) alpha configuration Stirling engine has increased thermal exchange between a hot piston crown and a hot head and between a cold piston crown and a cold head of each piston cylinder assembly, increasing conversion of thermal energy to mechanical motion. The thermal exchange is provided by presenting corresponding transverse peaks and valley that create increased surface area and increased convective fluid flow rate for a working gas sealed in the Stirling engine.
