    摘要: A method of monitoring a refrigerant leak. The method includes monitoring, by a first controller, operation of a first HVAC system for conditioning air within a first level of a residence, monitoring, by a second controller, operation of a second HVAC system for conditioning air within a second level of the residence and determining, using a plurality of leak detectors, whether refrigerant within the first HVAC system is leaking. Responsive to a positive determination in the determining step, receiving, by the first controller, a refrigerant leak warning signal, forwarding, by the first controller to the second controller, the refrigerant leak warning signal. Responsive to receiving the refrigerant leak warning signal from the first controller, activating, by the second controller, a variable-speed circulation fan of the second HVAC system.

    摘要: A knit garment having a knit technical wire is disclosed herein. The knit technical wire has two interwoven knit layers, such that they form an exterior or outward surface and an interior or body-facing surface. In between the exterior and interior surfaces and are at least one strand of yarn. The yarn may be a TPU yarn. The knit technical wire is used instead of a conventional underwire. The garment may be a woman's bra or dress that may conventionally be made with an underwire.

    摘要: Embodiments of a tree stand for mounting to a tree trunk are disclosed. The tree stand includes a platform and a pair of oppositely disposed arms. The pair of oppositely disposed arms are configured to grip the tree trunk in a closed position and are separable to release the tree trunk in an open position. The platform is connected to the pair of oppositely arms so that the platform is mountable to the tree trunk when the pair of oppositely disposed arms grip the tree trunk in the closed position. The arms thus make it much easier to mount the tree stand and increase the stability and safety of the tree stand.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a gas measuring system for measuring the presence of a predetermined gas including a light source and a light receiver separated by a gas volume, the light source emitting light within a chosen range of wavelengths including characteristic absorption wavelengths of the gas to be measured and the light receiver being capable of detecting light in said wavelength range and the system including a spectrum analyzer and a storage means for storing the specific absorption wavelengths of the gas thus to recognize a gas absorbing at said specific wavelengths. The storage means also includes specific absorption wavelengths characterizing at least one other material having absorption wavelengths partially overlapping the absorption wavelengths of said gas, and thus detect the material in the volume. The system includes an analyzer unit being adapted to detect said other material from the gas measurements so as to distinguish between said material and gas in the volume, and to provide a measure of said gas.
