Abstract:
A respiratory mask is provided with an eye shield having a body portion which is releasably-secured to the mask, and a shield portion which shields the eyes of the wearer. The shield portion is self-supporting on the body portion and, hence, on the mask, and includes a sheet of transparent, eye-shielding, material which can be replaced if it becomes marked or damaged. The shield portion can be pivoted forwards, relative to the mask, so that it is removed from the line of vision of the wearer without affecting the respiratory protection provided by the mask. A valve arrangement in the body portion of the eye shield can divert air from the mask into the shield portion, to remove contaminants from the region around the eyes of the wearer.
Abstract:
In an aspect, an apparatus for predicting downhole conditions is disclosed. The apparatus comprises at least a processor and a memory communicatively connected to the at least a processor. The memory containing instructions configuring the at least a processor to receive a condition datum. The memory additionally contains instructions configuring the at least a processor to produce a measured downhole condition using at least a sensor. The memory instructs the processor to convert the condition datum and the measured downhole conditions into a cleansed data format using a data conversion module. The processor is instructed by the memory to identify a flagged data as a function of the cleansed condition datum and the cleansed measured downhole conditions using a downhole machine learning model. The memory instructs the processor to generate a predicted downhole condition as a function of the flagged data.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for generating a compiled artificial intelligence (AI) model. The apparatus incudes a processor that is configured to receive data sets from user devices. The processor is further configured to convert the data sets using a machine-learning model into a cleansed data format and generate an accumulated model using the converted data sets as training data.
Abstract:
An item of footwear for increasing leg-muscle and/or lower-abdominal-/back-muscle tone comprising: a strap arrangement for securing the item of footwear to a foot of a user; and a sole comprising at least an upper layer, for engaging a foot of a user in use or a further upper layer, and a lower layer, for engaging the ground in use, wherein the upper layer comprises two or more materials of different compressive resistances, or densities, arranged as a frontal/toe region, an arch region and a heel region, the sole is arranged such that application of a user's weight, during use, causes instability in at least one portion of the upper layer, which requires balance correction by a user.
Abstract:
A prechamber assembly includes a cylinder head including a coolant cavity, a prechamber body located within the cylinder head, the prechamber body including a nozzle, and an annular sleeve radially surrounding a portion of the prechamber body. The sleeve includes a plurality of coolant inlet holes. A portion of the prechamber body is radially spaced from the sleeve to form a coolant sleeve annulus extending along a length of the prechamber body above the coolant inlet holes. The coolant cavity and the coolant sleeve annulus are in fluid communication through the plurality of coolant inlet holes.
Abstract:
A system including: a HEP generator creating HEP generator exhaust; a prime engine creating prime engine exhaust; a SCR system through which the prime engine exhaust and the HEP generator exhaust run; an HEP generator exhaust pipe running from the HEP generator to an exhaust mixing duct where the HEP generator exhaust is mixed with the prime engine exhaust, wherein the HEP generator exhaust pipe discharges into the exhaust mixing duct at a distance from the SCR less than ten times the diameter of the exhaust mixing duct; and a single urea injector injecting urea into the HEP generator exhaust pipe at a distance from the exhaust mixing duct of more than ten diameters of the HEP generator exhaust pipe.
Abstract:
A two stage clutch and shift actuation paddle assembly provides clutch disengagement through a first range of movement of a manually operated control lever or paddle and electronic shifting of a transmission upon movement through a second range. A return spring force generator causes a lower return force to be exerted on the generator paddle in a range of motion wherein the clutch is disengaged and a pronounced increased spring force to be exerted in advanced range of motion wherein the transmission shift actuation occurs.

Abstract:
A conventional extension ladder modified to incorporate a foldable-platform-equipped trolley that can be raised and lowered with an electrically-powered winch. An open-channel guide rail is secured to each side of each section of the extension ladder, the guide rails extending the entire length of each section. Each side of the trolley is equipped with upper and lower sets of rotatable guide wheels. Each set comprises three guide wheels in stacked alignment. The trolley always runs on at least one pair of guide rails on opposite sides of the ladder, and may be running on both pairs of guide rails when it is positioned in the region of ladder section overlap. The trolley is equipped with upright posts to which a hand rail is secured. Extendable standards on the ladder base provide additional stability, and a pair of large wheels enhance ladder mobility.
Abstract:
According to the present disclosure, a train comprising one or more locomotives coupled to one or more tenders, which contain at least one of an exhaust after-treatment or a waste heat recovery system and optionally one or more other locomotive subsystems, such as dynamic braking, energy storage, driven wheels, and fuel storage, is provided. Accordingly, the present disclosure may have one or more of the following advantages: a tender to house an exhaust after-treatment system thereby easing space constraints on the locomotive power traction car. Additionally, said tender may include a large fuel tank, waste heat recovery system, and energy storage, thereby providing the means to substantially decrease fuel consumption or increase power, both with the option of switching to a different fuel source.
