A convertible supporting device includes a base, rotatable portion, and a rotation mechanism. The base is for a supporting device having a bottom surface. When exposed, the bottom surface of the supporting device is for contact with another surface to provide support for a user of the supporting device. The rotatable portion is coupled to the base and is rotatable relative to the base. The rotatable portion includes a work plate including an upper surface and a lower surface. The work plate defines through holes across a plate thickness between the upper surface and the lower surface. The rotatable portion also includes one or more elements, a portion of which is exposed beyond the lower surface of the work plate. The rotation mechanism connects the base and the rotatable portion.
摘要:
A sprayhead for a pour over coffee brewing machine for delivering hot water to coffee grounds held in a brew basket therebelow, has a housing with a water inlet at one end thereof, which is connectable to an intermittent source of hot water. A holding chamber for accumulating a quantity of hot water therein is located within the housing and is connected to the water inlet. A dispensing chamber is located within the housing and below the holding chamber, in use. A bell siphon located in the holding chamber delivers the accumulated quantity of water from the holding chamber to the dispensing chamber, and thence to the coffee grounds, once the water level in the holding chamber rises above an open end of a siphon tube.
摘要:
In a particular embodiment, a system includes a controller adapted to determine a data transfer rate associated with at least one data stream to be written to a storage media and to selectively activate at least one of a first memory and a second memory based on the data transfer rate to record the at least one data stream.
摘要:
A valve for controlling fluid flow may include a conduit with an inlet and an outlet. A modulating orifice of the valve can include a flow passage, the size of which can be varied by movement of a flow control element that moves in response to rotation of a magnetic rotor acted upon by a stator of a motor. The magnetic rotor can be submerged within a fluid passing through the conduit of the valve. Apparatus, systems and methods of use and making of valves having one or more of these features are described.
摘要:
Described herein is a shock mitigation apparatus. More specifically, a shock mitigation apparatus which relates to a new and improved seating system, such as may be utilised in a marine environment, able to absorb shocks transmitted to the seat system from a structure to which the seat is affixed. The shock mitigation apparatus includes a tuneable spring to alter and/or control flexure within the spring in three planes of movement (longitudinal surge, vertical heave and lateral sway) and axes of rotation (roll, pitch and yaw) depending on occupant and/or particular application.
