摘要： A fuel efficient aircraft propulsion system comprises a wingtip mounted ducted pusher fan with convergent backwash and a skewed conical engine nacelle. The system both mitigates wingtip vortex drag and converts a portion of vortex energy into propulsion force and lift force. The forward-tapering nacelle skews both downward and inward, so the lower nacelle surface is flush with the lower wing surface and the inboard nacelle surface does not alter flow over the upper wing surface. This firstly preserves lift at the outboard wing end. Secondly, air displacement by the nacelle accelerates flow only on the outboard and upper nacelle surfaces, and because the nacelle occupies the core of the nascent wingtip vortex, rotational air velocity is greatest on the upper nacelle surface. The resultant pressure drop on the upper nacelle surface contributes to aircraft lift. And because the nacelle surface tapers forward, this pressure drop does not exert backward-acting drag on the aircraft. Aft of the nacelle, the pusher fan hub surface conforms with the aft nacelle surface and tapers aft. Propulsion foils project from the forward portion of the pusher fan hub at an outward-aft angle, which directs convergent high pressure backwash flow along the aft tapering hub surface. This isolates aft-facing hub surfaces from drag-inducing vortex core pressure drop. Downstream fan backwash convergence then forms a central volume of high pressure flow where the low pressure trailing vortex core would otherwise develop. This is an efficient means to dissipate the cyclonic structure of the vortex, because vortex persistence requires low pressure core persistence. The direction of pusher fan rotation opposes the direction of wingtip vortex rotation as described in the prior art. This cross-flow interaction increases the effective power of the fan and also further counters vortex formation. An integral peripheral duct links the outer ends of the fan propulsion foils to provide thrust efficiency similar to that of a high bypass fanjet engine, but without the internal air friction within a bypass channel. In an alternative horizontal axis wind turbine embodiment, the same nacelle form supports secondary power-takeoff turbines mounted in high energy density flow at the turbine blade tips.

摘要： A rocking chair provides abdominal exercise by user actuation of pivotal armrest handles that are configured to provide a crunch type exercise motion. The arrangement of internal pivot frames is such that armrest handle actuation shifts the user's center of mass both vertically and longitudinally, which in turn initiates a natural rocking motion by gravity. The inertial dynamics of the resulting motion are inherently kinesthetically pleasurable. The resistance is provided by the user's own body weight with variation through differential leverage. Alternatively, the configuration of the armrest handles is such that a user may benefit from an isometric exercise by simply holding them stationary in a conventional armrest position.

摘要： An articulated patient support platform cyclically expands and contracts a patient's lung volume, to both support breathing and mobilize lung tissue. In the lung expansion phase, a change in angle between a leg and hip supporting portion and a chest and head supporting portion causes extension the patient's spine, which increases the distance between the patient's sternum and spine. In the lung contraction phase, the reverse change in this angle causes flexion the patient's spine, which decreases the distance between the sternum and spine. A cycle of increase and decrease in spine-sternum distance expands and contracts lung volume in the manor of a bellows. Motorized operation of the platform thereby provides non-invasive natural breathing support. A corollary benefit of this lung expansion/contraction cycle is mobilization of lung tissue, which is beneficial in reducing post-operative pneumonia risk.

摘要： An autonomous submersible vessel employs ambient wave energy to both propel itself and to generate required onboard electrical power. The vessel comprises a ballast stabilized stator portion and a rotor portion with wings rotated by wave-induced orbital water particle motion. Phased power generation resists rotor portion rotation when the horizontal component of water motion is in the desired direction of navigation, so increased hydrodynamic drag at that time acts to pull the vessel forward. The vessel further comprises a means to collect and preserve plankton samples. The vessel design enables alternate operation as an oceanographic glider to also navigate in deep water and in calm seas.

摘要： An omnidirectional rocking chair for abdominal exercise has a rectangular support base with a convex lower support surface with variable radii of curvature. The chair back supports only the user's lower back. Rocking the chair develops outward momentum in the mass of the user's upper back, arms and head. The minimum lower support surface radius of curvature is in its central portion and the center of that curvature is above the center of gravity of the seated user and chair. The peripheral portions of the lower support surface have larger radii of curvature. The corner portions of the lower support surface have maximum radii of curvature. The effect of progressive increase in support surface radius of curvature is to increase righting moment in the rocking motion where the respective larger radii portions contact the floor. This acts to decelerate outward rocking motion in the chair seat and user's lower back in opposition to the developed outward momentum in the mass of the user's upper back, arms, and head, which engages user abdominal trunk muscles.

摘要： A free stream fluid kinetic energy conversion device combines a large diameter freewheeling primary rotor with small diameter secondary power takeoff rotors placed within the lift induced blade tip vortices of the primary rotor. This enables use of high rotational speed generating units and avoids diseconomy of scale in gearbox expense. The device partially recovers otherwise lost blade tip vortex energy. The freewheeling primary rotor transmits no reaction torque to the support structure. Resilient buoyant tether deployment accommodates transient eddy induced structural loads.
