20140158313 | DEFORMABLE GUIDE FOR A ROLLABLE DOOR, ROLLABLE DOOR GUIDING SYSTEM HAVING A DEFORMABLE GUIDE, AND DOOR USING THE SAME - A deformable guide for a rollable door is disclosed. The guide has two wall portions. One wall portion defines a longitudinal edge while another wall portion defines an inner longitudinal planar face. Together, the inner longitudinal planar face and the longitudinal edge define a longitudinal slot. The guide receives, via the longitudinal slot, a longitudinal end section of a rollable door side strip, the inner longitudinal planar face of the guide providing a mating surface for a planar surface of the side strip. A longitudinal rib of the longitudinal end section of the side strip is maintained within the guide. The side strip is released by widening of the longitudinal slot upon application on the side strip of a force exceeding a predetermined threshold. A guiding system including the deformable guide and the side strip and a rollable door including the guiding system are also disclosed. | 06-12-2014 |

20080227571 | Tennis backboard - The invention provides a new tennis backboard design. The backboard includes a firm backing layer underlying a soft deadening layer. The rebound of a tennis ball from the backboard is reduced as compared to rebound from a rigid hard-surface backboard. This allows a player to stand fairly close to the backboard, which reduces misses. The player can stand fairly close and hit balls hard against the backboard. Because the rebound is reduced, the ball simply bounces back softly and easily to the player, allowing the player to hit hard again from a fairly short distance. Thus, long rallies without missing are easily achieved. Since the bounce is reduced, the player can stand closer to the backboard, and therefore the backboard can be smaller than conventional backboards without the player missing the backboard. This allows the backboard to be light, portable, and easily stored. Because of the addition of a soft deadening layer, the firm backing layer of the backboard can also be thin and made of lighter and weaker material than a conventional backboard, reducing the weight of the backboard. | 09-18-2008 |
20090162914 | Bio-recycling of carbon dioxide emitted from power plants - The invention provides a method to decrease emission of carbon dioxide from combustion of fossil fuels or other hydrocarbons and to enhance the efficiency of methane production from anaerobic biodigesters. The invention involves feeding carbon dioxide from the exhaust gas of hydrocarbon fuel combustion to an anaerobic biodigester where biomass is anaerobically fermented to produce methane. Carbon dioxide is an electron acceptor for anaerobic fermentation, and thus some of the carbon dioxide is reduced to methane, which can again be used for fuel. In this way, at least a portion of the exhaust gas CO | 06-25-2009 |
