Abstract:

A wreath decoration system is used to enable users to mount a decorative acrylic plate to a wreath to enhance the decoration of the wreath. The system includes a first wire fastener, a second wire fastener, a support beam, a primary illumination source, a microcontroller, and a power supply system. The first wire fastener and the second wire fastener help secure the support beam to the wreath. The first wire fastener and the second wire fastener also help position the support beam behind the wreath so that the support beam is hidden behind the wreath leaves. The support beam centers the primary illumination source on the wreath. The primary illumination source illuminates any decoration positioned on the center of the wreath. The microcontroller enables the configuration of the settings of the primary illumination source. The power supply system supplies the voltage necessary to the primary illumination source and the microcontroller.

Abstract:

A system for converting propelling thrust to produce a continuous flow is provided. The system can be integrated and/or retrofitted to the body of an aircraft. The system includes a pressure-lowering device and a sample chamber. The pressure-lowering device is used produce a low-pressure, continuous flow from a high-velocity propelling thrust source. Moreover, the pressure-lowering device is a passive flow generator that does not require a power source in order to produce a continuous flow from a propelling thrust. The design of the pressure-lowering device produces a flow rate that is independent of the aircraft motion. The sample chamber is used to measure and analyze ambient gases which are pulled through the sample chamber by the pressure-lowering device, as a result of the high-velocity air stream produced by the propelling thrust source.
