| 20120067064 | THERMO-ELECTRIC STRUCTURE - The invention is a split-thermo-electric structure for cooling, heating, or stabilizing the temperature of an object or for electric power generation. The structure of the invention is comprised of one or more legs comprised of two or more layers of thermo-electric material and a connection layer ( | 03-22-2012 |
| 20120042661 | SPLIT THERMO-ELECTRIC CYCLES FOR SIMULTANEOUS COOLING, HEATING, AND TEMPERATURE CONTROL - The invention is new types of split-thermo-electric structures for cooling, heating, or stabilizing the temperature of an object or for electric power generation. In a first type of structure the transport of the electric current between the heat absorbing and the heat dispersing sides of the structure is disengaged from the flow of heat between the sides of the thermo-electric structure. In a second type of structure a layer of thermo-electric material on the heat absorbing side of the structure is connected by connection layers to two or more layers of thermo-electric material on the heat dispersing side of the structure. In a third type of structure the elements of which the structure is comprised are arranged to cause different values of electric current to flow at the heat absorbing and the heat dispersing sides of the structure and through different elements in the interior of the structure. | 02-23-2012 |
| 20110100406 | SPLIT THERMO-ELECTRIC STRUCTURE AND DEVICES AND SYSTEMS THAT UTILIZE SAID STRUCTURE - The invention is a Split-Thermo-Electric Structure (STES) and devices and systems that utilize said structure. The STES comprises a first thermo-electric element at an elevated temperature and a second thermo-electric element at a low (cold) temperature. The first thermo-electric element and the second thermo-electric element are connected by either an intermediate connection that conducts both electric current and heat or by a thermo-electric chain comprised of one or more thermo-electric elements. Each pair of the thermo-electric elements in the chain are connected by an intermediate connection that conducts both electric current and heat. Each of the thermo-electric elements and each of the intermediate connections in the STES exhibit a temperature-gradient. The STESs can be utilized in Seebeck or Peltier devices. The STESs can be utilized to construct devices comprised a plurality of n-type and p-type pairs of STESs, wherein each of the STESs in the device are connected at each end to a support layer. One of the support layers can be thermally connected to a heat source and the second support layer thermally connected to a heat sink in order to create a thermo-electric system. The heat source or the heat sink or both can be located at a distance from their respective support layer. | 05-05-2011 |
