  2. List of Dyson products - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Dyson_products

    A separate motor drives the brushroll, unlike the DC07 and DC14, which use power from the main motor via clutches. This made the DC17 the most effective of Dyson cleaners on carpeting. The third change is a new colour scheme for the DC17, and also the Dyson DC16 Root 6 Handheld; the bright colours and silver tones are toned down in favour of ...

  3. Wind generated current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_generated_current

    A Wind generated current is a flow in a body of water that is generated by wind friction on its surface. Wind can generate surface currents on water bodies of any size. The depth and strength of the current depend on the wind strength and duration, and on friction and viscosity losses, [1] but are limited to about 400 m depth by the mechanism, and to lesser depths where the water is shallower.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyson_(company)

    Dyson Limited, d.b.a Dyson, is a Singaporean–British multinational technology company. [7] Founded in 1991 by James Dyson in Malmesbury , England, the company designs and manufactures household appliances such as vacuum cleaners , air purifiers , hand dryers , bladeless fans , heaters , hair dryers , and lights.

  5. Fan (machine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_(machine)

    Standalone fans are usually powered by an electric motor, often attached directly to the motor's output, with no gears or belts. The motor is either hidden in the fan's center hub or extends behind it. For big industrial fans, three-phase asynchronous motors are commonly used, may be placed near the fan, and drive it through a belt and pulleys.

  6. Ocean current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_current

    Surface oceanic currents are driven by wind currents, the large scale prevailing winds drive major persistent ocean currents, and seasonal or occasional winds drive currents of similar persistence to the winds that drive them, [6] and the Coriolis effect plays a major role in their development. [7]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyson_sphere

    A hypothetical depiction of a Dyson swarm surrounding a star Freeman Dyson, the first scientist to explore the concept. A Dyson sphere is a hypothetical megastructure that encompasses a star and captures a large percentage of its power output.

  8. Dyson Airblade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyson_Airblade

    The Dyson Airblade is claimed by its manufacturer to dry hands in 10 seconds and to use less electricity than conventional hand dryers. [ 1 ] The first commercially available high-speed, horizontal-wiping air dryer was the Mitsubishi Jet Towel, developed since 1991 and introduced in 1993. [ 3 ]

  9. Reduction drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduction_drive

    Reduction drives can be a gear train design or belt driven. Planetary reduction drives are typically attached between the shaft of the variable capacitor and the tuning knob of any radio, to allow fine adjustments of the tuning capacitor with smooth movements of the knob. Planetary drives are used in this situation to avoid "backlash", which ...
