  2. Ball Chair - Wikipedia

    I covered the plywood body mould with wet paper and laminated the surface with fiberglass, rubbed down the outside, removed the mould from inside, had it upholstered and added the leg. In the end I installed the red telephone on the inside wall of the chair. The naming part of the chair was easy, the BALL CHAIR was born. —

  3. Ball valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_valve

    A ball valve is a flow control device which uses a hollow, perforated, and pivoting ball to control fluid flowing through it. It is open when the hole through the middle of the ball is in line with the flow inlet, and closed when it is pivoted 90 degrees by the valve handle, blocking the flow. [1]

  4. Reentry capsule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reentry_capsule

    The Apollo Command Module reentered with the center of mass offset from the center line; this caused the capsule to assume an angled attitude through the air, providing a sideways lift to be used for directional control. Rotational thrusters were used to steer the capsule under either automatic or manual control by changing the lift vector.

    The Apollo 1 spacecraft weighed approximately 45,000 pounds (20,000 kg), while the Block II Apollo 7 weighed 36,400 lb (16,500 kg). (These two Earth orbital craft were lighter than the craft which later went to the Moon, as they carried propellant in only one set of tanks, and did not carry the high-gain S-band antenna.)

  6. Valve seat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_seat

    Valve seats are often formed by first press-fitting an approximately cylindrical piece of a hardened metal alloy, such as Stellite, into a cast depression in a cylinder head above each eventual valve stem position, [1] and then machining a conical-section surface into the valve seat that will mate with a corresponding conical section of the ...

    The cable was connected to a cylindrical weight inside a tube. The weight rested on a lever controlled by a pneumatic solenoid valve. When the valve was actuated from the Launch Control Center (LCC), the pneumatic pressure of 600 psi (4,100 kPa) GN2 (nitrogen gas) rotated the lever down allowing the weight to drop down the tube.

  8. Heart valve repair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_valve_repair

    Mitral valve repair is mainly used to treat stenosis (narrowing) or regurgitation (leakage) of the mitral valve. [citation needed] A mitral balloon valvuloplasty enlarges the valve opening to allow greater oxygenated blood flow into the left ventricle, and since severe mitral regurgitation can be a major complication, degrees of stenosis, regurgitation, and valve anatomical features are taken ...

  9. Red and Blue Chair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_and_Blue_Chair

    The Red and Blue Chair is a chair designed in 1917 by Gerrit Rietveld. It represents one of the first explorations by the De Stijl art movement in three dimensions. It features several Rietveld joints. The original chair was constructed of unstained beech wood and was not painted red, blue, yellow, and black until around 1923.
