It´s invention Friday!

Here we go again… Yet we present another invention that was uploaded on inpama. com.

This week it is the Silver-Skin.

The Silver-Skin® textile offers a unique combination of natural features and is based on entirely pure components, providing functionality in a new design and style. The Silver-Skin® textile is based on the innovative combination of silver and cotton, as silver provides a number of outstanding natural properties:

• High electrical conductivity
• Excellent thermal conductivity
• Strong optical reflectivity
• Antibacterial protection

Extra flat seams on the outside of the garment as well as labels on the outside ensure perfect wearing comfort without irritating the skin. Along with its high protective properties, this new textile is also perfectly suitable for the everyday life, providing a previously unknown multi-functionality, protection and comfort, the inventors say.

It´s invention Friday!

Thank God it´s Friday… and this also means that today we introduce you another invention from inpama.com. Remember, last week we told you that from now on each Friday we will present you an idea from our internet patent marketplace? Here we go!

This week it is the Chamber Air Humidifier.

The invention relates to a chamber air humidifier, comprising at least one open liquid container and an additional fixing element for the subsequent fixing of the at least one liquid container to a through oven tube, wherein in order to achieve a simplified removal and the posibility of a movable connection of the container, the fixing element may be directly connected to the oven tube.

From the early bird straight to the Tendence

Are you curious how the Lifestyle Fair early bird in Hamburg, Germany was? It was just great! Here are some impressions:

























As you can see we had a lot of visitors and a lot of fun. At our stand we showed the interested crowd a whole bunch of new products. The Alpine Air for instance or our trendy stamps.

And the next fair we will participate at is already coming up. Stay tuned, soon we tell you more about our visit and stand at the Tendence in Frankfurt, Germany, which will take place from August 24th until August 28th.

inpama.com offers a lot of ideas: Here´s one

As we already told you inpama.com is an online platform for inventors, manufacturers, licensees and investors to meet and work together. It is the marketplace to sell inventions and patents on your own.

Since inpama.com lists a lot of great inventions we also want to show them on this blog. From now on every Friday we will introduce you one.

So let´s get started!… with the ball rider LA.

To ride it you only need gras and a slope. The ball rider LA is driven in a sitting position. The front wheel is controlled by the legs and arms. A special seat design provides for shifting the focus towards the inside of the curve. So that an elegant curve for everyone is possible, even for handicapped persons.
