An apparatus for a wireless power transfer ('WPT') pad heat management system includes a ferrite structure positioned adjacent to a coil configured to wirelessly transfer power. The apparatus includes a plurality of heat spreaders positioned along a length of a component of the ferrite structure. Each of the plurality of heat spreaders is non-metallic. The apparatus includes a trough shaped to surround at least a portion of each of the plurality of heat spreaders, wherein the trough is non-metallic. The apparatus includes a phase change material ('PCM') in the trough where at least a portion of the heat spreaders extend into the PCM. The ferrite structure, coil, plurality of heat spreaders, trough and PCM are encased in a solid material, and each of the plurality of heat spreaders comprises a material that transfers heat from the component of the ferrite structure to the PCM.

A refrigerated liquid dispensing system includes a cabinet having a refrigerated compartment. At least one liquid container such as a water bottle is mounted in a receptacle in the compartment. A valve is mounted to the neck of the bottle for controlling the flow of liquid from the bottle. In one practice of the invention the valve is actuated by a spring plunger mounted to the door of the compartment so that the valve can be actuated without opening the door to dispense water from a valve stem into a cup in a cup holder area below the compartment. In a further practice of the invention the valve is actuated by opening the door and acting directly on the valve. When the door opens a valve extension automatically slides outwardly so that a dispensing opening in the valve extension is disposed against a cup in the cup holder area.

In a repair kit for a broken rake arm in an automatic bowling pin setting machine, an elongated rigid sleeve is slipped over the rake arm such that the sleeve straddles the break. A fastener is threaded through the wall of the sleeve and grippingly bears against the outside surface of the rake arm. The sleeve is provided with a rigid strap that extends past the end of the sleeve in order to permit the accomodation of one end of a spring thereto. In one embodiment a right and left hand kit is required for the right and left hand rake arms of the bowling pin setting machine. Two other embodiments provide repair kits that are selectively useable as either a right hand kit or a left hand kit.
