A centrifugal compressor is configured to be used for compressing a low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant. The centrifugal compressor comprises a casing, an impeller, and a motor for rotating the impeller. The impeller is equipped with blades having a fully nonlinear shape in a quasi-orthogonal cross-sectional view. A hub-side blade angle delta of each of the blades from a hub portion of the first impeller to a mid-span position of the blade varies along a streamwise direction such that the hub-side blade angle delta is largest at a position closer to a leading edge of the first blade than to a trailing edge of the first blade. The casing is configured such that the low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant enters the impeller from the inlet portion along an axial direction of the impeller and exits the impeller to the outlet portion in a radial direction of the impeller.

Display assemblies as disclosed herein are configured for attachment with a vulcanized rubber article and are provided in the form of different material layers. Display assemblies generally comprise one or more display layers of elastomeric material configured to provide a desired display indicia, an intermediate layer formed from an elastomeric material different from that of the one or more display layers, and an adhesive layer wherein the intermediate layer is interposed between the adhesive layer and the one or more display layers. The one more display layers may be configured to act together or separately to provide a desired display indicia to provide a desired visual display or feature on the surface of the vulcanized rubber article, which may be a sidewall surface of a tire.

The decorative decal assembly () is configured to be secured within a recessed surface () of a weight plate () and includes an adhesive layer (), a printable surface () of an adjacent ink protective printing layer (), and one or more print decals () secured to the printable surface () and between an upper support surface () of the adhesive layer () and the ink protective layer (). The recessed surface () defines a display area () surrounded on all sides by an expansion zone () extending between the display area () and the shoulders () of the weight plate () that define the recessed surface () to permit limited expansion of perimeter edges (A,B) of the decal assembly () into the expansion zone () without contacting the shoulders () whenever the weight plate () experiences a bounce shock.

Decorative decal assembly for a weight plate

The system () includes at least one elastomeric, vulcanizable ink () that defines a decorative decal image (). The decal image () has perimeter edges () and a display area () extending between the perimeter edges (). The vulcanizable ink is vulcanized upon a carrier sheet (). A heat-activated adhesive layer () is applied to overlie the display area () of the decal image (), and the heat-activated adhesive layer () is also partially activated upon the display area () of the decal image (). The decorative decal image () having the partially activated adhesive layer () is then thermally transferable to a vulcanized rubber product () such as a side wall () of an automotive tire (), after which the carrier sheet () is removed.
