A solar distillation apparatus configured to produce a distillate from a source liquid mixture, including a base member defining at least one flow path, a transparent cover panel spaced apart from the base member to define a volume therebetween; and an intermediate panel positioned between the base member and the transparent cover panel to divide the volume into an evaporation chamber and a condensation chamber, wherein the evaporation chamber communicates with the condensation chamber, the flow path of the base member is configured to carry the source liquid mixture in a first direction in the evaporation chamber to increase evaporation of a liquid from the source liquid mixture, and the evaporated liquid is configured to flow from the evaporation chamber in a second and opposite direction into the condensation chamber where the evaporated liquid condenses into the distillate.

Compact high-efficiency solar distillation device

The seat assembly for an interior of a motor vehicle comprises a seat back having a recess including a bottom, and a collapsible stroller having a deployed position and a retracted position adapted to be received in the recess. The stroller includes a pair of opposed frame members defining a plane, a pair of rear wheel support members, a pair of connecting links, and a pair of front wheel support members. Each of the rear wheel support members is connected to a frame member at a first connection point and pivotable thereabout between a first position corresponding to the deployed position of the stroller and a second position corresponding to the retracted position of the stroller. In their second position, the rear wheel support members lie substantially in the plane defined by the frame. A first end of each connecting link is pivotally connected to a frame member at a second connection point, such that each connecting link is movable between a first position corresponding to the deployed position of the stroller and a second position corresponding to the retracted position of the stroller. In their second position, the connecting links also lie substantially in the plane defined by the frame.
