University of Kashmir Innovators Awarded Patents for Revolutionary Designs
A group of student innovators and faculty from the Department of Electronics and Instrumentation Technology (DEIT) at the University of Kashmir (KU) have recently been awarded patents by the Patent Authority of India for their groundbreaking designs, which are set to transform traditional practices across various industries.
The team’s first patented creation, the ‘Twist Ease Clean (TEC)’ tank, presents an innovative method for cleaning water tanks. With a central twisting mechanism inspired by bottle cap threading, the TEC tank ensures even weight distribution and stable handling. This design greatly reduces the torque and force needed for lifting and carrying the tank, improving both safety and efficiency for users.
The TEC tank includes user-friendly features such as strategically placed handles for better grip and leverage, making it easier to access the tank’s interior for cleaning. By removing the need for individuals to enter confined spaces during maintenance, this design reduces the risks associated with traditional cleaning methods, including injuries and exposure to harmful substances. Additionally, the tank’s removable half section further enhances safety during maintenance.
The inventors of the TEC tank include Jehangir Hameed Lone, Syed Kashif Jeelani Alvi, Sajid Noor, Umhara Rasool, Dr. Javaid Ahmad Sheikh, Dr. Abdul Mueed Hafiz, and Saqlain Mushtaq, demonstrating a collaborative effort to drive innovation and address industry challenges.
Previously, another team of KU innovators received a Design Registration for their patented “Starch-Free Rice Cooker.” This electro-mechanical device modernizes traditional rice cooking by removing starch, catering to the dietary needs of diabetics. The cooker also features a remote cooking option, enabling real-time monitoring of the rice’s starch levels via text message, adding a new level of convenience to culinary technology.
