QUICK CONNECTOR DETECTION TOOL AND METHOD
20180119858 · 2018-05-03 ·

A tool for confirming the connection status of a fluid line to a quick-connect fluid coupling assembly includes a hub portion configured to interface with an outer portion of the fluid line, a finger coupled to the hub portion, a handle portion, a spring portion coupled to the hub portion and to the handle portion, and an indicating means. When the tool is placed in contact with the fluid line, a biasing force is applied to the tool in an axial direction, and a torque is applied to the handle portion to rotate the handle portion by a predetermined amount about the longitudinal axis of the fluid line, the finger cooperates with the retaining clip to produce a reaction torque to activate the indicating means when the fluid line is properly connected to the fluid coupling assembly.

Temperature control system and control method of temperature control system

A temperature control system according to one embodiment includes: a refrigeration apparatus in which a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve and an evaporator are connected in this order for circulating a refrigerant; a fluid circulation apparatus that causes a fluid to be heat-exchanged in the evaporator, then sends the fluid to a temperature control object, and again causes the fluid having passed through the temperature control object to be heat-exchanged in the evaporator, the fluid circulation apparatus having a heater at a position downstream of the temperature control object and upstream of the evaporator; and a control apparatus. The control apparatus activates the heater to heat the fluid by the heater, when the fluid circulation apparatus has become in a no-load operation state or a no-load-operation transition operation state, wherein the no-load operation state is a state in which the fluid and the temperature control object do not heat-exchange, the no-load-operation transition operation state is a state that is in transition to the no-load operation state.

Lifting and transporting device
