Fluid control device
A fluid control device includes a case including an internal space that is partitioned by a partition wall into an air blowing chamber and a control chamber. A dividing wall is disposed inside the air blowing chamber to partition an internal space of the air blowing chamber into a first air blowing chamber and a second air blowing chamber. A fan unit is housed in the second air blowing chamber. A differential pressure sensor senses a differential pressure between a pressure inside the first air blowing chamber and a pressure inside the second air blowing chamber. A controller controls a fan based on the sensed differential pressure.
Low energy idling for a compressed air system
An air compressor system includes a motor operably connected to an air compressor, a separator tank fluidly connected to the air compressor by a supply line, a compressed air line coupled to the separator tank, a service valve connected to the compressed air line and positioned downstream of the separator tank, and a controller in operable communication with the motor, wherein in response to the controller detecting the motor operating at an idle speed, the controller reduces the motor speed to a low idle speed and reduces pressure in the separator tank, the low idle speed being slower than the idle speed.
MANUAL INFLATION AND DEFLATION ADJUSTMENT STRUCTURE FOR A PUMP
The present disclosure relates to air assemblies having an inflation, a deflation, and a closed state for use with inflatable products, such as air mattresses. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to air assemblies where the configuration of the air assembly can be changed manually by a user by operating a directional control valve to inflate, deflate, or close the inflatable product. The directional control valve may also activate a pump in the inflation and deflation states and deactivate the pump in the closed state.
FAN FOR USE IN AGRICULTURE
A fan for use in agriculture which has a BLDC motor which allows for varying the speed of the fan to vary the airflow rate of the fan and vary the efficiency of the fan. A ventilation system for use in a livestock confinement building to maximize a rate of growth of the livestock. A process for maximizing the growth of livestock in a livestock confinement building by controlling the airflow in the livestock confinement building.
COMPRESSORS HAVING MULTI-SPEED GEARBOXES
Compressors having multi-speed gearboxes are disclosed. The apparatus comprises: a fluid channel to convey a fluid, a compressor fluidly coupled to the fluid channel, a gearbox operatively coupled to the compressor, the gearbox to control the compressor using a first gear ratio and a second gear ratio different from the first gear ratio to vary a flow rate of fluid in the fluid channel, and clutches to vary the gearbox between the first gear ratio and the second gear ratio.
Fan speed control algorithm for engine cooling
A control system that uses an algorithm to control the fan speed in a cooling system for an engine is disclosed. The algorithm is adapted to maintain a cooling medium at a set temperature instead of an operating temperature range of the cooling medium. The algorithm is also adapted to maintain a cooling medium at a set temperature and to build a cooling safety margin in response to an engine output torque percentage that is below an output torque percentage setpoint.
Fan driving device
The present disclosure discloses a fan driving device, and the fan driving device comprises a sensing unit and a processing unit, wherein the sensing unit at least comprises a microwave sensing module; the sensing unit is at least used for sensing whether any human activity exists within the action range based on microwave sensing according to a certain microwave sensing cycle, and outputting a sensing signal to the processing unit periodically; and the processing unit is used for processing the sensing signal, so that the driving device can adaptively control the turn-on and turn-off of the fan and adaptively regulate the working power of the fan. Based on this, a dynamic intelligent fan driving device without a user's turn-on and turn-off action and based on environmental state sensing is realized.
Method for handling the shutdown of a turbomachine string in a liquefaction plant of a gaseous product
A method for handling the shutdown of a turbomachine string installed in a plant for the liquefaction of a gaseous product comprising at least two turbomachine strings comprises the steps of detecting the shutdown of a first turbomachine string; promptly increasing the driving torque on a shaft of a second turbomachine string when the shutdown is detected; maintaining the driving torque increase on the shaft of the second turbomachine string until a preset speed of the motor driver is reached or a predetermined period of time expires.
DIRECTING AIR STREAMS AT A TARGET
A method of a fan system directing an air stream at a target can include receiving, with a controller, a first image from an image capture sensor and analyzing the first image from the image capture sensor to determine a first location of the target. The method can also include receiving a second image from the image capture sensor and analyzing the second image from the image capture sensor to determine a second location of the target. The method can also include comparing the first location of the target and the second location of the target and sending a signal to a first motor to rotate a housing about a first axis respective to a base to direct an air stream exiting an outlet of a channel at the target.
