Pump monitoring system
A fuel pump monitoring module for monitoring attributes related to a fuel pump at a gas station. The fuel pump monitoring module may have a body for attachment to the fuel pump. A transmitter or receiver is connected to the body and configured to communicate with a bioremediation dispensing unit using a transmission signal. A processor is connected to the body and configured to determine the location of the bioremediation dispensing unit relative to the fuel pump monitoring module based on the transmission signal.
Method and device for ascertaining an available fluid volume, braking system
A method for ascertaining an available fluid volume in a tank for brake fluid of a braking system. The braking system includes a pressure generator fluidically connected to the tank on the one hand and to at least one brake circuit on the other hand, which is activatable for generating a hydraulic pressure in the braking system as brake fluid is withdrawn from the tank. A drop below a predefined limiting value for a fill level of the brake fluid in the tank is monitored with the aid of a binary sensor assigned to the tank. It is provided that an actuation of the pressure generator is monitored and that the available fluid volume is ascertained as a function of the actuation of the pressure generator when the instantaneous fill level drops below the limiting value.
Robot
A guide robot includes a lower module includes a wheel and a motor provided inside the lower module, and an upper module disposed at an upper portion of the lower module and including a trash can assembly and a display unit. The upper module includes a body part coupled to the upper portion of the lower module and a head part rotatably coupled to an upper portion of the body part. The body part includes a front case forming a front outer appearance of the body part and including the trash can assembly provided inside the front case, and a rear case forming a rear outer appearance of the body part and including the display unit. A garbage insertion part is provided at a portion of the front case corresponding to an upper portion of the trash can assembly to insert garbage into the trash can assembly.
E-CIGARETTE PERSONAL VAPORIZER
A user-replaceable e-liquid reservoir for dispensing e-liquid, the reservoir being inserted into, or otherwise attached to, a portable, personal e-cigarette device and engaging with an electrical or electronic pump fluid transfer system in the device, the device including: an electrical or electronic pump, being configured to transfer e-liquid from the e-liquid reservoir to an atomizing unit in the device, the pump delivering a pre-defined or variable quantity of e-liquid from the reservoir; and in which the reservoir is not user-refillable.

LIQUID LEVEL SENSING APPARATUS AND RELATED METHODS
Liquid level sensing apparatus are disclosed. An example liquid level sensing apparatus includes a cannula defining a body having a tip and an access channel. The tip to pierce a container, where the cannula is to be at least partially positioned in the container when the tip pierces the container. A probe is to be positioned in the access channel. A signal source is to electrically energize the probe and the cannula to cause the probe to emit a first signal and cause the cannula to emit a second signal.
