An electric power take-off system for mounting to a truck body to complement an existing power-take-off system powered by an internal combustion engine. The system includes a motor, a battery for providing electrical power to the motor, a fluid reservoir, a pump for pumping fluid through at least one hose from the fluid reservoir to at least one truck function and for return of the fluid to the reservoir. The system also includes a system interlock rendering inoperable the electric power-take-off system when the internal combustion engine is in operation and a motor controller in communication with the motor for controlling the power output of the motor. The system also includes a charging unit for charging of the battery and a data management system operable to collect data.

A fluid delivery apparatus includes controller hardware, a diaphragm pump, a positive displacement pump, and a fluid conduit extending between the diaphragm pump and the positive displacement pump. During operation, and delivering fluid to a downstream recipient, the controller hardware draws fluid into a chamber of the diaphragm pump from a fluid source container. The controller hardware applies pressure to the chamber of the diaphragm pump to output the fluid in the chamber of the diaphragm pump downstream through the fluid conduit to the positive displacement pump. During application of the pressure to the chamber and outputting the fluid in the chamber of the diaphragm pump downstream, the controller hardware activates the positive displacement pump to pump the fluid from the positive displacement pump to the downstream recipient.

A fluid dispenser with a fluid pump for dispensing fluid on movement of an actuator, and an air pump for delivering a stream of air through at least one sound generator on movement of the actuator. The sound generator produces at least two sounds as the actuator is moved from a first position to a second position, with each sound produced in a different time period during a cycle of operation, or differing from the other sound in respect of one or more detectable sound characteristics, such as duration, frequency, temporal alignment, amplitude, and/or timbre. The time period of each sound is a function of the relative location of the actuator between the first and second positions.

A pump system includes a housing, a lubricant system, and control circuitry. The housing includes a pump chamber defined by the housing and a throat seal. The lubricant system includes a lubricant pump, a lubricant gallery defined within the housing of the main pump, and a lubricant circuit fluidly connecting the lubricant pump and the lubricant gallery. The throat seal is disposed adjacent to and between the pump chamber and the lubricant gallery. The control circuitry is configured to cause the lubricant pump to pump a purge volume of lubricant through the lubricant system, cause the lubricant pump to stop pumping for a first time period after the lubricant pump has pumped the purge volume, and cause the lubricant pump to pump the purge volume of lubricant through the lubricant system after the first time period.

A liquid proportioning machine includes at least two liquid storage mechanisms for storing liquid, pump bodies for pumping liquid from the liquid storage mechanisms, and liquid discharge locations connected with liquid outlets of the pump bodies and ejecting liquid; and the liquid storage mechanisms are respectively connected with the corresponding pump bodies, and a regulating mechanism for keeping a proportion for the liquid discharge speeds of the pump bodies is arranged between the pump bodies. The pump body includes a rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft rotates to cause the pump body to pump and discharge the liquid; and the regulating mechanism includes a driving shaft driven by a driving mechanism to rotate, and the driving shaft drives the rotating shafts of the liquid storage mechanisms to rotate through a transmission mechanism and maintains a proportion for the rotating speeds between the rotating shafts. The driving shaft drives any rotating shaft to rotate through a first transmission mechanism, and a second transmission mechanism is arranged between other rotating shafts and the rotating shaft directly driven by the driving shaft. In the present invention, an automatic proportioning manner is adopted, so the proportion of various kinds of liquid does not need to be manually regulated, which improves the working efficiency and the proportioning accuracy, and then the quality of the product is improved. The entire device has a low cost and great market competitiveness.

A hydraulic pressure supply unit has a storage chamber which stores hydraulic fluid, a hydraulic pump which is arranged within the storage chamber and dips at least partially into the stored hydraulic fluid, and an electric motor which drives the hydraulic pump. The electric motor is arranged below the hydraulic pump in a separate motor chamber which is situated below the storage chamber, is dry, and is not connected fluidically to the storage chamber. The electric motor is coupled in a thermally transmitting manner to a separating floor, the upper side of which delimits the storage chamber and is wetted continuously with stored hydraulic fluid.
