Automatic E-Liquid Transportation System and Method of Electronic Cigarette as Well as Peristaltic Pump
The present disclosure relates to an automatic e-liquid transportation system and method of electronic cigarette as well as a peristaltic pump. The system comprises a peristaltic pump and a control system, wherein the control system comprises a temperature detector, a servo motor controller and a master controller; the temperature detector is used for detecting a real-time atomization temperature of a heating part of an atomizer and transmitting the real-time atomization temperature data to the master controller; the master controller determines an e-liquid feeding quantity or an e-liquid withdrawing quantity according to the real-time atomization temperature; when the real-time atomization temperature is determined to be greater than a preset temperature threshold, the servo motor controller controls a motor of the peristaltic pump to rotate in the forward direction in order to feed an e-liquid according to the e-liquid feeding quantity.

A fluid driving device includes: a pipe flow system configured to provide a fluid flow channel; a power system configured to provide power for the fluid to flow into and out of the pipe flow system; and a control system, configured to control the operation of the fluid driving device.
COMPRESSED-AIR DRYING DEVICE
Kindly replace the originally filed Abstract with the substitute Abstract shown below: A drying device for drying intake air fed to a compressed-air system of a vehicle includes a cooling device connected downstream of a compressor in an intake air flow path and draws off heat from the intake air coming from the compressor, a desiccant container connected downstream of the cooling device in the intake air flow path and comprising an adsorbent for removing water from the intake air flowing through the desiccant container, and a regeneration container connected downstream of the desiccant container in the intake air flow path and configured to receive a first portion of the intake air coming from the desiccant container and, as required, returns it to the desiccant container and which feeds heat, drawn off by the cooling device, to the received intake air.
Sensor for Peristaltic Pump and Associated Methods
A sensor used to control a peristaltic pump includes a housing, a tubing channel extending through the housing, a pressure sensor adjacent the tubing channel to measure an internal pressure of a tubing set inserted into the tubing channel, and a temperature sensor adjacent the tubing channel to measure a temperature of a wall of the tubing set. The sensor can also include a bubble sensor adjacent the tubing channel to detect bubbles within a fluid flowing through the tubing set. The sensor can be used to control a peristaltic pump. For instance, the peristaltic pump can include a microprocessor that can determine the internal pressure of the tubing set from an output of the pressure sensor and compute therefrom a pump factor required to maintain a given flow rate of the fluid flowing through the tubing set. It can then adjust a pump factor of the pump head to the computed pump factor.
Gas Compressor
To prevent generation of drain reliably without depending on a difference in ambient temperature where a compressor is installed. Provided is a gas compressor: having a compressor main body compressing a gas, a drive source driving the compressor main body, a controller controlling the rotation speed of the drive source according to the discharge pressure of the compressor main body, and a temperature detector detecting the temperature of a discharge gas of the compressor main body; and performing no-load operation with the rotation speed of the drive source as a lower limit rotation speed when the discharge pressure reaches an upper limit pressure higher than a set pressure. When detecting that the temperature detected by the temperature detector is equal to or lower than a predetermined temperature during the no-load operation, the controller causes the lower limit rotation speed of the drive source to a lower limit rotation speed at which the temperature of the discharge gas is higher than the predetermined temperature and which is higher than a lower limit rotation speed when the detected temperature is higher than the predetermined temperature.
