SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A PUMP IN A HUMIDIFIER
A pump arrangement for powering a pump in providing a controlled volume of water to a drip nozzle in a drip-feed humidifier. The pump arrangement includes: a pump having a solenoid; a processing unit; and a power supply electrically connected to the solenoid via a switch which is controlled by the processing unit. The power supply is structured to supply power to the solenoid via the switch. The processing unit is programmed to modulate the power provided to the solenoid via the switch such that the power is supplied to the solenoid according to a mirror image power profile for each actuation of the solenoid for retracting the armature. The mirror image power profile includes: an initial portion which decreases at a third overall rate, an intermediate portion which decreases at a second overall rate different than the third overall rate, and a final portion which increases at a first overall rate.
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.
High-lift shielded permanent magnet multistage pump and control method
A high-lift shielded permanent magnet multistage water pump includes a pump shell, a motor assembly and an impeller. The motor assembly includes a motor barrel, a stator, a rotor and a rotor shaft. The pump shell is sleeved on an outside of motor barrel. An upper and a lower connection base for fixing the motor barrel is provided in the pump shell. A waterway cavity is formed between the pump shell and motor barrel. An upper and a lower impeller cavities are respectively formed at an upper and a lower ends of the pump shell. The lower impeller cavity, water passing cavity and upper impeller cavity are in sequential fluid communication. Both ends of the rotor shaft with an axel provided on pass through the upper and the lower connection bases respectively. The impeller is a multistage structure and mounted on the axle at both ends respectively.
Hydrophilic toothed impeller type oil transportation device
The present disclosure is directed to providing impeller type oil transportation device including; a transport unit provided such that a mixed fluid including an oil is fed on one side; and an impeller provided in the transport unit, the impeller including a core connected to a rotation axis, and wings extending radially from the core and having hydrophilic teeth on an outer surface to transport the mixed fluid including the oil to the other side of the transport unit by rotation, wherein the impeller is provided in the transport unit such that parts of the wings are exposed above a surface of the mixed fluid, to separate the oil adhered to the teeth while the mixed fluid is fed into a space between the adjacent teeth by capillary flow when the wings exposed above the surface of the mixed fluid move on to the mixed fluid by the rotation.
MULTIPORT PUMP AND ADAPTER KIT
A multiport pump and adapter kit for use with a water circulation system for a body of water includes a centrifugal pump assembly having a plurality of outlet ports oriented in different directions and at least one adapter having a first open end configured and dimensioned to be removably connectable to one of said outlet ports, a second open end configured and dimensioned to be removably connectable to a water circulation system, and a hollow body connecting the first open end and the second open end.
Corrosion-resistant air preheater capable of slowing down dust deposit
Disclosed is a corrosion-resistant air preheater capable of slowing down dust deposit. The air preheater comprises a shell, an air inlet is fixedly formed in the side wall of the shell, an air outlet is fixedly formed in the side, away from the air inlet, of the shell, a flue gas through pipe is fixedly arranged on the inner side wall of the shell, rotating assemblies are arranged on the outer side wall of the flue gas through pipe, a flue gas inlet box is fixedly arranged at the top of the shell. According to the corrosion-resistant air preheater, an air pressure plate is pushed through the flue gas pressure intensity, and then the air pressure plate can descend. After the air pressure plate descends, rotating blades can rotate under the flowing effect of flue gas, then a movable rod rotates, and a scraping plate is further enabled to rotate.
Gas Compressor Cleaning
A method and corresponding gas processing system for cleaning deposited solid material from a fouled portion of a gas compressor whilst the gas compressor is in situ in a natural gas processing system are provided. Cleaning of a gas compressor is achieved by accumulating liquid removed from cooling gas used for cooling the gas compressor and supplying the accumulated liquid to an inlet of the gas compressor in order to remove deposited solid material from the gas compressor. The cooling gas is extracted from an intermediate stage of the gas compressor.
Blower housing having integral exhaust blower discharge drain section
A blower housing comprises first and second blower housing pieces for surrounding a blower fan. The first blower housing piece comprises a blower discharge section comprising an inner tubular portion, an outer tubular portion, and a drain hole. The inner tubular portion defines a blower discharge passage. The inner and outer tubular portions define an exhaust pipe cavity adapted to receive an end margin of an exhaust pipe. The tubular portions are adapted to enable condensate water that forms on the inner surface of the exhaust pipe to flow into the exhaust pipe cavity. The drain hole extends through the outer tubular portion. The drain hole is configured to enable condensate water flowing into the exhaust pipe cavity to drain from the blower housing. The first blower housing piece is a molded one-piece member.
SYSTEM COMPONENT CARRIER WITH EJECTOR
A component carrier includes a baseboard, two sidewalls, and an ejector. The two sidewalls extend from opposite sides of the baseboard. The ejector includes a side plate, a handle, and a tab. The side plate is positioned in proximity to a first sidewall of the two sidewalls of the component carrier. The handle extends from a first end of the side plate in a first direction that is generally perpendicular to the side plate. The tab is positioned in proximity to the baseboard, and extends from a second opposing end of the side plate in a second direction that is generally perpendicular to the side plate and opposite to the first direction, the tab coupled to a first connector extending from the baseboard. The baseboard includes a first opening such that a portion of the tab of the ejector is configured to directly contact the electronic component therethrough.
FLUID HEAT EXCHANGER WITH PUMP
A fluid heat exchanger with pump, adapted to drive a fluid for heat transfer, comprises a heat conduction unit, a diversion unit, and a housing unit. The heat conduction unit includes a heat conductor. The diversion unit includes a cover and a diversion plate. A cooling chamber is defined by the cover and the heat conductor. The cover is provided with a fluid stopper. The diversion plate is disposed in the cooling chamber, and one end of the diversion plate abuts against the fluid stopper, so that the cooling chamber is divided into an upper passage and a lower passage. The housing unit includes a housing and a pump module. The fluid in the housing is driven by the pump module to flow through the upper passage to the lower passage, and then the fluid returns to the housing to carry the heat from the heat conductor.
