Automated Splitting Of A Fluid Into Uneven Volumes
20220244093 · 2022-08-04 ·

A system for splitting a fluid includes a source support configured to support a source container and a satellite support configured to support a satellite container fluidly connected to the source container. A weight scale is associated with each of the supports. The system also includes a clamp system and a controller. The controller determines a plurality of possible distributions of the fluid between the source container and the satellite container based at least in part on the concentration or amount of said constituent and the combined weight measured by each weight scale, then controls the clamp system to selectively allow and prevent fluid flow from the source container to the satellite container so as to distribute the fluid between the source container and the satellite container according to one of the distributions, with at least one of the possible distributions being an uneven distribution of the fluid.

The luggage scale strap attaches to a luggage item as a shoulder strap. The luggage scale strap weighs the luggage item, detects changes in the weight of the luggage item, and alerts an appropriate authority when a weight change has been detected by the luggage scale strap in the luggage item. The presumption of the disclosure at bar is that a weight change in the luggage item indicates to the appropriated authority that something has been inappropriately added to or removed from the luggage item. The luggage scale strap comprises a shoulder strap, a control circuit, a personal data device, and the luggage item. The shoulder strap contains the control circuit. The shoulder strap attaches to the luggage item. The control circuit monitors the weight of the luggage item. The control circuit notifies the appropriate authority about weight changes in the luggage item through the personal data device.

Fluid Container Measurement System

A fluid container measurement system is configured to suspend a load measurement assembly a distance above a support surface. The load measurement assembly houses a load cell and a measurement control circuit. The measurement control circuit is coupled to the load cell and configured to receive electrical signals indicative of a force imposed on the load cell. Electrical signals generated by the load cell indicative of the force exerted on the load cell can be used to measure the fluid container attached to the load cell linkage member. Methods of measuring a fluid container include attaching a fluid container to a fluid container attachment region and displaying the load measurement on a display adjustably attached to an upper surface of the housing of the load measurement assembly.
