Fluid discharge system and squeezer thereof

This invention discloses a fluid discharge system and the squeezer thereof. The squeezer includes a pair of rolling shafts, a driving device, and a mounting bracket, wherein the pair of rolling shafts is rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket. Each rolling shaft has a mounting part at each of both ends and a squeezing segment located between the mounting parts. A pair of rolling shafts can operatively clamp an object to be clamped between the squeezing segments and can rotate oppositely through a driving device to apply a squeezing force to the object clamped. The squeezing segment includes a supporting shaft and an elastic body provided around the supporting shaft. The squeezer also has a protective device for protecting the elastic body at the end of the squeezing segment. The discharge system provided by this invention is a zero-residue discharge system needing not to hanging the liner bag, and has a simple structure, a good manufacturing process, simple operation, and cost savings.

Biased retainer assembly for waste container
11453188 · 2022-09-27 · ·

A retainer assembly for a waste container opening defining a longitudinal axis passing through a center of the opening includes a framework defining a first framework opening, and a pivotable finger assembly including a retainer portion, the retainer portion pivotably adjacent the first framework opening. The finger assembly includes a biasing element for urging the retainer portion toward the longitudinal axis. The retainer portion is movable against the biasing element away from the longitudinal axis to enable placement of waste materials into the waste container, and movable toward the longitudinal axis after waste materials have been placed into the waste container to impede movement of waste materials through the first framework opening out of the waste container.

Proppant discharge system having a container and the process for providing proppant to a well site
09718610 · 2017-08-01 · ·

A proppant discharge system includes a container having an outlet formed at a bottom thereof, a gate affixed at the outlet and positioned on the floor of the container so as to be movable between a first position covering the outlet to a second position opening the outlet, a support structure having the container positioned on the top surface thereof. The support structure has at least one actuator affixed thereto. The actuator is positioned so as to move the gate between the first position and the second position. The container has a cage affixed on the floor thereof in a position over the outlet. The gate is positioned within the cage and is movable by the actuator so as to open the gate so as to allow proppant to be discharged therefrom.

Dispensing apparatus and methods utilizing quick connect member to secure fluid body and actuator body

A fluid dispensing apparatus includes an actuator body with an actuator and a valve stem coupled for movement with the actuator, and a fluid body having a fluid chamber capable of fluid communication with an outlet. The valve stem is adapted to extend from the actuator body into the fluid chamber for dispensing fluid from the fluid chamber through the outlet. A quick connect member is provided to selectively fully engage and disengage a first coupling element on the actuator body with a second coupling element on the fluid body, to connect and disconnect the actuator body and the fluid body with respect to each other. The quick connect member advantageously connects or disconnects these bodies without requiring disassembly or dismounting of the bodies from other elements associated with the fluid dispensing apparatus, with a simple manual movement such as a sliding linear continuous movement.

VALVE FOR A GRAVITY-FEED SILO TANK FUELING SYSTEM

A fleet refueling silo tank system gravity feeds fuel through hoses to fleet units without requiring pressurizing pumps. A specialized valve at the fleet unit fuel tank prevents vapor escape and admits fuel at low, gravity-feed pressures. The valve includes a valve body with an upper end and a lower end, the upper end adapted to engage a cap which affixes the valve body to the fuel tank fill mouth. Below the cap, a fuel cut-off plunger and seat selectively interrupt fuel flow through the mouth by responding to a buoyant float extending coaxially beneath the valve body and into the fuel tank. Linkage coupled to the plunger extends through the valve body to the float, and roller bearings within the valve body engage a shaft extending from the float coaxially into the lower end of the valve body.
