Diesel exhaust fluid tank with integrated mis-filling prevention device
11072470 · 2021-07-27 · ·

A diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) storage system may include a reservoir body having a magnet integrally formed about an inlet opening of the reservoir body. For example, the magnet may be molding about a perimeter of the inlet opening during a molding process in which the reservoir body is formed. In some examples, the inlet opening defines a lumen extending into an interior of the reservoir body with the magnet being positioned at a location along the lumen opposite an external end face. The position of the magnet may be effective to engage a corresponding magnet on a DEF fill nozzle, allowing DEF to be introduced into the reservoir body. By integrating the magnet into the reservoir body, protection features that prevent erroneous filling of the reservoir body cannot be removed or bypassed.

Compact apparatus for fermentation and pressing of wine
11084708 · 2021-08-10 ·

An apparatus for the production of red wine is provided. This compact device is suitable for home and hobby use. The fermenting wine is contained inside a single-use plastic bag, eliminating cleaning. A reusable rubber bladder is inflated periodically to squeeze the cap and disperse it. At the conclusion of the fermentation, a perforated device is inserted into the fermentation bag and pneumatic bladders are sequentially inflated to press out the wine while retaining the waste skins and seeds.

SPACE-BASED GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM

A transfer system for supplying a receiving tank of a receiving spacecraft with a supply gas from a supply spacecraft. A transfer tank is disposed on the supply spacecraft and configured to retain a supply gas. A transfer line is coupled to the transfer tank, and one end thereof maybe coupled to the receiving tank. A transfer valve is operatively coupled to the transfer line. A heating system is thermally coupled to the transfer tank. A control system is operatively coupled to the transfer valve and the heating system. The control system is operable to cause a transfer quantity of the supply gas to be heated, and to open the transfer valve, such that a difference between the increased pressure of the supply gas in the transfer tank and a pressure in the receiving tank causes the transfer quantity of the supply gas to flow to the receiving tank.

Hands-free tank fill device

A hands-free device for use in filling tanks for storing liquids, particularly water tanks on recreational or commercial vehicles having either threaded or flange style collars. The device's spring clamp can be operatively moved between the open and closed positions to secure the clamp to the collar of the storage tank during use. The filler hose is then snapped into position within the body of the device which prevents inadvertent displacement.
