This device for collecting and supplying brake fluid has a gas-liquid separation tank divided into a lower chamber and an upper chamber with a partition wall interposed therebetween. Connected to the gas-liquid separation tank are: a collection line for collecting brake fluid from the brake system of a vehicle in the gas-liquid separation tank; a circulation line for extraction of brake fluid from the lower chamber and the return thereof to the lower chamber; and a replenishment line for replenishing the gas-liquid separation tank with fresh brake fluid. Air intake for the brake system is performed via a main intake line, and air intake for the gas-liquid separation tank is performed via an auxiliary intake line. Both the main intake line and auxiliary intake line are connected to an auxiliary tank.

A fluid exchanger may exchange a fluid (e.g., coolant) in a reservoir (e.g., vehicle radiator) by removing or withdrawing a first fluid (e.g., old, spent, used, etc.) and by introducing a second fluid (e.g., new, clean, etc.). For example, the fluid exchanger may use a negative pressure, suction, or vacuum to draw the first fluid from the reservoir, and subsequently, the second fluid may be transferred into the reservoir using a negative pressure held in the reservoir, a positive pressure applied to the second fluid, or a combination thereof. The fluid exchanger may also include a multi-purpose, hand-held nozzle that can change an operation of the fluid exchanger from a withdrawing mode to a dispensing mode.

A dispensing fitment assembly includes a fitment assembly and a dispensing probe. The fitment assembly includes a fitment housing and a plug. The fitment housing is configured to operatively couple to a container opening of a fluid container. The plug is positioned within an interior portion of the fitment housing. The plug is slidingly movable between an open and closed position. Engagement between the dispensing probe and the interior surface of the plug is configured to move the plug from the closed position to the open position. Disengagement between the dispensing probe and the interior surface of the plug is configured to move the plug from the open to closed position.

Embodiments of the invention provide a probe assembly configured to selectively restrict fluid flow through an outlet of a closed transfer system. The probe assembly has an elongate probe body with a top end portion, a bottom end portion, an outer wall, and an internal structure defining a fluid chamber extending from the bottom end portion to the top end portion. The fluid chamber has a fluid chamber inlet at the bottom end portion extending through the outer wall into the fluid chamber and a fluid chamber outlet at the top end portion extending from the fluid chamber through the outer wall. A probe tip with a cylindrical bore is configured to engage the top end portion of the elongate probe body and a probe tip outlet is configured to be in fluid communication with the fluid chamber outlet. A rotating head located circumjacent to the probe tip and adjacent to the probe tip outlet is configured to rotate about the probe tip. The rotating head having an inner surface, an outer surface, and a vane extending from the inner surface through the outer surface.

In one embodiment, a dual modulator display systems and methods for rendering target image data upon the dual modulator display system are disclosed where the display system receives target image data, possible HDR image data and first calculates display control signals and then calculates backlight control signals from the display control signals. This order of calculating display signals and then backlight control signals later as a function of the display systems may tend to reduce clipping artifacts. In other embodiments, it is possible to split the input target HDR image data into a base layer and a detail layer, wherein the base layer is the low spatial resolution image data that may be utilized as for backlight illumination data. The detail layer is higher spatial resolution image data that may be utilized for display control data.

The device for pumping products from a pumping area (2) to an enclosure (3) comprises two tanks, a transfer system (8) which generates a suction of the products from the pumping area (2) to the tanks (4A, 4B) and a transfer of the non-gaseous products from the tanks (4A, 4B) to the enclosure (3), valves (3A, 3B, 3D, 3D, 3I, 4C, 4D, 4I, 4J) to, alternately, allow or block the communication from one tank (4A, 4B) to the pumping area (2) and a communication from the other tank (4A, 4B) to the enclosure (3), and a control system (25). The transfer system (8) comprises a suction unit (13) provided with hydro-ejectors (13A, 13B) connected to each tank (4A, 4B) and generating the suction of the products and a transfer unit (20) provided with a pump connected to the tanks (4A, 4B) to transfer non-gaseous products to the enclosure (3).

Disclosed is a portable container with a refill structure, which includes: first and second containers that are open towards each other and form a contents receptacle space by being inserted in a watertight and variable way and communicating with each other; a one-way valve attached to the first container to allow the contents to be introduced; and a pump unit attached to the second container to release the contents held in the receptacle space through a nozzle. A negative pressure is generated in the receptacle space by pulling out the first and second containers in a watertight way.

A fluid transfer device is implemented which has an inlet for receiving a fluid from a subject container or reservoir and an easily controllable outlet to direct the received fluid to a desired location, such as a target container or reservoir. The inlet and outlet may both include conical spouts to which various sized hoses can removably attach to enable directional and maneuverable control for a user. The fluid transfer device includes a base which rests on a surface and provides support for the components above it, including a handle and an operational arm that handles the fluid transfer operations. The fluid transfer device is configured with versatility for adaptability to multiple use cases. For example, the fluid transfer device has a height-adjustable handle to accommodate differently sized containers, a hinged operational arm, and a horizontally-adjustable container rest.

A coupler for use in a closed transfer system is provided. The coupler includes a body with an axial slot, an outlet, and a probe that extends from a first end portion to a second end portion and at least partially received within the body, the probe configured to be movable relative to the body between a first position and a second position to selectively control the flow of fluid through the outlet. A handle is coupled to the probe and configured to interface with the axial slot, wherein the handle is configured to move axially along the axial slot to move the probe between the first position and the second position.
