FUEL DISPENSER SENSOR ASSEMBLY

A fuel dispenser comprising fuel flow piping defining a flow path from a source of fuel toward a fueling nozzle. The fuel flow piping further has a filter manifold for mounting a fuel filter thereon. A plurality of fuel handling components are disposed along the fuel flow piping. A sensor device is mounted to the filter manifold, the sensor device having at least one sensor operative to detect a sensed condition related to the fuel dispenser. The sensor device further comprises electronics to transmit a signal related to the sensed condition.

Systems, devices and methods delivering energy using an uncrewed autonomous vehicle

Devices such as vehicles, remote sensors, and so forth consume energy during operation. Described herein are systems, devices, and methods for transferring energy from an uncrewed autonomous vehicle to a vehicle such as a car. The uncrewed autonomous vehicle may locate the vehicle at a rendezvous location, and connect with the vehicle while the vehicle moves. Once the uncrewed autonomous vehicle connects to the vehicle, the uncrewed autonomous vehicle may transfer the energy to the vehicle.

Automatic Truck Tank Fill System
20170267512 · 2017-09-21 ·

An automatic truck tank fill system includes a conduit in fluid communication with a fluid supply source. An electrically controlled valve is in fluid communication with the conduit. A fill spout is in fluid communication with the conduit, the fill spout including an outer chamber. A controller is in electrical communication with the valve. A first signal opens the valve from a closed position permitting fluid flow through the conduit, and a second signal causes the valve to close, preventing fluid to flow through the conduit. A tubing is in fluid communication with the fill spout. A pressure transducer is in fluid communication with the tubing, and the controller is in electrical communication with the pressure transducer. When a pressure in the tube reaches or exceeds an activation pressure (P1), the controller sends a signal to close the valve in the conduit.
