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.

A fluidic interconnect includes a first interface including a liquid port, a gas port, and a cradle; a second interface including a liquid port, a gas port, and a swing bar to engage the cradle, a weight of a container attached to one of the first or second interfaces to drive the liquid port of the first interface into connection with the liquid port of the second interface and the gas port of the first interface into connection with the gas port of the second interface.

The present invention relates to automated batch making assemblies where various component materials, at least, some in liquid form, are combined. Specifically, the invention provides a dispensing assembly that adds efficiency by increasing dramatically the speed with which a liquid is dispensed from a container and by providing means and methods to automate the addition of and account for the amount of each component.

A quantitative essential oil dripping device which includes: N sealed essential oil containers for containing essential oil, wherein N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1; N gas inlet tubes and N oil outlet tubes, which are all inserted into the N essential oil containers respectively, wherein in each of the essential oil containers, a gas outlet of the gas inlet tube is located above an inlet of the oil outlet tube; a gas pump arranged at gas inlets of the N gas inlet tubes; a throttle valve communicating the gas pump with the essential oil container; and a drip number detection module configured to detect the drip number of the essential oil dripped from an oil outlet of the oil outlet tube. During use, the gas pump is started, pressure is applied to the essential oil container through the gas pump, and the essential oil is driven to be dripped from the oil outlet tube under the combined action of the gas pump and the throttle valve, thereby achieving the dripping of the essential oil. The drip number of the essential oil dripped from the oil outlet of the oil outlet tube is detected through the drip number detection module, and the amount of the dripped essential oil is measured by recording the drip number, thereby accurately controlling the dripping of the essential oil. After the dripping of the essential oil is completed, the gas pump is stopped.

A method of delivering a fluid to a fluid consuming asset having a fluid tank is disclosed. A first tank is filled with the fluid and is fluidically coupled to a second tank which may be pressurized by a compressor. The second tank is fluidically coupled to a manifold which is in turn coupled to a fluid transporting mechanism. The fluid transporting mechanism is fluidically coupled to a hydraulic connector of a fill cap which is coupled to an opening of the fluid tank. The fluid is directed from the first tank to the second tank, the manifold, the fluid transporting mechanism, the hydraulic connector and into the fluid tank through an outlet of a probe of the fill cap.

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.

An improved fill cap for delivering a fluid from a fluid transporting mechanism to a fluid tank is disclosed. A connection plate is coupled to an opening of the fluid tank and a probe is disposed within the fluid tank and coupled to the connection plate at a first distal end. The fluid flows into the fluid tank through an outlet at a second distal end of the probe. A valve is disposed at the second distal end of the probe and is movable between an open position and a closed position to control fluid flow out of the probe outlet. An arm is coupled to the valve and moves the valve between the open and closed positions and a float is coupled to the arm that moves the arm depending on the level of fluid in the fluid tank.

In a method and system for delivering fluid to a fluid consuming asset having a fluid tank, a first tank and a second tank are fluidically coupled and the second tank is pressurized. An inlet of a manifold is fluidically coupled to the second tank and an outlet of the manifold is coupled to a spigot. A first distal end of a fluid transporting mechanism is coupled to the spigot and a second distal end thereof is coupled to a hydraulic connector of a fill cap having a connection plate coupled to the fluid tank of the fluid consuming asset. The fill cap further comprises a probe and fluid flows from the first tank to the second tank, through the manifold and the hydraulic connector, through the probe and into the fluid tank of the fluid consuming asset.

The present invention provides a dispensing system comprising a self-gassing liquid to be dispensed and a dispenser for dispensing the self-gassing liquid, the dispenser including: a valve housing having an inlet for receiving the liquid and an outlet through which the liquid is to be dispensed; a valve chamber and/or passage extending between the inlet and the outlet, and a valve arranged to open and close the valve chamber and/or passage; pressure maintaining means arranged to maintain the pressure of liquid at the inlet to the valve housing at a constant pressure during successive dispensing operations; and control means for controlling the opening and closing of the valve, the control means being arranged to open and close the valve to commence and terminate each successive dispensing operation, wherein the period for which the valve is open determines the quantity of liquid dispensed. The dispensing system may permit very small quantities of liquid to be dispensed with great accuracy and avoid the liquid being subjected to high shear forces. The system is particularly beneficial for the dispensing of peracetic acid.
