LIQUID LITHIUM SUPPLY AND REGULATION
Methods and systems for the production and delivery of lithium metal of high purity are provided herein. In one or more embodiments, method for flowing liquid lithium to a processing chamber is provided and includes flowing liquid lithium from a lithium refill container to a liquid lithium delivery module, where the liquid lithium delivery module is fluidly coupled to the lithium refill container, and flowing the liquid lithium from the liquid lithium delivery module to the processing chamber. The liquid lithium delivery module contains a lithium storage region operable to store liquid lithium and containing a fluid supply line fluidly coupling an outlet port of a liquid lithium storage tank, and a flow meter positioned downstream from the lithium storage region along the fluid supply line and operable to monitor the flow of the liquid lithium through the fluid supply line.
Suspension system tank filling systems and methods
A system for filling a tank of a suspension system with hydraulic fluid includes: a module configured to turn on an external pump and pump hydraulic fluid into the suspension system, where the external pump is separate from the suspension system and is configured to pump hydraulic fluid into the suspension system via a port fluidly connected to a hydraulic line of the suspension system; and a fill module configured to, after operating the external pump, operate a pump of the suspension system and pump hydraulic fluid from the hydraulic line into the tank of the suspension system thereby filling the tank.

VARIABLE FLOW FLUID EXCHANGE MACHINE
A vehicle fluid exchange machine is disclosed that allows the technician to control the flow into the vehicle or stand-alone cooling or hydraulic system either manually or automatically based on a safe working pressure for the vehicle. If the vehicle's cooling system can handle a higher pressure for example, the technician may adjust the machine's flow to a flow rate consistent with the higher pressure rating while monitoring the pressure across the system. The default setting for the air injection process is automatic, but can also be switched to manual by the technician.

PUMP DISPENSER, FILLING APPARATUS AND REPLENISHMENT SYSTEM HAVING A PLURALITY OF PUMP DISPENSERS
A pump dispenser for providing and withdrawing liquids including a bottle (1), having a bottle opening (3) for storing and providing the liquid, and a pump lid (2) on and/or in the bottle opening for metered withdrawal of the liquid. The pump lid has a metering pump (4) with a manually operated actuation element, and further includes a lid (6) for closing the bottle and an output device (7). The bottle has a replenishment opening (9) provided in addition to the bottle opening. A replenishment system includes a pump dispenser (33) per usage location (30) and a transportable storage tank (19) for liquids for replenishing the pump dispensers. A filling apparatus (13) withdraws the liquid from the storage tank (19) and introduces the liquid into the pump dispensers (33), the filling apparatus (13) being provided with a filling nozzle (14) or spike for the replenishment openings (9) of the bottles.
Foam-in-bag systems and components thereof
A system includes a dip tube, a feed line, and a check valve. The dip tube is inserted through an opening in a source of chemical precursor and into the chemical precursor in the source. A portion of the feed line is located in the dip tube. The feed line passes out of the dip tube. The chemical precursor is capable of flowing out of the source through the feed line in a downstream direction. The check valve is located in the portion of the feed line in the dip tube. The check valve permits the chemical precursor to pass substantially only in the downstream direction. The feed line is coupled to a transfer pump that draws the chemical precursor out of the source through the portion of the feed line in the dip tube.

Electronic vaporiser system
A case for an electronic cigarette vaporiser, the case including an automatic lifting mechanism that lifts the vaporiser up a few mm from the case to enable a user to easily grasp the vaporiser and withdraw it from the case. The lifting mechanism can be spring-based. The case both re-fills the vaporiser with liquid and also re-charges a battery in the vaporiser.
