Overfill Protection Device
20170130863 · 2017-05-11 ·

An overfill protection device includes first and second bodies, a piston slidably mounted within the first body, a spring arranged within the first body and fitted over an intermediate portion of the piston, first and second O-rings respectively fitted in first and second neck portions of the piston, a spindle arranged within the second body and located under the piston, a rod having a cam plate abutted against the spindle, and a float fixedly connected with a lower end of the float rod, whereby no fluid will be allowed to flow through the overfill protection device when the pressure within the vessel exceeds a predetermined level. The first and second bodies are made of plastic and bonded with each other via high frequency welding to prevent a pressurized fluid leak.

Vertical storage unit for dispensing a fuel additive

This invention is a vertical fluid storage system with an upper container connected to a lower container. A fill port can be used to fill the upper container wherein the top fill hose is in fluid communications with the upper container. A first top valve in line with the top fill hose can be included to or controlling the flow rate of fluid into the upper container from the fill port. A top fluid level sensor can be included in the upper container for sensing the fluid level of the upper container. A gravity port included in the upper container can allow fluid to flow from the upper container to the lower container either during filling or when fluid is removed from the lower container. A dispensing port can be included in the lower container for dispending fluid from the lower container through gravity of a pump.

Filler device for a fluid tank

A filler device for a fluid tank, including: a filler duct; a first stopper, for preventing overfilling of the tank, and a second stopper for preventing fluid from leaving the tank in unwanted manner; a first float mechanically connected to the first stopper such that, on being placed in a predetermined position, the first float closes the first stopper; and a holder system for holding the second stopper, which system, when fluid leaves the tank, closes the second stopper, and when fluid enters into the tank, opens the second stopper. In an operating position of the device, and under effect of a heavy element, the holder system acts continuously on the second stopper, tending to maintain the second stopper permanently in its closed position.

An arrangement for filling watering cans (16), having a container (10) for receiving liquid, wherein the container is assigned a closable outlet and an in particular closable inlet. In this case, an effective cross section of the outlet may be larger than an effective cross section of the inlet.

DEVICE FOR AUTOMATICALLY FILLING FRACKING PUMP FUEL TANKS
20170009905 · 2017-01-12 ·

A system for automatically filling a fuel tank coupled to a fracking pump is described. The filling system includes a device that automatically opens and closes fuel flow to the fuel tank based on a level of fuel in the fuel tank. The device may close fuel flow to the fuel tank when a fill capacity of the fuel tank is reached. The device may open fuel flow to the fuel tank when a fuel level in the fuel tank drops below a selected level (e.g., below 1/4 of the fill capacity of the fuel tank). The device may be used to substantially continuously supply fuel to the fuel tank.

Pressure/vacuum (PV) valve for fuel storage tanks, in-line pressure-vacuum valve test unit, and combination thereof

A flow-through pressure-vacuum valve includes a valve body having a tank-side opening and a vent-side opening. A pressure relief valve (e.g., a ball held in a corresponding seat by gravity) is positioned within a first passageway through the body. The ball is moved from the first valve seat to open the first passageway when pressure at the tank-side opening exceeds pressure at the vent-side opening by a predetermined pressure differential. A vacuum relief valve is positioned within another passageway (e.g., a serpentine passageway). The vacuum relief valve (e.g., also a ball held in a corresponding seat by gravity) is positioned within the serpentine passageway. Analogously, the ball is moved from the valve seat to open the serpentine passageway when pressure at the tank-side opening is less than the pressure at the vent-side opening by a predetermined pressure differential.
