A protection system and method for cargos in a compartment and a robotic equipment thereof, applied in the field of robotics, are disclosed. The system includes an inflatable mechanism and an airbag. The airbag is used for filling the space between the cargos and/or between the cargos and an inner wall of the compartment. The airbag includes an inlet. The inflatable mechanism is defined on a robot for inflating or deflating the airbag via the inlet. The protection system and method for cargos in a compartment and a robotic equipment thereof can improve the stability of the stacked cargos during the process of the loading and unloading of the cargos, and the stability of the cargos during transportation.

Bag manufacturing apparatus and method
11643234 · 2023-05-09 · ·

Apparatus and method of manufacturing open-mouth bags, comprising a storage device with a supply of bag film, a control device for controlling, a conveying device for conveying the bag film and/or the bag body along a conveying path, a welding device with welding means for making a bottom seam in the bag film and a cutting device with a cutting means for separating a predetermined film length of the bag film to form the bag body of an open-mouth bag. The control device controls the conveying device so as to cause a relative motion of the bag body and the bag film and a distance between the bag body and the bag film is generated prior to making the bottom seam. The control device controls the conveying device and the welding means so that while welding the bottom seam the welding means extend at least up to the bottom end of the bag body.

System and method for unloading compressed natural gas
09784411 · 2017-10-10 ·

A system and method for unloading highly pressurized compressed natural gas from transport vessels by depressurizing the gas through flow lines linking a series of automated flow control valves that lower the gas pressure to a predetermined level, the valves being linked in series with and separated by heat exchangers in which the lower pressure gas flowing through the system is also reheated to a predetermined temperature by a heat exchange medium recirculation system in which the heat exchange medium is reheated by a heat source that can be internal to the system. The use of a minor portion of the depressurized and reheated gas as fuel gas to reheat the heat exchange medium is also disclosed. The subject system can be skid-mounted if desired.

Method for filling up a storage tank with a gaseous pressurized medium, in particular hydrogen

A method for filling up a storage tank (e.g., a vehicle tank) with a gaseous, pressurized medium, in particular in the form of hydrogen, in which a supply tank system for storing the hydrogen is connected with the storage tank to be filled by way of a tank feed line and a fueling valve, wherein, prior to filling up the storage tank with aforesaid medium with the fueling valve closed, a flow of the medium for cooling the tank feed line is guided through the tank feed line at a predefinable target temperature, and removed from the tank feed line through a line that branches away upstream from the fueling valve. The disclosure further provides for a fueling facility for filling up a storage tank.

Packaging machine and method for introducing bulk materials into containers

A packaging machine and method for filling bulk materials into packages with a rotatable machine frame and a plurality of circumferentially arranged filling spouts. During frame rotation, bulk materials are filled into packages. A machine silo is configured at the machine frame which has a storage volume for storing a quantity of bulk materials for filling a plurality of packages. Bulk materials are filled into the attributed packages from the silo through the filling spout. The machine silo is connected with a material supply with a controllable closing member for feeding bulk materials to the machine silo. A controller controls the closing member of the material supply dependent on the fill level to reduce the height of fall of the bulk materials being fed into the silo, or to avoid a free fall of the bulk materials during the feeding of bulk materials into the machine silo.
