A fixture for piping includes a fitting. The fitting includes a base, and a locking tab. The locking tab has an end fixed onto the base, and one or more folding sections. The locking tab is formed as a folding configuration folded twice or more, and is further formed so as to be inclinable by elastic deformation about the end and the one or more folding sections serving as a fulcrum, respectively, thereby being locked up with a hole in a vehicle body.

Processes of and apparatus for supplying to an operation a liquid that is applied at the operation comprise delivering to the operation from a holding vessel a liquid of a prescribed composition comprising more than one constituent, whereby a spent liquid having a composition different from the prescribed composition can be formed at the operation. The spent liquid is returned to the holding vessel for redelivery to the operation. The composition of the liquid at the holding vessel can be continuously analyzed and the amount of each constituent of the liquid required to be added to the liquid at the holding vessel to provide a liquid of the prescribed composition determined and that amount of each constituent delivered to the holding vessel. A plurality of operations and respective holding vessels can be involved. The operations can comprise metalworking operations and the liquid of a prescribed composition can comprise a coolant.

A fluid circulation monitoring system includes a distributed processing system having a first processor located on-premises near a space filled with a circulating fluid and a second processor located off-premises. The first processor and the second processor are in communication with one another. A sensor is operatively connected to the first processor and senses at least one parameter associated with a flow rate of fluid through the circulation system. The distributed processing system is configured to process the at least one parameter and derive a volumetric fluid flow rate through a fluid pump which propels the fluid through the circulation system. Pattern recognition is applied to the at least one parameter to detect maintenance events and predict the need for maintenance events.

A safety device of a recirculating-water utilization system to be constructed in a specific area includes: at least one of a circulating-water monitoring unit configured to monitor a water quality of circulating water purified by a purifying unit, or a treatment-vessel monitoring unit configured to detect abnormality of treatment vessels constituting the purifying unit.

The invention concerns a circuit comprising a bag (11) comprising two flexible films (45, 46) and a press (10) comprising a first (14) and a second (13) shell clamping the bag to form pipes having a passage and edges (41); the first shell comprising a valve (20) which comprises a movable member (24) and a pad (31), which pad has a resting configuration in which a second face (33) of the pad is concave and locally delimits a channel (18) and a pinching configuration in which the second face (33) is convex; said movable member and said pad being configured so that, when said valve is in closed position and said pad in pinching configuration, said passage is pinched by said movable member against said second shell channel and said edges (41) are pinched flat by said movable member against said second shell (13).

A hydraulic manifold for a hydraulic heating and/or cooling system includes a feed conduit (212) and a return conduit (216). The feed conduit (212) includes at least one feed connection (258), and the return conduit (216) includes at least one return connection (260), for the connection of a load circuit (228). A load module (204), in which a section of the feed conduit (212) with the feed connection (258), and a section of the return conduit (216) with the return section (260) are formed, includes at least one mixing device with a pump (232) and with a regulating valve (230), to admix fluid from the return connection (260) to a fluid flow from the feed conduit (212) to the feed connection (258). The section of the feed conduit (212) and the return conduit (216) in each case include an additional contact for connection with a further load module.

A submersible, water circulation system for enclosed tanks such as used by municipalities, fire districts, and industries. The system includes a driving unit having a shell extending along an axis with a pump supported within the shell. The shell has at least one inlet and at least one outlet and is positionable on the floor of the tank with the outlet facing upwardly. The upwardly facing outlet is preferably a thin, upwardly facing, elongated slot and creates a thin, substantially planar discharge of water therethrough that is directed upwardly toward the surface of the body of water. The substantially planar discharge presents a very large surface area for its volume and induces water adjacent the outside of the shell of the driving unit to move upwardly with it toward the surface of the body of water.

A recirculating bath includes a reservoir for receiving a working liquid, a recirculating pump, and at least one thermal element. The recirculating pump and thermal element are located externally to the reservoir so that the reservoir has an unobstructed working space. The thermal element may be thermally coupled to the working liquid through an interior surface of the reservoir, or the working liquid may be circulated over the thermal element by the recirculating pump in a chamber external to the reservoir. The recirculating bath may also include a lid that provides access to the reservoir by pivoting on a latching hinge. When open, the lid may provide a working surface adjacent to the reservoir. The lid may also include a selector that unlatches the hinge so that the lid can be removed. The recirculating pump may be fluidically coupled to the reservoir via a manifold.
