Abstract:
The present specification discloses a work light having a tray for holding or positioning light components such as a light source, power source and electrical control unit. The components can easily be assembled on the tray for operation of the light. The tray can be compartmentalized by including barriers into which the modular components of the light fit. Such barriers provide for very simple assembly or replacement of the components and protect the components by limiting their movement with respect to each other. In an embodiment the tray contains a compartment for holding an electronic control unit. The tray can contain a battery compartment which can hold a battery powered power source. The tray can also contain a light source compartment for holding a light source. The tray can be supported by a housing or casing containing a light transmissible portion which surrounds at least a portion of the tray. A cap having a hollow shell body with an opening at one end can be used to close the end of the housing. In an embodiment the cap can have a rotatable hook, which extends away from the work light, that can be used to suspend the work light in a work environment.
Abstract:
The present application reveals a lamp and a method for detecting leaks in air-conditioning and refrigeration systems. The lamp uses one or more light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as a light source to detect fluorescent dyes that have been added to the air-conditioning or refrigeration system.
Abstract:
An apparatus (22) and method for detecting leaks in a pressurized air conditioning or refrigeration system (24) comprising a cartridge (26) is described. A facility (28) is for fluidly coupling the cartridge (26) to the pressurized system (24). An assemblage (30) is for forcing a secondary fluid (32) out of the cartridge (26), through the fluidly coupling facility (28) and into a service valve (34) of the pressurized system (24). The cartridge (26) has a first open end with an inner nozzle (33) which connects to the system being charged and an outer nozzle (37).

An assemblage (30) is for forcing lubricant (32) out of the lubricant canister (26), through the fluidly coupling facility (28) and into a service valve (34) of the pressurized system (24).
Abstract:
The present application reveals a simplified method and a device for diagnosing performance of an air-conditioning system. The simplified method comprises determining a temperature differential or differentials between inlet and outlet temperatures of a condenser and/or between ambient and vent temperatures in the air-conditioning system; analyzing the differential or differentials to determine whether the air-conditioning system is properly functioning; and diagnosing performance of the air-conditioning system.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for injecting a concentrated fluorescent dye into a sealed air-conditioning system prior to the system going into service are revealed. The apparatus is made of a heated reservoir connected to a heated hose which is connected to a heated injector. The method involves heating a fluorescent dye to form a molten liquid fluorescent dye, maintaining the liquid fluorescent dye at a constant temperature and viscosity and injecting the liquid fluorescent dye into a component of a sealed air-conditioning system prior to the system going into service.

Abstract:
The invention provides compositions and methods for more thoroughly cleaning internal combustion engines, fuel systems and emission systems and that operate with reduced toxic emissions. The invention provides an apparatus that contains at least one vessel for receiving a cleaning fluid and an electrode in a cleaning fluid flow path configured to apply a charge to a cleaning fluid. The cleaning fluids are unique fuel derived products which do not contain detergents. The apparatus is unique in that it can provide any of several cleaning processes including a pre-combustion cleaning process, a post-combustion cleaning process or a combined pre-combustion and post-combustion cleaning process. The method is particularly effective at cleaning oxygen sensors in exhaust systems.
