Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to improve insulating properties. This terminal unit (30) comprises: a plate-shaped base unit (40); a plate-shaped insulation unit (51) and a fitting insulation unit (52) that cover the plate surface of the base unit; a terminal (70) that extends in the Z axis direction, which is the direction intersecting the plate surface of the base unit (40), and penetrates the base unit (40) and the plate-shaped insulation unit (51); and an upper cylinder insulation unit (53) that extends along the Z axis direction from the plate-shaped insulation unit (51) and covers the side surface of the terminal (70). The plate-shaped insulation unit (51) and the upper cylinder insulation unit (53) are formed integrally.
Abstract:
A sealed nut assembly includes a nut portion and a plug portion integrally formed together as a single unit. The nut assembly is configured to seal a bore hole in a fluid end and prevent leakage of working fluid therein. The assembly includes a nut portion and a plug portion. The nut portion and plug portion are inserted and removed together. The nut portion engages the fluid end prior to the setting of the plug portion. A seal groove is included in the plug portion to locate one or more seals. The contact surface between the nut assembly and the fluid end is tapered.
Abstract:
The present application discloses a compressor including a crank shaft, a first reciprocation converter, a first cylinder body, a first pressurizing portion, a second reciprocation converter, which is connected to the crank shaft with a phase different by 180 degrees from the first reciprocation converter, a second cylinder body, a second pressurizing portion, and a connecting portion configured to interconnect the compression chambers. The compression chambers are arranged so that a timing at which the gas is discharged from a specific compression chamber among the compression chambers becomes the same as a timing at which the discharged gas is suctioned into another compression chamber at a higher side by one stage than the specific compression chamber.
Abstract:
A metering pump incorporates a method of relating inner loop current to a pump output pressure. Pump/motor speed, which correlates to current, is measured and controlled by a system controller. System temperature is also measured by the system controller. The controller monitors the measured system temperature and provides for compensation for system losses, including inductive-resistive (IR) losses, and for density and viscosity shifts, within a pre-determined allowable system temperature operating range. An initial system calibration is conducted using a “shut-off” test, where the metering pump is run at a very slow known speed while the system is shut-off. After initial start-up, a health-monitoring feature continues to monitor the current as an indicator of pump performance and continuously adjusts a motor speed to maintain a desired level of pump performance. This provides the system with the ability to compensate for performance losses, including performance losses due to variations in operating conditions, and to compensate for pump wear.

Abstract:
A pump including one or more pumping chambers, one or more drive mechanisms for driving the one or more pumping chambers and a logic arrangement. The first pumping chamber of the one or more pumping chambers has a first inlet check valve, a first outlet check valve and a first temperature sensor. The logic arrangement is configured to identify a leak by applying logic to at least resistance-data indicative of a resistance of the first pumping chamber to the driving and temperature-data at least based on output from the first temperature sensor.

A centrifugal compressor for HVAC application includes a rotary component rotatable about an axis, a static component, and a brush seal fixed to one of the static component and the rotary component. The brush seal includes bristles that contact the other of the static component and the rotary component.
Abstract:
In one general aspect, the present application relates to a leak detection device that includes a body, a liquid separator, and a liquid level detector. The body includes an airflow inlet, an airflow outlet, and a liquid reservoir. The airflow outlet is arranged to substantially align with the airflow inlet. The liquid reservoir is formed in a bottom portion of the body. The liquid separator is positioned directly between the airflow inlet and the airflow outlet. The liquid separator divides an airflow path from the airflow inlet to the airflow outlet into at least two separate flow paths around the liquid separator. The liquid level detector is at least partially contained within a channel defined within a lower portion of the liquid separator, where the channel is in liquid communication with the liquid reservoir.
Abstract:
A peristaltic pump is provided comprising a drive unit, a pumphead comprising a pressing element. The pumphead is connectable to the drive unit such that, when connected, the pressing element is driveable by the drive unit to exert a peristaltic action on a tube arranged within the pumphead. The pumhead further comprises an optical sensor, wherein the optical sensor comprises an emitter and a receiver which are mounted on the drive unit and a reflector element mounted on the pumphead. The reflector element is arranged on the pumphead such that when the pumphead is connected to the drive unit, radiation emitted by the emitter is reflected by the reflector element towards the receiver.
