Portable fluid transfer system

Номер: US20120000536A1
Принадлежит: Individual

This (Portable Fluid Transfer System) is designed to displace a volume of water that will satisfy a small residence under normal or abnormal conditions. This unit has a unique feature described as an ECU which will balance (float) the battery charge when necessary, allowing the battery to be charged from various sources and operating the pump while charging is in effect. This component also sustains the battery life by not allowing the battery to overcharge. Although float circuitry is not new, it is unique within portable electric pump systems. This amendment contains no new matter.

Система подачи криогенной жидкости

Номер: RU0000182784U1

Полезная модель относится к области криогенной техники, в частности к системам транспортировки криогенной жидкости от завода-изготовителя или хранилищ до судов-газовозов, силовых установок, вагонов, автомобилей или трубопроводов, снабженных холодильными установками. Криогенная жидкость может быть использована для фармацевтической и химической промышленности, в качестве топлива на электростанциях, для газоснабжения населения и промышленных объектов. Подача криогенной жидкости, например сжиженного природного газа (СПГ) потребителю из бака 5 осуществляется за счет открытия вентиля 9, подачи по расходной магистрали 8 из источника 4 природного газа высокого давления на вход в турбину 3 и далее на выход 2 насоса 1. С началом вращения турбины 3 в насос 1, скрепленный с турбиной 3, из бака 5 по расходной магистрали 6 через вентиль 7 поступает СПГ. По мере прохождения через тракт насоса 1 давление СПГ повышается. На выходе 2 из насоса 1 СПГ смешивается с природным газом из турбины 3. Затем эта смесь без примесей и посторонних компонентов поступает потребителю. Технический результат, обеспечиваемый полезной моделью, заключается в исключения попадания в смесь СПГ и природного газа примесей и посторонних компонентов.

Hydraulic fan drive

Номер: US20130202452A1
Принадлежит: ROBERT BOSCH GMBH

A hydraulic fan drive includes a hydraulic pump that has an adjustable swept volume. The hydraulic pump is assigned a pressure control valve arrangement that is configured to regulate a pump pressure by adjustment of the swept volume. The drive further includes a hydraulic motor configured to drive an impeller wheel and a pressure line, which is connected to a pressure input of the hydraulic motor and into which pressure medium is configured to be conveyed by the hydraulic pump. A hydraulic accumulator is connected to the pressure line and the displacement of the hydraulic motor is configured to be adjusted. Energy is buffer-stored by the hydraulic accumulator by feeding in pressure medium beyond the amount that is displaced by the hydraulic motor. This stored energy becomes free for other operations of a machine, for example, to which the drive is attached.
