Patent EP-0607066-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GORSSE PATRICK G
IPC: F24D19/00
Filed: 1994-01-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a humidifier which is fixed to the electric convector by a magnetised metal connection and which utilises the heat produced by the convector to bring about the evaporation of the water. The humidifier consists mainly of a high-strength plastic tank which is open at the top part via a slot over the entire length of the tank and permits the passage of a band of baize which is permanently wet as a result of immersion in the water of the tank. The passage of the air which is heated by the convector through the wet baize brings about the evaporation of the water into the atmosphere. Filling of the tank is carried out via a plugged orifice which is situated at the rear of the humidifier and prevents, for safety reasons, filling on the convector. The humidifier has a handle on each side for easy handling and a float which indicates the water level. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An electrostatic printer or copier having a single toner applicator (16) with a system for continuous toner purification. In a color embodiment, the single applicator (16) is used for each color sequentially. As toning of one color is completed a volume of spent or contaminated toner fluid is left behind in the applicator (16). This volume is removed with clean wash fluid and sent to a wash fluid tank (30). Dirty wash fluid is continuously purified either before or after return to a wash fluid supply tank. In the latter case, the wash fluid supply becomes contaminated but is purified as wash fluid is withdrawn or while still in the tank (30). Continuous purification of dirty wash fluid allows a small volume purifier (77) to be used without need for spent toner disposal.

Abstract: The device has two pistons (4) arranged parallel to each other and axially movable. The pistons are moved by a drive and carry out an oscillating movement, out of phase with each other. The drive is a stepper motor with an externally adjustable control. The control determines the stroke rate of the pistons (4) in dependence on the direction and/or time and/or measurement values of sensors. In the testing process, the switch is directed such that the pressure point lies at an extension of the piston axes. The distance of the switch from the testing device is selected such that the stroke of the pistons (4) is sufficient to move the switch and then release it again. The turning point of each piston (4) is set such that it moves the switch but does not go beyond the strike point of the switch. The inner turning point is set such that the switch is released so far that movement of the switch into the other position is not prevented.

Abstract: Method for determining the flow rate and the amount of an essentially incompressible fluid pumped in a line by a pump having a pump motor, which comprises the steps of measuring the total power taken up by the pump motor, measuring the pressure differential which occurs across the pump, introducing the measured values of said power and said pressure differential into a model derived from transport physics, and then calculating, by means of this model, the flow rate as a function of time. The model includes total power taken up by the pump motor, dissipated power of the pump, mass flow rate, pump pressure differential, density and a correction factor. The dissipated power and the correction factors can be assumed to be constant, and the density is determined separately, so that it is also possible for the volumetric flow rate to be determined. Based on the mass or volume flow rate, the amount by mass or volume is determined by integration over time. 
     The device for implementing the method comprises a pump incorporated in the line and having a pump motor, a measuring element for measuring the total power taken up by the pump motor, a pressure differential sensor for measuring the pressure differential across the pump, and a processing unit wherein, based on the model derived from transport physics and the power and the pressure differential measured, the flow rate is calculated as a function of time. A densimeter may be incorporated in the line.
