Title: Automatic detergent dispensing system for a warewasher
Inventor: UHEN DAVID A
IPC: A47L15/44
Filed: 2002-12-12
Granted: 2007-10-30
Abstract: An apparatus dispenses detergent into a warewasher from a reservoir (50) wherein a flow control device (54) controls the flow of the detergent. A  sensor (42) measures the electrical conductivity of water within the warewasher (10) and produces a conductivity measurement. A controller (32) operates the flow control device (54) in a first mode in which the quantity of detergent dispensed into the warewasher (10) is determined in response to the electrical conductivity of the water. If the conductivity measurement is determined to be unreliable, the controller operates in a second mode in which a predefined quantity of detergent is dispensed into the warewasher (10). The reliability of the conductivity measurement is determined based on the amount that the conductivity changes upon detergent being added to the warewasher.

Lorsque la condition selon laquelle la variation de température détectée par le premier détecteur de température pendant un laps de temps déterminé se situe à une valeur spécifiée est satisfaite, le dispositif de commande de chauffe décide que la température de la casserole remplie est stabilisée et commande la puissance de sortie de l'onduleur sur la base des résultats de décision. Lorsque la température détectée par le premier détecteur de température ne satisfait pas à cette condition, le dispositif de commande de chauffe décide que la température de la casserole remplie est stabilisée sur la base de la température détectée par le second détecteur de température. Dans ce dispositif de cuisson par induction, la température de la casserole remplie peut être détectée de manière précise, même si une lumière parasite est présente, du fait de la détection des rayons infrarouges renvoyés par la casserole remplie.

Abstract: A surgical instrument particularly suited to endoscopic use articulates an end effector by including a fluid transfer articulation mechanism that is proximally controlled. A fluid control, which is attached to a proximal portion, transfers fluid through the elongate shaft through a first fluid passage to a first fluid actuator that responds by articulating an articulation joint. Two opposing fluid actuators may respond to differential fluid transfer to effect-articulation. Thereby, design flexibility is achieved by avoiding the design constraints of transferring a mechanical motion through the tight confines of the elongate shaft sufficient to effect articulation.
