Title: Drive system for a frozen food product dispenser
Inventor: VOGEL JAMES D
IPC: A23P30/00
Filed: 1998-12-14
Granted: 2009-10-20
Abstract: The present invention includes a dual purpose carbonator/blending bottle connected to a source of beverage syrup, a source of potable water and to a source of pressurized carbon dioxide gas. The dual purpose bottle is retained within an ice bank water bath tank. A pair of ratio valves provide for metering the water and syrup at a desired ratio. The mixed beverage first flows through a serpentine coil, also located in water bath, and then flow into the dual purpose bottle. A refrigeration system provides for cooling an evaporator located in the water tank for forming the ice bank thereon. The carbonated beverage then flows from the bottle into a freeze cylinder. The freeze cylinder also includes a further evaporator coiled around an exterior perimeter thereof. The freeze cylinder evaporator is connected to and cooled by the same refrigeration system that cools the evaporator in the water bath tank. A scraping mechanism within the cylinder provides for scraping frozen beverage from the inner surface of the cylinder. A control mechanism provides for controlling the refrigeration system and the cooling of both evaporators. The beverage is therefore pre-cooled to a temperature just above its freezing point before delivery to the freeze cylinder. Thus, less cooling power is needed to reduce the beverage to a frozen state. The present invention utilizes a method of controlling the operation of the refrigeration system and the cooling of both evaporators thereof. The control system provides for directing refrigerant to one or the other of the evaporators as is most efficient so as to avoid short cycling or pressure build up. The present invention uses a control strategy that can mote accurately maintain a pre-selected temperature differential between the inlet and outlet temperatures of the evaporators. The control algorithm utilizes a proportional integral differential control approach that safely permits a much narrower temperature difference so that a greater length of each freeze cylinder evaporator can be utilized for efficient heat transfer cooling.

Granted: 2009-07-14
Abstract: The object of this invention is to provide a high temperature gas reforming cyclo-incinerator, using reformed water and strongly swirling inlet air in its interior to burn up wastes. The incinerator has a dust collecting structure designed to almost completely remove circulating dust and other harmful impurities from air strongly swirling in the incinerator and discharge clean air to the atmosphere. Internal and external lower tubs (110, 130) have substantially larger diameters than those of internal and external upper tubs (160, 150), thus effectively burning up a large quantity of wastes at one time. The incinerator is also provided with a flow rate control fan unit separate from a main fan unit, thus controlling the amount of inlet air as desired and allowing a user to control the incineration rate of wastes in the incinerator.

Title: Vehicle navigation system
Inventor: FUKUI KUNIHIKO
IPC: G08G1/0969
Filed: 2004-06-08
Granted: 2009-01-06
Abstract: To provide a navigation system capable of properly displaying direction guide information, which represents a target direction and the like, regardless of forward motion or backward motion. In step S1, the current position of a vehicle is calculated. In step S2, the traveling direction of the vehicle is sensed. In step S3, an operation mode is determined. If the operation mode is a "compass mode," the process goes to step S4, and the orientation of the traveling direction is calculated based on the current. position and the traveling direction. If the operation mode is a "NAVI mode," the process goes to step S5, and a target position T separately set is read. In step S6, a target direction is calculated based on the current position and the target position T. In step S7, whether the motion of the vehicle is forward or backward is determined. If the motion of the vehicle is backward, the process goes to step S8, and direction guide information is corrected by an angle equivalent to 180°.
