Abstract: A standing water alert system comprises two conductive wires or a float extending into a drain and connected to an audible or visual alarm that is triggered when standing water is present. A drain alert system and method comprises a plurality of sensors, such as pressure or acoustic/vibration sensors, at various locations within a plumbing or fluid filtration system to measure pressure or an acoustic profile at that location and a control system to compare the measured parameters to a threshold value or range and/or to other measured parameters from nearby sensor locations. A signal is sent to a remote user or computer or an alarm is triggered when the comparison shows a potential blockage, a leak, or indicating that a filter needs to be replaced or cleaned.

Title: Additive manufacturing apparatus and additive manufacturing method
Inventor: KATOGI HIDETAKA
IPC: B29C64/20
Filed: 2018-03-02
Abstract: An additive manufacturing apparatus (1) includes: an irradiation unit that irradiates a feeding position with a laser beam that melts a build material; a numerical control device (3) that is a control unit that performs control for building a deposit by stacking beads on a substrate (2); and an arithmetic device (4) that is an arithmetic unit that executes an arithmetic process of computing parameters for the control unit to perform the control unit. The beads, which are two beads stacked on each other, are a first bead and a second bead stacked on the first bead. The first bead is formed earlier than the second bead. The feeding position is a first position in formation of the first bead. The feeding position is a second position in formation of the second bead. On a basis of a width of the first bead and a diameter of the laser beam, the arithmetic unit calculates an interval between the first position and the second position in a set direction that is a direction of the width of the first bead. The control unit performs control for setting the second position to a position shifted from the first position in the set direction by the interval, so as to allow a part of the second bead to protrude from the first bead in the set direction.
