  • Patent number: 11633750
    Abstract: Disclosed is a device for pressurizing a viscous fluid contained in a drum, the device includes a follower plate vertically movable along a perpendicular axis passing through the center of the drum, the follower plate: is movable between a first position outside the drum and a second position inside the drum, to exert pressure on the viscous fluid; has a transfer port intended to be connected to a means of pumping capable of transferring the pressurized fluid. The device further includes an energy storage unit and restoration connected to the support system, the storage unit being capable of storing energy under the effect of the pressure exerted by the support system and of restoring it to the follower plate in order to maintain the viscous fluid under pressure.

  • Patent number: 10712065
    Abstract: Equipment for transferring fluid into a reservoir or a downstream pipe includes: a piston valve having a body and a rod with a closing member; a chassis defining a housing receiving the piston valve and an upstream passage for fluid, the piston valve movable between a non-inserted and inserted positions, with the piston outside and inside the housing, respectively; and a module defining a cavity for receiving the fluid from the upstream passage and a downstream discharge passage intended to be fluidly connected to the reservoir or downstream pipe, the inlet of the discharge passage defining a valve seat intended to receive the closing member of the piston valve in the deployed position, the module being movable relative to the chassis between an open position, allowing the piston valve to be inserted in the housing, and a closed position, in which the module is fastened to the chassis.

  • Patent number: 10647567
    Abstract: A testing or filling adapter (1) for a container to be filled with fluid, composed of a body (10), an attachment module (3), and a coupling system (30) having a coupled position, in which a sealed connection is established between the body and the attachment module, and an uncoupled position. The body includes a feed module (2) that comprises a plurality of conduits that include at least one fluid conduit (221) and is equipped with a safety valve (5) that can be moved between an open configuration and a closed configuration and is connected to an element mirror (51) having a first configuration in which the safety valve is in the open configuration and a second configuration in which the safety valve is in the closed configuration.

  • Patent number: 10526193
    Abstract: Equipment for fluid transfer includes a valve, a frame that defines a housing for the valve and an upstream passage for the fluid that leads into the housing and is fluidically connectable to a fluid source, the valve being able to move between a non-inserted position and an inserted position in which the valve is situated at least partially in the housing, a module that defines a downstream passage for the fluid that fluidically connectable to the reservoir, the module being able to move between an open position, allowing the insertion of the valve, and a closed position in which the module is fixed to the frame, and two seals that are respectively compressed substantially between the valve and the frame and between the valve and the module when the valve is in the inserted position and the module is in the closed position.

  • Patent number: 10464804
    Abstract: The invention relates to an adapter and to a filling method giving the possibility of flexibility in the transfer of fluids from a filling cell to a fluidic circuit, depending on the different filling levels required on a production line, notably finding application for the transfer of fluids such as coolant fluid, brake fluid, air-conditioning fluid, to the corresponding fluidic circuit of a vehicle, for example on an automotive assembly line, or further in the energy sector for filling electric radiators with a fluid. The adapter comprises a conduit 4 connected to the filling cell 16 for sucking up filling fluid 5 contained in, and filling with the filling fluid 5, the fluidic circuit 2, and a plunger tube 6, secured to a piston 7 axially adjustable on an axis Y in a first guiding tube 9, having first and second ends 14, and connected through the first end to the conduit.
