  • Patent number: 10518453
    Abstract: Injection molding apparatuses and methods wherein a valve pin is controllably driven upstream and downstream along an axis between a first closed position where the tip end of the valve pin obstructs the gate to prevent the injection fluid from flowing into the cavity, a full open position and one or more intermediate positions, wherein the valve pin is drivable to be disposed or held in a selected intermediate position for a selected period of time during the course of an injection cycle where the tip end of the valve pin restricts flow of injection fluid through the gate to the mold cavity.

  • Publication number: 20190389204
    Abstract: An inkjet recording apparatus includes a recording head, a waste ink tray, an ink inflow section, an ink detecting section, and a controller. The recording head ejects ink. The waste ink tray recovers the ink. The ink inflow section is located on the waste ink tray. The ink flows into the ink inflow section. The ink detecting section outputs a detection signal indicating whether there is the ink or not. The ink inflow section has a first inflow opening and a second inflow opening. The second inflow opening is located at a position higher than a position of the first inflow opening. The ink detecting section detects whether or not the ink has flown into the second inflow opening. The controller, upon receiving the detection signal, detects that the first inflow opening is clogged.

  • Publication number: 20190390644
    Abstract: A kinetic fluid energy conversion system comprises one or more hubs which rotate about a central hub carrier, each including one or more independently controlled articulating energy conversion plates (“ECP”). An articulation control system rotates each ECP independently of all others to control its orientation with respect to the fluid flow direction between an orientation of 90° perpendicular to the fluid flow, while traveling in the direction of the flow and 0° minimal drag parallel position to the flow, while traveling in the direction against the flow or blocked from it. Each hub can be operably coupled to another hub to form one or more counter-rotating hub and ECP assemblies whereby the mechanical energy is transferred through the hubs, to one or more clutch/gearbox/generator/pump assemblies thereby permitting such assemblies to be land-based when the system is air-powered, and above or near the surface, when the system is water-powered.

  • Publication number: 20190389724
    Abstract: A process can be used to treat a synthesis gas stream comprising steam reforming firstly in a primary reformer and subsequently in a secondary reformer. Crude synthesis gas exiting the secondary reformer may be cooled in a steam generator and then further cooled in a steam superheater. The crude synthesis gas stream after exiting the secondary reformer may be split into at least two gas substreams, of which only a first gas substream is fed to the steam generator. A second gas substream may be supplied to the steam superheater, bypassing the steam generator. Only the first gas substream, after flowing through the steam generator, may be subjected to a CO conversion reaction in a first CO conversion reactor before the first gas substream is supplied to the steam superheater.
