  • Patent number: 8763994
    Abstract: A humidifier has a continuous water flow system with total water recovery and no loss, for maximum efficiency. The unit has a fan with a motor, a transformer, and a circuit hoard, a water tank, and a hood that directs the water vapor into a duct system of a residence. The unit uses multiple ultrasonic transducers positioned at the bottom of a water chamber that transform electrical energy into mechanical energy through vibration. The vibration excites the water molecules separating them into particles having a diameter of about 10 microns for circulation through a home.

  • Publication number: 20140034629
    Abstract: A reusable and thermally efficient pad for heating the contents of intermediate bulk shipping containers is formed combined in a unitized manner, with a means for securing the heating pad cord, portions for handles, tie-off connection points. and a portion for a spout of the shipping bladder container to protrude through for pouring. The heating pad panel is reusable, and the pad is used with a combination of thermally efficient material layers for trapping and deflecting heat energy into the product.

  • Publication number: 20130108500
    Abstract: A radial pump has a housing with a cylinder ring pivotally mounted therein. The cylinder ring has a circular aperture within which a cam surface is formed. A cylinder block rotates within the cylinder ring aperture and has a plurality of radially extending cylinders each having port which selectively communicates with a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet as the cylinder block rotates. A plurality of pistons is slideably received within the cylinders and engages the cam surface. The movement of the pistons within the cylinders is directly related to the magnitude of fluid flow delivered by the pump and moving the cylinder ring thereby controls the fluid flow.

  • Publication number: 20120261492
    Abstract: A multi-component system to feed two fluid materials, water and a cleaning agent, from a fluid tank to a spraygun is described. The fluid tank comprises a separation wall within the tank, to separate the two fluids from each other. A rechargeable battery-powered pump creates the pressure and the fluid components are drawn through their respective tube into a central tube, where the components combine before entering the spraygun.
