Compounding device system, software and method for controlling the process of compounding admixtures
Patent number: 11911736Abstract: An exemplary compounding method of controlling a compounding device to prepare an admixture of at least two distinct material sources can include examining material source solutions for incompatibility of the ingredients and operating a first and a second pump to prevent one of the incompatible source solutions from entering a common flow path. The processing method can detect degradation of a fluid line by evaluating one or more of calibration error rate data, cumulative volumetric flow data, or cumulative pump operation data. The processing method can also selectively transfer a first group of source solutions using the first pump, receiving pump data from one or more sensors that sense actions of the pumps, applying fluid correction factors and calculating discrete pump movements, the pump movements being indicative of an amount of source solution displacement by a pump, and operating the pumps to selectively dispense the source solution amounts according to a preparation order.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2019Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: B.

Publication number: 20230405662Abstract: Tube flaring tool comprising a tube receiving region comprising first and second gripping dies retractable with respect to each other and positionable to cooperatively define an opening for receiving a tube; a first clutch shaft; a support housing having a bore for receiving a second clutch shaft; a clutch plate; a flare forming head operable to flare the free end of the tube; and a biasing member urging the flare forming head axially. The first clutch shaft may have an outer configuration adapted to be engaged by a 12 point or ?? square drive SAE ratchet wrench for creating mechanical advantage to actuate the flare forming head. When the force that the biasing member urges the flare forming head axially is overcome, the clutch plate disengages from the second clutch shaft such that further actuation of the first clutch shaft does not rotate the flare forming head shaft, preventing over-flaring.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Inventors: David S. Pearl, II, Robert L. Latham

Publication number: 20200041060Abstract: Device and method for injecting one or more additives into systems, such as a sealing agent to repair leaks in such systems, including air conditioning and refrigeration systems. In certain embodiments, the device is a disposable or single-use device, and includes a hose, tube, or conduit or the like that contains a sealing agent. Introduction of the sealing agent into the closed system allows the sealing agent to travel through the system and seal leaks therein. In some embodiments, one end of the hose is configured to connect to a manifold, and the other end of the device is configured to connect to the unit to be sealed. A check valve prevents unwanted backflow of refrigerant from the unit to be sealed.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 18, 2018Publication date: February 6, 2020Inventors: David S. Pearl, II, Douglas B.

Patent number: 10281067Abstract: A fitting, such as an anti-blowback fitting, that includes a friction reducing device that enables easy removal of the fitting from a high pressure connection such as one associated with an HVAC unit. When used in connection with refrigeration, anti-blow back fittings function to keep the refrigerant in the hose to which it is connected in order to minimize or prevent the refrigerant from escaping to the environment. In certain embodiments, a friction reducing device is positioned in the fitting, and decreases the load on the rear housing, which enables easy rotation of the outer or swivel housing of the fitting to remove the same from the high pressure connection. In certain embodiments, the friction reducing device is a thrust bearing.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2018Date of Patent: May 7, 2019Assignee: Uniweld Products, Inc.Inventors: David S.
