Abstract: A liquid dosing system is disclosed and can include an inlet conduit and an outlet conduit. The inlet and outlet conduits can each be configured to fluidly communicate a heat exchanger of a water heater. The liquid dosing system can include one or more connector conduits configured to fluidly connect the inlet conduit and the outlet conduit to define a fluid circuit by at least the inlet conduit, the heat exchanger, the outlet conduit, and the one or more connector conduits. The liquid dosing system can include a pump configured to pump water through the fluid circuit, a reservoir configured to store an additive, and a dosing device configured to dispense the additive into the fluid circuit.

Abstract: A liquid dosing system is disclosed and can include a cartridge comprising a reservoir configured to store an additive, an output vessel in fluid communication with the reservoir, and a cartridge outlet in fluid communication with the output vessel. The liquid dosing system can include a housing that includes a water passage configured to direct water though the liquid dosing system and a receiving portion configured to at least partially receive the cartridge when the cartridge is connected to the housing. The receiving portion can include a receiving port in fluid communication with the water passage, and the receiving port can be configured to receive at least some of the additive from the cartridge outlet when the cartridge is connected to the housing. The receiving portion can include a motor configured to engage in mechanical communication with the output vessel when the cartridge is connected to the housing.

Abstract: The disclosed technology can include a system for monitoring and detecting a fault in a fluid storage tank. A sensor can be located in, on, or proximate the fluid storage tank and can be configured to detect waveforms produced by the fluid storage tank in response to strain. The sensor can convert such waveforms into electrical signals and transmit such electrical signals in the form of vibration data to a controller. The controller can compare the vibration data to stored data, and based on such comparison, determine if a fault is present in the fluid storage tank.

Abstract: A hair sculpting device that creates a wave-like pattern of hair by utilizing a plurality of long and short bristles in a repeating pattern, while penetrating the user's scalp to release oils that cultivate hair follicles in a wave like pattern.

Abstract: A peristaltic pump system is disclosed and can include a rigid backing and a rotor assembly comprising a central hub. The central hub can rotate along a central axis extending in an axial direction. The central hub can include one or more ball bearings or one or more rollers that are configured to rotate about a respective roller axis that intersects a central axis of the central hub. Located between the rigid backing and the rotor assembly can be tubing or a flow channel that is defined by the rigid backing and an elastomeric sheet. As the central hub rotates, the one or more rollers or ball bearings are configured to push against the tubing or the flow channel in the axial direction and can move along the tubing or the flow channel to move fluid through the tubing or the flow channel.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a self-healing job executor pool. A server detects that a job executing on an executor failed. The server determines, based on at least one factor from a predetermined set of executor-related factors, that the job executing on the executor failed due to a state of the executor. The server adjusts, in response to determining that the job executing on the executor failed due to the state of the executor, the state of the executor to a known good state, where the known good state is selected from a stored set of known good states.
