  • Publication number: 20160299096
    Abstract: A sensor is configured to sense a parameter of an aqueous liquid. The sensor has an analog output port configured to provide an analog signal indicative of a sensed parameter, and a calibration memory device storing individual digital information indicative of a calibration of the sensor. A digital output port provides a digital signal indicative of the digital information. A treatment system and method is matched to the sensor.

  • Publication number: 20160153668
    Abstract: A convection oven having a vapor collection system; water injection system; easily accessible electrical components; and a variable-speed, reversible blower is disclosed. The vapor collection system collects vapor from the cooking chamber during a cooking event, condenses the vapor, and drains the condensed vapor. The water injection system injects water for impact against a blower wheel for dispersion into the air circulating through the cooking chamber. The electrical components are housed within a housing that in a closed position conceals the components and in a closed position exposes the components for easy access. The rotational speed and direction of the variable-speed, reversible blower is controlled during a cooking event according to predetermined speed curves which may include one or more reversal events to achieve more uniform cooking of food. A main controller is programmable via an operator input (e.g., liquid crystal display touch screen) to control operating parameters of the oven.

  • Publication number: 20070295220
    Abstract: The clamshell coffee or other beverage packet brewer, wherein a clamshell, with a hinged or discrete upper and lower halves, incorporate a cavity therein, into which a packet or scoop of grounds can locate. The clamshell, when closed, provides a hydraulic seal, with hot water being delivered leak proof to the clamshell apparatus, when inserted into the dispenser, for receiving a portion controlled size or quantity of the heated water passing through the grounds, and dispensing, by gravity, out of the dispenser and downwardly into an individual serving cup. The clamshell contains integrally its own spray head, for dissemination of the heated water onto the packet of grounds, and a contoured bottom, for flow of the instant brewed beverage towards a delivery aperture for descending downwardly into the individual positioned cup.
