  • In-line pressure boosting system and method
    Patent number: 10385859
    Abstract: A pressure boosting system and a method of using the same to increase fluid pressure in a fluid distribution system are disclosed. The pressure boosting system may be installed “in-line” with the fluid distribution system. The pressure boosting system includes a submersible pump and a controller that may be configured to control the submersible pump based on an outlet pressure if inlet pressure is below a threshold. The pressure boosting system may also control the submersible pump based on a flow of the fluid through a pump unit as a function of the inlet pressure. A mounting bracket may be moveably coupled to a tank of the pressure boosting system.

  • Latching mechanism for fluid containment assembly
    Patent number: 5947462
    Abstract: A pump and filter assembly comprising a filter cover secured onto a filter body by a locking ring. A one-piece latching mechanism, integral to the locking ring and composed of flexible material, biases a latching end of the latching mechanism against the locking ring, causing the latching end of the latching mechanism to project through a slit in the locking ring into a notch on the outside of the filter body when the filter body is completely threadably engaged with the locking ring. The latching portion of the latching mechanism is easily biased away from the slit and the notch, facilitating disengagement of the locking ring from the filter body and filter cover. The entire latching mechanism is itself easily removed from the locking ring, facilitating repair or replacement of the latching mechanism.
