  • Patent number: 11067426
    Abstract: A tank (1) of electrically conductive liquid (12) comprising an enclosure (2) for storage of the liquid (12) delimited by at least one wall (13), a capacitive sensor (5) for measuring the liquid level inside said enclosure (2), and a device (6) for processing the output signal of the sensor (5) outside of the enclosure (2) comprising, in order to form a capacitor, a dielectric (11) and a first frame (10) electrically connectable to a source (18) for supplying power and to the processing device. The first frame (10) is arranged outside the enclosure (2), the dielectric (11) can be at least partially interposed between said first frame (10) and the electrically conductive liquid (12) and the dielectric (11) is formed by at least one part (131) of the wall (13) delimiting the enclosure (2) suitable for coming into contact with the electrically conductive liquid (12) contained inside the enclosure (2).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 7, 2018
    Date of Patent: July 20, 2021
    Assignee: TRISTONE FLOWTECH SOLUTIONS (TFS)

  • Patent number: 9759123
    Abstract: A liquid container including: at least two compartments (2; 3) which are each provided with a fluid inlet and outlet and which are connectable to a fluid flow circuit, respectively, at least one communication area (4) between the compartments (2; 3), at least one opening (5) for filling the container, at least one plug (6) for closing the opening (5) for filling the container, the opening (5) for filling the container is an opening common to the compartments (2, 3) and the container further includes at least one member (7) for closing the communication area (4) between the compartments (2, 3), the closing member being movably mounted between an open position of the area and a closed position of the area, the closing member being in a closed position of the area in a closed position of the filling opening plug.
