  • Publication number: 20230282435
    Abstract: A safety system for a battery-powered fog generator is described, designed to operate on a vaporization coil (2) of a fogging fluid; the safety system includes: a fuse wire (1), each placed at one end of the coil (2), suitable for heating both due to a Joule effect and through heat coming from the coil (2) by thermal conduction, the fusible wire (1) being therefore designed to melt when its temperature exceeds a melting threshold value, interrupting the power supply from the battery to the coil (2); a sensor (6) designed to detect the temperature of the coil (2) when current flows in it; and a control unit (7) operatively connected to the sensor (6).

  • Publication number: 20220219180
    Abstract: A fog-generating system (1) is described, comprising: a tank (5) containing fog-generating fluid; a pump (3) connected to the tank (5) to withdraw the fog-generating fluid therefrom; a serpentine (2) connected to the pump (3) to receive the fog-generating fluid pumped by the pump (3), the serpentine (2) being divided into a first section (A) connected to the pump (3) and a second section (B) connected to the first section (A) and designed to emit dry fog (7) as output; a battery (6) connected to the serpentine (2) to pass electric current inside the serpentine (2) and to supply the pump (3); a differential amplifier (11) connected to the second section (B); and a threshold comparator (13) which, upon exceeding a certain voltage, a stop index of the serpentine (2) in the second section (B), breaks the supply to the pump (3).

  • Patent number: 10843872
    Abstract: A guide module (1) for making a movement plane including: a rotation unit (20) rotatable about a longitudinal axis (Z); a ball (30) mounted on the rotation unit (20) a respective actuation pin (31) rotatable relative to the rotation unit (20) about a transversal axis (X), perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (Z), the transversal axis (X) being fixed relative to the rotation unit (20); a first actuator (52) acting on the rotation unit (20) for moving in an adjustable fashion the rotation unit (20) about the longitudinal axis (Z); and a second actuator (54) acting on the actuation pin (31) of the ball (30) for moving the ball (30) about the transversal axis (X).

  • Publication number: 20150028158
    Abstract: A quick-disconnecting device (1), in particular for kite-surf, comprising a fixed element (3) and a moving element (5) having an operating connecting position in which the moving element (5) is kept integral with the fixed element (3) by interposing a blocking system (7), and an operating disconnecting position in which the moving element (5) is disengaged from the fixed element (3) by actuating the blocking system (7), such moving element (5) being equipped with a first connecting end (9), of a terminal (21) of a connecting element to by actuating the blocking system (7), such moving element (5) cooperating with the fixed element (3) through a lever-type dynamics around a fulcrum point (F) interposed between the moving element (5) and the fixed element (3), such device (1) further comprising an automatic fastening system (40) of the moving element (5) to the connecting element.

  • Publication number: 20080196845
    Abstract: A monodirectional braking mechanism is disclosed, for use with a device for extending and retracting a sheet of material on a roller, the braking mechanism comprising: one or more than one housing containing viscous fluid, one or more that one rotor within the housing; a brake connected to the rotor and placed within the housing, the brake comprising a projecting pin; a braking spring wound around the pin of the brake and placed outside the housing; where the braking mechanism reduces the force or rate, or both the force and rate, of rotation of the roller as the roller is rotated in a second rotation direction but has substantially no effect on the force or rate of rotation of the roller when the roller is rotated in a first rotation direction; and where the first rotation direction is the reverse of the second rotation direction.
