Abstract: A device for dispensing oils, antifreeze and other fluids from drums or other bulk containers has a rotary air motor which powers a gerotor-type pumping element. The pumping element has at least one magnet thereon and an electronics package is provided which counts the number of magnetic pulses which occur during the rotation of the gerotor and converts it over to the quantity of material pumped. A valve controls the flow of air to the air motor which in turn allows an operator to control the dispensing of fluid from the outlet of the pumping element.

Abstract: A submersible pumping unit having a diaphragm pumping chamber connected to one end of an elongated tube, the interior of the tube being filled with hydraulic oil and a reciprocable solid of like density, the other end of the tube being connected to an oil chamber including a reciprocable piston for developing hydraulic pressure and flow oscillations at a predetermined frequency, wherein the hydraulic pressure and flow oscillations are transferred via the tube and the solid in the tube to the diaphragm pumping chamber for pumping the liquid in which the diaphragm pumping chamber is submersed.

Abstract: A reciprocation valve for a hydraulically actuated reciprocation motor, wherein the motor has hydraulic inlet and outlet passages into a cylinder through a porting block, and a slidable collar is fitted over the porting block for selectively opening and closing the passages, and a lightweight carriage assembly is attached to the collar and is actuated by a trip rod coupled to a piston within the cylinder.

Abstract: An improved hydraulic pump wherein a piston is mechanically reciprocated by a suitable drive in an oil chamber, and a second piston is caused to reciprocate by the oil pressure developed in the chamber, the second piston also reciprocating in a pumping chamber to cause the pumping of a liquid through the pumping chamber; a diaphragm attached to the second piston provides liquid isolation between the oil chamber and the pumping chamber.

Abstract: An apparatus for reciprocating a piston in a diaphragm pump wherein the piston alternately pressurizes and relieves an oil filled chamber having a diaphragm separating the chamber from a liquid pumping chamber, the invention comprising a bearing shoe interposed between the piston and driving crank shaft, wherein the shoe has oil ports for lubricating and for relieving excess fluid volume from the oil chamber during each piston stroke.

Abstract: Apparatus for producing a fog/spray as a coating medium for articles. The apparatus comprises a trigger actuated gun having an inlet connected to a source of hydraulically pressurized spray fluid, wherein the pressurizing medium and drive source is itself driven by a compressible fluid such as air. The compressible fluid supply line to the drive source has mounted therein a flow sensing valve which actuates an air valve for controlling atomizing air supply to the applicator gun. The atomizing air supply to the applicator gun is coupled into a gun chamber downstream of the spray orifice so that fluid sprayed through the orifice becomes fogged by the pressurized air in the chamber.

Abstract: An applicator by which small, discrete, uniform quantities of molten thermoplastic adhesive can be dispensed in rapid succession comprises a body having a heated inlet chamber, which hot melt enters under low pressure, and a pump chamber. A plunger in the pump chamber is reciprocated by a pneumatic motor. A charging stroke of the plunger draws hot melt out of the inlet chamber, across a check valve and into the pump chamber. The discharging stroke expels the hot melt across an outlet check valve and through an outlet orifice coaxial with the pump chamber.
