Patent number: 8235677Abstract: A compressing diaphragm pump having automatic air expelling and pressure abnormal-preventing features for spray use has a hollow tubular air discharge assembly having a plunger body and compressed spring as well as an air passage pierced at the wall of the water exit port and an air discharge orifice pierced of the central top surface of the air discharge assembly for connecting with the plunger body. When air is mixed within the pressurized water, the resilient force of the compressed spring is bigger than the water pressure of the pressurized water. This allows the air mixed in the pressurized water to get into the air passage and pass the plunger opening of the plunger body via through pore, and is dispelled out of the upper hood via the air discharge orifice of the air discharge assembly.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2008Date of Patent: August 7, 2012Inventors: Ying Lin Cai, Chao Fou Hsu

Patent number: 8062002Abstract: In a vacuum unit for use in drawing a vacuum on a steam sterilizer, a pump circulates water through an ejector and a reservoir. Fresh water is injected at the pump inlet to maintain a low temperature in the ejector so that it can operate efficiently. Excess water is taken from a location adjacent the bottom of the reservoir through an internal dip tube, and passed through a U-shaped conduit that serves as a condensate trap. To maintain the water discharge temperature below a predetermined level, fresh water is injected into the U-shaped conduit through a valve controlled by a temperature sensor downstream from the water injection point.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2008Date of Patent: November 22, 2011Assignee: R-V Industries, IncInventors: Adam L.

Patent number: 6330915Abstract: A system for separating particulates from a liquid prior to pumping of the liquid. The system is amenable to use, for example, in a wellbore environment for separating sand or other particulate matter from a production fluid.

Patent number: 4292011Abstract: An improved power fluid driven turbo pump is provided for pumping oil wells of the type having, from time-to-time, significant quantities of gas included in the oil so that wide variations in the density of the medium to be pumped may be expected to be encountered. Two separate pumping units driven by the same power fluid are employed, one of which is designed to efficiently compress and pump gas, and the other is designed to efficiently pump normal density fluids. Since the pumps are disposed in series, the combined efficiency of the pumps is substantially unchanged due to changes in density of the fluid to be pumped and remains at a uniformly high level.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 1979Date of Patent: September 29, 1981Assignee: Kobe, Inc.Inventor: John W.
