摘要:
A device for humidifying respiratory gases is provided. The device includes: an all-polymer humidification chamber; a heating element positioned independently and proximate to the humidification chamber; a base unit supporting the humidification chamber; a computer that sends adjustment instructions to a water filling valve coupled with the humidification chamber; a plurality of sensors determining light within the humidification chamber and coupled with the base unit; an airflow conduit coupled with the humidification chamber; a heater wire within the airflow conduit; and an insulation material with grooves thereon surrounding the heater wire. The adjustment instructions instruct the water filling valve to self-adjust to meet a predetermined water level objective. The airflow conduit delivers gas to the patient. The heater wire heats the gas being delivered. The grooves on the insulation wire wick water within the humidification chamber away to re-evaporation regions.

摘要:
An injection-molding machine includes various devices for increasing production efficiency and protecting the mold from closing on molded articles. A method for increasing production efficiency and protecting the mold from closing on articles, or portions thereof, is disclosed. This detection system and method determines if a molded article, or portion thereof, remains in the mold after the first ejection sequence has occurred. This condition is determined by the article-detection controller which enables the molding machine controller to perform the next molding cycle if the said molded article, or portion thereof, is not detected in said mold. The article-detection controller enables the molding machine controller to perform an additional ejection sequence on the mold ejector system if said molded article, or portion thereof, is detected in said mold. If the molded article, or portion thereof, is detected in said mold after the second ejection, subsequent ejection sequences and inspections are performed to self-correct the problem. After exhausting the predetermined number of ejection sequences, the molding machine controller will signal for alternative intervention.
摘要:
An injection-molding machine includes various devices for protecting the mold from closing on molded articles. A method for protecting the mold from closing on articles, or portions thereof, is disclosed. This detection system and method self-determines the amount of inspection zones being utilized by the mold and the function of each zone. Zones can have sensors performing either drop monitoring or article detection. The conditions of each of the zones prior to ejection and the conditions of each of the zones after ejection of a master cycle are recorded. The conditions of each of the zones prior to ejection and the conditions of each of the zones after ejection of subsequent cycles are compared to the conditions of the master cycle. If all zones were at least temporarily satisfied, and the current and master cycles have identical conditions prior to ejection and after ejection, the mold is allowed to close.
