Abstract: An on demand supplemental oxygen delivery system that is self-calibrating includes a tank containing a supply of oxygen and a nasal cannula through which the oxygen may be provided to a patient when the system solenoid valve is in the open condition. When the valve is in the closed condition, the cannula communicates with a pressure transducer via a transducer line. An orifice is formed in the line so that the pressure within the transducer line goes to atmospheric pressure when the valve is in the open condition. The pressure transducer reads the atmospheric pressure and directs it to a system controller where it is stored as a reference pressure.

Abstract: A carbon dioxide dry cleaning system features a pair of liquid carbon dioxide storage tanks in communication with a compressor. A sealed cleaning chamber contains the objects to be cleaned. By selectively pressurizing the storage tanks with the compressor, liquid carbon dioxide is made to flow to the cleaning chamber through cleaning nozzles so as to provide agitation of the objects being dry cleaned. Liquid carbon dioxide displaced from the cleaning chamber returns to the storage tanks. In an alternative embodiment, a single storage tank is pressurized via a compressor with gas from the cleaning chamber so that liquid solvent from the storage tank travels to the cleaning chamber through nozzles. The objects in the cleaning chamber are agitated by a rotating basket. After a prewash cycle, liquid solvent from the cleaning chamber is directed to a still. The liquid solvent in the still is boiled through a connection with the head space of the cleaning chamber. The still may be positioned within the storage tank and partially surrounded with a shroud for efficient heating of the still with gas from the cleaning chamber. During agitation, liquid solvent from the cleaning chamber may be heated and filtered.

Abstract: A body structure includes an inlet port that receives fluid from a delivery device, a top-fill outlet port that connects to a top-fill line in communication with a cryogenic tank, a bottom-fill port that connects to a bottom-fill line in communication with a cryogenic tank and a slider tube cylinder. A cylinder housing is connected to the body structure and has a pressure comparison cylinder with an upper volume and a lower volume, with the latter in fluid communication with a cryogenic tank. A piston slides within the pressure comparison cylinder and a piston shaft is connected to the piston. A pressure regulator is in fluid communication with the upper volume of the pressure comparison cylinder and the slider tube cylinder. A slider tube is connected to the piston shaft and slides within the slider tube cylinder. The slider tube cylinder directs fluid to a top-fill line through the top-fill outlet port when a pressure in the lower volume exceeds a pressure setpoint and fluid to a bottom-fill line through the bottom-fill outlet port when the pressure in the lower volume is below a pressure setpoint. An over-pressure member is positioned in the upper volume of the pressure comparison cylinder. The piston contacts the over-pressure member as the piston slides upward in the pressure comparison cylinder.

Abstract: A vaporizer system includes a defrosting function along with the ability to convert liquefied gas to a use gas. The vaporizer system includes first and second vaporizers and piping that transfers fluid from an inlet port to an outlet port with a portion of the piping being between the first and second vaporizer. The system also includes a trim heater and a number of valves for regulating flow of the fluid through the transfer piping. The valves may be placed in a first configuration where vapor from the first vaporizer is heated and directed to the second vaporizer so that the second vaporizer is defrosted and a second configuration where vapor from the second vaporizer is heated and directed to the first vaporizer so that the first vaporizer is defrosted.

Abstract: A flow meter assembly for a dispensing line includes a differential pressure transmitter, a pressure transmitter, a temperature transmitter and a controller in communication with each transmitter. The controller is configured to use data collected from the transmitters to determine if there is subcooling or two-phase flow of a fluid flowing through the dispensing line and to meter fluid flowing through the dispensing line if there is subcooling or no two-phase flow.
