Abstract: A rocker switch assembly features a rocker switching mechanism and a rocker base housing. The rocker switching mechanism has a switch cover and rocker configured to rock between rocking positions in response to rocking switch forces applied thereon, and provide a rocking switch actuator force. The rocker base housing has a piezo buzzer and rocker switch circuitry, e.g., including contacts/terminals. The piezo buzzer is configured to respond to the rocking switch actuator force, and provide signaling from the piezo buzzer to rocker switch circuitry, based upon the rocking switch actuator force applied.

Abstract: A control valve features a first housing and a second housing. The first housing includes a first inlet port having a first inlet port orifice member with a first inlet port orifice size configured to provide a first inlet fluid with a first inlet volumetric flow rate, the first inlet port orifice member being detachably coupled inside the first inlet port; includes a second inlet port having a second inlet port orifice member with a second inlet port orifice size configured to provide a second inlet fluid with a second inlet volumetric flow rate, the second inlet port orifice member being detachably coupled inside the second inlet port; and includes a first housing rim configured to extend from the first fixed inlet and the second fixed inlet. The second housing includes a second housing rim coupled to the first housing rim and configured to form a mixture chamber to mix the first inlet fluid received from the first fixed inlet orifice and the second inlet fluid received from the second fixed inlet orifice and provide a mixture chamber fluid; and an outlet port having an outlet port orifice with an outlet port orifice size configured to provide the mixture chamber fluid as an outlet port fluid having an outlet volumetric flow rate. The outlet port fluid has a mixture ratio of the first inlet fluid and the second inlet fluid for a particular application that depends on dimensions of the first inlet port orifice size, the second inlet port orifice size and the outlet port orifice size.

Abstract: An automatic self-driving pump system features a pump/motor/drive detector and an automatic self-driving and control design/setup module. In operation, the pump/motor/drive detector receives sensed signaling containing information about a pump/drive for operating in a hydronic pump system, e.g., stored in and sensed from a signature chip or barcode installed that can be scanned by a scanner, and provides corresponding database signaling containing information about parameters for providing automatic pump control design, setup and run to control the pump/drive for operating in the hydronic pump system, based upon the sensed signaling received. The automatic self-driving and control design/setup module receives the corresponding database signaling, and provides control signaling containing information for providing the automatic pump control design, setup and run to control the pump/drive for operating in the hydronic pump system, based upon the corresponding database signaling received.

Abstract: A dispense tap with integral gas/liquid infusion for dispensing a beverage at a given dispensing point inside a restaurant, a coffee shop, a bar, or a convenience store, features a mixing chamber having at least one gas input port configured to receive at least one incoming gas stream; at least one liquid input port configured to receive at least one incoming liquid or concentrate stream; and an infuser configured to mix the at least one incoming gas stream and the at least one incoming liquid or concentrate stream at the given dispensing point within the dispensing tap, and provide a mixing chamber stream containing a gas infused liquid mixture of the at least one incoming gas stream and the at least one incoming liquid or concentrate stream for dispensing as a beverage. The degree of absorption of the at least one incoming gas stream and the at least one incoming liquid or concentrate stream in the gas infused liquid mixture depends at least in part on sensed gas, liquid or concentrate pressure characteristics of one or more of the at least one incoming gas stream received by the infuser, the at least one incoming liquid or concentrate stream received by the infuser, or the gas infused liquid mixture provided from the infuser.

Abstract: A high viscosity portion pump system has a single piston portion pump having a piston/diaphragm assembly arranged on a piston shaft forming liquid and gas chambers, which moves from a starting-position and provides high viscosity fluid from the liquid chamber when gas is received by the gas chamber; has an elastic member arranged on a retainer coupled to the shaft in a compartment in a pump housing, which moves the assembly back to the position and draws further fluid into the liquid chamber when the gas is released; and has a piston position sensor that responds to the position of the shaft and provides signaling containing information about when the assembly is in the position or completed a stroke from the position. A gas control system includes a signal processor that receives the signaling, and provides corresponding signaling containing information about when to provide or release the gas.

Abstract: A check valve is provided having a seat and a poppet. The seat is made of a plastic material, has an aperture for enabling fluid to flow through the seat, and also has one end portion that has a circumferential edge with a thin sealing lip. The poppet is slidably arranged in the aperture of the seat and has an elastic member. The poppet is configured for opening to enable fluid to flow in one direction when fluid pressure is detected. The elastic member is configured for ensuring sealing between an outer surface of the poppet and the thin sealing lip of the seat when there is no fluid flow in the one direction so as to substantially prevent fluid flow in the opposite direction. According to some embodiments of the present invention, the thin plastic sealing lip may have a thickness of about 0.01″ Embodiments are also envisioned where the thickness may be in a range of 0.003″-0.03″.
