    摘要: A gravity-feed bin includes a generally hollow main bin having an open end, a storage reservoir and a dispensing chute. The dispensing chute has an opening disposed near a distal end. The bin also includes a gate seal and a dispensing gate movable between open and closed positions. When the dispensing gate is in the closed position the dispensing gate blocks the opening of the dispensing chute and the gate seal forms a seal between the opening and the dispensing gate. A first generally hollow extension section may be selectably coupled to the open end of the main bin. A resilient seal element may be intermediate the open end of the main bin and the first extension section. In some embodiments a gasket lid having a sealing gasket is selectably coupled to the bin.

    摘要: An anti-oxidation bulk product dispensing system for oxidation-sensitive bulk product includes a gravity-feed bin, an oxygen displacement substance, a supply source, and a control valve. A reservoir of the gravity feed bin is filled through an inlet with oxidation-sensitive bulk product. The product is stored in the reservoir and selectively dispensed through an outlet of the bin. The bin inadvertently receives oxygenated ambient air while receiving and dispensing the product. The supply source is configured to selectively provide the oxygen displacement substance to the bin. The control valve is in communication with the supply source and the bin and is configured to selectively deliver the oxygen displacement substance to the bin. The oxygen displacement substance displaces the oxygenated ambient air in the bin, thereby lessening oxidation of the stored product.

    摘要: An electrical terminal assembly includes at least one terminal, at least one terminal seal, and a terminal retainer. The terminal has a head and a shank, and the shank is configured to be received by a structure having an aperture. The terminal seal is configured to receive and engage the shank, and the shank is configured to engage the structure proximate the aperture. The terminal seal cooperates with the shank and the structure to resist ingress of contaminants into the aperture. The terminal retainer is configured to receive and selectably engage the head of the terminal and to electrically insulate the head. The terminal retainer is further configured to secure the terminal against rotation.

    摘要: A power control system includes a first switch configured to receive electrical power from a power source and selectably provide the electrical power to a load. A current limiter is intermediate the first switch and the load. A second switch is also configured to receive electrical power from the power source and selectably provide electrical power to the load. The power control system includes a soft-start operating mode wherein the first switch is activated to provide the electrical power to the load, current provided to the load being limited by the current limiter. The second switch is also activated to provide the electrical power to the load, the second switch being activated a predetermined period of time after activation of the first switch. The first and second switches are also deactivated while the voltage of the power source exceeds a predetermined level.

    摘要: A probe for detecting K-alpha photon emissions. A housing has an aperture at an end. A detector crystal is situated within the housing adjacent to the housing aperture. An energy conversion device is situated within the housing between the detector crystal and the aperture. The energy conversion device is made from a predetermined material configured to convert energy directed through the housing aperture from a source of primary photon emission radiation to a corresponding secondary K-alpha emission within a predetermined emission energy acceptance window. A power supply is coupled to the detector crystal and is configured to establish a polarized electrical field between the anode and the cathode of the detector crystal. The detector crystal receives the K-alpha emission and generates an electrical signal representative of the amount of target emissions received through the housing aperture.
