    摘要: A tri-chamber nutating pump is disclosed which includes two pump chambers disposed within a pump housing that accommodates a nutating piston. A reciprocating compensating piston is also provided with its own compensating housing that is connected to the outlet. As a cumulative output from the first two pump chambers reaches its maximum level, the compensating piston is pushed into the outlet or through a passage to reduce the output of the first two chambers and avoid splashing. As the output from the first two chambers reaches its minimum level, the compensating piston is withdrawn from the outlet or through a passage thereby increasing the output of the third chamber to its maximum level when the output from the first two pump chambers reaches its minimum level.

    摘要: One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for a way to dispense a variety of liquids, such as paint tinting liquids, while mitigating some problems associated with such systems. A system can help to mitigate these issues by adjusting the temperature at the nozzle tip to match dew point temperature conditions of the ambient air. In controlling the nozzle temperature and environment at the nozzle tip, for example, drying and condensation may be mitigated. A nozzle can be coupled with a nozzle block and temperature controller to control the temperature of the nozzle. A variety of sensors can be used to detect environmental conditions, and a system controller can use the sensor readings to adjust the temperature of the temperature controller to match an ambient dew point.

    摘要: An actuator system having a stationary circular array of mechanical devices. The actuator system includes two stationary motors: one motor to rotate the actuator implement around the circular array of mechanical devices until the desired mechanical device is reached; and a second motor to rotate the actuator implement into engagement with an actuator pin of the mechanical device. A nozzle includes a three-sided or U-shaped stationary enclosure, together with a movable gate that completes the enclosure and forms an adjustable size nozzle outlet. As the gate closes after a dispense is complete, a controlled flow of residual liquid exits the nozzle outlet to avoid any additional displacement, thus preventing the undesirable effect of liquid being squeezed out of the nozzle outlet as the gate closes. Conversely, when the gate opens, this sniff back action operates in reverse, thereby filling the nozzle outlet and preventing air from filling the nozzle.

    摘要: A system for detecting the level of a fluid in a dispensing container may comprise a pressure sensor comprising a detection end disposed inside a dispensing canister. The dispensing canister may have a top and a bottom that is configured to dispense a fluid. The pressure sensor may be operably attached to the canister. The system may further comprise a processing unit comprising a motor control board and a control circuit comprising a processor and programming resident in memory to determine the level at which the fluid is present.
