摘要:
An oval gear pump for shear-sensitive fluids particularly suited for use in dispensing metered amounts of food syrups, condiments, or other thick or viscous liquids. The viscosity of some of such materials tends to degrade when excessive agitation is incurred. The gear pump minimizes such agitation by sweeping integrated masses of substantial volume between the inlet and the outlet. The pumping system also provides a flow-sensing device including a tubular magnet movable against spring pressure by fluid flow to an operated position. When the magnet is in the operated position, an adjacent external switch is operated to produce a signal indicating flow. The pumping system is particularly adapted for use in connection with ice cream dispensing machines.

A brushless permanent magnet electric machine with a fixed radial air gap is operated to a much higher speed than normal maximum speed by the reduction in effective magnet pole strength. Permanent magnets are supported on the inner surface of an axially movable cylindrical shell. A plurality of magnetic poles provided with wire coils are supported on a stationary cylindrical member cooperate with the permanent magnets on the axially movable cylindrical shell to either cause, or react to, rotation of the axially movable cylindrical shell. The axially movable cylindrical shell and cylindrical member are coaxial. The cylindrical shell is axially movable with respect to the cylindrical member.

A pump assembly which includes a pump head which is driven by a rotor that is located in a housing to which the pump head is attached. The pump head includes a drive gear and a driven gear. The drive gear is coupled to the rotor by a shaft which is received at opposite ends by a bearing located in a closed end of the rotor housing and a bearing which is located in the pump head.

A ratio device for dispensing first and second liquids in a preselected ratio, which comprises a housing assembly having two gear pumps interconnected for concurrent operation. One of the gear pumps is configured also to act as a liquid powered motor operative in response to the pressure and flow of the first liquid.

The disclosure concerns a hollow socket and hollow plug therefor and a specific snap clip for locking the plug in the socket by normally bridging radially aligned cooperating grooves in said plug and socket. The plug and socket may include cooperating surfaces between which a gasket or O-ring may be seated for sealing the coupling. The clip primarily comprises a pair of cooperating semicircular diametrically oppositely movable semiannuli or ring sections connected at one of their adjacent parallel ends by an integral spring loop extending substantially axially from the plane of the semiannuli or ring sections. This loop is provided with a pair of parallel legs joined at one end to the adjacent parallel ends of said semiannuli and at their other ends to a more than semi-circular ring. This loop normally urges said semiannuli outwardly into the groove in the socket. The radial width of said semiannuli is about twice the radial depth of said groove in the socket and equal to or slightly less than the radial depth of the groove in the plug, whereby the pinching, such as by a pair of pliers, of the legs of the loop together adjacent said semiannuli enables the semi-annuli to be completely enclosed in the groove in the plug so that the plug may be axially removed from the socket. A segment opening in one side of the groove in the plug is provided for the legs of the loop and their extension beyond the end of the socket, thereby enabling access to said legs for pinching and unlocking the clip from the socket.

A brushless permanent magnet electric machine with a fixed radial air gap is operated to a much higher speed than normal maximum speed by the reduction in effective magnet pole strength. Increasing the amount of axial misalignment of the permanent magnet rotor and constant velocity bearing proportionally increases the speed and reduces the torque. The permanent magnet rotor is offset axially to provide axial misalignment between the rotor magnet poles and the stator, reducing the effective magnet pole strength or flux to the stator. An integral constant velocity linear bearing is used to couple the movable rotor and the fixed position motor shaft. A thrust bearing is actuated to offset the magnetic rotor against the attractive magnetic forces toward the stator. The use of a constant velocity linear bearing allows the motor shaft, radial support bearings, position encoder, cooling fan, and output coupling to remain in a constant position while rotor position is offset.

A boat leveling systems with a pair of trim tabs pivotal between a horizontal position and a downwardly inclined position. Each trim tab is actuatably between the horizontal and inclined positions by a separate fluid motor which includes a cylinder, a piston slidably disposed in the cylinder and a rod connected to the piston. The position of each trim tab is indicated by apparatus which includes a linear potentiometer attached to the rod of the associated fluid motor, the potentiometer having a flexible plastic envelope and a pair of normally spaced-apart conductive strips sealed in the envelope, a ball and spring carried by the cylinder for contacting the envelope and forcing the strips into electrical contact with each other, and a resistance measuring device connected in circuit with the potentiometer and to provide a readout in degrees of the downward angle from horizontal of the trim tab.
