Abstract: A method and system for formulating and dispensing a chemical product to a dispense location is disclosed. The chemical product is formulated using one or more chemical concentrates. The chemical concentrates may be stored in concentrate containers and provided to a formulator by associated concentrate pumps. The concentrates are pulled from the containers through a manifold and to the formulator. The formulator discharges the chemical concentrates through a dispense hose having an outlet valve to the dispense location. The dispense location may be a jug or a drum. A flow meter connected between the formulator and the dispense hose. The flow meter monitors the component chemical concentrates flowing through the dispense hose and measures volumetric information associated with each component chemical concentrate. A flow controller analyzes the volumetric information generated by the flow meter and controls the volume of each component chemical concentrate dispensed to the dispense location.

Abstract translation: 公开了一种用于将化学产品配制和分配到分配位置的方法和系统。 使用一种或多种化学浓缩物配制化学产品。 化学浓缩物可以储存在浓缩容器中并通过相关的浓缩泵提供给配方设计师。 浓缩物通过歧管从容器中拉到配方设计师。 配制者通过具有出口阀的分配软管将化学浓缩物排放到分配位置。 分配位置可以是水罐或滚筒。 连接在配方设计师和分配软管之间的流量计。 流量计监测流经分配软管的组分化学浓缩物，并测量与各组分化学浓缩物相关的体积信息。 流量控制器分析由流量计产生的体积信息，并控制分配到分配位置的每个组分化学浓缩物的体积。

Abstract: A method for automatically cleaning and lubricating conveyor belt systems is disclosed. A microprocessor controlled control unit senses the movement of the conveyor belt and the presence of items, for example bottles, on the conveyor. The control unit initiates the application of lubricant, detergent and rinse water onto the conveyor according to the speed of the conveyor, the presence of items and the time passed since the previous application. If the conveyor is stationary, that is, is not in motion, no lubricant or cleaning solution is applied. If the conveyor is moving but no items are on the belt, a reduced amount of lubricant is dispensed onto the conveyor system. The conveyor cleaning and lubricating process may be carried out during normal production operations.
