The carbonation duct (1) comprises a tubular structure (12) surrounding a compression structure (13), the compression structure (13) longitudinally positioned inside the tubular structure (12) and setting a pathway (14) for the flowing of the beverage along the carbonation duct (1). The compression structure (13) comprises external diameters (P,C,G) sequentially defining a convergence path (8), a mixture path (19) and a slowdown path (20) along the carbonation duct (1), wherein, in the convergence path (8), the carbonation duct (1) comprises a gas entry portion (9) for gas injection in the pathway (14), and the tubular structure (12) defines a turbilionating projection (10) establishing a carbonation duct (1) mixture diameter (F).
Abstract:
An adjustable gas injector (10) for injecting a gas into a liquid at a controlled rate. The injector (10) includes a housing (12) and a gas flow adjustment device (56). The housing (12) includes primarily a liquid inlet (14), a gas inlet (18), a gas/liquid mixture outlet (32), and a mounting device (44). A mixing chamber (36) is defined between the liquid inlet (14) and the mixture outlet (32). A liquid stream is directed through the chamber (36) where it is mixed with a gas. In the direction of flow, the mixing chamber (36) defines a first region (38) in which the diameter decreases, a throat (40), and a second region (42) in which the diameter increases. The gas inlet (18) opens into the chamber (36) proximate the throat (40). The gas inlet (18) defines first and second channels (26,30). The housing (12) defines an opening (52) collinear with at least a portion of the first channel (26) of the gas inlet (18). At least a portion of the opening (52) defines a threaded receptor (54). The gas flow adjustment device (56) includes a spring-biased-ball (58) seated within the opening (52) against the distal end (28) of the first gas inlet channel (26). A threaded insert (62) is engaged in the threaded receptor (54) to control the pressure applied to the spring (60), and thus control the flow rate of the gas into the chamber (36).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a system for converting fuel and air into reformate. Said system comprises a reformer (10) which is provided with a reaction chamber (12), a nozzle (14) for guiding a fuel/air mixture to the reaction chamber (12) and a fuel feed (16) for supplying fuel into the nozzle (14). According to the invention, means (40) are provided for guiding the air in an air inlet area (18) of the nozzle (14) in order to create a turbulence in the incoming air.
Abstract:
A pump device is provided including: a unitary pump frame; an electromagnet arrangement that includes a winding wrapped around a portion of the unitary pump frame; a diaphragm assembly coupled to the unitary pump frame, which includes a movable diaphragm and a manifold; and a pump arm having a proximal end coupled to the unitary pump frame and a distal end supporting a permanent magnet to interact with the electromagnet arrangement to cause the pump arm to swing back and forth during operation to displace the diaphragm and discharge an air stream from the pump device. Related methods of manufacture are also provided.

Abstract:
A steam injection heater (10) and related methods for injecting steam into a sterile fluid delivery system used to transport a flowing sterile fluid food product. The device (10) includes a tubular member (12) having an inlet (34) for receiving a flow of the fluid food product, an outlet (69) for discharging the flow, and a longitudinal passsageway (20) therebetween. A chamber (14) is disposed radially outward of the passageway (22). The chamber (14) receives steam that is exhausted through an annular opening (52). A flow diverter or valve member (68) is disposed within the longitudinal passageway (20) and fluid food product must flow about the valve member (68). The diverted flow of fluid food product is intersected by the annular flow of injected steam.
Abstract:
The device is used in power engineering, ship-building, and machine-building industries as well as in transport for preparation of high-quality water-fuel emulsions. Objective of the invention is to reduce power consumption. The device for preparation of a water-fuel emulsion comprises a blending chamber 3, as well as a fuel nozzle 4 and a water nozzle 5 for supply of respective mediums in the chamber 3. A nozzle that ensures boiling of water is used as the water nozzle 5. The water nozzle 5 comprises inlet 6 and outlet 7 sections that are respectively convergent and divergent in the direction of the medium flow, between which the minimal cross-section S min of the nozzle is located. The generatrix of a fore part of the divergent section 7 of the nozzle 5 has a concave shape of the curve in relation to the axis of the nozzle 5, which curve goes smoothly into a convex curve in relation to the axis of the nozzle 5 in the critical cross-section S cr of the nozzle 5. The water nozzle 5 is located on a longitudinal axis 2 of the chamber 3 while the fuel nozzle 4 is located in line with the water nozzle 5 and is shaped as a ring enveloping an end part of the water nozzle 5.
