| A medication filling and management system comprises a medication storage device for assisting patients in filling and managing medication supplies. The medication storage device includes a number of electronically monitored storage compartments and a communication system to identify a medication to be provided from an adjacent medication commercial package, automatically identify to a user which compartments of the storage device are to be filled with the identified medication from the commercial package, and detect and communicate the filling and dispensing of the medication from the storage device. | ||||||

| 43 | Washer fluid spraying apparatus | EP06253672.7 | 2006-07-13 | EP1743817A3 | 2009-08-12 | Yamaguchi, Kazayuki c/o Intel. Property Department |
A washer fluid spraying apparatus is provided. When the amount of the remaining washer fluid in the tank is reduced, the buoyant force of the float (51b) does not have an effect to the valve member (51a), and therefore the cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the valve member (51a) is reduced. Consequently spraying amount is limited compared to a case where there is a plenty of amount of remaining washer fluid. Therefore, compared to the structure that controls the washer pump (2) driving status by detecting the remaining amount by a sensor (5), the driver of the vehicle can know that the amount of the remaining washer fluid in the tank is reduced while limiting the manufacturing costs.

| 44 | WHISTLING VENT WITH BUFFER RESERVOIR | EP04714704.6 | 2004-02-26 | EP1601937A1 | 2005-12-07 | HAWKINS, Murray |
| An accumulating whistling vent for indicating a level of liquid in a tank having a vent line is disclosed. The whistling vent includes a whistle housing reservoir which has mounting tubes extending from either ends. A whistle is housed in the whistle housing reservoir by insertion into one of the mounting tubes. The whistling vent is coupled between the vent line of the tank such that the tube containing the whistle is closest to the tank. As liquid is introduced into the tank an audible signal is produced by the whistle. Once full, air flowing from the tank through the vent line is replaced by the incoming liquid, thus muting the whistle. Excess liquid is accumulated in the reservoir prior to discharge from the vent line, thereby providing additional time to respond to the change in audible signal. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, a transparent reservoir is used to provide a visual indicator in addition to the change in audible signal. In another preferred embodiment of the invention a fuel filter and brass key chain whistle are used to minimize manufacturing costs. | ||||||

A fuel overflow prevention system for substantially eliminating fuel spillage both due to over-filling during fueling and due to fuel expansion in fuel tanks. The device includes a fuel discharge preventor (11) and a nozzle adapter (10) that work together during re-fueling to allow displacement by fuel of gases within the fuel tank until such time that the fuel reaches a predetermined level (14) in the tank. The predetermined level is chosen through the geometry of the fuel discharge preventor so as to provide sufficient space for thermal expansion of the fuel without subsequent fuel spillage. The fuel discharge preventor also contains a valve (18) that closes upon attainment of the predetermined fuel level (14) and, together with the nozzle adapter (10), causes a pressure build-up within the filling fuel tank so as to positively actuate the automatic turn-off features of the standard fuel pump nozzle utilized. |

| Une cartouche à gaz cylindrique, qui contient du gaz liquéfié, donne l'alarme grâce à une structure simple utilisant l'énergie de jaillissement du gaz consommé quand le volume du combustible restant descend à ou sous un niveau prédéterminé, pour donner un avertissement de remplacement de cette cartouche. Une soupape (12) permettant ou interdisant la sortie du gaz liquéfié est disposée au centre, dans une des extrémités du corps (11a) de cartouche. Un conduit (17) de gaz, dont une extrémité s'ouvre dans un volume de gaz situé au-dessus du niveau de combustible, quand la cartouche de gaz est horizontale, est raccordé à cette soupape (12). Un vibrateur (27), destiné à produire un son par vibration et à heurter uncorps du fait du jaillissement du gaz, se trouve dans le conduit (17) de gaz. Ce vibrateur (27) est relié à un amortisseur (38) par un raccord (39). L'amortisseur (38) est situé sous un niveau prédéterminé de gaz liquéfié et il est soumis à une résistance lorsqu'il se déplace dans ce gaz. Il supprime le bruit de collision dû au vibrateur (27) en opposant une résistance à ce dernier quand le niveau de gaz liquéfié dépasse la valeur prédéterminée, mais pas quand il est au-dessous de cette valeur, ce qui donne une alarme indiquant la réduction du niveau de combustible restant. | ||||||

| The invention concerns an external device for indicating that a fuel tank (2) is filled up comprising a container (8) linked to said tank and provided at its upper part with a vent hole (10) and in its lower part with a floater (11). Said device is characterised in that the base of said container (8) is arranged above or substantially at the same level as the maximum filling level of the tank (2), the container being linked by its base proximate to the tank (2) upper part by a communicating conduit (4a), while the floater (11) has an electric contact connected to a signal and control box (13) arranged proximate to the opening of the tank filling conduit (3), so as to generate at least a warning signal when said container is partly filled by the communicating conduit (4a) after the tank (2) has been completely filled. The invention is particularly designed to equip a reservoir (2) provided with an air intake conduit such as a boat tank and in that case, the container (8) is inserted between two parts (4a, 4b) of said conduit. | ||||||

| A cassette type gas cylinder, containing liquefied fuel gas, for giving an alarm when the volume of remaining fuel is reduced to a predetermined level or less in order to provide an advanced notice of replacement of the gas cylinder with a simple structure using burst energy of discharged gas. A valve (12) for opening and closing the discharged of liquefied gas is arranged at the centre on one end of a container body (11a). A gas flow channel (17), with one end thereof opened into a gas space formed above the level of the fuel when the gas cylinder is laid horizontally, is connected to the valve (12). A vibrating member (27), for producing a sound when vibrated and caused to collide with a body by the burst of the fuel gas, is disposed in the gas flow channel (17). This vibrating member (27) is connected to a damping member (38) by means of a coupling member (29). The damping member (38) is located below a predetermined level of the liquefied fuel gas, and is subjected to resistance while moving in the liquefied fuel gas. The damping member (38) suppresses the production of a collision sound made by the vibrating member (27) by providing the vibrating member (27) with resistance when the level of the liquefied fuel is above the predetermined level, but does not suppress the production of the collision sound when the level of the liquefied fuel is below the predetermined level, thereby giving an alarm indicating the reduction of remaining fuel. | ||||||

An audible low-fuel alarm (50) for a pressurized propane fuel tank is disclosed. A Hall-effect sensor (57) is mounted in relation to a magnet (35) which is rotated in response to the level of fuel within the propane tank. When magnet (35) is rotated to a position to indicate a low fuel condition, the Hall-effect sensor (57) activates a buzzer 53. A mercury switch (55) prevents false low fuel alarms and conserves battery power during inflation of the balloon envelope. |

| An apparatus for estimating the level of feed present within a bulk feed storage tank allows the empty volume of the storage tank above the level of feed to be estimated in order to evaluate the need to order new supplies of feed to be placed within the storage tank. The apparatus includes a slide mechanism having a slide block moveable within a vertically oriented slide tube. A rope entrained around a pulley is attached to the slide block to power movement of the slide block upwardly. A striker member is connected to the slide block and positioned externally of the slide tube. A second rope is attached to the striker member to permit selective actuation thereof to strike the exterior side of the storage tank. The pitch of the reverberation from the striking of the striker member provides an indication of the level of feed within the storage tank. | ||||||
