| 20150320078 | DEVICE FOR TRANSFERRING LIQUID, SEMILIQUID OR POWDERED PRODUCTS AND SYSTEM FOR MIXING THE PRODUCTS - A device for transferring liquid, semiliquid or powdered basic products including: a main body designed to form a plurality of transfer channels defining respective conveying paths which are at least partly separate from one another, each including a respective inlet for a basic product, said main body including an outlet shared by said transfer channels. | 11-12-2015 |
| 20150345703 | STATION FOR FILLING TANKS WTIH COMPRESSED GAS - Station for filling compressed-gas tanks, comprising a gas distribution terminal comprising at least one pipe one end of which is fitted with a connector to be fluidically connected to a tank, the distribution terminal being fluidically connected to a source of gas via a compressed-gas distribution circuit, the station comprising at least one heat exchanger to cool the gas, the heat exchanger being situated on the distribution circuit, the distribution terminal and the heat exchanger being arranged on a common support, the heat exchanger being arranged underneath the distribution terminal, and the support being able to move between a lowered first position in which the base of the terminal rests at ground level while the heat exchanger is situated in a cavity below ground level, and a raised second position in which the exchanger is raised out of the cavity to ground level or above ground level. | 12-03-2015 |
| 20150345706 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REFUELING A COMPRESSED GAS PRESSURE VESSEL USING A THERMALLY COUPLED NOZZLE - A pressure vessel refuelling system enables consistent mass flow rates and reduces the in-tank temperature rise caused by the heat of compression as gas is added to a vessel. The system includes a pressure vessel having a first gas inlet/outlet port and an interior cavity, and a nozzle is in fluid communication with the first gas inlet/outlet port. The nozzle and the pressure vessel are thermally coupled such that Joule-Thomson expansion of a gas flowing through the nozzle cools the interior cavity and contents of the pressure vessel. | 12-03-2015 |
| 20160060096 | Fluid Dispensing Unit Having a Circulation System and a Method for Circulating a Fluid in a Fluid Dispensing Unit - A dispensing unit is provided having a circulation system for circulating a fluid in the dispensing unit is provided. The circulation system, can include a circulation circuit, and a mechanism configured to circulate the fluid in the circulation circuit. By circulating the fluid, the fluid is counteracted from crystallizing. A method for circulating a fluid in a dispensing unit is also provided. | 03-03-2016 |
