| 222464600 | Float | 2 |
| 20120187156 | FLOATING FLUID INLET FOR LIQUID CONTAINERS AND METHOD OF USE THEREOF - A floating fluid inlet that adjusts to the level of a beverage within a soda keg or similar container. The floating fluid inlet is constructed preferably of stainless steel and food grade plastic tubing. By rotating its inlet port aperture from downward facing when the soda keg is full of a beverage, to upward facing when the soda keg is nearly empty, the floating fluid inlet avoids picking up sediment from the bottom of the soda keg. The principal components are a tube that connects at its one end to the outlet port of a soda keg and at its other end to a pickup tube that is retained within a bracket to which is attached a float. The pickup tube has an aperture disposed in its sidewall for ingress of a beverage. | 07-26-2012 |
| 20120273529 | CONTAINER WITH TUBE DRAWING DESIRED FLUID CONCENTRATIONS FOR MICRO-FLUID APPLICATIONS - A consumable supply item for an imaging device holds an initial or refillable volume of pigmented ink. Its housing defines an interior and a fluid exit port. Users orient the housing to deplete the ink in a downward direction. A float on a surface of the ink suspends an inlet opening of a fluid conduit tube underneath the surface. A height of the opening falls downward as the fluid depletes and the float drops. The tube draws a desired concentration of ink and supplies it to the exit port. The concentration is predetermined relative to an overall height of the fluid. The tube height remains proportional to the height of the fluid, increases/decreases proportionally, or other. The design overcomes settling. The design also avoids mechanical stirring and other complex sediment mixing techniques. Embodiments include float/tube arrangements and testing observations, to name a few. | 11-01-2012 |
