| 20130187297 | WATER AERATOR USING A COMPRESSED GAS CONTAINER - The water aerator using a compressed gas container is a self-contained unit having a float and a container of compressed gas (e.g., air, oxygen, etc.) installed beneath a perforated diffuser plate that, in turn, is positioned below the float. High-pressure gas from the container flows through a pipe or tube to a regulator valve and pressure gauge at the top of the pipe. A larger diameter low-pressure pipe or tube is placed concentrically about the high-pressure pipe. Regulated low-pressure gas flows down through the outer low-pressure pipe to a dispensing nozzle below the diffuser plate, whereupon the gas flows upward and is broken up by the perforations in the diffuser plate to form smaller aeration bubbles. An electrical power source, pressure switch, and light may be provided to indicate when the compressed gas container is depleted. The device may be motorized. | 07-25-2013 |

In some cases, the first and second locations are on the left and right sides, respectively, of the humidifier housing. | 03-24-2011 |
| 20130037969 | SODA MACHINE PRONGED CLAMP - A pronged clamp apparatus for attaching a soda bottle to a soda machine includes prongs to attach the bottle to the soda machine and a locking mechanism to lock the bottle to the machine at least during carbonation. | 02-14-2013 |
| 20150014871 | SODA MACHINE PRONGED CLAMP - A home use carbonation machine includes a pronged clamp to fit a non-upright bottle to a flexible seal, thereby facilitating a closed carbonation environment in the bottle and a normally open safety valve to vent the bottle when the carbonation machine is not actively carbonating. A home use carbonation machine includes a carbonation assembly to carbonate liquid with pressurized gas, a pronged clamp and a centering ring with centering ribs to guide a non-upright bottle into the pronged clamp during insertion and to constrict prongs of the clamp when a user moves the non-upright bottle towards an upright position for operation. | 01-15-2015 |

| 20120119394 | AUTO CHOKE APPARATUS - In an auto choke apparatus, a throttle valve and a choke valve are provided in a carburetor. A bimetal is provided near a muffler to bring the choke valve back in an opening direction after warm-up is completed. A bimetal lever has amounting hole to which one end of a choke rod is secured. A choke lever has amounting hole having a long hole shape to which the other end of the choke rod is secured. By forming the mounting hole of the choke lever in a long hole shape, the choke lever can be moved with the bimetal lever being stopped so that a throttle lever and the choke lever can be caused to work together without being restricted by the bimetal. | 05-17-2012 |
| 20120161341 | AUTOMATIC CHOKE APPARATUS FOR CARBURETOR - An automatic choke apparatus for a carburetor includes an electric actuator, a choke valve opening/closing mechanism configured to open and close a choke valve by being driven by a power exerted by the electric actuator, and a controller configured to control operation of the electric actuator. The controller, to which a battery supplies electric power, operates the electric actuator and the choke valve opening/closing mechanism in order that, when the engine is stopped, the choke valve is set in a semi-opened position and, when the engine starts to be cranked, the choke valve is set in a fully-closed position. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the choke valve from freezing up in the fully-closed state in a case where the engine is stopped under an extremely low temperature environment. | 06-28-2012 |

An outlet part is open upward, and a valve rod penetrates a lower part of a casing downward. | 10-30-2014 |
| 20080308955 | Apparatus for Mixing a Fluid with a Large Gas Stream, Especially for Introducing a Reducing Agent into a Flue Gas Containing Nitrogen Oxides - An apparatus for mixing a liquid with a large gas stream flowing in a gas duct, especially for introducing reducing agent into flue gas containing nitrogen oxides. At least one metering lance having at least two atomizer nozzles supplies liquid to the gas stream, with the nozzles being inclined relative to the direction of flow of the gas stream and being inclined in opposite directions relative to one another. At least one disk-shaped mixer element is associated with and spaced from the nozzles, and is inclined relative to the direction of flow of the gas stream. Flow eddies form at the mixer element, and at least a portion of the liquid enters the flow eddies. Atomization is effected in such a way by the mixer element that volatilized gaseous portions in the nozzle streams exiting the nozzles enter the flow eddies, while non-volatized droplet portions, due to their inertia and an atomizer angle, do not enter the flow eddies in the vicinity of the mixer element. | 12-18-2008 |
