A housing defines a housing interior. An air pump is within the housing interior. A first set of dampers supports the air pump within the housing. The first set of dampers at least partially isolates vibration of the air pump from the housing. A second set of dampers is configured to at least partially isolate vibration of the air pump from the housing. The second set of dampers arranged in series with the first set of dampers.

Controlling vibration transmission within inflation assemblies

A method for obtaining a chemical concentration from a chemical composition and a fluid includes introducing the fluid through ports in a manifold diffuse member positioned adjacent a chemical composition and adjusting, with a fluid valve, characteristics of the flow of the fluid through the ports in the diffuser manifold to obtain and maintain a chemical concentration. The amount of liquid allowed through the ports modifies the turbulence of the liquid, thereby modifying the erosion rate of the chemical composition. An apparatus for adjusting characteristics of the flow of a fluid contacting a solid product to form a product chemistry includes a diffuser manifold having a manifold diffuse member comprising ports therethrough and a fluid valve for controlling the flow rate of a fluid moving through the plurality of ports and diverting the fluid through various flow paths.

Dispensing a solid chemistry using an adjustable turbulent flow technology manifold

A device for maintaining a pneumatic conveyance line can include a body having one or more wings. In some examples, the body is configured to be positioned between opposing rails of a pneumatic conveyance track with the one or more wings positioned on a respective opposing rail of the track. The wings can carry one or more agents for at least one of cleaning and lubricating the track. As the device is pushed along the track, the device can clean and/or lubricate the track.

Cleaning device for pneumatic conveyance system

A method and apparatus for obtaining a product chemistry from a product and a fluid is provided. A product is housed within a dispenser. A fluid is introduced through a manifold diffuse member having a plurality of ports. A cover is positioned adjacent the manifold diffuse member and includes a plurality of ports. The cover is able to be adjusted, for example, by rotating the cover, to align and un-align the manifold diffuse ports and the cover ports. This adjustment controls the flow characteristics of the fluid through the manifold diffuse member and cover to control the characteristics of the fluid in contact with the product. The adjustment of the cover to control the flow will provide a generally consistent concentration and erosion rate based upon known relationships between a characteristic of the fluid and the flow of the fluid in relation to the product.

Method and apparatus for variation of flow to erode solid chemistry

Embodiments include a dispenser for dispensing a product. The dispenser has a housing, a container, a container holder and a first holder magnetic element positioned on the container holder. The first holder magnetic element and a first stationary magnetic element interact to create a first magnetic force. The first magnetic force can induce the container holder to move. The position of the container holder along an axis of the container holder is correlated with the weight of the product remaining in the container. An indicator may alert user regarding the amount of product remaining in the container based on the position of the container holder.
