Appl. No.:

10/536765

Inventors:

William A. Cline - Troy MI, US
Michael R. Bonner - Rochester MI, US

International Classification:

B05B 7/16
F24H 3/02

US Classification:

60407, 239135

Abstract:

An anti-condensation control system for devices driven by or utilizing decompressing air is provided. The system includes a supply of compressed air connected to a compressed air-utilizing device. A source of heated fluid is provided and is connected to a heat exchanger that transfers heat from the heated fluid to the compressed air. The compressed air is heated in the heat exchanger sufficiently that upon decompression the temperature of the device is not lowered to the ambient dew point. The system is particularly applicable to devices utilizing compressed air for the spraying of liquid materials.

Appl. No.:

13/388802

Inventors:

William A. Cline - Romeo MI, US

International Classification:

F25B 21/02

US Classification:

62 364

Abstract:

A temperature control system for dispensing a fluid material from an applicator nozzle at a controlled temperature that includes at least one temperature control fluid conduit at least one fluid material supply conduit and at least one manifold device. The manifold device is in thermal communication with the temperature control fluid conduit and the fluid conduit and may also be in thermal communication with the fluid material supply conduit. At least one thermal adjustment device is in thermal contact with the manifold device. The thermal adjustment device includes at least one thermoelectric device such as at least one peltier circuit. The temperature control system also includes at least one sensor positioned proximate to the applicator nozzle that produces at least one signal actionable on the Peltier circuit device.

Appl. No.:

8/145776

Inventors:

Dave Dunning - Mt. Clemens MI
William Cline - Troy MI

International Classification:

F28F 7106

US Classification:

165 46

Abstract:

A hose assembly suited for delivering viscous material to a dispenser nozzle at a controlled viscosity and temperature. The hose assembly includes a jacketed hose including an outer hose positioned around an inner hose carrying the mastic and defining an annular passage between the inner hose and the outer hose, and a hose cover assembly adapted to be releasably wrapped around a further remote hose carrying the mastic. The cover assembly includes an elongated strip of flexible material including generally parallel opposite longitudinal edges; a plurality of tubes embedded in the strip and running longitudinally through the strip; and coacting interengagable quick release means (such as a zipper) on the opposite longitudinal edges of the strip to enable the strip to be wrapped around the hose and secured in position around the hose by releasable interengagement of the quick release means.

Abstract:

A temperature control system for an adhesive application system in which adhesive is delivered from a pump to a nozzle for application in bead form to a part. The control system includes a hose assembly extending from the pump to the nozzle and including an inner hose for carrying the adhesive and an outer hose defining an annular space between the outer hose and the inner hose for passage of water in a direction opposite to the direction of flow of the adhesive; a water conditioner selectively heating and cooling the water; and a controller receiving a reference signal representing a desired temperature of the adhesive at the nozzle and an actual adhesive temperature signal provided by a temperature sensor sensing the temperature of the adhesive being delivered to the nozzle and operative to compare the signals and generate appropriate signals for control of the water conditioner in a sense to maintain the desired water temperature and thereby the desired adhesive temperature. The hose assembly includes rigid end blocks with the outer hose extending between the end blocks and the inner hose communicating at its opposite ends with central passages in the respective end blocks to allow the delivery of adhesive through one end block, through the inner hose, and through the other end block to the nozzle. The end blocks also include passages communicating with the space between the hoses to allow the delivery of water to the space and the discharge of water from the space.
