TANK CONNECTABLE TO LIQUID CONTAINER, AND LIQUID SUPPLYING SYSTEM INCLUDING TANK AND LIQUID CONTAINER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18596759 titled 'TANK CONNECTABLE TO LIQUID CONTAINER, AND LIQUID SUPPLYING SYSTEM INCLUDING TANK AND LIQUID CONTAINER
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a tank with a slider mechanism for connecting liquid containers, allowing for easy and secure transfer of liquids.
- The tank body has a storage chamber and a recessed portion.
- A slider in the recessed portion has a fitting portion for connecting liquid containers.
- A sealing member ensures a liquid-tight seal between the slider and the tank body.
- The slider can move towards and away from the connection opening while rotating.
- The slider has a nozzle with a communication opening for liquid flow.
- The sealing member allows liquid flow between the communication opening and the injection opening.
Key Features and Innovation: - Slider mechanism for connecting liquid containers - Rotating and moving slider for easy access - Sealing member for liquid-tight seal - Nozzle with communication opening for liquid flow
Potential Applications: The technology can be used in industrial tanks, fuel storage tanks, chemical storage tanks, and agricultural equipment.
Problems Solved: The technology solves the problem of secure and efficient liquid transfer between containers in a tank.
Benefits: - Easy and secure connection of liquid containers - Efficient liquid transfer process - Reduced risk of spills and leaks
Commercial Applications: The technology can be applied in industries such as agriculture, manufacturing, chemical processing, and transportation for safe and efficient liquid storage and transfer.
Questions about Tank Slider Mechanism: 1. How does the slider mechanism improve liquid transfer in tanks? 2. What industries can benefit most from this innovative tank technology?
Frequently Updated Research: Ongoing research focuses on optimizing the slider mechanism for different types of liquids and containers to enhance efficiency and safety.
Original Abstract Submitted
A tank includes: a tank body defining a storage chamber; a recessed portion provided at the tank body; a slider positioned in the recessed portion; a fitting portion provided at the slider; and a sealing member. The recessed portion has an injection opening in communication with the storage chamber, and a connection opening through which a liquid container is connectable. The slider includes a nozzle extending toward the connection opening in an extending direction and having a communication opening communicable with the injection opening. The slider is movable toward and away from the connection opening in the extending direction while rotating relative to the recessed portion. The fitting portion can be fitted with the liquid container. The sealing member can provide a liquid tight sealing to a gap between the slider and the recessed portion, and allow liquid flow between the communication opening and the injection opening.
