FLUID SUPPLY APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240049684 titled 'FLUID SUPPLY APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a fluid supply apparatus that can store fluid efficiently without the need for a power supply source. The apparatus includes two balloons made of elastic material, with the second balloon having a larger contraction force than the first balloon. A support member holds both balloons and a casing houses them, defining inflation ranges for each balloon. The support member also has a flow path that allows fluid communication between the interiors of the two balloons.

  • The apparatus consists of two elastic balloons, a support member, and a casing.
  • The first balloon and the second balloon are capable of storing fluid.
  • The second balloon has a larger contraction force than the first balloon.
  • The support member holds both balloons and allows fluid communication between them.
  • The casing houses the balloons and defines their inflation ranges.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Medical devices: The apparatus could be used in medical devices that require fluid supply, such as drug delivery systems or infusion pumps.
  • Automotive industry: The technology could be applied in automotive systems that require fluid storage, such as fuel tanks or hydraulic systems.
  • Aerospace industry: The apparatus could be used in aerospace applications where efficient fluid storage is needed, such as in spacecraft or aircraft fuel systems.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Eliminates the need for a power supply source: The apparatus can store fluid without requiring external power, making it suitable for situations where power sources are limited or unavailable.
  • Efficient fluid storage: The use of elastic balloons and the support member allows for efficient storage of fluid, maximizing the amount of fluid that can be stored in a given space.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Cost-effective: The apparatus does not require a power supply source, reducing the cost of operation and maintenance.
  • Versatile: The technology can be applied in various industries and applications that require fluid storage.
  • Space-saving: The efficient fluid storage design allows for compact and space-saving solutions.


Original Abstract Submitted

a fluid supply apparatus that can eliminate the need for a power supply source, and store fluid efficiently. the apparatus may comprise a first balloon that is formed of an elastic body to be capable of storing the fluid, a second balloon that is formed of an elastic body to be capable of storing the fluid, and has a larger contraction force than a contraction force of the first balloon, a support member that supports both of the first balloon and the second balloon, and a casing that houses the first balloon and the second balloon, and defines inflation ranges of the first balloon and the second balloon, in which the support member has a flow path formed to permit fluid communication between an interior of the first balloon and an interior of the second balloon.
