PROBE BLOCKAGE DETECTION AND REMOVAL - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240053379 titled 'PROBE BLOCKAGE DETECTION AND REMOVAL
Simplified Explanation
The system described in the patent application includes a body with a cavity, a sensor for measuring fluid pressure within the cavity, a pressurized fluid source, and a blockage detection module.
- The body has a cavity that is open to the ambient environment at a port.
- The sensor communicates with the cavity to produce a signal representing the fluid pressure within it.
- The blockage detection module consists of a pressure regulator and a valve along a conduit connecting the pressurized fluid source to the cavity.
- The blockage detection module also includes a processor and memory with instructions for a blockage detection method.
Potential Applications:
- Industrial fluid systems
- Medical devices
- Automotive systems
Problems Solved:
- Detecting blockages in fluid systems
- Preventing damage or malfunction due to blockages
Benefits:
- Early detection of blockages
- Improved system reliability
- Reduced maintenance costs
Original Abstract Submitted
a system includes a body, a sensor, a pressurized fluid source, and a blockage detection module. the body defines a cavity open to an ambient environment at a port. the sensor communicates with the cavity to produce a signal representative of a fluid pressure within the cavity. the blockage detection module includes a pressure regulator and a valve disposed along a conduit fluidly connecting the pressurized fluid source to the cavity. the blockage detection module includes a processor and memory encoded with instructions of a blockage detection method.
