| 20110194904 | Controlled Inlet of Compressor for Pneumatic Conveying System - A compressor airflow controller is operable to control airflow through a centrifugal compressor. The controller drives the centrifugal compressor and determines if a flow irregularity (e.g., an error in gas flow velocity) has occurred. If a flow irregularity is determined, the controller reduces the irregularity by adjusting compressor operation to thereby change the compressed gas flow. | 08-11-2011 |
| 20100329898 | COMPRESSOR INLET GUIDE VANE CONTROL - A compressor airflow control assembly is operable to control airflow through a centrifugal compressor. The control assembly includes an air valve mounted in the airflow path to control airflow through the compressor. The control assembly also includes a controller operable to sense an airflow condition and control shifting of the air valve. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20100135771 | CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSOR WITH IMPROVED LUBRICATION SYSTEM FOR GEAR-TYPE TRANSMISSION - A centrifugal supercharger includes a case presenting a compressor chamber and a transmission chamber. An impeller in the compressor chamber is mounted to a shaft that extends into the transmission chamber. The impeller shaft is drivingly connected to a power input shaft by intermeshing gears provided on the shafts. A portion of the transmission chamber defines a fluid reservoir in which lubrication fluid is held. The intermeshing gears, as well as the bearing assemblies supporting the shafts, are located outside the fluid reservoir portion of the transmission chamber. A rotatable fluid-propelling element partly submerged in the lubrication fluid contained within the reservoir portion ensures that sufficient but not excessive lubrication fluid is supplied to the intermeshing gears and the bearing assemblies. A dedicated lubricant reserve system ensures that the required operating level of fluid is provided to, and maintained in, the reservoir portion. | 06-03-2010 |
