| 20110109328 | Flush-Mounted Capacitive Sensor Mount - In some embodiments, a method of monitoring particulates may include one or more of the following steps: (a) receiving the particulates in a particulate flow restrictor, (b) collecting a particulate sample in a body section of the flow restrictor, (c) sensing moisture content of the particulate with a flush mounted capacitive sensor, (d) allowing the particulate to empty out of the flow restrictor through a narrowed opening in a discharge section of the flow restrictor, (e) concentrating the particulate sample at a sensor surface, (f) shielding the sensor from stray electric fields, and (g) inputting the particulate at the funnel opening of the flow restrictor. | 05-12-2011 |
| 20110101997 | Flush-Mounted Capacitive Sensor Mount - In some embodiments, a method of monitoring particulates may include one or more of the following steps: (a) receiving the particulates in a particulate flow channel mounted within a chute or conduit, (b) collecting a particulate sample in a body section of the flow channel, (c) sensing moisture content of the particulate with a flush mounted capacitive sensor, (d) allowing the particulate to empty out of the flow channel through an opening in a discharge section of the flow channel, (e) concentrating the particulate sample at a sensor surface, and (f) shielding the sensor from stray electromagnetic fields. | 05-05-2011 |
