Fill system and method including visual indicator device for empty condition

A fill system is configured to supply particulate adhesive such as pellets to an adhesive dispensing system and is configured to provide a visual indication when a supply container approaches an empty condition. The fill system includes the supply container, which has an interior space for holding pellets, and an indicator device that emits a visual indication by actuating a light source communicating with the interior space. As a result, when the level of pellets within the interior space drops to a threshold approaching the empty condition, the light energy emitted by the indicator device is visible outside the supply container. The fill system may then be refilled before the completely empty condition is reached.

Non-contact electrical power transmission system

A non-contact electrical power transmission system is capable of providing a large supply current of uniform level at an optimum transmission efficiency. The system includes a power circuit including a power supply of providing a high frequency voltage across a power winding, and a load circuit for energizing a load. The load circuit is composed of a secondary winding, a matching capacitor, a rectifier, and a choke coil. The secondary winding is magnetically coupled to the power winding so as to generate an induced high frequency voltage and to provide a leakage inductance to the load circuit. The matching capacitor is connected across the secondary winding to be cooperative with the leakage inductance and with the secondary winding to form an oscillatory circuit which provides an oscillating voltage across the matching capacitor for generating a supply current being fed through the rectifier and the choke coil to the load. The matching capacitor is selected to have a specific capacitance such that the oscillating voltage reaches its extreme each time the inducted high frequency voltage reverses its polarity. The choke coil is connected in circuit to smoothen the supply current. Thus, the supply current of uniform level can be fed to the load, reducing a possibility of incurring a noise on the supply current, yet minimizing an impedance between the supply circuit and the load circuit for realizing an optimum efficiency of converting the high frequency voltage into the supply current.
