338 results about "Explosion hazard" patented technology

An explosion is a sudden and rapid increase in volume and release of energy in an extreme manner. This is usually accompanied by the generation of high temperatures and release of gases caused by changes in pressure, temperature and phase. In mining, explosives are the most obvious form of explosion hazard.

Fiber optic strain sensor and associated data acquisition system

A fiber optic polarimetric strain sensor and associated data acquisition system capable of all-optical measurements of physical parameters, such as structural strain, gas and liquid pressure, acceleration and vibration, gas and liquid flow rate, and force without fire and explosion hazards associated with conventional strain gage technologies, such as resistance foil strain gages. The polarimetric strain sensor houses a sensitive element—a length of single mode optic fiber—changing polarization of a single-mode optical signal running in the fiber under some mechanical affects, specifically twisting and radial compressing. A linearly-polarized light passes the sensor, which causes polarization deviation of the light, particularly, polarization plane rotation under mentioned above twisting or compressive stresses applied to a sensitive element of the sensor. A multi-channel time division multiplexing data acquisition system that includes polarization analyzer indicates the polarization state deviation caused by the strain, so allow measuring the parameters. The invention may be embodied for measurements of any phenomenon that can be transformed in stress on an optical fiber.

Toxic gas removal and air conditioning system for human life support in enclosed refuge spaces

An intrinsically safe, self-contained toxic gas removal and air conditioning system for use in an underground mine environment to continuously remove from air sealed in the chamber the CO2 and / or CO from exhalations of up to thirty adult occupants. The system includes an explosion-proof / fire-proof shell strong enough to withstand a 15 psi explosion outside the survival chamber in which the air-scrubbing system is installed. In the event of normal power loss, the system runs on an internal battery capable of 96+ hours of continuous operation while incapable of creating an explosion hazard. A fan motor mounted inside the external shell is driven by a fan driver circuit and is coupled to a driveshaft extending outside the external shell to drive an air scrubber fan. A fan driver / controller circuit powers the fan and detects the loss of externally-provided AC power to automatically start operation when such power loss is detected.

Here, amplitude of a single-mode light passing the gage experiences variation under this specific mechanical bending applied to the sensitive element of the gage. A multi-channel time-division multiplexing data collecting system that includes another object of this invention—a single-mode fiber-optic switch. The invention may be embodied to measure any phenomenon that can be converted into the bending of a single-mode optical fiber.

Accident pressure relief system for automobile gaseous fuel tank

A modified compressed gas cylinder for use in hydrogen powered vehicles which lessens the explosive danger from accidental collisions by using an electronic signal from the airbag system to open a normally closed pressure relief valve. The released hydrogen gas releases through a vent pipe which exits either through the fill pipe area or through a vent in the top of the automobile. A whistle on the vent pipe informs drivers, passengers and bystanders if the pressure relief valve is allowing the escape of hydrogen gas. A mechanical lever maintains the open position of the pressure relief valve once the airbag signal is received until the driver triggers a mechanical latch similar to a trunk release which returns the pressure relief valve to its normally closed position. The pressure relief valve can also open if for some reason the internal pressure of the hydrogen storage tank exceeds the appropriate safety level due to excess density and or temperature rise.
