Abstract

See full text

A mechanism for dispensing fluids to a manufacturing process includes a vented fluid reservoir, a pressure chamber, and a pump in fluid communication with the vented fluid reservoir and the pressure chamber for pumping fluid from the vented fluid reservoir to one end of the pressure chamber. The mechanism also includes an air compressor for supplying air under pressure to an opposite end of the pressure chamber, a fluid level sensor responsive to the level of fluid in the pressure chamber, and a controller connected to the fluid level sensor and to the pump. The mechanism also includes a pressure chamber outlet, and a fluid dispensing component. The fluid dispensing component includes a first venturi at an inlet into a supply chamber, a second venturi at an outlet from the supply chamber, and an electrically controlled valve in fluid communication with the second venturi.
