Abstract
An improved condensate pump for use with items that exhibit condensation having an audible alarm and concentrating flange.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat I claim is:
1 . An improved pump comprising:
a pump housing; the pump housing having at least one hole; the pump housing having at least one lip; the pump housing having a first part; the pump housing having a second part; the second part being capable of collecting fluid; at least one level indicator; at least one float; the at least one float being situated in the second part; the at least one float moving as the amount of fluid collecting in the second part increases or decreases; the at least one float, by moving, being capable of actuating the at least one level indicator; the at least one level indicator emitting sound waves upon being actuated by the at least one float; the sound waves passing through the at least one hole; the at least one lip interposing the sound waves.
2 . An improved pump comprising:
a housing; the housing having a hole; the housing having a lip; a reservoir; the reservoir being located within the housing; the reservoir being capable of collecting liquid; a float; the float being located within the reservoir; a rod; the rod being attached to the float; a switch; a level indicator; the switch electrically connected to the level indicator; the switch being capable of actuating the level indicator; the rod being capable of contacting the switch; the level indicator being capable of emitting sound waves upon being actuated by the switch; the sound waves emitted from the level indicator exiting the pump by passing through the hole; the lip being situated sufficiently proximate to the hole whereby the sound waves emitted from the level indicator become concentrated.
3 . An improved pump for removing condensate, the pump comprising:
a housing; the housing capable of containing condensate; a float; the condensate floating the float; an activator; the activator being attached to the float; an audible alarm; a switch; the switch being capable of activating the audible alarm; the activator being capable of causing the switch to activate the audible alarm; an orifice; a flange; the orifice positioned sufficiently adjacent to the audible alarm such that sound waves emitted from the audible alarm pass through the orifice; the flange being attached to the housing; the flange being sufficiently positioned adjacent to the orifice such that the flange is interposing with the sound waves.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
