Abstract
An in-line gas liquid infusion smart system, featuring a controller having a signal processer configured to receive signaling containing information about parameters or settings related to dispensing a non-infused liquid and a gas-infused mixture of gas and liquid from a dispense point; and determine corresponding signaling containing information to dispense the non-infused liquid and the gas-infused mixture from the dispense point, and also containing further information about the parameters or settings for providing to a remote controller for controlling, monitoring or troubleshooting the in-line gas liquid infusion smart system, based upon the signaling received.
Claims6
An in-line gas liquid infusion smart system, comprising:
- components configured to respond to control signaling and provide a gas-infused mixture from a dispense point having a non-infused liquid and a mixture of gas and liquid;
- a controller having a signal processer configured to
- receive signaling containing information about parameters or settings related to controlling the components in the in-line gas liquid infusion smart system and dispensing the gas-infused mixture from the dispense point, and also receive remote controller signaling containing information about changing one or more of the parameters or settings related to the operation of the components in the in-line gas liquid infusion smart system, the parameters or settings including gas-liquid infusion settings, pump operating parameters, dispense information and system parameters, and
- provide the control signaling, and also provide controller data communication signaling containing information about the parameters or settings related to the dispensing of the gas-infused mixture from the dispense point for controlling, monitoring and troubleshooting the in-line gas liquid infusion smart system remotely, based upon the signaling and the remote controller signaling received;
- and
- a remote controller configured to
- receive the controller data communication signaling, and
- provide the remote controller signaling containing the information to change the one or more of the parameters or settings related to the operation of the components in the in-line gas liquid infusion smart system;
- the controller being is configured to exchange the controller data communication signaling and the remote controller signaling with the remote controller through a local network gateway to a cloud server;
- and
- the remote controller configured to
- determine business analysis data signaling containing information about business analysis data, including information about:
- product consumption information,
- power consumption information,
- peak demand time information,
- inventory management information, and
- determine technical trouble shooting data signaling containing information about technical trouble shooting data for controlling the in-line gas liquid infusion smart system, including:
- Pump behaviors and life expectancy,
- Changes in system operating parameters, and
- Sequences of last modes of operations.
