Method for delivering liquid with a container delivery system

A delivery system of delivering a liquid from a container into an accumulator, the system comprising:

• the container for delivering the liquid into the accumulator;
• the accumulator for receiving the liquid from the container;
• a first sensor to determine a first pre-defined specification of the accumulator;
• a first delivery mechanism for loading the container into a container carrier;
• a second delivery mechanism for delivering the liquid in the container into the accumulator;
• a release mechanism for releasing the container carrier of the delivery system;
• and
• a locking mechanism for securing the container in the delivery system.

An opening mechanism in a liquid delivery system comprising a sealed container holding liquid and an accumulator for receiving the liquid from the container, the opening mechanism comprising:

• a first puncturing device positioned for puncturing a seal on the container and creating a first opening as the container is loaded into the liquid delivery system;
• a second puncturing device positioned proximate to the first puncturing device for puncturing a seal on the container and creating a second opening as the container is loaded into the liquid delivery system;
• and
• a separating mechanism connected between the first puncturing device and the second puncturing device for cutting a slit between the first opening and the second opening and widening the slit as the container is loaded into the liquid delivery system.

A method for opening a seal on a container holding a liquid for delivering into an accumulator, the method comprising:

• loading the container into a container delivery system;
• closing the container delivery system;
• creating a first opening in the seal by puncturing the seal on the container when the container delivery system is closed;
• creating a second opening in the seal by puncturing the seal on the container when the container delivery system is closed;
• cutting a slit between the first opening and the second opening when the container delivery system is closed;
• and
• widening the slit when the container delivery system is closed.

A method of delivering a liquid from an accumulator into a vaporizer via a metering tube, the method comprising:

• evacuating the vaporizer;
• evacuating the metering tube;
• delivering the liquid from the accumulator into the metering tube at a first flow rate;
• and
• delivering the liquid from the metering tube into the vaporizer at a second flow rate, wherein the second flow rate is slower than the first flow rate.

A system of delivering a liquid from an accumulator into a vaporizer via a metering tube, the system comprising:

• the accumulator for delivering the liquid to the metering tube;
• the metering tube for receiving the liquid from the accumulator and delivering the liquid to the vaporizer;
• the vaporizer for receiving a metered volume of the liquid from the metering tube;
• a plurality of valves which control the direction and flow of the fluid in the system;
• a first delivery mechanism for delivering the liquid from the accumulator to the metering tube at a first flow rate;
• and
• a second delivery mechanism for delivering the liquid from the metering tube to the vaporizer at a second flow rate, wherein the second flow rate is slower than the first flow rate.
