Abstract
An apparatus for supplying fluid of preset quantity comprises a fluid supplying pump provided in a fluid supplying pipe arrangement, a motor for driving the fluid supplying pump, meter for metering the fluid flowing in the fluid supplying pipe arrangement, and a control circuit for detecting that supplied quantity of fluid measured by the meter has reached a quantity smaller than a preset fluid supplying quantity by an estimated oversupply quantity of fluid, and stopping the motor from being driven. The estimated oversupply quantity of fluid is set to a quantity equal to a quantity of fluid supplied by the fluid supplying pump after the motor is stopped from being driven and rotates due to inertia.
Claims6
An apparatus for supplying fluid of preset quantity comprising:
- a fluid supplying pump provided in a fluid supplying pipe arrangement;
- a motor for driving said fluid supplying pump;
- metering means for metering the fluid flowing in said fluid supplying pipe arrangement;
- presetting means for presetting a quantity of fluid to be supplied;
- and
- control means coupled to said motor, said metering means, and said presetting means, for detecting that supplied quantity of fluid measured by said metering means has reached a quantity smaller than the preset fluid supplying quantity preset by said presetting means by an estimated oversupply quantity of fluid, and stopping said motor from being driven,
- said estimated oversupply quantity of fluid being a quantity equal to a quantity of fluid supplied by said fluid supplying pump after said motor is stopped from being driven and rotates due to inertia,
- said control means including a first register prestored with a coefficient, and estimating means for estimating said estimated oversupply quantity of fluid from said coefficient stored in said first register.
