GASCILATOR

摘要

Gas cylinders form the very basic need of every house hold. From dawn to dusk the cylinders keep lighting up burner for some reason or other. How so ever there is no indication that when the cylinder would be empty. People work only on an estimation referring to day to day use about the time span that would be needed for the cylinder to turn dry. Sometimes gas turns dry during the peak hours of usage . LPG cylinders are distributed to nearly 14 crore (140 million) households in India yearly. Not many can afford more than one connection at a time. The present invention solves this grooving problem with the help of indicator system that informs the user of the exact quantity of gas that is left in the cylinder. This gives user a prior intimation so that the arrangements can be made accordingly for the new cylinder. This can be especially helpful in rural areas where the delivery is not very speedy or efficient. More over the present invention discourages people from buying cylinders from black market in a period of urgency. Further the invention can be modified in such a way that the cylinder is directly issued when the current cylinder is on the verge of getting empty. Thus reducing peoples efforts .Furthermore the deivce can be improvised to level of being capable even to detect the leakage in gas tubes thus averting any possible damage that could be caused. The invention consists of a strong body made of alloys that can support cylinders weight. The body consists of weighing machine which weighs mass of the gas . The software in the machine is programmed in such a way that it takes note of the mass of the gas cylinder as the gas is used up. The mass is noted when the very first time the full gas cylinder is placed on the machine. The machine has a predefined programme inbuilt that has the weights mentioned of half empty cylinder and 80% empty cylinder. It blows blue light when the cylinder mass value equals 50% that is already been fed in to the cylinder. This goes as first indication. Then the cylinder has got a red indicator buzzer that beeps and alerts when the mass is 20 % left . The communicator installed along with the system provides a facility to book the refill automatically. As the gas level reaches 20% , the software programme alerts the communicator device that sends activation code which as predefined details about the user installed in it to the gas agency and there by the refill can be booked.
