DrinkMate's Small Alcohol Detection for Android Devices

DrinkMate is a tiny, plug-in-alcohol device for Android devices that can be plugged into smart phones, and smart devices that add phone functionality through built-in sensors are constantly pouring into the market, many of which are supported by crowdfunding methods. Now another competitor in this field, the BlowMate Inflatable Alcohol Tester, wants to extend the capabilities of Android smartphones and is currently raising funds on the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter with a target of US$40,000. It is expected that the product will Into the market in December.
The 1.8-inch long device can be plugged into the phone's micro-USB port for use with a matching application. When the user blows into it, the semiconductor-based sensor displays the blood alcohol content (BAC) rating on the screen. DrinkMate does not require a mouthpiece. The user only needs to blow air into the air intake. This design helps to ensure the compact structure of the product and the hygiene of the equipment.
We've seen blew breath alcohol detectors for smartphones before, such as the larger Alcohoot that we reported last year for iPhones. However, DrinkMate is a lot smaller and much cheaper, which is the track following Moore's Law.
DrinkMate also claims to have higher accuracy, with a measurement accuracy of ±0.01% when the BAC level is 0.02%. Obviously this feature is the key to this device, but after all this is just a prototype, so this statement remains to be tested. DrinkMate's sensors have a maximum measurable blood alcohol concentration of 0.20%, but if you're already drunk to that extent, you're less likely to be conscious about using this gadget, let alone find your car key.
In addition to the level of precision, in real life, there are a wide variety of drinks, and users may not follow the best inspection process. It remains to be seen how DrinkMate will perform well in an unpredictable, real-world environment. Maybe in the future, a matching application will be needed to avoid misleading readings. This application can track potential user errors, such as ensuring that they wait long enough for alcohol testing after the last drink to avoid inaccurate Rating (concentration is based on mouth alcohol).
The makers of DrinkMate in Washington, DC, said that the basic idea behind the device is to generate a visible, sharable BAC review to create more peer pressure among drinkers so that they can guarantee each other’s Safety. This is a commendable goal, but there is also the risk of encouraging the opposite behavior - so the tone of the application is very important. The design of current applications is very simple, but producers say they will add more features every week.

Dumper Tipper and Lifter

Bine and Cart Lifter
Bine and Cart Lifter has the obvious advantages of large conveying capacity, high lifting height, stable and reliable operation, and long life. It is suitable for the lifting and loading of food, medicine, chemical industrial products, screws, nuts and other products. The automatic stop and start of the machine can be controlled by the signal recognition of the packaging machine. Since the traction mechanism of the hoist is a circular chain, it is allowed to transport materials with higher temperature (the material temperature does not exceed 250 ℃). Bine and Cart Lifter is suitable for lifting from low to high. The supplied materials are automatically and continuously operated and transported upwards through the lifting hopper.

Inclined Chain plate Lifter


Inclined Chain plate Lifter is composed of power unit (motor), drive shaft, roller, tensioning device, sprocket, chain, bearing, lubricant, chain plate, etc. Among them, the main two parts that promote the transportation of materials are: the chain, which uses its cyclic reciprocating motion to provide traction power; and the metal plate, as the carrier in the transportation process. The principle is to use a series of chains fixed on the traction chain to provide traction, and use a metal plate as a carrier to guide the material to be transported in an inclined direction. Inclined Chain plate Lifters are widely used in various industries, such as electric power, metallurgy, wine making, chemical, medical, machinery manufacturing and other broad fields. In order to meet the various needs of the production site, we can design the conveying machines in the automation line to achieve the requirements and goals.


Inclined Screw Lifter

The stainless steel Screw Conveyor hoist is mainly used for conveying and lifting various powdery, granular and small lumps and other loose materials. This machine is not suitable for conveying special materials that are easy to deteriorate, high viscosity, easy to agglomerate, or high temperature and pressure. Stainless steel screw conveyor models can be divided into tubular screw conveyor, U-shaped screw conveyor, vertical screw conveyor, shaftless screw conveyor and so on.


Hydraulic elevator and Hoist

Hydraulic elevator and hoist is a kind of equipment that uses hydraulic power to lift materials. It can be a bucket lifting device, a hydraulic lifting device, or a swing arm lifting device. The hydraulic lifting system is more flexible and has a high safety factor. The motor drives the oil pump to rotate. The pump draws oil from the oil tank and converts the mechanical energy into the pressure energy of the hydraulic oil. The hydraulic oil realizes the direction, pressure and flow adjustment through the valve combination, and controls the change of the direction of the hydraulic motor, the size of the force and the speed , Promote the lifting device to do work.
