Question; Would Inline Auto Siphons be better than today's auto-siphons?
I am or was not trying to invent anything, but I don't recall ever seeing an Inline Auto Siphon (for sale for brewing). I thought of this probably weeks ago, only because auto siphons today are limited in their scope, or myopic in many regards, &/or I cannot pump auto siphon deeper than it goes, like if its deep (primary or secondary fermenter) containers & you have a mini auto siphon (like I have), you would not be able to reach the bottom with that (if it's too deep, etc.) etc.. And, I know that all brewers could benefit by only needing one Inline Auto Siphon to transfer liquids from virtually any container to the next. Actually, I know that a normal tubing hose could work, but I don't feel comfortable putting a dirty mouth on what should be sterile. And if you are racking, you might need to keep priming the siphon if the liquid goes below the input of that tube, like I have needed to tip it over after it runs out of liquid being high enough to work. And, with this novel- to- me notion, if you had a long enough tube, you could auto siphon a container that is 10 feet deep or more, to give an example. And, it would be as easy as maybe pumping a turkey baster- like little rubber ball, & checkvalves. Or if you needed to occilate a little piston back & forth (like many today that are not inline, but at the beginning of the input), that would work, or even a little wheel to spin with a handle, etc., I guess there are many ways to accomplish the same effects, right? And it's not like I care if I capitalize off this, I am content being blessed from the Blessed, but if I could help many, that would be a priceless reward. . .*
Actually, there could be little electric pumps that would quicken the process, but an engineering teacher (Mr. Turback) would tell students, KISS, or Keep It Simple Stupid, heh, no pun intended. Actually, if there were little bottle rackers, like today have spring activated racking devices, the electric pump could turn off when it senses the liquid flow stop. And also, checkvalves would probably be good for the Inline Auto Siphon, either right in front or behind the input & output of said Inline Auto Siphon, or both. That would keep constant pressures, & nothing could empty back into the original container being siphoned from, yes? And, I know that if there was a squishy turkey baster- like pump, because of the checkvalve or checkvalves, it would not need any other equipment besides a little squishy ball, I assume & imagine. Like how a lawnmower has little squishy priming buttons, I have seen, except these for brewing would be any size that worked good, to speculate. Actually, I am sure that anyone could put a little dowel or rod at the end of their tube, to keep it off the trub, & it could be adjusted per needs. Maybe spring action either inside or outside the tube itself? Like you could push it down an extra maybe 1 inch or so when towards the bottom, or fully control the various spring action & whatnot? Actually, I know that all would be really needed is the Inline Auto Siphon, if you already have the tubing or want other tubing, because you probably have tubing already, I assume. And there should be an easy way to adjust between different gauge sizes of tubing, like maybe over 1 inch that could go down to any smaller size, per included fittings or attachments, no? Or even like a chuck device like many drills have that could be turned to expand & contract to what size is needed, & no additional fittings would be needed if it could adapt to the size tubing you are using, etc, yes? This would be more universally better for the (home) brewers, they could have this & not need anything extra besides tubing, or tubing could be included if wanted. Actually, many people could build this themself, if they have a squishy ball (like a tennis ball, for example) or rubber bladder, & check valve(s), but a ballon or thin rubber would not work if it couldn't spring back to size, but any foodgrade waterproof material could work if it had spring or springs inside & would not tare or rip. . .*
I don't know, I'm with Stupid, so please disregard ignorance that is innate by the Simple & Lame, deaf dumb blind & nude person I am. Actually, I would like to buy one of these Inline Auto Siphons for Stupid, I am lazy & wouldn't want to tinker with something that would be a Mickey Mouse job / device that could rupture, etc.. Lastly, the forest dump is overflowing with milk and honey, but I might be too perpetually drunk to realize or see anything with lucidity or clarity, etc.. My momma always told Me, Stupid is as Stupid does, etc.. . .*
P.S., I began writing this about 3 p.m., Easter Time, on 6- 20- 2017, or Tuesday June 20th. But I have to wait until they allow me on these forums for Hims or Hymns or Hums, hmmm, huh?. . .*

Cheers & Please give peace a chance.*
