Abstract: A sprinkler for watering a fixed spray pattern includes a flow conduit having a nozzle coupled thereto. A filter screen is held in place beneath the nozzle. The filter screen engages against a poppet type valve member of a flow shut off valve to space the valve member away from a valve seat to permit water flow through the flow conduit when the filter screen and nozzle are in place. If the nozzle is removed, the filter screen can move far enough upwardly, or can itself also be removed, that the valve member closes to shut off flow through the flow conduit. The flow shut off valve is located at a fixed distance from a reference point in the top of the flow conduit to permit the same sized screen to open the valve regardless of the overall length of the flow conduit. A flush cap used initially on top of the flow conduit in place of the nozzle, i.e.

Abstract: The mounting of a component subjected to pressure from a fluid requires special precautions if the component is made of wear resistant, hard and hence generally brittle material and may be destroyed by locally raised stresses. A fluidic component of this kind, made, for example, of silicon/glass is arranged in an elastomeric shaped component, made, for example, of silicon rubber. The inner contours of the elastomeric shaped component correspond to the outer contours of the fluidic component. The outer contours of the shaped component corresponds to the inner contours of a holder. Due to this “floating mounting” there are no unacceptable local pressure peaks and no deformation of the fluidic component. The device is particularly suitable for mounting a fluidic component made of glass or silicon, or miniature dimensions, subject to high pressure.

Abstract: A dusting gun for removal of dirt and for cleaning purposes, where dirt, dust, oil and other loose or firmly sticking coats are removed with compressed air. The dusting gun comprises an oscillating pressure discharge valve which causes splitting up of the air flow into periodically repeated pressure discharges. The oscillating valve acts automatically under the influence of the static and dynamic pressures of the compressed air and is designed to oscillate with a frequency in the range of 2-50 Hz. The oscillating valve is connected to a nozzle by an elongated air duct.

Abstract: The container is adapted to be releasably secured to a rotatable turntable. It has a pie-shaped cross section, with a recess in the bottom to receive a projection to hold it in place on the turntable.
