Abstract: A vacuum device for a material handling system includes a vacuum device body and a sealing element. The vacuum device body has a vacuum passageway in which H vacuum is generated in response to activation of a pressurized air supply that forces pressurized air through a venturi device. The sealing element moves to a sealing position to substantially seal the vacuum passageway when the air supply is activated, and is urged toward the sealing position via pressurized air that is diverted from an inlet of the vacuum device to the sealing element. The sealing element moves to substantially vent the vacuum passageway when the air supply is deactivated. The vacuum passageway may be in fluid communication with a vacuum cup, which seals against the object when the sealing element is at the sealing position and the vacuum generating device generates at least a partial vacuum in the vacuum passageway.

Abstract: Reduced noise abrasive blasting assemblies and systems are described. The new assemblies and systems are comprised of standard blast hose, accelerator hose, couplings and nozzle.

Abstract: A pressure/vacuum generator is established by coupling the pressure port of a vacuum generator to an air pressure source while coupling a valve in fluid communication with the exhaust port of the vacuum generator. When the valve is in a normally open condition (i.e, the exhaust vented to atmosphere), the vacuum port of the pressure/vacuum generator generates a vacuum. When the valve is closed, thereby closing off the exhaust port, the vacuum port becomes a pressure port. Thus, this pressure/vacuum generator can be used in any number of fluid (liquid and gas) systems (e.g., fluid recovery system, fluid transfer system, etc.)that require both a pressure source and a vacuum source while using a minimum number of components.

Abstract: In an aspirator (10) for pumping air into an inflatable (16), initial delivery of an aspirating fluid extends a piston (68) and the piston (68) extends an aspirator tube (24) to open an ambient air inlet (30) and render the aspirator (10) operable. Aspirating fluid pressure acts on a valve plug (112) and moves it into a first position in which the aspirating fluid pressure is connected to the linear fluid motor (66) for extending the piston (68). When inflation is substantially completed, back pressure from the inflatable (16) acts on a movable wall (74) which is connected to the valve plug (112) to produce a force which overrides the force of the aspirating fluid pressure acting on the valve plug (112). The overriding force moves the valve plug (112) into a second position in which flow of aspirating fluid into the linear motor (66) is blocked and the piston (68) is vented. A spring (48) then retracts the aspirator tube (24 ) closing the ambient air inlet (30), and disabling the aspirator (10).
