  • Patent number: 12343751
    Abstract: A method for the function control of an electrohydrodynamic atomizer, wherein an electrohydrodynamically atomized fluid, originating from the atomizer, is applied to a body, e.g. a person, in order to coat this body at least in certain areas, wherein the atomizer-comprises a fluid tank for storing the fluid and at least one high voltage source for making available a high voltage and at least one pump unit for transporting the fluid, wherein the fluid is delivered to a nozzle arrangement of the atomizer by means of the pump unit, and wherein the fluid is atomized electrohydrodynamically at the nozzle arrangement by means of the effect of the high voltage from the high voltage source, wherein a voltage and/or a current at the high voltage source is evaluated in order to acquire a working point of the high voltage source via a current/voltage characteristic curve.

  • Patent number: 12330193
    Abstract: A power washing assembly includes a spray bar that has a fluid inlet and a plurality of spray nozzles. The fluid inlet is fluidly attachable to a fluid source to direct a fluid from the fluid source into the spray bar. Each of the spray nozzles is in fluid communication with the fluid inlet to spray the fluid. A handle is coupled to the spray bar thereby facilitating the spray bar to be steered along the support surface to clean the support surface. A leg is coupled to and angles downwardly from the handle and a roller is rotatably coupled to the leg to roll along the support surface. A hook is coupled to the handle and the hook curves upwardly from the handle thereby facilitating the hook to hold a fluid hose that is fluidly coupled to the fluid source.

  • Patent number: 12285007
    Abstract: An intelligent air-assisted spraying device for orchards includes a traction mechanism, a spaying system, a collecting system, and a processing-controlling system. The traction mechanism is provided with a spray tank. The spaying system includes a main body connected to the spray tank and multiple spraying tubes, first ends of the spraying tube are communicated with the main body, and second ends of the spraying tubes are capable of rotating. The collecting system is configured to collect a contour and a volume of the canopy, and branch and leaf density of a fruit tree. The processing-controlling system is configured to obtain multiple spraying areas, calculate an air outlet angle of each spraying tube, and control a rotation of the second end of each spraying tube according to the air outlet angle. The device can adjust the spraying direction of each spraying tube, and the quality of pesticide application can be improved.

  • Patent number: 12233430
    Abstract: A mounting configuration for an electrostatic spray gun (100) includes a probe having a first non-conductive body encasing a first conductive element and a probe mount extending from the electrostatic spray gun with a second non-conductive body encasing a second conductive element. The mounting configuration includes a first elastomeric ring (140) disposed about the second non-conductive body and configured to interface with the first non-conductive body. The first elastomeric ring (140) is configured to exert a force on the first non-conductive body to bias the first non-conductive body away from the electrostatic spray gun (100) such that the probe is secured in a home position. A pin (128) extending from one of the first non-conductive body and the second non-conductive body is seated in a notch (138) formed in the other one of the first non-conductive body and the second non-conductive body.
