  • Publication number: 20070166179
    Abstract: A cleaning system has a high velocity fan held within an air-directing casing movably mounted between the lower ends of an inverted U-shaped yoke. The blade configuration of the fan assures that air is directed outwardly in a narrow beam. The system rotates about a vertical extendable support tube and the casing and fan oscillate about a horizontal axis through a vertical angle which can extend from horizontal to near-vertical in the upper and lower direction. A crank arm connects to the U-shaped yoke and to one end of a crank rod which connects to the fan casing. Rotation of the crank arm displaces the crank rod so that the casing and fan oscillate about the horizontal axis. The crank arm is adjustable in length by spaced apart holes. The length of the crank rod is adjustable by using a two piece crank rod with the free end of each crank rod piece being adjustably secured to a connecting rod. The newly designed crank rod having additional spaced apart holes provides additional adjustability features.

  • Publication number: 20070151013
    Abstract: A bidet toilet attachment is connected to the main water line in the bathroom at a valve. The valve is connected on one side to a water flow handle and on the other side to a bidet hoop conduit. The hoop conduit carries water from the main water line when the valve is actuated and is movable from a first position flat under the seat to a second position below the seat opening. The hoop conduit has a nozzle near the middle of the toilet and extends to the other side of the toilet seat where it ends as a lever for moving the hoop conduit between its two positions. The handle is fixed so that when the hoop conduit moves with respect to the handle, the valve moves with respect to the handle and water flows through the valve, into the hoop conduit and out the nozzle for cleansing.

  • Patent number: 4936086
    Abstract: Apparatus for use with a traveling cleaner for textile machines, particularly ring spinners, operable to strip yarn ends from the whirls of the spindles for the bobbins of the ring spinner apparatus. A whirl cleaner blade is pivoted to the frame of the ring spinner adjacent each spindle so that its free blade end may be displaced into engagement with the whirl of the spindle by a jet of compressed air impinged against the blade. The compressed air is supplied by a nozzle suspended from the carriage of the pneumatic cleaner to impinge against the blade. The compressed air is fed from a central junction box under the track for the carriage through the energy chain which houses the power supply cables for the carriage. From the carriage, the compressed air is piped to the nozzle positioned at the level of the spindle whirls.
