  • Publication number: 20090325430
    Abstract: The device includes conveying ducts of the fluid (2, 9), a tubular mean (1) with variable internal volume (1?), a tapered onion-shaped body (17) centred (18) inside the tubular mean, a nozzle (16) for the ejection of the fluid adjustable in position and opening for the variation of said internal volume (11), one or more gas injectors (21), and means to change the direction of the jet (6). In this way a fluid with variable characteristics can be obtained which allows the adjustment of the intensity, flow, direction and slant of the jet (6), moreover releasable also above the water surface (10), in view of the optimisation of the increased performances and consumption reduction. Unlike the devices of the known technique suitable only to convey the fluid and give the flow a single direction, the jet (6) is not diverted by other members, but is oriented through the joint (8) which allows its displacement in all the directions, in fact thanks to this said jet (6) can be directed without damping.

  • Publication number: 20080253902
    Abstract: A fluidic kinetic energy recovery device, over which a moving body travels, and which has a pumping assembly, in turn having a cavity and a membrane defining a variable-volume chamber with the cavity. The fluidic device has a first plate defining the cavity; a second plate connected to the first plate and defining a seat located on the opposite side of the membrane to the cavity; and an actuating member housed in the seat to cooperate with the membrane, and movable between a rest position, in which the volume of the chamber is maximum, and a work position, in which the volume of the chamber is minimum.
