  • Patent number: 4372352
    Abstract: In a foam dispensing head for discharging foam in a low pressure system there is provided at least first and second orifice rods rotatably insertable within receiving bores cooperative respectively with adjacent first and second mix component infeed ports, each rod having a plurality of predetermined sized orifices therein through which the mix components flow under pressure to a mixing chamber in impinging fashion to selectively permit the desired flow rate of mix components to be maintained into the mixing chamber so as to insure proper admixing of the foam at selected predetermined flow rates.

  • Patent number: 4158535
    Abstract: An improvement in the generation of foam from a mixture of foam-forming material in a structure having a preferred configuration. Conveying means are used to convey the structure along a horizontal path. A plurality of foam gun heads are mounted in spaced relationship to each other over and transverse to said horizontal path. Each foam gun head includes a foam dispensing outlet and valve means for controlling the discharges of the foam-forming materials therefrom. First, sensing means are provided upstream of the foam dispensing outlets for sensing the passage of the structure thereby. A plurality of second sensing means are positioned upstream of the foam dispensing outlets in spaced relationship to each other in a direction transverse to the horizontal path, each one of the second sensing means being associated with one foam gun head for sensing the presence of the structure in a vertical direction.
