Patent number: 7497387Abstract: A system for spraying and a method for making same. The system for spraying may comprises a sprayer having a sprayer body comprising a spray fluid passageway extending longitudinally through the sprayer body. The sprayer may also have a spray fluid inlet fitting to enable a hose operable to convey a spray fluid to be coupled to the sprayer body. In addition, the sprayer may also have a first air fitting to enable a first hose operable to convey pressurized air to be coupled to the sprayer body to trigger the sprayer to spray the spray fluid. The sprayer may have a second air fitting to enable a second hose operable to convey pressurized be coupled to the sprayer body to atomize the spray fluid. The spray fluid inlet fitting, the first air fitting, and the second air fitting are angled at an acute angle relative to the spray fluid passageway extending longitudinally through the sprayer body.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2004Date of Patent: March 3, 2009Assignee: Illinois Tool Works Inc.Inventor: Christopher L.

Patent number: 6827296Abstract: The invention relates to a method an apparatus for atomizing liquids. In particular, the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for atomizing heavy hydrocarbon fuels such as diesel, as part of a fuel reforming process. During normal operating conditions the fuel is atomized by a high pressure fluid. Under start-up conditions when only a low pressure gas is available the fuel films across part of the nozzle and is subsequently atomized by a radially directed low pressure dispersion gas.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2003Date of Patent: December 7, 2004Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the United States Department of EnergyInventors: Vincent J.

Patent number: 6663016Abstract: A melter, mixer and applicator system for applying coating or sealing compositions is disclosed. A diesel engine provides the motive force necessary to operate many of the components of the system. A tank surrounded by an internal heating system is provided for melting a first material. An insulated cabinet is provided and heated from heat generated by the internal heating system. The plumbing configuration is disposed within the heated cabinet for mixing the material heated within the tank with an additional material fed to the plumbing configuration by a proportioner pump. The output of this mixture serves as one of the inputs to the applicator. The other input to the applicator is another material fed directly from the proportioner pump. The proportioner, preferably provides the two materials running through it in a predetermined ratio amount with respect to each other.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2001Date of Patent: December 16, 2003Assignee: Urecoats Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Frank C.

Patent number: 6588230Abstract: Burners (40) for producing fused silica boules are provided. The burners employ a tube-in-tube (301-306) design with flats (56, 50) on some of the tubes (305, 301) being used to limit the cross-sectional area of certain passages (206, 202) within the burner and/or to atomize a silicon-containing, liquid source material, such as OMCTS. To avoid the possibility of flashback, the burner has separate passages for fuel (205) and oxygen (204, 206), i.e., the burner employs nozzle mixing, rather than premixing, of the fuel and oxygen. The burners are installed in burner holes (26) formed in the crown (20) of a furnace and form a seal with those holes so that ambient air cannot be entrained into the furnace through the holes. An external air cooled jacket (60) can be used to hold the temperature of the burner below a prescribed upper limit, e.g., 400° C.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 1999Date of Patent: July 8, 2003Assignee: Corning IncorporatedInventors: Meryle D. M. Adler, John T. Brown, Mahendra K. Misra

Patent number: 6206684Abstract: A system and method is provided in the form of an injector assembly 10 for thoroughly premixing fuel and oxidizer reactants and water upstream of a combustion chamber 12. The assembly includes a housing 20 that has a first stack 30 for thoroughly mixing reactants from an oxidizer source 40 and a fuel source 50. It also includes a second stack 80 for mixing and blending the prior mixed reactants with coolant water, before ignition within a combustion chamber 12. The mixing and blending is accomplished in mixing cups 100 where the water and reactant mixture are joined in perpendicular flow streams. Some water is also introduced tangentially in the mixing cups to promote vortical flow and further enhance the mixing process. An alternative injector assembly 210 is also provided that mixes the reactants in a swirl cup 260 and enhances mixture ratio uniformity by means of a diffusion plate insert 270.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 1999Date of Patent: March 27, 2001Assignee: Clean Energy Systems, Inc.Inventor: H.
