Abstract: A full cone spray nozzle comprising: a nozzle body (1) having a liquid inlet (3) at its upstream end and a spray orifice (4) at its downstream end; a vane structure (2) of an axial direction length (W) and diameter (D) arranged with its outer circumferential surface in contact with the inside of the nozzle body (1); has a plurality of channel grooves (6) of width (T) and depth (H) at the outer circumferential surface of the vane structure (2); an upstream side projecting part (8) of a length (U) in the axial direction of the nozzle body (1) at an upstream side of the vane structure (2); a downstream side projecting part (9) of a length (P) in the axial direction of the nozzle body (1) at a downstream side of the vane structure (2); and a swirl flow chamber (5) of an axial direction length (L) which is a space formed by an inside wall surface of the nozzle body (1), the vane structure (2) and the spray orifice (4), wherein 0.25?T/D?0.30, 0.25?H/D?0.30, and 1.5?L/W?3.5 are satisfied.

Abstract: The air gun comprises a substantially cylindrical-shaped external case (2), provided at one end with a connection element (8) suitable to enable the connection of the air gun (1) with a device for supplying a fluid to be sprayed, and provided at the opposite end with an expulsion device (10) suitable to enable the outlet of the fluid to be sprayed towards the outside. Inside the case (2) is arranged a vortex generator device (9) provided with a plurality of internal walls (91) having curvilinear profiles. The walls (91) define a plurality of separated helical pipes (93), in order to give the fluid to be sprayed a helical rotatory motion.

Abstract: A system for spray delivery of liquids comprising a motor axially coupled to one or more pistons through a wobble plate coupling. Each piston feeds an input port of a swirl chamber spray nozzle. Each piston may separately pulse the swirl chamber using a different injection point. In one embodiment, the spray nozzle, swirl chamber, feed channels and cylinder heads for the cylinders may be formed as a single integrated casting. In one embodiment, the sprayer may include an intermediate plate rotatably mounted on the wobble plate. The sprayer may include a piston cap with a flat contact with the wobble plate/intermediate plate and a spherical interface with the piston. In a further embodiment, the system may be configured for handheld application of liquids and may comprise a tank for holding the liquid, a power source and control actuator together with the spray pump and nozzle in a hand operable package.

Abstract: An adjustable water jet device that allows for the arc of the jet of water to be adjusted while the water is still flowing through the device. A multipurpose tool is disclosed which has a central hollow cavity surrounded by a grip. The multipurpose tool can be used to adjust the arc of the water jet, allowing the water to flow through the central hollow cavity of the tool. The multipurpose tool can also be used to adjust the flow rate of water through the device and to disassemble the device for maintenance purposes.

Abstract: Adjustable nozzles are disclosed. Nozzles of the present invention include an adjustable component for controlling the water flow through the nozzle. Instead of disassembling the nozzle, a tool may be used to adjust the adjustable component. For example, the adjustable component may be adjusted longitudinally with respect to the axis of the nozzle or rotationally using the tool, thereby increasing or decreasing the volume, velocity and distance of the water stream exiting the nozzle.

Abstract: A tamper resistant aerating/laminarizing assembly includes a slotted, annular retainer piece that threads into the faucet spout or a separate spout extension so that it is recessed back from the opening and thereby hidden and difficult to operate without a special key that fits through the opening to engage the slots. The retainer supports a cartridge, containing flow modifying elements, from its downstream side, rather than from above, so that it is located almost entirely to one side of the cartridge and does not add to the overall diameter of the cartridge.

Abstract: A sprinkler head apparatus includes two separately molded members secured together independently of a water volume control member. A number of selectively removable devices that withstand the forces of water in irrigation systems and can be easily removed by the user without additional hardware are situated at the entry point of water outflow channels to provide the user directional control of the water sprayed from the apparatus. Registration elements are provided to ensure the proper alignment between the members of the apparatus. Correspondingly, indicia located at upper and lower external surfaces of the assembled apparatus reduce or eliminate the need to disassemble the apparatus or intermittently test the water spray pattern to ensure proper installation of the apparatus. Preferred methods for assembling the apparatus, for directing the outflow of water, and for aligning the members of the apparatus are disclosed.

Abstract: A nozzle element is described, which can is inserted into a nozzle body, either fixed in position or adjustably, and together with the nozzle body forms a component of a windshield wiper system of a motor vehicle. The nozzle element consists of a hard metallic, ball-like base body and a cylindrical projection formed in one piece with the body. A hose-like resilient sleeve is pulled tightly onto the body, and closes off the outer ends of transverse channels which are in flow connection with a centered flow channel. Via the channel, washing fluid for the windshield is supplied under pressure. Thereby, the resilient sleeve bulges outwards so that the fluid can flow out of the nozzle element on the inside of the sleeve and on the outside of the cylindrical projection via an annular channel formed under pressure.

Abstract: A portable reservoir container storing liquid, mounts on its inflow port section a heater and a vortex mixing device in series. Liquid from the bottom of the container is fed to the vortex mixing device in response to the inflow of oxygen gas thereto producing an outflow of liquid and oxygen gas in a vortical flow pattern that is delivered to the inflow port section of the container. A flow of conditioned oxygen gas is discharged from the gas space of the container through an outflow portion section.

Abstract: Disclosed is a reactor for gasifying coal including a vortex burner. Helical ribs are arranged in the inner combustion gas supplying conduit of the burner to impart a spiral trajectory to the gas and also the coal-water suspension which suspension is supplied in the annular space between the inner conduit and an outer concentric conduit. Means are provided for adjustably supporting the ribs inside the inner conduit. In addition, other rib supporting arrangements and also burner structure for supplying the coal-water slurry centrally are disclosed.

Abstract: A nozzle for spraying molten sulphur to be burned. The nozzle has a generally cylindrical body with a threaded axial bore. A diffusion chamber, a diversion cone and at least two openings are located within the nozzle. At least two tangential passageways connect the openings with a swirl chamber and a nozzle tip is positioned adjacent to the swirl chamber.
