Abstract: A nozzle for spraying surfaces is equipped with a piston rod centrally arranged in a feeding duct. The piston rod has an impact plate which is held by a spring in a position aligned with the surface to be sprayed. As a result of liquid pressure, the impact plate arrives in a second end position at a distance from the surface to be sprayed in which. As a result of a ring gap on an input side around the piston rod, the impact plate becomes a deflecting part for the spraying liquid exiting in a ring shape, which, in a circular spraying cone directed at a flat angle with respect to the surface to be sprayed, is then emitted onto the surface to be sprayed.

Abstract: A seedbed preparation apparatus attachable to existing seed planting devices comprising a coulter cart. The apparatus is designed to lessen the number of passes required to prepare and plant a field. Fertilizer delivery is provided to the soil raised by the coulter wheels. The fertilizer injector nozzles are secured to flexible mounting devices to permit the nozzle to move in accordance with the terrain preventing clogging or stoppage of the nozzles.

Abstract: A frost clip is provided for a rotary sprinkler of the type which includes a sprinkler body, a nozzle for emitting a stream and a rotatable distributor plate adapted to receive and redirect the stream. The frost clip is attachable to the sprinkler body so as to be intermittently engaged by the stream as the distributor plate rotates about its axis of rotation. The frost clip is formed with a channel facing radially towards and extending substantially parallel to an axis of rotation of the rotor plate. The channel is constructed and arranged to intermittently deflect the stream back toward the rotor plate and at least a portion of the sprinkler body as the stream rotates past the clip, to thereby inhibit ice buildup on the rotor plate and adjacent sprinkler body portions.

Abstract: A dust cleaning nozzle for cleaning a cathode ray tube comprises a pipe with an axially extending hollow part, and an ejecting angle changing mechanism attached to one end of the pipe. The nozzle, after insertion through the neck of the cathode ray tube, changes the ejecting angle of air ejected from the ejecting angle chainging mechanism with respect to the axis of the pipe so as to be efficient in removing dust from the tube.

Abstract: A duocone spray nozzle having two concentric peripheral orifices which will produce two hollow spray cones, one inside the other. Each orifice size is varied by employing its own spring and each spring acts independently and is compressed under its own pressure drop. The springs are designed so that the inner spring will open the inner orifice at a pressure drop which is lower than the pressure drop occurring at the outer office. Therefore, the inner spray cone occurs before the outer spray cone. When the pressure drop at the inner orifice exceeds a predetermined value, the outer orifice opens and after this occurs there will be two spray cones. A hold structure aids in separating the two spray cones.
