Abstract: A fuel injector including a combustion air flow conduit, a fuel inlet and, swirlers to mix the air and fuel flowing therethrough, additionally comprising fluidic control diverters including at least one control port, such that flow of control air through said control port allows variation in the degree of flow resistance to which combustion air is subjected. For example, control air flowing through the control port may impart swirl to the combustion air flow from the inlet, thereby subjecting the combustion air flow to increased resistance. Alternatively a fluidic diverter may selectively divert the main flow to either the first or second sub-conduits, each sub-conduit subjecting combustion air to different degrees of flow resistance.

Abstract: A shield cleaning system has a fluidic nozzle body (5) which is connected to a nipple (1) for the supply of cleaning fluid. The nipple (1) has at least one holding part (2) for invariable fastening to a body part. At its end facing the fluidic nozzle body (5), the nipple (1) has a spherical head (4). The fluidic nozzle body (5) is held on the latter by means of a ball socket (6) sealingly, but so as to be pivotable on all sides and rotable about its longitudinal axis relative to the nipple (1).

Abstract: A molded fluid device having a power nozzle with a width W and a coupling passage coupling a source of fluid to the power nozzle. The coupling passage is formed on one chip or insert surface and has a planar enlargement and a plurality of posts spaced across the enlargement, the spacing S between each post being less than the width of the power nozzle with the sum of spacing S being greater than the width W. A liquid spray nozzle is formed on an opposing chip surface and connected to the coupling passage downstream of the posts.

Abstract: Spa nozzles having dual fluidic nozzles capable of submerged operation and of selectively providing straight, concentrated, non-oscillating jets with air entrainment or an oscillating jet or slugs of water in water to provide a soothing massaging effect with no moving parts.

Abstract: A process for cleansing microorganisms from the pliant epidermal surface of a human hand which comprises brushlessly scrubbing the pliant epidermal surface of the human hand with a plurality of cleansing fluids. The cleansing fluids are oscillating sprays which are sprayed onto the epidermal surface at a frequency of 20-80 HZ and at a temperature of 40-50° C. thereby removing microorganisms present on the pliant epidermal surface.
