A fluid discharging nozzle cleaning apparatus includes: a cup in which an inner space, an upper opening which is open to allow a fluid discharging nozzle to enter the inner space, and a lower opening through which a cleaning liquid is discharged from the inner space to an outside are formed; a cleaning liquid discharger configured to discharge the cleaning liquid to the fluid discharging nozzle in a state in which the fluid discharging nozzle is positioned in the inner space of the cup; and a drying gas discharger configured to discharge a drying gas for drying the fluid discharging nozzle after the discharge of the cleaning liquid ends.

A highly portable, self-contained, multiple-item drying system that directs an antibacterial warmed air flow stream through a series of separate flexible, expandable, conduits (hoses) to provide an efficient, inexpensive, uncomplicated drying, sanitizing, deodorizing, and heating apparatus.

The present invention provides methods and systems for a portable modular drying device that includes a distributing manifold for receiving a blower device that distributes air through the device, and at least one drying manifold having a first end, a second end, and at least one opening between the first end and the second end for distributing the drying air selectively secured to the distributing manifold. The device further includes at least one drying hose or glove tube selectively secured to the at least one opening of the at least one drying manifold.

The present invention provides a water-based coating and/or coating system used to form sag resistant wet layers or coatings on a wide range of substrates. The coating system is effective for protecting metal-containing substrates, such as intermodal cargo containers, against corrosion. As an overview, the present invention provides water-based compositions as primer coats on substrates, and methods for applying the same to substrates. The method includes steps of applying a water-based paint to the interior surfaces of a substrate and drying the substrate by continuously forcing heated air onto the substrate as it moves through a drying chamber. Desirably, the primer incorporates a high level of one or more CAS agents for excellent sag resistance while drying in a broad range of relative humidity environments. Alternatively, modifications can be made to control temperature and humidity during spray application and drying as a way to increase sag resistance of the coating.

Provided are a container-interior drying device and a container-interior drying method capable of shortening drying time and improving the efficiency in an entire filling line without causing container deformation, the device having a simple configuration and requiring little space for installation. The device includes a gas ejector nozzle (110) capable of being inserted into an interior of a container through an opening of the container, a suction mechanism (120) capable of facing the opening of the container, and a gas supply unit (130) configured to supply the gas ejector nozzle (110) with gas, wherein gas is ejected into the interior of the container from the gas ejector nozzle (110), and the suction mechanism (120) positioned so as to face the opening of the container sucks out gas through the opening of the container.

A system and method for drying cavities containing spent nuclear fuel is devised. The invention utilizes a non-intrusive procedure that is based on monitoring the dew point temperature of a non-reactive gas that is circulated through the cavity. In one aspect, the invention is a system for drying a cavity loaded with spent nuclear fuel comprising: a canister forming the cavity, the cavity having an inlet and an outlet; a source of non-reactive gas; means for flowing the non-reactive gas from the source of non-reactive gas through the cavity; and means for repetitively measuring the dew point temperature of the non-reactive gas exiting the cavity.

A shoulder pad dryer and hanger is shown and described. The shoulder pad dryer and hanger includes a central support. The central support has a pair of cross supports connected opposite each other. The central support and the pair of cross supports are hollow such that air flows through the interior of the device. The central support and the pair of cross supports have apertures therein to allow air to pass therethrough. There is a hook located at the top of the central support. At the bottom of the central support there is a fan to force air through the device. There is a shoulder pad support system attached to each of the cross supports that will keep shoulder pads suspended from the device allowing air to flow beneath the pads.

A method for drying at least one unfired columnar honeycomb formed body comprising a raw material composition containing at least one raw material of ceramics, water and at least one heat-gelling binder, and cells defined by partition walls comprising flow paths from a first end surface to a second end surface. The method comprising drying the honeycomb formed body by passing hot gas satisfying 0.8≤T2/T1≤3.3, where T1 represents a gelation temperature of the binder (° C.) and T2 represents a wet-bulb temperature of the hot gas (° C.) through the flow paths from the first end surface and out the second end surface, while surrounding the honeycomb formed body with a correction mold to correct the shape of the honeycomb formed body during drying.
