EJECTOR AND VACUUM GENERATING DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME
An ejector includes an ejector body having an internal passage and a negative-pressure generating mechanism including a nozzle unit and a diffuser unit that generates a negative pressure by using compressed air ejected by the nozzle unit. The ejector body has a first attachment surface to which a valve body of a switching valve is attached and a second attachment surface to which a base body of the manifold base is attached. The first attachment surface has a first inflow port for supplying compressed air to the negative-pressure generating mechanism by being connected to a first output port of the switching valve, and this port communicates with the nozzle unit. The second attachment surface has a negative-pressure supply port for outputting a negative pressure to the outside by being connected to a negative-pressure inflow port of the manifold base, and this port communicates with the diffuser unit.
Method and apparatus for repairing a jet pump slip joint
A jet pump slip joint repair assembly includes at least one clamp and a bushing configured to be inserted in a bore of a diffuser and to surround a portion of an inlet mixer. The clamp includes a gripping surface and a gripping collar. The bushing includes a generally cylindrical sidewall, the sidewall configured to surround the portion of the inlet mixer, a grooved flange on an upper surface of the sidewall, at least one cutout between adjacent portions of the grooved flange, and a groove on an inner, bottom surface of the sidewall. The assembly also includes a seal in the groove. The seal is flexible and formed of a metallic material. The seal is configured to be compressed when the at least one clamp engages the bushing.

EJECTOR DEVICE
An ejector device comprises a housing (110) having a motive fluid inlet (111) to receive motive fluid, a suction fluid inlet (112) to receive suction fluid and a fluid outlet (113) to output the motive fluid and the suction fluid. The ejector device comprises a nozzle and diffuser assembly (150) configured to fit within the housing (110). The nozzle and diffuser assembly (150) comprises a nozzle (160), a diffuser (170) and a connecting structure (180) connecting the nozzle (160) to the diffuser 170. The connecting structure (180) is configured to permit fluid flow between the nozzle (160) and the diffuser (170). The connecting structure (180) has apertures (182) configured to allow fluid to be drawn into the fluid flow between the nozzle 160 and the diffuser (170).
Device for collecting waste from water
A device having a funnel structure (connected to a separating arrangement by a base pipe is disclosed. The base pipe is horizontal and arranged between the funnel structure and the base pipe. The base pipe is also a vertical suction pipe. The device includes a pressure pipe which is parallel to the base pipe. The funnel structure is slightly below the water surface. In operation, water and floating waste pass over the edges of the funnel structure and swirl into the suction pipe. A jet of water may be injected through the pressure pipe to the base pipe. A flow gradient may then be formed in the base pipe and the differently sized waste objects may separate. If the water contains liquid waste, the speed of the water jet may be adjusted in such a way that the liquid waste and water do not form an emulsion.

Injection nozzle for a spray device and spray device
An injection nozzle for a spray device for drawing in a fluid suction medium by a fluid propellant which is under excess pressure and for spraying an admixture of the suction medium and the propellant. The injection nozzle has a nozzle housing, an injection chamber arranged in the nozzle housing, a jet nozzle which opens in the injection chamber for producing a propellant jet which is introduced into the injection chamber, and a fluid suction opening for the fluid suction medium. The fluid suction opening opens in an annular channel which has a flow connection to the injection chamber.

Air intake and blowout tool
A compressed air introduction part (5) capable of introducing compressed air into an air passage (2a) of a cylinder body (2) is provided. The compressed air introduction part (5) has a compressed air exit port (5a) formed in the shape of a ring that extends circumferentially about a cylinder-center axis (C1) of the cylinder body (2). An annular protuberance surface portion (30) is formed on an inner circumferential surface forming the air passage (2a) on an air blowout port (2c) side of the compressed air exit port (5a), and a protuberance surface (30a) of the annular protuberance surface portion (30) is shaped so as to extend from a peripheral edge portion of the air blowout port (2c) side of the compressed air exit port (5a) along the radial direction of the cylinder body (2) and to then gradually curve and extend toward the air blowout port (2c) side.
