Cleaning system for vehicles and cleaning method for same
A vehicle cleaning system includes a drive pump, an ejection nozzle and a valve device. The valve device includes an intake passage, a valve that closes the intake passage and accumulates pressure of the fluid supplied to the intake passage, a discharge passage, and an auxiliary mechanism. The auxiliary mechanism generates leakage of the fluid from the intake passage during the pressure accumulation to accumulate pressure with the leakage at a leaked side, opens the valve body based on two pressures accumulated in the intake passage and the leaked side, outputs the fluid, which is pressure-accumulated in the intake passage, to the discharge passage by opening the valve body, and closes the valve body as the fluid is output to the discharge passage to allow for re-accumulation of the pressure in the intake passage.
Valve, fluid control device, pressurizing device, and sphygmomanometer
A valve includes a housing, a membrane, and a hole. The housing includes a flat plate having a hole connectable to an external pump, a housing component having a hole connectable to a component to which a fluid is discharged, and a valve chamber held between a housing component including the flat plate and the housing component. The membrane divides a valve chamber into a space facing the flat plate and a space facing the housing component. The hole is connected to the space facing the flat plate and the space facing the housing component. The housing component has a hole that is connectable to an outside of the housing and that allows the fluid to flow out from the valve chamber.
