An essential oil reflux-type atomizer comprising the following structures: chassis (10), housing (30), atomization chamber (310), gas pump (21), gas tube (22), gas nozzle (23), oil nozzle (24), filter atomization mechanism (40). The filter atomization mechanism (40) is installed in the housing (30) and has a plurality of filter housings (41). A lower end of each of the filter housings (40) has one or more through holes (411). When the gas nozzle (23) ejects an airflow, the airflow draws out the essential oil through the oil nozzle (24) to form a mixed airflow which passes through each of the filter housings (41) successively. Larger essential oil droplets in the airflow are filtered by each of the filter housings (41) to be recycled, while the atomized essential oil gas will pass through the through holes (411) of each of the filter housings to be dispensed. At the same time, the essential oil droplets in the through holes (411) are re-atomized by the airflow to improve the atomization performance. The atomization chamber (310) comprises a guide board guiding the airflow from the gas nozzle (23) upwards towards the filter atomization mechanism (40).

An essential oil reflux-type atomizer comprising the following structures: a chassis, housing, atomization chamber, gas pump, gas tube, gas nozzle, oil nozzle, and filter atomization mechanism. Oil and gas flow together at the gas and oil nozzles to disperse and atomize the oil in the gas flow. A heater is used to raise the temperature of the oil where it is atomized, either by heating the oil itself or by heating the gas flowing into the oil. Thus, the atomizer can have improved performance, especially with essential oils having high viscosity and molecular weight.

A clawless synthetic jet actuator includes a cavity layer having an internal cavity for reception of a fluid volume and an orifice providing a fluid communication between the cavity and an external atmosphere; and an oscillatory membrane having a piezoelectric material adapted to deflect the oscillatory membrane in response to an electrical signal. The cavity has an opening in at least one planar surface of the cavity layer, and the cavity layer and the oscillatory membrane are joined by a high strength, low shear modulus adhesive material with the oscillatory membrane positioned adjacent to the planar surface having the cavity opening and adapted as an enclosing surface to said cavity opening. The oscillatory membrane is adapted to compress and expand a volume within the cavity, based on a deflection generated by the piezoelectric material, for generating a fluid flow between the cavity and the external atmosphere through the orifice.

A method and a circuit system for driving a nebulizer are provided. When the nebulizer receives acoustic waves, a control circuit extracts audio signals from the acoustic waves. Afterwards, the control circuit determines if the audio signals are within a predetermined frequency range, and can determine whether or not to drive a circuit to produce an aerosol based on the audio signals. Further, a volume of the acoustic waves can also be used to determine whether or not to produce the aerosol, and also determine an output rate of the aerosol. The circuit system of the nebulizer includes an audio receiver for receiving the acoustic waves, an aerosol generator for producing the aerosol, and the control circuit used to control a driving circuit of the aerosol generator to drive a vibrational element to produce the aerosol through vibration in response to the audio signals and the volume.

A dishwasher includes: a spray module which sprays washing water toward dishes; a sump which supplies washing water to the spray module; a pump which pumps washing water stored in the sump to the spray module; and an air jet generator which receives a part of washing water pumped from the pump to form an air bubble in washing water and discharges the air bubble to the sump, wherein the air jet generator comprises: a decompression portion which decreases a pressure of washing water; an air suction portion which is opened to allow air to flow into the decompression portion; a pressing portion which increases pressure so as to crush the air introduced from the air suction portion; and an air tap which has a plurality of holes configured to crush the air contained in washing water that passed through the pressing portion.

A shroud assembly fixed to an abrasive blasting nozzle provides acoustic dampening during operation of the blasting system to reduce damage to the hearing of the user. The shroud assembly additionally provides features that improve safety and reduce fatigue during use. A first embodiment includes an end closure made up of flat acoustic panels and an alternate embodiment includes an end opening having peripheral chevron shaped acoustic panel edges. The shroud assembly includes a mechanism for attachment of the shroud to the abrasive blasting nozzle, a cylindrical blast column positioned forward from and coaxial with the blast nozzle, a cylindrical cone shell with at least one layer of acoustic dampening material surrounding and coaxial with the cylindrical blast column, a dead man switch handle, a second extended handle, a peripheral air curtain generator at the forward opening, and nested layers of one or more types of acoustic material(s).

An air-cap nozzle 103b for discharging an atomising air jet 101b for atomising paint from a spray gun, the air cap nozzle comprising a tip surface having an atomizing air outlet 100b and a rim region 102b surrounding the outlet. The rim region 102b comprises a continuous serrated portion formed by a plurality of protrusions 104 that protrude axially outward from the rim region 100b of the tip surface. The protrusions 104 are separated by valleys 105 configured to permit entrainment of ambient air by the atomising air jet 101b, the entrained ambient air being drawn through the valleys. The permitted entrainment provides mixing between the entrained ambient air and the atomising air jet 101b.

Implementations provide cold spray additive manufacturing (CSAM) with gas recovery in situ in an open environment without requiring part disassembly and removal to a repair facility. Recapturing and reusing gas in an open environment reduces costs, rendering CSAM more commercially viable and efficient, and avoids risk of new damage to parts from contemporary pre-existing CSAM processes. A gas recovery nozzle attaches to a supersonic nozzle and sends used gas to a gas recovery sub-system by capturing gas that is deflected on impact with the part during CSAM. Captured gas is stored for reuse. A flexible coupling controls distance from the gas recovery nozzle to a part substrate to prevent (1) nozzle clogging; (2) stationary shock wave interference with gas flow; and (3) gas flow misdirection. The gas recovery nozzle also suppresses disruptive supersonic sounds. Implementations enable capture for later reuse of supersonically-propelled gas during in-situ CSAM in open environments.
