Sprinkler head
A sprinkler head includes a main body having, thereinside, a nozzle connected to a water supply pipe, a deflector having a disk shape with a plurality of slits in an edge portion, where the deflector is disposed so as to intersect with a central axis of the nozzle, and a support member configured to connect the main body to the deflector. A circular arc shaped first convex portion is formed in a direction from the center of the deflector to a position obtained by rotating the position of the support member by 90 degrees around the center, circular arc shaped first slits are disposed on either side of the convex portion, and the shape of a portion from one of the first slits to the other via the first convex portion is corrugated.
Rotary sprinkler for varying irrigation pattern
A rotary sprinkler comprises a rotatable irrigation head with one or more nozzles, associated with liquid feed lines, which extend thereto from a sprinkler base housing, and further comprises a static biasing control base located below the irrigation head, e.g. between the sprinkler base housing and the irrigation head. The sprinkler can comprise a flow regulator arm, whose movement, at least indirectly, results in reducing the cross-sectional area of liquid flow towards at least one of the nozzles, and a flow deflector arm configured to interfere with a liquid jet discharged from at least one of the nozzles in order to affect the angle and range of the liquid jet. The static biasing control base can comprise an array of biasing elements, which can bias a cam follower configured to rotate together with the irrigation head and transfer its rotational displacement to the flow regulator arm and flow deflector arm, e.g. through respective gear elements. The gear elements can be adjusted to control a ratio between the extent of deflection of the two arms due to the rotation of the cam follower. The rotatable irrigation head can comprise a cover for preventing exposure of the dynamic control elements to the exterior of the sprinkler.
A SENSOR CLEANING DEVICE
The present disclosure relates to a sensor cleaning device (1) for cleaning an external vehicle sensor device from above, the sensor cleaning device comprising, a liquid inlet (10) for receiving pressurized liquid, a first and a second liquid outlet (11, 12) for emitting pressurized liquid which is received from the liquid inlet (10), a chamber (13) for pressurized liquid fluidly connecting the liquid inlet (10) and the first and second liquid outlets (11, 12), wherein each one of the first and second liquid outlets is having a width and a length, wherein the length extends in a length direction (L1, L2) and the width extends in a width direction (w1, w2), wherein the length direction is perpendicular to the width direction, and wherein the first and second liquid outlets (11, 12) are configured so that pressurized liquid is emitted transversely through a sectional plane defined by the width direction and the length direction, wherein, the length is greater than the width for each first and second liquid outlet so that a first and second line-shaped liquid outlet (11, 12) is formed, and the first and second line-shaped liquid outlets (11, 12) are further configured so that emitted pressurized liquid therefrom during use impinge each other, thereby forming a resulting sheet of liquid (LS).
Fire protection nozzle, fire protection sprinkler, fire protection systems, and methods of manufacturing a fire protection nozzle and a fire protection sprinkler
A fire protection nozzle includes a body having two frame arms having proximal ends connected to an outlet of the body, and distal ends, the two frame arms defining a frame arm plane, and a junction formed by the distal ends of the frame arms, the junction including a central bore and an outer wall. A deflector is mounted to the body, and includes a planar member having a mounting hole in a center of the planar member to receive the outer wall of the junction, and a plurality of slots on a periphery of the planar member. The plurality of slots includes first slots, second slots, third slots, and fourth slots.

FLUIDIC OSCILLATOR DEVICE WITH THREE-DIMENSIONAL OUTPUT
Various implementations include fluidic oscillator devices with three-dimensional output. The devices define an inner channel having an interaction chamber, fluid supply inlet, outlet nozzle, and first and second feedback channels. The fluid supply inlet introduces a fluid stream into the interaction chamber. The fluid stream exits the interaction chamber through the outlet nozzle. The first and second feedback channels are in fluid communication with the interaction chamber. The walls of the interaction chamber are configured to allow fluid from the fluid stream to flow into the first and second feedback channels and to cause the fluid stream to sweep between the walls of the interaction chamber. The sweeping of the fluid stream between the wails of the interaction chamber causes the fluid stream exiting the outlet nozzle to sweep. The structure of the inner channel of the device causes the exiting fluid stream to sweep three-dimensionally.

Systems and methods for generating an electrochemical cell having a multi-part anode
A nozzle is provided for providing anode material into an electrochemical cell and method of using the same. The nozzle comprises a hollow tubular body extending between an open upper end and an open lower end; a lower deflector spaced apart from the open lower end of the hollow tubular body and forming an annular opening between a deflection surface of the lower deflector and the open lower end of the hollow tubular body; and a support rod connecting the lower deflector with the hollow tubular body, wherein the support rod is suspended within an interior of the hollow tubular body by one or more support trusses.
CONCEALABLE WINDOW SPRINKLER
A concealable sprinkler head includes a frame having a body mountable to a fire suppression liquid source, a pair of frame arms and a pair of corresponding drop pins slidably engaged with a respective frame arm. A thermal trigger is supported within the sprinkler frame. A fluid deflector is secured to the drop pins and includes a generally horizontal surface. The drop pins extend substantially orthogonally from the horizontal surface. An inclined surface of the fluid deflector extends angularly upwardly from the horizontal surface. A concealing cup surrounds the frame arms. A cover plate is attached to the concealing cup, covering the distal end thereof, wherein the drop pins and the deflector are positioned within the concealing cup. The cover plate is removable from the concealing cup permitting the drop pins and the deflector to axially slide out of the concealing cup into an operational position.
SHOWER SYSTEM
A shower system includes a nozzle that can dispense a stream of water through airspace in a first direction. The shower system includes a flow redirector that can receive the stream of water from the nozzle through the airspace and rebound the stream of water to redirect the stream of water in a second direction different from the first direction.
