A head is disclosed for use with a continuous manufacturing system. The head may have a housing configured to receive a matrix and a continuous fiber, and a diverter located at an end of the housing. The diverter may be configured to divert radially outward a matrix-coated fiber. The head may also include a cutoff having an edge configured to press the matrix-coated fiber against the diverter.

A water dispersing system (WDS) that allows a selectable quantity of water to be dispersed into an environment. The WDS utilizes a fan and a water supply assembly. The fan has a frame inside of which are two rotating blades, and preferably a stand. The water supply assembly includes a reservoir, a water tube, and a water dispersing head. Water is gravity fed from the reservoir, through the water tube and out of the head. Water from the head is directed into the first fan's rotating blades. Once the water hits the blades, the water is re-directed back out through a front grill on the fan. The second fan blades project air outward. The amount of water that comes from the WDS can be selectably chosen, from a light mist to a heavier spray, and the temperature of the water can be lowered by placing ice into the reservoir with the water. An excess water basin catches any water that drips downward from the blades.

Disclosed is the invention of a pump dispenser wherein a deformation prevention locking part induces a chaplet to move in the axial direction in a housing at the time of rotation of a head part, thereby allowing or restricting an operation of pressing a head part while preventing the deforming of an elastic member. The disclosed pump dispenser comprises: a cap part fastened to a container; a housing which is provided at the cap part and in which a content stored in the container remains in a dischargeable state; a shaft received in the housing so as to be movable in the axial direction, the shaft including a head part for discharging the content remaining in the housing to the outside through a pressing operation by an external force; a chaplet provided in the housing such that the shaft is inserted so as to be able to extend therethrough, the chaplet allowing or blocking the movement of the shaft on the basis of the angle of rotation of the head part; an elastic member provided on the circumference surface of the shaft and elastically supporting the chaplet and the head part; and a deformation prevention locking part for inducing the chaplet to move in the axial direction in the housing at the time of rotation of the head part, thereby allowing or restricting an operation of pressing the head part while preventing the deformation of the elastic member.

The disclosure relates to a coating system for coating components with a coating agent, in particular a painting system for painting motor vehicle bodywork components, comprising a first coating system component (12, 13) which during operation produces waste heat as a by-product and forms a heat source, and a second coating system component (1, 5) which is heated during operation and forms a heat sink. The disclosure provides that the waste heat of the first coating system component (12, 13) is fed to the second coating system component (1, 5) for heating. The disclosure further relates to a corresponding operating method.

A sprayer includes a sprayer body. The sprayer body is provided with a liquid material inlet, a liquid material nozzle, a gas inlet, a gas nozzle, a liquid material channel, and a gas channel. The liquid material nozzle and the liquid material inlet both communicate with the liquid material channel, the gas nozzle and the gas inlet both communicate with the gas channel, and the gas nozzle is provided at the liquid material nozzle. A dispersing member is provided in the liquid material channel and disposed at the liquid material nozzle. The dispersing member divides the liquid material channel into multiple sub-channels communicating with the liquid material nozzle.

Microfluidic delivery systems for dispensing a fluid composition into the air comprising microfluidic die and at least one heating element that is configured to receive an electrical signal comprising a certain on-time and wave form to deliver a fluid composition into the air.

A head is disclosed for use with a manufacturing system. The head may have a housing that discharges a tubular structure, and a cure enhancer connected to the housing and selectively activated to cure the tubular structure during discharge from the housing. The head may also have a nozzle that discharges a fill material into the cured tubular structure.

A method and apparatus is disclosed for additive manufacturing and three-dimensional printing, and specifically for extruding tubular objects. A print head extrudes a curable material into a tubular object, while simultaneously curing the tubular object and utilizing the interior of the cured portion of the tubular object for stabilizing and propelling the print head.

A head is disclosed for use with a manufacturing system. The head may have a housing configured to discharge a tubular structure reinforced with at least one continuous fiber and having a three-dimensional trajectory, and a cure enhancer operatively connected to the housing and configured to cure a liquid matrix in the tubular structure during discharge. The head may also have a nozzle configured to discharge a fill material into the tubular structure, and a wand extending from the housing to the nozzle.

A method of atomizing a fluid using a pair of counter-rotating rollers including a first roller having grooves, the grooves enclosed by a pair of fins extending away from the first surface and a second roller having channels, the first and second rollers aligned with each other such that the grooves of the first roller mate with the channels of the second roller forming enclosures and nips. The method includes drawing the fluid from a fluid source through the nips, the nips having an upstream side and a downstream side, stretching the fluid between the diverging surfaces of the pair of counter-rotating rollers on the downstream side of the nips to form fluid filaments, and forming fluid droplets from the stretched fluid filaments on the downstream side of the nips between the diverging surfaces of the pair of counter-rotating rollers.
