Vibrating a dispense head to move fluid

In an example implementation, a method of dispensing fluid from a fluid dispensing device, includes receiving a dispense head at a receiving station, and receiving a notification that a supply slot in the dispense head has been filled with fluid. The method includes vibrating the dispense head to move fluid through a microfluidic channel from the supply slot into an ejection chamber of the dispense head, and providing a dispense signal to cause an ejection mechanism disposed within the chamber to eject an amount of the fluid from the dispense head.

AUTOMATED DRY GRANULAR MATERIAL DISPENSER
20210252528 · 2021-08-19 ·

An automatic dry material dispenser for dispensing dry material such as fertilizer to pots or other containers passing by on a conveyor. The device is controlled by a photo-detector or mechanical switch to dispense material when the container is in the proper position. The device consists of a material reservoir, a flexible feed hose, a pipe and elbow which can be pivoted by an electric solenoid and electronics for control. As the pipe and elbow are pivoted to a stop by the solenoid material is expelled from the elbow and down into the passing pot. The amount of material dispensed is controlled by an insert-able cylinder and by selecting the number of dispensing cycles per pot.

Oscillating Range Adjusting Module for Use in Sprinkler
20210260610 · 2021-08-26 ·

An oscillating range adjusting module with modular design for being mounted into a sprinkler is revealed. The oscillating range adjusting module which includes a first adjusting unit and a second adjusting unit is located between a water-in control module and an oscillation driving module. During assembly, the first adjusting unit is fitted on an inlet tube of a water-in control module. After an O-ring being connected to the first adjusting unit, the second adjusting unit is mounted on the inlet tube and connected to the first adjusting unit by at least one fastener of the second adjusting unit engaged with at least one connection surface of the first adjusting unit. Lastly a water inlet of the oscillation driving module is connected to the second adjusting unit. Thereby, a modular assembly of the oscillating range adjusting module between the oscillation driving module and the water-in control module is achieved.

SPRINKLER WEIGHT
20210260616 · 2021-08-26 ·

A weight for attaching to a sprinkler is disclosed. The weight includes a connector having a passageway for water to flow between a first end and a second end. The first end includes a first coupling. The second end includes an outer surface and an inner surface. The outer surface includes a second coupling and the inner surface includes a third coupling. The connector supports a shell having a chamber. The chamber allows a user to add weight to or subtract weight from the shell. In a first aspect, the weight can be attach in multiple orientations to the same sprinkler. In a second aspect, the weight can be attached to a plurality of sprinklers that have different designs. In either aspect, the weight is considered universal.
