An automated painting system that includes a robotic arm and a painting end effector coupled at a distal end of the robotic arm, with the painting end effector configured to apply paint to a target surface. The painting system can also include a computing device executing a computational planner that: generates instructions for driving the painting end effector and robotic arm to perform at least one painting task that includes applying paint, via the painting the end effector, to a plurality of drywall pieces, the generating based at least in part on obtained target surface data; and drives the end effector and robotic arm to perform the at least one painting task.

A spray device and a method of using the spray device are provided. The spray device facilitates the application of a liquid such as a pretreatment liquid to an area of a fabric material. The spray device can be positioned on or adjacent portions of the fabric material and/or a substrate supporting the fabric material. The spray device can be activated to spray the pretreatment liquid and move the spray device on portions of the fabric material and/or the substrate supporting the fabric material.

A fluid application system includes a pump unit configured to pump a fluid to a fluid applicator. The fluid application system includes a sensor configured to sense a motion made by a user and generate a sensor signal indicative of the sensed motion. The fluid application system also includes a control system configured to identify a gesture based on the sensor signal and control the fluid application system based on the identified gesture.

Disclosed is a barrel cleaner (10), including a cantilevered lift to raise a barrel, bearings (31, 32) to permit rotation of the barrel once raised, and a spray head support (20) including a spray head. In use the barrel may be rotated so that a bung hole of the barrel is in an insertion position, and the support can be operated to insert the spray head into the bung hole.

A system includes a first nozzle assembly positioned along a boom assembly. The first nozzle assembly includes a first valve operably coupled with a first nozzle. A first imaging device is associated with the first nozzle assembly. A second nozzle assembly is positioned along the boom assembly and includes a second valve operably coupled with a second nozzle. A second imaging device is associated with the second nozzle assembly. A computing system is operably coupled with the first nozzle assembly, the first imaging device, the second nozzle assembly, and the second imaging device. The computing system is configured to receive data from the first imaging device, identify a first reference point within the data provided by the first imaging device, receive data from the second imaging device, identify a second reference point within the data provided by the second imaging device, and determine a boom deflection model.

An apparatus for collecting and dispensing fluid is disclosed. The apparatus comprises of a main barrel comprising a primary reservoir for collecting and storing fluid and a secondary unit comprising of a secondary reservoir for storing and dispensing fluid. The main barrel defines a space for receiving the secondary unit and the secondary unit is configured to be operably docked in the space defined by the main barrel. The secondary unit when docked to the main barrel, the main barrel and the secondary unit are coupled to receive fluid from the primary reservoir of the main barrel into the secondary reservoir of the secondary unit.

A tire shine application system includes a computer having at least one sensor interfaced thereto that detects and measures sizes of a tire of a vehicle as the vehicle enters a car wash. A tire shine applicator is interfaced to a three-directional movement device that is controlled by the computer. When the tire approaches the tire shine applicator, the computer controls the three-directional movement device to position the tire shine applicator to an outwardly facing wall of the tire and controls the three-directional movement device so that the tire shine applicator traverses the outwardly facing wall of the tire while tracking the tire as the tire shine applicator deposits tire shine liquid on the outwardly facing wall of the tire.

An effective implementation is shown for a height adjustment system for a plurality of spray guns used in a line striper.

The present invention is directed to a pressure washer having a main housing and a roll cage surrounding the main housing for protection. The roll cage is generally rectangular and provides flat surfaces to make it easier to store the unit, and importantly provides a flat top surface to allow other items to stack on top of the unit. The main housing also includes a storage compartment to store accessories, including a trigger gun. The trigger gun includes a trigger guard with openings to store additional nozzles for the gun.

A paint sprayer includes an end bell, a motor connected to the end bell, a pump drive connected to the end bell, a pair of protrusions attached to an extending from the end bell such that each protrusion is cantilevered from the end bell, and a pump assembly comprising a pair of mounting holes and containing a piston. The pair of mounting holes is adapted to receive and slide onto the pair of protrusions to mount the pump assembly on the end bell as well as slide off of the pair of protrusions to remove the pump assembly from the end bell. The pump drive is configured to covert rotational motion output by the motor to reciprocal motion. The pump assembly is configured to pump paint when reciprocated by the pump drive while mounted on the end bell.
