A method collects radar signals reflected from particles distributed by an emission device. A three-dimensional range-angle-velocity cube is formed from the radar signals. The three-dimensional range-angle-velocity cube includes individual bins with radar intensity values characterizing angle and range for a specific velocity. The three-dimensional range-angle-velocity cube is analyzed to identify a ground plane and radar signals reflected from particles immediately proximate to the ground plane. Total particle deposition distribution is predicted.

Includes an electromechanical device (1), which acts like an electronic catalog for the olfactory testing of different fragrances or aromas, contained in an absorbent cylindrical element (2) inserted into individual cartridges (3), which are interchangeable and encased in a carousel (4), supported on central bearings (5) and radially moved by means of an electric motor (6) with reducer (7) and gearing (8) that acts in a circular rack (9). Upon receiving a command, via application, the carousel (4) turns positioning the cartridge (3), corresponding to the fragrance or aroma chosen, in front of the connector nozzle (10), thanks to a positioning sensor (S), which counts the turns of the shaft of the electric motor (6). Next, a mechanical actuator (11) formed by an electric motor (12), gearing (13) that acts in a straight rack (14), which in turn drives a drawing cane (15), which pushes, and then retracts the cartridge, (3) inside the connector nozzle (10), and jointly with the air flow coming from a flexible hose (16), from where the air inflated by a compressor (17) enters said cartridge (3), forces the emission of the scent by the outlet orifice (18) of the top (19) of the box (20), thus providing the user a reliable olfactory testing.

A touchless cleaning assembly for cleaning a room in a touch-less manner includes a cabinet is recessed into a wall of a room. A plurality of hose reels is positioned in the cabinet and each of the hose reels includes a hose that is drawable outwardly from the cabinet for spraying a fluid for cleaning surfaces in the room, for blowing air to dry the surfaces and to vacuum the surfaces. An air compressor is positioned within the cabinet to direct compressed air into a respective hose reel to dry the surfaces. A vacuum is positioned within the cabinet to supply vacuum pressure to the a respective hose reel for suctionally removing the fluid from a floor of the room.

A sprinkler assembly including a pressure regulator and a flow stop element combined in a single assembly. In one embodiment, the sprinkler includes a sprinkler body in fluid communication with a water supply to provide water to the sprinkler, a riser movably mounted in the sprinkler body and in fluid communication with the sprinkler body such that the riser rises up and out of the sprinkler body when water is provided to the sprinkler, a nozzle assembly mounted on a top end of the riser and in fluid communication with the riser; and a regulation element mounted in the riser and in contact with a portion of the nozzle assembly. The nozzle assembly holds the regulation member in an open position to allow flow of water to the nozzle assembly and to maintain a substantially constant water pressure in the nozzle assembly.

The invention relates to a spray unit comprising an axle (20), a disc (30), a disc shape modifying assembly (40) and a liquid applicator (50). The disc is configured to spin about the axle centred on the centre of the disc. The liquid applicator is configured to apply liquid to a surface of the disc. The disc shape modifying assembly is configured to modify the trajectory of the liquid droplets that leave the spray unit by way of varying the diameter of the disc.
