A robotic arm includes a tool located at an end of the robotic arm that delivers a material to a surface. A hose attachment manifold is mounted to the robotic arm. The hose attachment manifold includes an array of openings that extend through a manifold body of the hose attachment manifold. Fittings are mounted to the manifold body and within the openings. A plurality of upstream hoses are mounted to the fittings at a side of the manifold body. A plurality of downstream hoses are mounted to the fittings at an opposite side of the manifold body. The plurality of downstream hoses are fluidly connected to the tool for delivering a fluid material received from the plurality of upstream hoses.

A pump arrangement, in particular in a coating installation for the coating of components, such as a painting installation for the painting of motor vehicle body components, is provided. The pump arrangement includes a plurality of adjustable pumps for delivering a coating agent, e.g. for delivering a sealing agent for the sealing of weld seams on a motor vehicle body component. The pumps are connected in parallel such that the pumps extract the coating agent for delivery from a common inlet line and deliver said coating agent into a common outlet line. The arrangement further includes a control device for the open-loop or closed-loop control of one fluid variable at the outlet of the individual pumps, respectively, wherein the control device actuates the individual pumps individually, and/or a monitoring unit, which switches the pumps on and off non-simultaneously.

The present invention relates to a valve for a system for spraying a cleaning liquid, said valve comprising: —a valve body including a hydraulic cavity configured to be fluidically connected to a hydraulic channel of the spray system and intended to receive the cleaning liquid, —a plunger configured to be displaced in the hydraulic cavity between an open position, in which it allows the cleaning liquid to enter the hydraulic channel, and a closed position, in which it prevents the passage of the cleaning liquid through the hydraulic channel, —a compressible elastic element containing a gas disposed in the hydraulic cavity and configured to be compressed if the cleaning liquid in the valve freezes.

Provided is an unmanned aerial vehicle configured to be able to discharge a liquid, comprising: a container of the liquid; a discharging unit configured to discharge the liquid; and a coupling unit configured to couple the container and the discharging unit together, wherein the coupling unit includes a buffering unit configured to buffer stress generated in the coupling unit. The container may be an aerosol container. The coupling unit may include a rigid unit coupled to the buffering unit and configured to have rigidity higher than the buffering unit.

A water stream stop valve for a sprinkler includes a tube body, an annular cover, multiple securing units, and a drainage body having a hole at the center thereof, is arranged above the tube body by multiple support plates. The water stream stop valve is incorporated in a pop-up sprinkler that includes a main body, an expansion pipe with a stop member arranged at top internal diameter thereof, a spray head, and the water stream stop valve arranged inside the expansion pipe and below the spray head. When the spray head falls off expansion pipe, the water stream stop valve will be pushed up to the top of the expansion pipe and stop at the stop member for avoiding the overflow of water while maintaining the spraying at the original area, and delivering a service indication stream.

A closure 20 for a pressurized container having a plate with a top side 24 and a bottom side 28, a first notch 22 that extends about a first axis A1 along the top side, and a second notch 26 that extends about the first axis along the bottom side. The first and second notch form a membrane 62 that is capable of being ruptured when a maximum pressure causes the membrane to rupture.

An inkjet-type vehicle painting machine capable of keeping temperature elevation of a nozzle head to a certain temperature or less. The painting robot comprises a power supply means for supplying power to drive a piezoelectric substrate of a nozzle head, and a robot arm for moving the nozzle head. The nozzle head is provided in an explosion-proof housing equipped with an explosion-proof construction. A heat dissipation means that dissipates heat generated from the nozzle head within the explosion-proof housing is attached to the nozzle head. A temperature measurement means for measuring the temperature of the heat dissipation means is attached to the heat dissipation means.

A wastewater spray distribution apparatus is operative to distribute wastewater produced by a sewage treatment system (10) onto a ground level (22) through operation of sprayers (118, 260). The exemplary sprayers include a manifold (142, 262) that includes outlet nozzles (158, 264) that can be readily removed and replaced. The exemplary manifold further includes interior areas bounded by surfaces that slope continuously downward from the outlet nozzles to the manifold inlet to assure the draining of water therefrom. Each of the nozzles include a base (140) which includes a liquid tight jacket (208). The jacket isolates components which facilitate movement of a rotatable hub (154), from water passing through the sprayer and other contaminants. A brake is provided in each nozzle and includes a liquid lubricant in the jacket that operates to limit rotational movement produced by the thrust of water passing from the outlet nozzles to assure that the sprayer operates at the appropriate rotational speed.

A sprinkler housing assembly that defines a subterranean compartment to house the sprinkler head body, keeping it free from dirt and debris, yet safely below ground. The housing assembly has a peripherally sealed access opening through which an upper portion of the sprinkler head protrudes, thereby enabling the head to move between its inactive contracted position and its active extended position for watering the lawn. In the inactive contracted position, a user of the present invention may access the body of the sprinkler head in the enclosed compartment, to replace the entire sprinkler head, via an upper opening of the housing assembly, wherein the upper opening is adjacent or just downward to the groundlines. As a result, without digging and with only a screwdriver, the user may remove the entire sprinkler without ruining the lawn.
