Machine for removing substrate material, for washing, and for drying parts produced by a 3-D printer
A machine for processing a part produced by a 3-D printer. The machine includes a housing having a working chamber defined therein. A support structure is disposed at the bottom of the working chamber for supporting the part. The structure has at least one opening defined therein. A spray header is disposed along at least a portion of the perimeter of the working chamber. A pump is configured and arranged to convey a fluid at varying pressures through the spray header. The fluid contacts the part and then passes through the opening in the structure where it flows to the bottom of the working chamber to a fluid outlet.
CONSTRUCTION SITE TOOL CLEANING SINK SYSTEM
A construction site tool cleaning system. A construction sink is supported by support legs. A drip pant is preferably positioned under the support legs and under the construction sink. Construction sink stabilizers are connected to the support legs and support the construction sink. A construction sink tool support screen covers the top of the construction sink. An elevated pump section is inside the construction sink and is at a higher level than the bottom of the construction sink. A water pump is positioned inside the elevated pump section. A filter screen and filter are positioned on top of the elevated pump section and surround the water pump. A flexible hose is connected to the water pump and a nozzle is connected to the flexible hose.
Method for Removing Substrate Material, For Washing, and For Drying Parts Produced By a 3-D Printer
A method for removing substrate material from a part produced by a 3-D printer. The method includes providing a housing having a working chamber defined therein. The method further includes providing a spray header disposed along at least a portion of the perimeter of the working chamber. A pump is configured and arranged to convey a fluid at varying pressures through the spray header. Fluid contacts a part inserted into the working chamber and then flows to the bottom of the working chamber to a fluid outlet.

Machine for Removing Substrate Material from Parts Produced by a 3-D Printer
A machine for washing and removing substrate material for parts produced by a 3D printer. The machine includes a housing having a working chamber and a disposal chamber. The machine has at least one inlet in fluid communication with the working chamber. The disposal chamber is disposed adjacent to the working chamber. A dividing wall is disposed between the working chamber and the disposal chamber. A pump conveys a working fluid to the at least one inlet in the working chamber. The disposal chamber and the working chamber are disposed in fluid communication via a passageway such that working fluid passes from the working chamber to the disposal chamber. The machine may also include an ultrasonic generator for generating ultrasonic vibrations within the working chamber and a heater for warming the working fluid.

Pneumatic pressure pulse cleaning machine
A pneumatic pressure pulse cleaning machine includes a container body, which has a rear side to which a container cover is rotatably mounted and also has an interior space in which a pipe assembly that includes pipes connected together to form a grating configuration is received. The pipe assembly has a plurality of through holes formed therein and facing upwards. A support board is received in the interior space and arranged above the pipe assembly so that an article disposition zone is provided in the container body above the support board. The pipe assembly includes a joint, which is connectable with a tube for connection with a pneumatic pressure source. Articles to be washed are positioned on the support board. The pneumatic pressure source is activated to generate pneumatic pressure pulses that are ejected through the through holes to impinge and thus clean the articles.
APPARATUS AND SYSTEM FOR CLEANING PAINT MASKING DEVICES
A paint removal apparatus for cleaning paint from masking devices includes a support base having a plurality of engagement features that are each configured to securely engage at least one paint masking device. A spray nozzle is aimed in a fixed direction toward the support base and configured for spraying a pressurized stream of water at a desired velocity that removes paint from an exterior surface of at least one of the masking devices engaged at the support base. The support base is configured to successively move the masking devices engaged at the engagement features into the pressurized stream of water, such as to provide a generally continuous cleaning operation of masking devices. During movement or rotation of the support base, an exposed portion of the support base may extend from a spray enclosure for removing cleaned plugs from and loading painted plugs onto such an exposed portion.
Coral dipping tank
A dipping tank includes a pump, a container, a fitting, and a plate which is used to place objects, such as corals, to be dipped. The pump draws fluid from inside the container and discharges it into the container through the fitting. The fitting includes two flexible hoses, one with a propulsive nozzle and the other with one or more dipping nozzles. The propulsive nozzle produces a jet which impinges upon the blades protruding from the bottom side of the plate causing the plate to rotate. The dipping nozzles eject jets which are used to spray and thereby dip the objects. Flexible hoses are configured so as to provide movements in 6 degrees of freedom for the nozzles. Flexible hoses may also further comprise valves to control fluid flow through said hoses.
Portable Parts Washer
A portable parts washer for cleaning mechanical parts that includes a washer body having an upper portion, a lower portion, and a wash basin formed within the upper portion having inner sidewalls, a floor panel and at least one drain aperture. The portable parts washer also includes an in-use reservoir formed within the lower portion of the washer body and having a bottom panel spaced from the floor panel and outer sidewalls, and which is configured to receive cleaning fluid from the wash basin through the drain aperture when the floor panel is in a substantially horizontal orientation. The portable parts washer further includes a storage reservoir formed within the upper and lower portions and which is configured to contain the cleaning fluid from the in-use reservoir when the floor panel is rotated to a substantially vertical orientation.
