Dishwasher including rack corner sprayers

A dishwasher utilizes multiple rack-mounted corner sprayers disposed in corners defined between a side wall and front and rear walls of a dishwasher rack to direct fluid inwardly from the corners to wash utensils supported by the rack. The corner sprayers are in fluid communication with one another by a fluid channel that extends along the side wall of the rack, and an inlet port coupled to the first corner sprayer conveys fluid to each of the corner sprayers.

Method and apparatus for improved electrospray emitter lifetime

A method for cleaning an electrospray emitter of a mass spectrometer, comprises: (a) changing a mode of operation of the electrospray emitter from a stable jet mode of operation to a dripping mode or a pulsating mode of operation by lowering a magnitude of a voltage applied between an counter electrode and the electrospray emitter; (b) causing a cleaning solvent to flow through the electrospray emitter at least until a droplet of the cleaning solvent forms on an exterior surface of the electrospray emitter while operating the electrospray emitter in the dripping mode of operation; and (c) causing the droplet to dislodge from the electrospray emitter exterior.

Fluid Control Device and Associated Methods

Embodiments of the present invention are related to a fluid control device for cleaning elevated channels including a top, a bottom, a first side, a second side, and a pair of angled exterior upper surfaces. The top includes a top aperture structured to receive tubing therein and the first side and second side include a spout respectively. The fluid control device is structured to receive fluid into the device top and direct that fluid out the first side and second side at downward side angles.

A spray head includes a nozzle, a sealing gasket, a first nut, and a screw. The nozzle includes an inlet portion, an outlet portion extending from an end of the inlet portion along an axial direction, and a first through hole penetrating the inlet portion and the outlet portion along the axial direction. The first through hole defines an opening on a surface of the outlet portion facing away from the inlet portion. The opening is rectangular. The sealing gasket is sleeved on the inlet portion. The first nut is sleeved on the nozzle and receiving the sealing gasket. The screw is located on a side of the sealing gasket facing away from the outlet portion and is engaged with the first nut. A second through hole penetrates the screw communicating with the first through hole. The disclosure also provides a cleaning device having the spray head.

Method of emitting a water jet and nozzle element for performing the method

A method of emitting a water jet includes emitting a water pressure between 50 and 200 bar through a nozzle element that has a cylindrical nozzle body forming a flow passage for the water jet, and at least one nozzle opening emitting a jet stream to the surrounding area whose smallest dimension is not more than 0.15 mm, and wherein a fan jet is created on the surface to be treated at a working distance of about 80 mm between the nozzle opening and the surface to be treated. A handpiece is disclosed that includes a nozzle element that may be accommodated in the handpiece and may, in part, provide for emitting a water jet as disclosed.
