A cleaning mechanism for spray and aerosol nozzles comprising a cap and a plurality of cleaning members where the cleaning members are affixed to the internal surface of the cap in one or more different arrangements covering at least a portion of each of the vertical height of the internal surface and the internal circumference. The cleaning mechanism may be configured as fixed within a cap or as a standalone cap attachment that is inserted and/or detached from the cap for use. The cleaning members may comprise brush members, plastic members, or members made of other materials.

Systems and methods for inspecting and cleaning a nozzle of a dispenser are disclosed. The systems may include a platform supporting a cleaning substrate. The cleaning substrate may have a plurality of hook structures configured to remove a material from the nozzle. The systems may also include a camera configured to capture an image of the nozzle and a controller configured to control the system. The methods may include providing a cleaning substrate having a plurality of hook structures, and moving at least one of the nozzle and the cleaning substrate relative to the other to remove a material from the nozzle. The methods may also include capturing an image of the nozzle after dispensing with a camera, processing the image to generate a value, utilizing the value to determine if the nozzle should be cleaned, and if the determination is that the nozzle should be cleaned, cleaning the nozzle.

A nozzle for water jet equipment and a method of use thereof. The nozzle has a body including a base with a shaft extending outwardly therefrom. The shaft is inserted through a bore of a sleeve that rotatable about the shaft. The base and shaft define a bore therein. At least one opening is defined in the shaft and one or more grooves are milled into the shaft's exterior surface. Each opening places the body's bore in fluid communication with one of the grooves and the sleeve's bore. Water flowing through the body's bore will flow through each opening, into the associated groove and into a space between the shaft and sleeve. The grooves create turbulence in water in this space and thereby reduce leakage from the nozzle. The shaft terminates in a conical section usable as a battering ram to break up blockages in pipes during cleaning operations.

A holster for a spray gun is provided. The holster is configured to hold a spray gun in place when not in use. The holster has a reservoir body that defines an open-topped chamber. A fluid may be held inside the chamber, and a nozzle of the spray gun held by the holster may submerge in this fluid. The nozzle being submerged in the fluid of the holster can prevent hardening, thickening or drying of any material left over on or in the spray gun nozzle after use.

The present invention relates to a wet type dust collector using electrospray and a vortex, the dust collector having a cyclonic structure and removing dust contained in exhaust gas by spraying fine droplets that are generated when high voltage is applied to the dust collector. More particularly, the present invention relates to a wet type dust collector using electrospray and a vortex, the dust collector including: a cylinder having an exhaust gas intake pipe for guiding exhaust gas containing granular pollutants at a predetermined position on the outer side, and forming an empty space; a hollow cone tapered downward, connected to the bottom of the cylinder at the top, and having a liquid discharge port at the bottom; a lid through which a hollow cylindrical gas discharge pipe is disposed to discharge gas with granular substances removed to the outside and, that is disposed on top of the cylinder; a positive (+) lead wire connected to the cylinder; and a negative () lead wire connected to the gas discharge pipe, in which a liquid container having one or more liquid spray ports is disposed on the gas discharge pipe.

To provide: an atomizer that allows a sample liquid to be made into minute droplets stably and that inhibits clogging of an aerosol gas outlet by salting out or the like when atomizing a sample containing a high density matrix; a sample introduction unit that includes the atomizer; and an analysis device. An atomizer includes: a liquid supply tube that has a first channel in which a liquid can circulate and that has, on one end, an outlet to spray the liquid; and a gas supply tube that encloses the liquid supply tube with a gap therebetween, that has a second channel in which a gas can circulate, and that has, on one end, an outlet to spray the gas. The second channel is defined by the outer circumferential face of the liquid supply tube and the inner circumferential face of the gas supply tube and has a narrow portion upstream of the outlet.
