MULTI-FLUID SPRAY SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AGRICULTURAL PRODUCT APPLICATION
An agricultural multi-fluid spray system includes a plurality of working fluid sources and a plurality of lines carrying a plurality of working fluids from the plurality of working fluid sources. A first spray nozzle has a plurality of inlets coupled to the plurality of lines and has a plurality of outlets selectively coupled to the plurality of inlets. The first spray nozzle has at least one control valve operatively positioned between the plurality of inlets and the plurality of outlets. The first spray nozzle is configured to segregate the plurality of working fluids into a plurality of fluid paths within the first spray nozzle upstream of the at least one control valve. The at least one control valve is configured and controlled to selectively route the plurality of fluid paths to one or more of the plurality of outlets.
HIGH PRESSURE FLUID SPRAY NOZZLE INCORPORATING A FLOW CONTROLLED SWITCHING VALVE
A nozzle assembly comprises a hollow nozzle body having a central bore and a plurality of ports extending through the body from the central bore; and a switching valve assembly disposed in the central bore that directs fluid flow to ports upon application of fluid flow above a predetermined threshold to the inlet and direct fluid flow to different ports upon fluid flow having subsequently dropped below the predetermined threshold and then exceeding the predetermined threshold. The assembly comprises a cylindrical poppet slidably disposed within the central bore, a guide between the nozzle body and the poppet, and a biasing member within the cartridge case between the front portion of the nozzle body and the poppet urging the poppet away from the front portion of the cartridge case.
Delivery device of a water jet with safety valve
A delivery device of a water jet comprises a delivery chamber and a safety valve suitable for reducing the water pressure in the delivery chamber when the water pressure exceeds a preset pressure threshold. The safety valve comprises a hollow housing body, a valve cartridge inserted tightly into the hollow housing body, the cartridge defining a valve seat for the passage of water and an obturator movable between a closed position, wherein the obturator closes said valve seat, and an open position, wherein the obturator opens said valve seat when a pressure greater than the preset pressure threshold value acts on said obturator. A support body is connected in a removable way to the hollow housing body and has a bottom wall on which the valve cartridge rests and which is penetrated by through-openings for the evacuation to the exterior of the water present in the hollow housing body.
Integrated shower rinse system
Aspects of the disclosed technology provide solutions for improving a shower head with a rinse function and in particular, for improving the safety of a shower head with a rinse jet function. An integrated shower rinse system features a handle equipped with both a shower head and a rinse jet. The system incorporates an inlet for water reception. By default, water flows through the shower head upon initial system activation. A button on the handle, when pressed, diverts the water flow to the rinse jet. Additionally, a switch on the handle allows users to choose various nozzle settings for the rinse jet. An internal spring mechanism ensures that in the absence of water, the rinse jet activation button remains in the off position. As a result, water initially flows through the shower head each time the system is activated, requiring manual button engagement for rinse jet operation.
LIQUID DISPENSING SYSTEM COMPRISING AN UNITARY DISPENSING NOZZLE
A liquid dispensing system for dispensing two or more liquids of different composition, viscosity, solubility and/or miscibility at high filling speeds into a container through a unitary dispensing nozzle to improve homogeneous mixing of such liquids, while said nozzle is an integral piece free of any movable parts.
THIN SHOWER HEAD AND WATERWAY SWITCHING DEVICE
This disclosure provides a thin shower head and a waterway switching device. The water switching device includes a body, a switching shaft disposed in the body and a driving mechanism. The body has a hollow portion and a water inlet end and a water outlet end. the water outlet end has two waterways in communication with the hollow portion. The switching shaft includes a water-division section located in the hollow portion and a traction section extending out of the water outlet end. The driving mechanism is disposed outside the body, for driving the switching shaft to reciprocate in an axial direction, such that the switching shaft is switched between at least two switching positions, wherein at least one waterway is opened correspondingly at each of the switching positions. The driving mechanism includes a driving member and a one-way rotational device for connecting the driving member to the switching shaft.
Adjustable flow limiter for a mixing faucet and a method for adjusting the flow
A flow limiter (1) for setting a maximum flow of water at an outlet from a mixing faucet, wherein the flow limiter in the axial direction comprises a seat (3 a, 3 b) which along its periphery is provided with an annular wall (8a, 8b) and has flow channels (7) arranged inside and along said wall (8a, 8b), an actuator (30, 50) which is rotatably arranged on the seat (3a, 3b), a regulating device (20a, 20b) in the form of a body with a circumferential envelope surface (22, 43) facing the inside of said annular wall (8a, 8b), wherein the actuator (30, 50) comprises means (34a, 34b) for moving the regulating device (20a, 20b) in the axial direction, and wherein an annular cavity is formed between walls formed by the envelope surface (22, 43) of the regulating device and the wall (8a, 8b) of the seat, in which annular cavity an O-ring (24) is arranged, wherein one of the walls (43, 8a) of the annular cavity has open axially extending grooves (9, 44) with a cross-section area increasing in the direction of flow, whereby the O-ring (24) in its plane is adapted to slidably connect to said grooves (9, 44) and to adopt one of predetermined positions in the axial direction along said grooves (9, 44) upon rotation of the actuator (30, 50), and wherein said position corresponds to a maximum flow determined by a cross-section area for channels which is limited by the O-ring (24) and the walls of the grooves (9, 44) in the plane of the O-ring (24).
