One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for a dual shutoff nozzle that can mitigate a user positioning a bale handle of the nozzle in an intermediate position to achieve fog flow through the nozzle. A nozzle may be devised that allows the bale to be disposed in a fully closed position, and/or disposed in a fully open position, and to switch between a fog spray and a straight tip flow. The nozzle may comprise a first flow control element, and a shutoff component that controls the first control element. The nozzle can comprise a second flow control element that controls flow between a straight nozzle outlet and a fog pattern outlet; and the second flow control element can be controlled by a pattern sleeve using a rotation motion.

A fountain attachment for water effects has an exterior pipe and an interior pipe disposed inside the exterior pipe. An adjustable nozzle of the fountain attachment has a slot size that can be adjusted by a coaxial displacement of the exterior pipe relative to the interior pipe. At least one guide ball is movably arranged between the exterior pipe and the interior pipe and pretensioned by at least one spring. The guide ball interacts with a guide contour for the coaxial displacement by a rotation of the exterior pipe and the interior pipe relative to each other. A pressure element is arranged between the spring and the guide ball.

Wildfire water-supply hose having a QD nozzle with an outer sleeve adapted to engage a firefighter's backpack water bladder's QD connector. The combination male QD nozzle/female QD system permits rapid and easier bottom-up filling of the bladders without dismounting the tank from the firefighter's back, by inserting the QD nozzle into the female QD fitting on the bottom of the backpack bladder. The QD nozzle tip is long enough to open the internal spring-biased shut-off valve in the female QD connector when inserted. Upon opening the supply line valve, water flows into the backpack bladder until full. The supply valve is closed and the QD nozzle is withdrawn from the bladder female QD connector. Rotation of the QD nozzle outer sleeve controls water flow from stream, to spray to mist. The QD nozzle is also used with other types of nozzles on dual fittings having 3-way valves, e.g., fog nozzles.

A continuously variable nozzle system includes a nozzle body (5) with an inlet and an outlet. A conduit is defined between the inlet and the outlet by a series connection of components which includes a flow meter (10). The flow meter (10) has a chamber (83) with internal helical splines (82) that are configured to interact with a spray liquid passing through the chamber (83) and create a cyclone-like effect. A sphere (52) is located inside the chamber (83) for free movement along a circular path (106). A sensor is located outside of the chamber (83) and configured to detect motion of the sphere (52) and generate an output (9) signal in response to detected motion.

The invention relates to a device for injecting a fluid, in particular a cryogenic fluid, the device comprising a fluid feed head and a fluid dispenser body, detachably mounted on said feed head, said feed head comprising a groove for circulating the fluid fed to said body, said groove being closed when the body is mounted on the feed head and said groove being open when the feed head and the body are detached from one another.

The disclosure relates to a print head for applying a coating agent to a component, in particular for applying a paint to a motor vehicle body component, having a nozzle plate, a nozzle in the nozzle plate for dispensing the coating agent, and a valve element movable relative to the nozzle plate for controlling the release of coating agent through the nozzle, the movable valve element closing the nozzle in a closed position, whereas the movable valve element releases the nozzle in an opened position, and having a seal for sealing the nozzle with respect to the movable valve element in the closed position of the valve element. The disclosure provides that the seal is not designed as an elastomer insert on the valve element.

A method of removing a glutinous substance from an applicator comprises removing a plunger before the glutinous substance has solidified; allowing the glutinous substance to solidify inside the applicator; detaching a side cover from a base portion of a first body portion to expose a first sealant plug; severing the first sealant plug from a second sealant plug; severing the first sealant plug from a third sealant plug; detaching a tip portion of the applicator from a second body portion to expose a portion of the second sealant plug; extracting the second sealant plug from the second body portion by pulling the portion of the second sealant plug in a direction along the second body portion; separating the first sealant plug from the base portion of the first body portion; and extracting the third sealant plug from an end-effector interface of the first body portion.

A hand held supersonic air knife with a supersonic variable flow nozzle yields a continuously variable power mass flow rate (CFM) and pressure over a selectable power range, responsive to rotations of the nozzle exterior sleeve or outer nozzle member. The maximum power position identified as one end position and a second end position as the lowest power. The exterior sleeve can be rotated to any axial or circumferential position between start (low) and end (high). The result will be an intermediate power position. Any intermediate position will also be a supersonic nozzle of varying parameters between the start and end positions. Thus, a variable flow supersonic nozzle is provided by the manual sleeve rotation by an operator or a remotely controlled positioning of the sleeve.

A control structure capable of adjusting water volume and controlling water supply contains: a body, a fixer, a valve stem, an adjuster, and a controller. The body includes a water outflow segment for connecting with a watering tool, an accommodation groove for accommodating the fixer and the valve stem. The fixer includes a flexible retaining rib, and the valve stem includes an inlet communicating with the water outflow segment, a fixing rib, an opening communicating with the inlet, and a guiding column. The guiding column has a seal ring. The fixing rib retains with the flexible retaining rib so as to limit a rotation of the adjuster along the body. The adjuster includes a threaded orifice screwing with a screwing section of the controller, an inflow aperture fitting with the guiding column, and a shoulder formed beside the inflow aperture. The controller is coupled with a water supply pipe.

A sanitary fitted element (1) which can be inserted into the water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting and is held releasably there. A characteristic feature of the fitted element (1) according to the invention is that said fitted element has an adjusting device for changing the clear sectional area of flow of the fitted element (1) and/or the discharge rate, which adjusting device is actuable via at least one control element (8) which is arranged actuably on the inflow side of the fitted element (1) and/or on the outflow side thereof. The fitted element (1) according to the invention can be used in a versatile manner in order to reduce the outlay on production and stock.
