A cleaner nozzle includes: a cylinder extending in an axial direction; and a piston having an ejection port and being displaceable in the axial direction in the cylinder. The piston and the cylinder are provided with respective prevention portions that prevent relative displacement of the cylinder and the piston about an axis by coming into contact with each other.

Provided herein are compounds of the formula:

##STR00001##

in which n is an integer equal to or greater than 1; R.sub.2 is selected from hydrogen and optionally substituted alkyl that is saturated or unsaturated, and branched or unbranched; and R.sub.1, R.sub.3, and R.sub.4, independently for each occurrence, are selected from optionally substituted alkyl that is saturated or unsaturated, and branched or unbranched, wherein compositions comprising the compounds are characterized by particular combinations of values for estolide number, kinematic viscosity, and pour point. Also provided are compositions containing the compounds and methods of making both the compounds and compositions thereof.

A modulating nozzle controller for an agricultural sprayer includes one or more modulating nozzle assemblies each having a spray tip modulating element and an actuator operatively coupled with the spay tip modulating element. The spray tip modulating element controls an orifice profile of a spray tip. A processor system controls the orifice profiles of the one or more modulating nozzle assemblies and includes an agricultural product input to receive a specified field flow rate and a specified droplet size for an agricultural product and a sprayer speed input to receive an agricultural sprayer speed. A modulating nozzle profiler includes an orifice profile generator configured to generate an orifice profile instruction based on the specified field flow rate, the agricultural sprayer speed and the specified droplet size. The spray tip modulating element and the actuator control the orifice profile according to the orifice profile instruction to achieve the specified droplet size.

A sprayhead includes a body having a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The body includes a fluid inlet proximate the first end and a fluid outlet proximate the second end. The sprayhead includes a first disc fixed to the body and a second disc moveably coupled to the body. Rotation of the second disc relative to the first disc causes a first response. Translation of the second disc relative to the first disc causes a second response.

A sprayhead includes a body having a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The body includes a fluid inlet proximate the first end and a fluid outlet proximate the second end. The sprayhead includes a first disc fixed to the body, a second disc moveably coupled to the body, and a pin which defines an axis of rotation for the second disc. The second disc is configured to rotate about the axis of rotation and to translate in a radial direction relative to the axis of rotation while the sprayhead is in use. Rotation of the second disc relative to the first disc causes a first response, whereas translation of the second disc relative to the first disc causes a second response.

Provided are a nozzle device for a plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle and a droplet diameter control method thereof. The nozzle device for a plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle includes a flexible nozzle body, a magnetostrictive sleeve, and a coil. The flexible nozzle body is provided with a nozzle exit, a periphery of the flexible nozzle body is provided with a guide surface at a position corresponding to the nozzle exit, the magnetostrictive sleeve is sleeved on the periphery of the flexible nozzle body and abutted against the guide surface. The coil is wound around the periphery of the magnetostrictive sleeve. When the coil is supplied with a current to generate a magnetic field, the magnetostrictive sleeve can move relative to the guide surface, the guide surface squeezes the nozzle exit to deform the nozzle exit, thus adjusting the size of the nozzle exit.

The invention consists in a device for cleaning a sensor of a motor vehicle.

A piston (2) is able to slide in a circular hollow body (1) having a longitudinal axis (XX) and carrying at a first end a single nozzle (4) for distributing one or more fluids, said piston being hollow to enable the routing to the nozzle of at least one first fluid.

The hollow piston is rendered mobile, between a rest position and a working position, by the effect of a second fluid to take up a working position in which the nozzle is deployed.

The present invention concerns a device for cleaning a sensor of a motor vehicle. The device in accordance with the invention includes means for simultaneous or sequential distribution via a distribution orifice (11) in a distribution nozzle (1) of a first fluid and/or a second fluid separately routed via a first admission channel (2) and/or via a second admission channel (3), respectively, to a common distribution chamber (10) in said distribution nozzle (1). It also includes means for moving said distribution nozzle (1) between a rest position and a deployed position, and these said means for moving the distribution nozzle (1) include means shared with the means for feeding the first admission channel (2) with the first fluid.

A fire sprinkler valve trigger has a body or capsule segmented into opposite segments joined together at a joint by a fusible material with a predetermined and selected melting temperature less than a melting temperature of the opposite segments. An exterior of the body or capsule comprises a layer added to the exterior, and comprising a preselected color corresponding to and designating the melting temperature of the fusible material. The body or capsule, including the joint and the fusible material, being exposed and visible so that the layer on the exterior of the body or capsule is exposed and visible.
