An electrostatic device that includes: an air flow regulator system including a pressure regulator and an air flow regulator; a liquid flow regulating system including a set of restrictors; an electrostatic system including an electrostatic emission antenna and an insulating hood of the electrostatic emission antenna; an air-liquid nozzle that is separated from the electrostatic emission antenna; a tank; a positive displacement pump and a low-wetting electrostatic application method.

A preform coating device is provided with: a rotational holding part that horizontally holds a preform and rotates the preform about the axis of the preform, and that grasps a spout of the preform; a conveyance part that conveys the preform by moving the rotational holding part; a dispenser that discharges a coating liquid toward the preform; a preform support part that supports the bottom-side end of the cylindrical barrel of the preform while the dispenser is discharging the coating liquid; and a spout support part that supports the outer circumferential surface of the spout of the preform while the dispenser is discharging the coating liquid.

Described herein is a bounce-reducing cover assembly that is positioned on the top of the cover and riser of a sprinkler to achieve a similar golf ball bounce characteristic as typical golf course turf. The cover assembly has a top surface that is composed of a plurality of vertical fingers or posts, which help achieve the desired bounce characteristics with a golf ball. Specifically, these fingers are flexible and provide some “give” so as to absorb some of the force from an incoming golf ball. Depending on the durometer of the material, size of the fingers, and spacing of the fingers, different bounce characteristics can be achieved.

An electrostatic fluid delivery system is configured to deliver fluid, such as a disinfectant fluid, onto a surface by electrically charging the fluid and forming the fluid into a mist, fog, plume, or spray that can be directed onto a surface, such as a surface to be cleaned. The system atomizes the fluid using a high-pressure fluid stream and passes the fluid through an electrode of a nozzle assembly to charge droplets of the atomized fluid.

The invention provides a telescoping wand assembly for use in dispensing liquid from a container, including a trigger module extending along a longitudinal axis between proximal and distal ends. The trigger module includes a tubular handle member, a user accessible trigger positioned externally of the tubular handle member that is selectively movable between first and second positions, a hose positioned within the tubular handle member and adapted to transport liquid from the container, and a valve actuating member that is selectively, movably actuable by movement of the trigger between its first and second positions. A stationary frame assembly provides rigidity and contact points for a telescopically movable tube assembly that extends from the trigger module. A shut-off valve and nozzle are positioned at the distal end of the wand assembly and movement of the shut-off valve is controlled by the trigger and translated by way of the tube assembly.

A modular irrigation controller has a robust ground path with high conductivity that can accommodate lightning induced power surges on field valve wires and common wires that are connected to a plurality of station modules. Sensitive electronic components in the station modules are thereby protected from damage. The robust ground path extends from conductors on circuit boards within the station modules through captive mounting screws to a metallic backplane and then through metallic grounding brackets within a pedestal enclosing the modules and the backplane. The grounding brackets are in turn grounded to both an earth ground stake and to a ground wire associated with the incoming one hundred and ten volt AC power.

Aspects of the present invention provide a method and an apparatus for delivering a solution to a region of a human body, and washing, cleaning, and drying the region. The apparatus include a toilet seat assembly, and a spraying nozzle assembly. The spraying nozzle assembly includes one or more spray nozzle units having one ore more spray nozzle bodies that are retractable and adapted to deliver the solution, a first driving motor being connected to the one or more spray nozzle units and adapted for moving the one ore more spray nozzle bodies in retracting-and-extending motion, and a second driving motor being connected to the one or more spray nozzle unit and adapted for moving the one or more spray nozzle units in three-dimensional circular rotational motion. The one or more spray nozzle units may further include one or more nozzle jet head openings.

Aspects of the present invention provide a method for using an apparatus to deliver medicine and to wash, clean, and dry a region of a human body. The apparatus include a toilet seat assembly and a medicine delivery assembly. In addition, the apparatus may include a drying nozzle assembly and/or a spraying nozzle assembly. The medicine delivery assembly may include one or more medicine storage cartridges and/or one or more medicine base units, each medicine base unit includes at least a cartridge unit and at least a cartridges slot, wherein the cartridge slot is adapted to match with a medicine storage cartridge. The medicine delivery assembly may include a medicine delivery nozzle, which can be coupled to a spraying nozzle assembly, or may be operated by itself with a medicine delivery nozzle. Finally, the medicine delivery assembly can be controlled by one or more control units.

Aspects of the present invention provide a method and a remote-controlled system for delivering and applying water, medicines, cleaning solutions to a region of the body that may not otherwise be easily accessible (e.g., to the perianal region). The system is designed to enable the users to relax and enjoy on a bidet seat system that can apply water, medicines, cleaning solutions at a desirable angle that they can control, while the user is in a relatively comfortable and efficacious position for the treatment. The apparatus include a toilet seat assembly, a drying nozzle assembly, a spraying nozzle assembly, and a medicine delivery assembly. A method and apparatus is provided for using and delivering medicine, washing, cleaning, and drying a region of a human body.
