Fluid Control Device and Associated Methods
Embodiments of the present invention are related to a fluid control device for cleaning elevated channels including a top, a bottom, a first side, a second side, and a pair of angled exterior upper surfaces. The top includes a top aperture structured to receive tubing therein and the first side and second side include a spout respectively. The fluid control device is structured to receive fluid into the device top and direct that fluid out the first side and second side at downward side angles.
Vacuum spray apparatus and uses thereof
Spray apparatus and uses thereof are described herein. A vacuum spray nozzle apparatus may include a first tube in fluid communication with a fluid source, a rotor coupled to the tube, a conduit in fluid communication with the passages of the first tube, and a second tube coupled to the conduit, the second tube being in fluid communication with a vacuum source. The rotor is in fluid communication with the pressurized fluid source. The conduit is substantially arched or angled such that an outlet of the conduit is offset a radial distance in a radial direction from the rotor axis, and when pressurized fluid is ejected from the outlet, during use, rotates the conduit. The vacuum spray nozzle apparatus is configured to remove components from a material through the second tube when a pressure of the system is reduced using the vacuum source.
Vehicle wheel cleaning apparatus
A vehicle wheel cleaning apparatus configured to provide cleaning of a vehicle wheel particularly the interior surfaces thereof. The vehicle wheel cleaning apparatus is operable to be coupled to a water source such as but not limited to a pressure wand. A clamping member is included to provide a sealable coupling to the water source. The clamping member has a first portion secured to the water source and a second portion secured to the apparatus. A rotational coupling is provided and is configured to allow rotational movement of a ball assembly. The ball assembly includes a stem member secured to the rotational coupling and a solid silicon ball. Formed in the ball is a channel wherein the channel has divergent portions that are directed to opposing sides of the ball so as to discharge water therefrom.
DIRECTIONAL DRAIN WAND AND METHOD OF DRAIN CLEANING USING THE SAME
A directional drain wand comprises a handle having i) a manually actuated valve assembly, ii) an inlet water coupling on an inlet side of the valve assembly configured to be coupled to a conventional building water line, and iii) a water outlet on an outlet side of the valve assembly; A wand body coupled to the water outlet; and a plurality of wand tips, each wand tip configured to be selectively coupled to the wand body and each wand tip having at least one opening defining a directional spray from the wand body, wherein different wand tips provide different directional sprays, and wherein the wand body and wand tips are configured to fit through openings of a drain cover. A method of cleaning a drain with a drain cover comprises use of the directional drain wand with a desired wand tip.
Pressure Nozzle Support
A pressure nozzle support includes a body. A first and second guide is attached or integral to the body and is formed in a shaped that glides along a vertical surface. A nozzle coupling is attached to the body or integral to the body behind the first and second guides. The nozzle coupling is configured to support a pressure nozzle that provides a stream of pressured fluid in a region between the first and second fixed guide and is positioned at a height above a bottom surface of each of the first and second fixed guides so that a nozzle positioned therein will be at a predetermined distance away from the vertical surface.
SELF-CONTAINED PRESSURE WASHER
A device includes a tank configured to contain a quantity of water; a pump configured to extract water from the tank and to pressurize the water; a connector in fluid communication with the tank and coupled to the tank so as to receive pressurized water produced by the tank and convey the pressurized water through the connector; and a plurality of lances configured to be interchangeably coupled to the connector to receive the pressurized water from the connector and to expel the water, wherein the plurality of lances includes a fog lance including a fog nozzle having an aperture that is sized from 0.35 mm to 0.45 mm, wherein the fog nozzle (a) includes a fog piston configured to cause rotational movement of water passing therethrough, (b) produces a flow rate of less than 0.17 liters per minute, and (c) produces an output that travels at least 1 meter.
SPRAY WAND
A spray wand for use with a chemical or chemical formulation in solid form. The spray wand has a spray wand body having a hollow tube with an angled wand spray end, a spray end selector attached to the angled wand spray end, a wand hose end screen inserted into or otherwise attached to the hollow tube of the spray wand body, and a wand hose end connected to the spray wand body. The wand hose end has a wand hose end valve for control of water flow from a hose. A refill cartridge having a swirl chamber may be attached to the hollow tube. The refill cartridge has external channels or grooves on its external surface as a water rinse feature for the spray wand.
FORMULATION DELIVERY SYSTEM HAVING A SOLID CHEMISTRY
A formulation delivery system for use with an outdoor cleaning device is provided. The formulation delivery system has a composition containing chlorine, wherein the composition is in a form of a solid chemistry and the outdoor cleaning device is a spray wand containing the composition. The chlorine is selected from the group consisting of calcium hypochlorite; 1,3,5-Triazine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione, 1,3-dichloro-, sodium salt, dihydrate (dichlor); 1,3,5-Trichloro-1,3,5-triazinane-2,4,6-trione (trichlor), chloramine-T hydrate, and a combination thereof. A spray wand having a refill cartridge for containing the composition in solid form is also provided.
Solvent compositions for removing petroleum residue from a substrate and methods of use thereof
A method of cleaning highway and road construction equipment is disclosed.
Pressurized Cleaning Apparatus Comprising a Pressure Generation Unit
In a pressurized cleaning apparatus comprising a pressure generation unit for pressurizing a fluid, in particular for supplying a pressurized fluid via a hose attachment, preferably via a hand-held pistol or a spray nozzle, an operating unit is provided that is designed to make it possible to set a maximum operating pressure of the pressure generation unit at which the pressure generation unit is deactivated.
