An indoor gardening appliance includes a grow module that is rotatably mounted within a grow chamber and that defines pod apertures for receiving a plurality of plant pods. A hydration system includes a nozzle assembly for selectively discharging a nutrient mixture from a mixing tank to hydrate plants within the grow chamber. The nozzle assembly includes a hydraulic cylinder including a piston positioned within a cylindrical chamber. An actuator moves the piston to a fully retracted position to draw in enough nutrient mixture for a single hydration cycle and then moves to a fully extended position to discharge the nutrient mixture. An intake check valve prevents undesirable backflow into the mixing tank and a discharge check valve prevents undesirable backflow into the cylindrical chamber.

The present disclosure provides an atomization device, an aroma diffusion instrument, and an operation method. The atomization device includes an atomization chamber, a mixing chamber, a container, a repair cavity, a suction pump, and a gas pump; the atomization chamber is communicated with the mixing chamber through an atomization port; the suction pump is communicated with the container and the mixing chamber; the suction pump is used for pumping a substance in the container to the mixing chamber or pumping a substance in the mixing chamber back to the container; impurities in the mixing chamber can also be discharged from an opening of the repair cavity; the gas pump is connected with the mixing chamber to convey high-pressure gas to the mixing chamber; the high-pressure gas is used for atomizing liquid of the mixing chamber towards the atomization chamber; and the atomization chamber is provided with a mist outlet.

A method of agglomerating bulk ceramic fibers includes mixing the bulk ceramic fibers with water to form wet fibers; mixing the wet fibers with a binder including an organic binder and/or an inorganic binder to form agglomerates; and drying the agglomerates. The agglomerates may be mixed with additional binders and fillers to form an insulating mix that may be used to insulate a furnace or other heat source. A foaming nozzle may be used for the application of agglomerates. A foaming agent and water are air atomized within the foaming nozzle and the resulting foam is mixed into pneumatically conveyed agglomerates, which result results in a lightweight refractory material layer on a target substrate.

A control unit performs control such that, in a state where water does not flow into a water path, an on-off valve is opened to supply air from a second air path to the water path and a mixed solution path to discharge residual water and thereafter supply of the air is stopped.

An embodiment gas treatment system (10) includes a gas treatment chamber (12). The gas treatment chamber (12) is separated into (i) a chemical agent chamber (14) adapted to store a liquid chemical agent and (ii) a gas/chemical agent mixing chamber (18) in fluid communication with the chemical agent chamber (14). The system (10) includes an atomising assembly (20) operatively associated with the gas/chemical agent mixing chamber (18) and a pressurised gas supply assembly (22) in operative fluid communication with the atomising assembly (20). The system also includes a chemical agent supply assembly (24) to provide fluid communication between the chemical agent chamber (14) and the atomising assembly (20) wherein the atomising assembly (20) is operatively adapted to atomise liquid chemical agent into a stream of pressurised gas fed from the pressurised gas supply assembly (22) into the gas/chemical mixing agent chamber (18).

This disclosure provides methods and systems that comprise a misting unit for atomizing a water-based or solvent-based composition, such as a liquid composition thereof to create a mist. Further, the disclosed methods and systems may include introducing, through an airtight aperture in a pipe or substrate, the mist into the pipe or the substrate. Further still, the disclosed methods and systems may include propelling, by an inert or non-inert gas, the mist onto at least a portion of the interior surface of a substrate connected to or integrated with the pipe within a closed system. The misting unit may be removably or irremovably connected to the pipe for optionally removably connecting to the substrate.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for producing fruit having improved quality which has fewer restrictions on place and the like and can be more casually used. This method for producing fruit having improved quality uses nanobubble water for a plant body belonging to fruit trees.

A spraying system for applying an application fluid having an induction manifold, a hose reel subsystem, a pump element disposed between the manifold and the hose reel subsystem, an application fluid subsystem having a plurality of reservoirs and associated valves, a fluid regulating device coupled to an input end of the induction manifold for regulating the amount of a first fluid supplied thereto, a timer element coupled to the fluid regulating device for selectively activating the fluid regulating device via an activation signal, and a controller for controlling operation of the timer element. The controller generates a control signal in response to user instructions and in response to the control signal the timer element generates the activation signal. In response to the activation signal, the fluid regulating element ceases introduction of the first fluid into the manifold and introduces a second fluid therein.
