Embodiments include individual physical spray nozzles that have passageways inside to combine fluids that flow out of the spray nozzles. The nozzles have at least two valves that are opened and closed in an interleaved manner. The nozzles have multiple outlets. Such nozzles are mounted on a variety of implements including agricultural or industrial spray booms.

A fluid dispersal node is disclosed that includes one or more fluid outlets, an electromechanical valve, one or more hardware processors, hardware memory, a hardware wireless communication module, an antenna, and a fluid-tight, substantially radio frequency (RF) transparent enclosure. The valve is disposed in the node, and controls fluid flow to the outlets. The processors, in turn, control the valve. The wireless module receives instructions for operating the valve and forwards those instructions to one or more of the processors and the memory. The processors, memory, wireless module and antenna are disposed within the RF-transparent housing. In some embodiments, the antenna is disposed on a riser associated with the node outside the enclosure. In other embodiments, the antenna is disposed in a fluid line connected to the node.

A shower device including a housing and a spray engine. The housing defines an inlet for a water supply. The spray engine includes an elastomeric layer providing a spray face and defining an outlet, a support layer having a first surface engaging the elastomeric layer and an opposite, second surface, the support layer defining a plurality of openings between the first surface and the second surface, material of the elastomeric layer extending axially through each of the plurality of openings to the second surface and radially over a portion of the second surface in a plurality of separate and individual flanges, the flanges providing an integrated seal on the second surface of the support layer. The elastomeric layer forms a continuous elastic coating covering the outer surfaces of the front and sides of the spray face and extending from the spray face through the openings to the second surface.

A liquid spraying system having an elongated liquid supply boom and a plurality of spray nozzle assemblies. The spray nozzle assemblies have a compact design with a nozzle body having a liquid inlet and a first spray nozzle carrying liquid outlet section on opposite upper and lower sides, second and third spray nozzle carrying liquid outlet sections disposed in transverse relation to the supply boom; and first and second check valve supporting sections disposed parallel to the liquid supply boom. A first of check valves is operable for controlling liquid flow from the supply boom to one or both of the second and third spray nozzles, and a second check valve is operable for controlling liquid flow from said liquid inlet to said first spray nozzle. The illustrated check valves are operable in response to the pressure of the supply liquid.

An actuator for a spray can. The actuator includes a housing for attachment to an aerosol can covering a stem valve. A finger operating button structure is engaged with the housing for engaging the stem valve. A rotary two-way diverter valve is supported within the housing and rotatably engaged with the finger operating button structure. In a spray position/straw down, the two-way diverter valve directs spray through a first direct spray nozzle. In a second straw position/straw up, to make use of an adjustable straw, the diverter valve is rotated to engage a straw spray passage of the diverter valve in fluid communication with an adjustable rotary spray tip and engaged straw. By rotating the adjustable rotary spray tip to an aligned position, the tip substantially blocks the straw spray passage to provide a drip mode, where drops of fluid exit the straw. A flexible tip may optionally be provided on the straw to enable bending and retention of the flexible tip to a desired position.

A shower device including a housing and a spray engine. The housing defines an inlet for a water supply. The spray engine includes an elastomeric layer providing a spray face and defining an outlet, a support layer having a first surface engaging the elastomeric layer and an opposite, second surface, the support layer defining a plurality of openings between the first surface and the second surface, material of the elastomeric layer extending axially through each of the plurality of openings to the second surface and radially over a portion of the second surface in a plurality of separate and individual flanges, the flanges providing an integrated seal on the second surface of the support layer. The elastomeric layer forms a continuous elastic coating covering the outer surfaces of the front and sides of the spray face and extending from the spray face through the openings to the second surface.

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.

A parameter sensor for an agricultural sprayer is mounted to an applicator and configured to determine liquid parameters of the liquid flowing through the spray nozzle. The parameter sensing module includes one or both of a flow meter and a pressure sensor. The parameter sensor includes sensor circuitry configured to determine a flow rate based on data generated by the flow meter and determine a liquid pressure based on data generated by the pressure sensor.

A sprocket assembly comprising a mount; and a sprocket having an opening for receiving the mount such that the sprocket can rotate around the mount, the sprocket having a plurality of radially extending fluid pathways extending from the opening to a radially distal edge, wherein the mount includes a manifold for fluid to be supplied to the sprocket, the manifold having a fluid exit channel towards the opening of the sprocket such that each radial pathway in the sprocket is in fluid communication with the manifold over only a part of a rotation of the sprocket about the mount.

An improved nozzle assembly for use with a sprinkler body. The nozzle assembly has a nozzle body having a nozzle insert bore and defining a fluid flow path through the nozzle assembly. A nozzle insert is positioned in the nozzle body and retained within the nozzle assembly. The nozzle insert is rotatable between operating positions. In some embodiments, a spring biased detent and detent notches index the nozzle insert at one of a series of operating positions. The nozzle insert is rotatable between the series of operational positions including the IN (or insertion) position, the RUN position, the OFF position, the FLUSH position, and the LINE FLUSH position. In an alternate embodiments the nozzle insert has detents on a circumference of the nozzle insert. A magnet is positioned in or attached to the nozzle insert. A second magnet is positioned in or attached to the body of the nozzle assembly. The detents are configured to align with detent notches in a faceplate of the nozzle assembly body. When the detents are aligned with the detent notches, the attractive force between the two magnets retains the nozzle insert in one of the operating positions in the nozzle insert bore.
