IN-CAR ENVIRONMENT PURIFICATION DIFFUSER
An in-car environment purification diffuser includes a spray cover combined with a tank cover and covered on a slot of a water tank. The oscillation space in the water tank is formed with a tubular protrusion of an air flow channel. When the diffuser is dumped, the liquid in the water tank is less likely to seep into the diffuser or the car. The oscillator mounted in the water tank is coated with an acid-and-alkaline-resistant coating. The user can add safe cleaning liquid such as alkaline hydroxide ionized water into the oscillation space and atomize it as deodorization, sterilization, disinfection, etc. for the car's environmental purification. A light-permeable spray cover with an umbrella-shaped panel is to shield the tank cover. The spray cover is like a paper umbrella with a decorative effect. The umbrella-shaped panel with spray effect is decorative and can create a better atmosphere in the car.
PAINT DISPENSING METHOD AND APPARATUS INVOLVING A VIBRATING MEMBRANE
A fluid dispensing apparatus and liquid container with a fluid dispensing apparatus are provided. The fluid dispensing apparatus includes a valve body defining a bore that extends at least partially through a valve body, and an adaptor including a piercing member positioned to pierce a pierceable membrane enclosing the liquid container. The adaptor also includes a releasable fastener that cooperates with a portion of the liquid container to releasably couple the valve body to the liquid container. A liquid droplet production apparatus of the fluid dispensing apparatus controls a discharge of the liquid from the liquid container. The liquid droplet production apparatus includes a perforate membrane, and an actuator that is selectively operable to vibrate the perforate membrane and cause liquid droplets to be emitted from the perforate membrane and projected generally away from the liquid container.
Acoustic wave microfluidic devices with increased acoustic wave energy utilisation
