A device for applying viscous material to workpieces includes a rotary lance in a holder apparatus and rotatable about a longitudinally-extending rotation axis, the lance having at least one material outlet. A needle valve associated with each material outlet has a longitudinally-extending valve needle used to close each material outlet on a valve seat. Each valve needle has an associated cylinder with a plunger chamber in which a plunger is movable by pressure applied by a fluid, the valve needle being permanently connected to the plunger. A tappet is connected to each plunger, the tappet, at its upper end facing away from the at least one valve seat, being sealingly guided out of the associated plunger chamber. The rotary lance has a measuring element which can be acted upon by the tappet and moved longitudinally; and the holder apparatus has a sensor for determining the measuring element position.

A portable pressurized dual spray hydration reservoir has a container that is cylindrically shaped in a manner similar to many common reusable water bottles. Attached to the lid is a plunger pump assembly with a pump handle that can be used to pump air into the container. The introduction of air via the pump pressurizes the container, causing the liquid inside to be dispersed through a nozzle when a release valve is engaged. Each of two release valves on the lid is associated with a corresponding nozzle. The first release valve disperses liquid through the first nozzle as a stream, and the second release valve disperses liquid through the second nozzle as a spray.

Various embodiments for an adjustable flow nozzle system having a manifold with a plurality of adjustable flow nozzles in which the flow rate of each adjustable flow nozzle may be individually adjusted are described herein.

The present invention relates to the technical field of fluid switches, and more particularly to an bathtub faucet, comprising a housing (10), a first valve (11) which is disposed in the housing in the radial direction of the housing (10) and configured for switching on or switching off the flow of the fluid towards the outlet (100); a first base (12) which is disposed in the housing in the axial direction of the housing (10) and configured for diverting the fluid therethrough, and the first base comprises: first fluid guiding ports (120) disposed along the radial direction of the first base (12) and second fluid guiding ports (121) disposed at two ends of the first base (12) along its axial direction and are respectively communicated with the first fluid guiding port (120), and the first valve (11) is configured to sealingly engage to the first base (12) and communicated with the first fluid guiding ports (120), so that the fluid is controlled by the first valve (11) to be communicated with the second fluid guiding port (121) at the upper end or shut off, wherein the fluid is introduced from the second fluid guiding port (121) at the lower end and then diverted through the first fluid guiding port (120).

A fluid control valve includes a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion, which, when combined, define a first channel, a second channel, a third channel, and a fourth channel. Each of the channels is defined by a combination of at least two of the portions. The fluid control valve further includes a first diverter and a second diverter. The first diverter and the second diverter are each movable between a first position and a second position to selectively control a flow of fluid through at least one of the chambers.

The disclosure concerns an applicator (e.g. printhead) for applying a coating agent (e.g. paint) to a component (e.g. motor vehicle body component), having at least one nozzle row with a plurality of nozzles for dispensing the coating agent in the form of a jet in each case, the nozzles being arranged along the nozzle row and in a common nozzle plane, and having a plurality of actuators for controlled release or closure of the nozzles. The disclosure provides that the individual actuators each have an outer dimension along the nozzle row which is greater than a nozzle distance along the nozzle row.

A fluid spray apparatus includes an inlet and first and second outlets. A first actuator may communicate the inlet with at least one of the outlets. A second actuator also may communicate the inlet with at least one of the outlets. A passage network of the fluid spray apparatus communicates the first and second actuators with the first and second outlets. A diverter structure is disposed in the passage network. The diverter structure includes a first diverter structure arrangement. In the first diverter structure arrangement, the first actuator communicates the inlet with the first outlet and the second actuator communicates the inlet with the second outlet. The diverter structure also includes a second diverter structure arrangement. In the second diverter structure arrangement, the first actuator communicates the inlet with the second outlet and the second actuator communicates the inlet with the first outlet.

The water outlet device comprises a water outlet component and a control mechanism, the water outlet component comprises a spherical chamber, a bottom of the spherical chamber comprises a water outlet hole, a top of the spherical chamber comprises a first water inlet, a side wall of the spherical chamber comprises a second water inlet, discharging water spray from the water outlet hole is controlled by flow rate variations of the first water inlet and the second water inlet, and the control mechanism cooperates with the first water inlet and the second water inlet to steplessly adjust the flow rate variations of the first water inlet and the second water inlet.

Various embodiments for an adjustable flow nozzle system having a manifold with a plurality of adjustable flow nozzles in which the flow rate of each adjustable flow nozzle may be individually adjusted are described herein.

A nozzle assembly comprises a hollow nozzle body having a central bore and a plurality of ports extending through the body from the central bore; and a switching valve assembly disposed in the central bore that directs fluid flow to ports upon application of fluid flow above a predetermined threshold to the inlet and directs fluid flow to different ports upon fluid flow having subsequently dropped below the predetermined threshold and then exceeding the predetermined threshold. The assembly comprises a cylindrical poppet slidably disposed within the central bore, a guide between the nozzle body and the poppet, and a biasing member within the cartridge case between the front portion of the nozzle body and the poppet urging the poppet away from the front portion of the cartridge case.
