Mix manifold and valve seal assembly
A mix manifold (16) includes a plurality of valves to control the flow of material therethrough. First and second valves (36a, 36b) are linked for simultaneous actuation. The first and second valves each include valve members (56a, 56b) disposed within and rotatable relative to seal bodies (58a, 58b). The valve members seal against the seal bodies and the seal bodies seal against the manifold. A solvent valve (36c) also includes a valve member (56c) in a seal body (58c). The first and second valves are configured to open only when the solvent valve is closed. The solvent valve is configured to open only when the first and second valves are closed. The solvent valve can rotate between a plurality of positions to control the flow of solvent to flowpaths downstream of the first and second valves.
Systems and methods for spreading particulate material
Systems and methods for managing spreading of particulate material over a surface by a spreader. One step of the method includes receiving a selection of a type of the spreader. An additional step includes receiving a selection of a type of the particulate material to be spread by the spreader. An additional step includes obtaining data indicative of a travel speed of the spreader, with the data being received from a sensor associated with the spreader. An additional step includes determining an operational attribute of the spreader. The determination is based on (i) the type of the spreader, (ii) the type of the particulate material, and (ii) the travel speed of the spreader. A further step includes presenting the operational attribute.
Vehicular work machine and method for vehicular work machine water control
The present disclosure relates to a vehicular work machine (10) that is adapted for handling at least two different interchangeable tools (4). The machine (10) also comprises a user control device (11) and a water supply arrangement (31) that is adapted to distribute water for retaining dust that is created when a tool (4) is used, The water supply arrangement (31) comprises a controllable valve (24) that is arranged to control the flow of the water that is distributed via at least one nozzle (29). The user control device (11) is arranged for selection of a desired tool, where at least one selectable tool is associated with a certain predefined water setting. Each water setting relates to a certain relative flow of distributed water during a certain time that is related to the time said tool (4) is chosen and performing a certain work procedure, and/or to the time said tool (4) is chosen and ready to perform a certain work procedure.
PORTABLE DEVICE FOR INJECTING CONCRETE REPAIR MATERIAL
The present invention provides a portable device for injecting repair material, the portable device comprising: a chassis frame; tanks storing source materials; pumping means pumping the source materials; an injection nozzle mixing the source materials and injecting repair material into cracks; source material supplying means including: operating blocks connected to the pumping means; supplying pipes connected to the operating blocks and supplied with the source materials; transferring pipes connected to the operating blocks and transferring the source materials into the injection nozzle, and a pressure controller connected to the transferring pipe and controlling the source materials, wherein check valves for preventing backflow are installed inside the transferring pipes, wherein by adjusting another check valve connected to the pressure controller, an amount of the repair material for injection is controlled.
Release agent spray system for temporary tape removal machine
A release agent spray system for a vehicle that is used for removing temporary tape from pavement surfaces. The release agent spray system includes a reservoir containing a release agent, a pump for pumping release agent from the reservoir, and a handheld sprayer connected to the reservoir by a fluid conduit or tube and connected electrically to the pump. The handheld sprayer includes an activation switch for activating the pump to deliver release agent from the reservoir to the handheld sprayer.
Single-button water passage switching structure
A single-button water passage switching structure includes a water inlet assembly and a water outlet assembly. The water inlet assembly includes a water inlet body, an operating button, a first control assembly, and a second control assembly. The water inlet body has a first mounting chamber and a second mounting chamber. The first mounting chamber and the second mounting chamber each have a water inlet and two water outlets. The first control assembly is configured to realize a pause mode, a first spray mode or the switching of water passages of the second mounting chamber. The second control assembly is configured to realize the switching of water passages of a second spray mode or a third spray mode. The operating button is configured to link the first control assembly and the second control assembly.
SWITCHING VALVE
A switching valve includes a base having a bottom wall. The switching valve includes a body that couples to the base to define a cavity between the body and the bottom wall. The body includes through holes that are each fluidly coupled to the cavity. The switching valve includes a driven slider set disposed within the cavity and having sub-sliders evenly distributed about the base. The switching valve includes driving rods each movably coupled to one of the through holes of the body. Each driving rod moves in a linear direction relative to the through holes to block or unblock each through hole. Each sub-slider slides in a linear direction responsive to movement of the driving rods. Only one through hole is unblocked at one time.
A DEAD MAN CONTROL ARRANGEMENT
A nozzle arrangement for use in expelling pressurized fluid includes a dead man control. The dead man control has a manually operable control part movable between a non-operating position, which prevents operation of the nozzle arrangement, and an operating position, and biased towards the non-operating position. The manually operable control part is pivotably coupled relative to a nozzle holder of the nozzle arrangement, which extends away from the pivotal coupling substantially towards a distal end of a nozzle part of the nozzle arrangement. The manually operable control part includes a handle part which in the operating position is substantially against and aligned with the nozzle part.
Portable Pressurized On-Demand Water Source
A portable fresh water source that can dispense water under pressure through a hand-held nozzle for utility and recreational uses, such as for rinsing saltwater from marine equipment, washing hands, showering, cleaning dishes, watering plants, or any other activity in which a portable on-demand fresh water source would be useful. The portable fresh water source includes a reservoir, a battery, a pressurizing pump, and a dispensing apparatus. The battery provides power to the pressurizing pump, which in turn provides water pressure to the dispensing apparatus. A version of the dispensing apparatus is a hose with a nozzle. Another version has a hands-free nozzle to allow a user to control the system without touching the device.
SHOWER HEAD
A shower head includes a handle and a head portion. The head portion includes shower holes. The handle includes an upstream bubble generator that generates minute bubbles in water. The head portion includes a downstream bubble generator that generates minute bubbles in water in the same manner as the upstream bubble generator. The upstream bubble generator includes a constriction and a tapered portion. The downstream bubble generator has a swirling flow mode. Since minute bubbles are generated on the upstream and downstream sides, the amount of minute bubbles mixed in water becomes larger. This allows for showering by effectively using the function of minute bubbles.
