FORMULATION AND DISPENSER SYSTEMS FOR BEVERAGE FOAM TOPPINGS
Formulation and dispenser systems create dairy based toppings for beverages. The dispensers include a container, valve, and an actuator for the valve. The formulations include a liquid product and a propellant. The liquid product includes a certain percentage of milkfat provided, for example, by heavy cream, skim milk, nonfat dry milk, sweeteners, and an emulsifier. The propellant is nitrous oxide or nitrogen.
INSERT ASSEMBLY FOR FOAMING DEVICE
An insert assembly for a foam generating device includes a first insert and a second insert with a channel defined therethrough. Inserts may be formed by two shell halves that are coupleable to one another to define the channel. A plurality of ribs extends along an interior surface of the channel. Pad structures defined by porous media are provided in the channel and gripped by the plurality of ribs. The pads receive cleaning solution passing through the channel and cause foam to be generated by breaking-up the cleaning solution and agitating. The ribs may be arranged horizontally relative to a longitudinal axis of the insert assembly and retain the pads within the device. Inserts may be arranged in series along a longitudinal axis of the foam generating device with the pad structures arranged within the channel.
SPRAY APPLICATOR WITH A STATIONARY MIX CHAMBER
A fast-set, plural component, spray applicator (10) includes a stationary mix chamber (48) to eliminate dynamic metal-to-metal high pressure fluid sealing. The stationary mix chamber (48) mixes the plural components before dispensing the mixed components from the spray applicator (10). The spray applicator includes fluid needles (76, 78) configured to engage and disengage seals to perform the fluid valving. Needles (76, 78) control both fluid and air flow to the stationary mix chamber (48).
PROCESSING LIQUID NOZZLE AND CLEANING APPARATUS
A processing liquid nozzle according to an aspect of the present invention comprises an ultrasonic application part (60), a first supply flow path (71), a discharge flow path (72), and a second supply flow path (73). The ultrasonic application part (60) has a vibrator (61) for generating ultrasonic waves, and a vibrating body (62) joined to the vibrator (61). The first supply flow path (71) supplies a first liquid (L1) to a position contacting the vibrating body (62) of the ultrasonic application part (60). The discharge flow path (72) supplies the first liquid (L1), to which ultrasonic waves have been applied by the ultrasonic application part (60), to a discharge port (74). The second supply flow path (73) is connected to the discharge flow path (72) on the downstream side from the ultrasonic application part (60), and supplies a second liquid (L2) to the discharge flow path (72).
AUTOMATED SPRAY SYSTEM TO PRODUCE AN ELASTOMERIC PAD ON A RAILROAD TIE
The present disclosure provides for an automated spray system (100) to produce an elastomeric pad on a railroad tie. The automated spray system (100) includes a two-component spray system (102) for spraying a two-component reaction mixture to produce the elastomeric pad on the railroad tie. The automated spray system further includes a gantry system (140) having girder (146) that supports the spray applicator.
MOBILE FLUID EXPULSION DEVICE
An apparatus and method are provided for expelling a fluid, including vapor and liquid sprays. A spray is expelled at high velocities from a heated chamber via an exit valve. The chamber includes a flow member or structure that directs and controls the flow of the fluid from an inlet orifice to an outlet orifice along a non-linear path. This prevents the liquid from moving in a wave motion within the chamber if the apparatus is moved.
VALVE AND GASKET TOLERANT TO PRESSURE-DIFFERENTIALS
A valve for a dispenser pump is carried on a circular post or tube of a pump body. A protruding, sealing flange is formed at one end, while the opposing end includes tapering ribs extend along the inner surface of the hollow, tubular valve. In function, the ribs facilitate the passage of make-up air between the inner surface and the post/tube.
INDEPENDENT HEATED HOSE
A plural component dispensing system includes a first heated hose, a second heated hose, a controller, and a dispensing device. The first heated hose and the second heated hose include electrical wires that supply heat to the first and second heated hoses to heat fluid components within the first and second heated hoses. The first and second heated hoses are electrically coupled to the controller and are fluidly coupled to the dispensing device. The controller is configured to control and alternate the electrical power supplied to the first heated hose and the second heated hose to heat the first heated hose independent of the second heated hose.
Insert assembly for foaming device
An insert assembly for a foam generating device includes a first insert and a second insert with a channel defined therethrough. Inserts may be formed by two shell halves that are coupleable to one another to define the channel. A plurality of ribs extends along an interior surface of the channel. Pad structures defined by porous media are provided in the channel and gripped by the plurality of ribs. The pads receive cleaning solution passing through the channel and cause foam to be generated by breaking-up the cleaning solution and agitating. The ribs may be arranged horizontally relative to a longitudinal axis of the insert assembly and retain the pads within the device. Inserts may be arranged in series along a longitudinal axis of the foam generating device with the pad structures arranged within the channel.
SHOWER HEAD
The present invention relates to a shower head which comprises a dispenser for optionally or selectively dispensing a fluid additive such as soap, simultaneously or separately with the water. The invention discloses an innovative mechanism using optimized fluid mechanics for spraying water or cleansing solution for a more hygienic and overall cleansing experience.
