FLUID CARTRIDGE FOR A PLURAL COMPONENT SPRAYER
A fluid cartridge for a plural component sprayer is configured to receive first and second component materials and purge air from the sprayer and provide the first and second component materials and purge air to a mix chamber for spraying. The fluid cartridge includes a cartridge body, material flowpaths extending from a second end to a cartridge bore, and a purge path extending from the second end to the cartridge bore. Fluid checks are disposed in the material flowpaths and purge path to prevent backflow out of the fluid cartridge. Side seals are disposed in the material paths and are pre-loaded to extend into the cartridge bore and engage a mix chamber within the cartridge bore.
SPRAY GUN
There is provided a spray gun configured to atomize a liquid by using a compressed gas. The spray gun comprises: a gas cap configured to inject the compressed gas; and a liquid nozzle configured to inject the liquid, wherein the gas cap comprises a center gas flow path that has an opening provided in a neighborhood of the liquid nozzle; and multiple pairs of side face gas ports provided outside of the opening, each pair of the side face gas ports being placed at positions symmetric to each other across a center of the liquid nozzle and being directed toward a center in an injecting direction of the liquid nozzle, and wherein control is made to individually regulate a pressure of the gas to be injected from each pair of the side face gas ports.
FAN-SHAPED AIR SUCTION SPRAY NOZZLE AUTOMATICALLY ADJUSTING AIR SUCTION SPEED
A fan-shaped air suction spray nozzle automatically adjusting an air suction speed is provided in the present invention, which includes a spray nozzle body and a liquid channel, the spray nozzle body being provided with a liquid channel in communication with a nozzle hole, and further includes a pressure groove and an air intake channel, wherein an inlet section of the liquid channel is in communication with the pressure groove, and the air intake channel is in communication with the liquid channel after penetrating through the pressure groove; an air intake orifice plate is installed in the pressure groove through an elastic damping apparatus, and a change of the pressure at an inlet of the liquid channel causes the air intake orifice plate to move between the pressure groove and the air intake channel; the air intake orifice plate is provided with several through holes of the same or different sizes, which are configured to change the air intake volume in the liquid channel as the air intake orifice plate moves in the pressure groove.
Two fluid spray equipment
A two fluid spray equipment includes: two fluid nozzles of a plurality of systems; a water supply apparatus for supplying the pressurized water at common pressure; a compressed air supply apparatus for supplying the compressed gas at common pressure; and a plurality of spray control units for controlling spray of the two fluid nozzle of each of the plurality of systems, wherein each of the plurality of spray control units includes a water pressure control unit for performing control to reduce pressure of the pressurized water supplied from the water supply apparatus based on a spray command value without pressurization, and an air pressure control unit for controlling pressure of the compressed gas supplied from the compressed air supply apparatus based on the spray command value.
LAWN OR GARDEN MAINTENANCE DEVICE AND RELATED SYSTEM
A lawn maintenance device that is calibrated in the field by a user through a mobile software app to irrigate and/or fertigate one or more arbitrary geometrical areas defined by the user. The device includes a motorized rotary drive mechanism for controlling the rotational angle of a pivotable nozzle and a flow control valve for controlling water jet throw distance. At least one container is integrated into the device for dispensing fertilizer, herbicide and other such concentrated lawn or garden solutions. The device communicates with and is controlled by a web server which dynamically computes a watering path and triggers the device to commence irrigation over the computed path based on prevailing local environmental conditions and/or user settings.
Fluid cartridge for a plural component sprayer
A fluid cartridge for a plural component sprayer is configured to receive first and second component materials and purge air from the sprayer and provide the first and second component materials and purge air to a mix chamber for spraying. The fluid cartridge includes a cartridge body, material flowpaths extending from a second end to a cartridge bore, and a purge path extending from the second end to the cartridge bore. Fluid checks are disposed in the material flowpaths and purge path to prevent backflow out of the fluid cartridge. Side seals are disposed in the material paths and are pre-loaded to extend into the cartridge bore and engage a mix chamber within the cartridge bore.
SPRAY GUN
A spray gun includes a casing, a cup, a spray nozzle, and a pump. The pump is provided in the casing and has a spray chamber in communication with the cup. The cup includes a cup housing and a flexible cup body provided in the cup housing. A venting structure communicating the cup with an outer environment is provided on the pump. The cup housing is provided with a hollow portion, such that the flexible cup body is manually squeezable to expel air inside the flexible cup body out via the venting structure.
Plural component mixing system
A plural component mixing system includes an automatic balance feature to balance the pressure of two or more components as they are mixed. The pressures or flow rates of the two components are monitored. If there is a difference in pressure or flow rate greater than a specified amount, a bleed valve is opened for a short period of time to balance the flows. A computer with a touch screen is used to set the pressure and flow rate differences that trigger the bleed, and to set the time period for the bleed.
Fan-shaped air suction spray nozzle automatically adjusting air suction speed
A fan-shaped air suction spray nozzle automatically adjusting an air suction speed is provided in the present invention, which includes a spray nozzle body and a liquid channel, the spray nozzle body being provided with a liquid channel in communication with a nozzle hole, and further includes a pressure groove and an air intake channel, wherein an inlet section of the liquid channel is in communication with the pressure groove, and the air intake channel is in communication with the liquid channel after penetrating through the pressure groove; an air intake orifice plate is installed in the pressure groove through an elastic damping apparatus, and a change of the pressure at an inlet of the liquid channel causes the air intake orifice plate to move between the pressure groove and the air intake channel; the air intake orifice plate is provided with several through holes of the same or different sizes, which are configured to change the air intake volume in the liquid channel as the air intake orifice plate moves in the pressure groove.
MIX CHAMBER FOR A PLURAL COMPONENT SPRAYER
A mix chamber for a plural component sprayer is configured to receive first and second component materials and emit a spray of a resulting plural component material. The mix chamber includes a chamber body extending between a first end and a second end and including flat lateral sides. A ramp feature is disposed proximate the first end and is configured to contact and push first and second side seals, respectively, away from a body axis as the mix chamber shifts in a first direction through a cartridge bore to increase a gap between the first side seal and the second side seal such that the first side seal engages the first flat lateral side and the second side seal engages the second flat lateral side.
