An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes a sprayer configured to generate a pressurized fluid flow and a nozzle configured to receive the pressurized fluid from the sprayer and to generate a spray fan to apply the fluid to a surface. The UAV includes sensors and a control unit to control both flight of the UAV and spraying by the sprayer. The fluid can be stored onboard the UAV in a reservoir or can be remotely stored and pumped to the UAV. The UAV control unit can be preloaded with a spray plan and a flight plan, or the UAV can be controlled by a user.

The present invention provides a water-pumping device and a hairdressing device. The water-pumping device is connected to a liquid storage device to deliver liquid in the liquid storage device, and includes a chamber for containing the liquid and a squeezing device. Two ends of the chamber are communicated with a first water delivery channel and a second water delivery channel respectively, the first water delivery channel is connected to the liquid storage device, and a wall surface of the chamber is at least partially made of a deformable material, and the squeezing device periodically squeezes the deformable material from one end of the chamber to the other end thereof to make the first water delivery channel pump water and the second water delivery channel deliver water. No hose is provided in the chamber so that the number of components is reduced and the overall structure is simplified.

An automated mobile sprayer (AMS) includes a mobile base, an applicator arm supported by the mobile base, and a nozzle extending from the applicator arm. The nozzle receives fluid from a fluid supply and generates an atomized fluid spray for application to a surface. The applicator arm moves vertically relative to the mobile base and the surface to cause the nozzle to generate a vertical fluid stripe. The mobile base moves laterally relative to the surface to cause the nozzle to generate a horizontal fluid stripe.

This invention provides for a device and methods of dispensing a precise predetermined volume of liquid of discrete drops, vapor, or mist while preventing contamination due to Pull Back and ensuring precision dispensing.

The present invention relates to devices and methods for coating surfaces including surfaces of medical devices, in particular the coating of microprojections on microprojection arrays. The present invention also relates to print head devices and their manufacture and to methods of using the print head devices for manufacturing articles such as microprojection arrays as well as to coating the surfaces of microprojection arrays. The present invention also relates to high throughput printing devices that utilize the print heads of the present invention.

This invention relates to systems, methods, and disinfecting compositions for spraying onto surfaces to be sanitized or disinfected. Methods may include providing an aqueous hypohalite disinfecting composition, and providing a spraying system that may include a hand-held spray nozzle through which the composition is sprayed during use, and a pump and associated tubing for conveying the composition to the hand-held spray nozzle. The tubing may be specifically selected to exhibit at least a 65% recovery (no more than 35% loss) of hypohalite after 24 hours of contact between the composition and the tubing. The method may further include conveying the composition from the reservoir to the spray nozzle, and spraying the composition through the nozzle, e.g., onto the target surface. A related system may include similar components. A dilute hypohalite disinfecting composition may be provided for use with the system and/or method. The system may allow interchangeable use of a quaternary amine disinfecting composition.

A linear cleaning peristaltic metering pump includes a pump body, a hose fixing accessory and an anti-backflow accessory. The hose fixing accessory is configured for arranging a working hose. The anti-backflow accessory is configured for clamping and loosening the working hose. The pump body is configured for performing reciprocating motion to clamp or loosen the working hose, thereby realizing a pumping effect by metering pump. The anti-backflow accessory is in cooperation with the pump body. The pump body comprises a roller lifting assembly, a roller hose-pressing assembly, a pump body outer cover assembly and a power transmission part. The power transmission part is configured for driving the roller lifting assembly to perform lifting linear motion, thereby driving the roller hose-pressing assembly to move and to clamp or loosen the working hose.
