Abstract: A fluidic flow meter comprising a fluidic oscillator having an oscillation chamber, a power nozzle for issuing a jet of fluid into the oscillation chamber, an outlet for issuing fluid from the oscillation chamber. A bendable fiber optic wave guide loop has a section adapted to lose light, as a result of flexing or bending, is mounted in a flow path in the oscillation chamber and subjected to oscillatory flow of the fluid. Light is injected into one end of the fiber optic wave guide and a detector senses the oscillatory loss of light in the fiber optic wave guide as a measure of fluid flow through the fluidic oscillator.

Abstract: Fluidic transducers of electrical signals from an electronic computer to accurately switch flow of a liquid to a utilization device. A liquid filled hollow channel (166 and 166') is accelerated along the flow axis thereof to produce a fluid control signal for a bistable fluidic switch element (112) with a cross-over type interaction channel (42) and a common outlet (45) to a pair of output passageways (147 and 148). In a preferred embodiment, electrical signals from an electronic computer (220) are supplied to a coil (170) centered by a spring (190 and 191) in a magnetic field, first in one direction of current flow and then in the opposite direction, to introduce bidirectional movement of the coil (170) and the hollow channel means (166 and 166') coupled thereto. The signals are preferably frequency modulated (205) (but may be pulse width modulated).

Abstract: 17 vide partiel produit dans le passage d'admission d'une chambre à tourbillon est utilisé pour déplacer le liquide d'un compartiment à un autre afin de maintenir le niveau de liquide dans au moins l'un des compartiments en deçà d'un niveau prédéterminé du liquide dans l'autre compartiment. Dans un mode de réalisation, l'unité de tourbillon (14) ou un autre organe d'aspiration développe un vide partiel à la hauteur maximale d'un tube de syphon (8) s'étendant entre les deux chambres, le vide aspirant le fluide des deux ou au moins de l'une des deux chambres vers le sommet du tube (8) amorçant ainsi l'effet de syphon. Une pompe de mines (6) possédant une pression négative insuffisante pour faire monter le liquide à la hauteur maximale du tube de syphon (8) est utilisée pour amener le liquide à une charge et, de concert avec l'unité de tourbillon (14), pour établir le vide partiel requis par l'amorçage de l'effet de syphon. L'unité de tourbillon (50) peut également être logée dans le tube de syphon (52, 54) et peut être utilisée comme pompe pour amener le liquide d'un compartiment seulement à un autre ou, dans un autre mode de réalisation, comme syphon pour déplacer le liquide dans les deux directions pour maintenir les niveaux du liquide dans les deux récipients à une différence de hauteur prédéterminée l'un par rapport à l'autre.

Optionally, an outlet "A" can be positioned in the interaction region and allow for air entrainment into the interaction region or external oscillating spray streams to generate a foamed spray of fluid product.

Abstract: A conformal, cup-shaped fluidic nozzle engineered to generate an oscillating spray is configured as a (e.g., 100, 400, 600 or 700). Preferably, the fluidic circuit's oscillation inducing geometry 710 is molded directly into the cup's interior wall surfaces and the one-piece fluidic cup may then fitted into an actuator (e.g., 340). The fluidic cup (e.g., 100, 400, 600 or 700) conforms to the actuator stem used in typical aerosol sprayers and trigger sprayers and so replaces the prior art "swirl cup" 70 that goes over the actuator stem (e.g., 320), With the fluidic cup (e.g., 100, 400, 600 or 700) and method of the present invention, vendors of liquid products and fluids sold in commercial aerosol sprayers 20 and trigger sprayers 800 can now provide very specifically tailored or customized sprays.

Abstract: A vehicle windshield defrost system utilizes a fluidic oscillator for sweeping a jet of heated air across the windshield. The fluidic oscillator is of the type having an interaction chamber (20) with sidewalls which converge to a common outlet (21) to form a crossover type output region and thereby reduce the amount of space on the dashboard normally occupied by an output funnel.
