Abstract: A fluidic oscillator which is free of feedback passages has an oscillation chamber having a length greater than its width, a pair of mutually facing and complementary-shaped sidewalls (13, 14), planar top and bottom walls (141, 142), and first and second end walls (15). An input power nozzle (17) is formed in said first end wall (15) having a width W and a depth D, for issuing a stream of fluid into the oscillation chamber, and forms alternately pulsating, cavitation-free vortices in said oscillation chamber on each side of the stream. An interconnect passage or channel (107) proximate the downstream end wall (103) enlarges the sweep angle and improves periodicity of the oscillations. The outlet wall (148) is hingedly connected to a chamber wall and the chamber is such that it can be molded with the outlet wall hingedly connected thereto in one molding and forms one side of the inteconnect passage or channel.

Abstract: A long throw Pop-Up Irrigation Nozzle assembly has no oscillating or rotating parts and includes a cylindrical body having a fluid inlet and a sidewall defining at least one fluidic circuit configured to generate a selected spray pattern when irrigation fluid flows through the body.

Abstract: A full coverage fluidic oscillator (2) includes a fluidic circuit member preferably having an oscillation inducing internal chamber, at least one inlet (8) or source of fluid under pressure, at least a pair of output nozzles (14, 16) connected to the source of fluid for projecting at least first and second impinging fluid jets into free space, where the first and second impinging jets collide or impinge upon one another at a selected jet angle to generate a substantially omni-directional sheet jet having selected thickness. The first and second jets are aimed at a pre-selected intersection point in free space where impingement is to occur. The sheet jet's thickness Δy is determined by the time-varying path or oscillation of each of the first and second impinging jets. The first and second impinging jets can be made to oscillate or pulsate by use of vortex generating amplifier structures (68, 70, 72, 149) within the internal chamber's fluid flow paths.

Abstract: A two-stage liquid spray device having an outlet region with an island (41) and an exit aperture (47) and a fluidic oscillator (33) driving said outlet region. The improvement for the spray device is operable at a low pressure to achieve full-area coverage with substantially uniform droplets and wherein all of the spray droplets land on the desired work surface and do not bounce. The fluidic oscillator includes an oscillation chamber (33), a power nozzle (31) for introducing a jet of liquid from a source into the oscillation chamber. The oscillation chamber is configured to produce a pair of alternating control vortices which substantially preclude wall attachment of said jet traversing said oscillation chamber, thus avoiding a heavy endedness in the oscillatory jet. An outlet from the oscillation chamber to the outlet region, whereby the jet rhythmically sweeps in end pulses to each side of the island and forms a sheet at the exit aperture. The sheet is rhythmically waved or swept in the ambient air to form the uniform droplets. A transverse slot defines the lateral boundary of the sweeping sheet.

Abstract: A vehicle nozzle system having a source of washer liquid (14) under pressure, a fluidic oscillator (11) comprising a housing and a fluidic insert having a power nozzle, an oscillation chamber (oc) having an upstream end (pn) coupled to the power nozzle for issuing a jet of washer liquid into the oscillation chamber and a downstream end having an outlet aperture (oc'') for issuing a jet of wash liquid to ambient, and side and top and bottom walls, an oscillation inducing silhouette in the oscillation chamber for causing said jet of wash liquid to rhythmically sweep back and forth between the sidewalls in the oscillation chamber. Top and bottom walls of the oscillation chamber first diverge for a predetermined distance in a downstream direction and then convert towards each other through said outlet aperture. This enables the deflection angle to be adjusted for different vehicles and applications by changes to the fluidic insert without changes to the housing.
