Abstract:
A mist-generating device is provided. The device comprises a housing (89) and a nozzle (100) located within the housing (89). The nozzle (100) is movable between a retracted position inside the housing (89) and a deployed position outside the housing (89). A drain chamber (170) is defined between the housing (89) and nozzle (100) when the nozzle (100) is in the retracted position. A drain passage (174) provides fluid communication away from the drain chamber (170). A portable mist-generating apparatus which may incorporate the mist-generating device is also provided, as is a method of operating the mist-generating device.
Abstract:
A method for multi-agent dry fogging. The method includes pressurizing a first agent to a first range of pressure. The first agent includes a sterilant. The method also includes pressurizing a second agent to a second range of pressure. The second agent includes a non-depleting solution for protection against microorganism growth. The method also includes pressurizing a gas to a gas range of pressure. The method also includes atomizing the first agent at a nozzle to mix with the pressurized gas in a first application stage to disperse the first agent in a first dry fog within an ambient environment. The method also includes atomizing the second agent at the nozzle to mix with the pressurized gas in a second application stage to disperse the second agent in a second dry fog within the ambient environment.
Abstract:
An injector apparatus and methods for use, where the injector apparatus comprises: (a) hydraulic stage having first and second ends and including a housing defining a cavity, a primary plunger disposed in the cavity and a secondary plunger, (b) a pressurization system coupled to the hydraulic stage's first end, where the primary plunger is in fluid communication with the pressurization system and is in mechanical communication with the secondary plunger, (c) a reservoir bore defined in the hydraulic stage housing and configured to receive the primary plunger's second end, where the secondary plunger is disposed within the reservoir bore and (d) a nozzle assembly including a housing, a gas tube and a nozzle capillary, where the nozzle capillary is partially disposed in and is substantially coaxial with the gas tube, where the nozzle capillary's first end is in fluid communication with the reservoir bore's second end.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to an arrangement of two conduits, wherein the conduits are positioned parallel with respect to each other and wherein each conduit is provided with means suitable to remove solids from its surface and positioned along the length of one of the two sides of the conduit, wherein the means are one or more pairs of oppositely oriented nozzles, each nozzle having an outflow opening for gas directed, along the surface of the conduit, towards the outflow opening of the other nozzle of said pair, wherein the pairs of oppositely oriented nozzles of one conduit are arranged in a staggered configuration relative to the pairs of oppositely oriented nozzles of the other conduit.
Abstract:
A nozzle for cleaning a lens surface of a camera includes a cleaning liquid path that guides a cleaning liquid to a discharge port and an air passage that guides a compressed air to a discharge port. Furthermore, a distal end portion of the cleaning liquid path and a distal end portion of the air passage are disposed so as to be proximate to each other, or are disposed so as to be merged with each other. Then, at the time of cleaning the lens surface, the compressed air is made intermittently jet from the discharge port, and the cleaning liquid is suctioned with the negative pressure occurring due to the jetting of the compressed air to make the cleaning liquid intermittently jet from the discharge port, thereby cleaning the lens surface.

Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed, in one embodiment, to a water atomization and water mist delivery system in which water and a gas are mixed in an aspirating device and provided to a nozzle. The mixture may be delivered from the nozzle to provide fire protection and suppression.
Abstract:
This invention is directed to a method for producing a coating layer of a coating composition comprising two or more components. The two or more components are mixed post atomization. This invention is also directed to a spray gun having a delivery device for producing such coating layer.
Abstract:
The container has a fragrance emitting dispensing pump. The dispensing pump has a pump mechanism and pump head on one end of the pump mechanism. The dispensing pump head is comprised of an upper portion and a lower portion. The fragrance substance is within an internal area in the upper portion, the lower portion or both portions of the dispensing pump head. The lower portion has a structure for attaching the dispensing pump to the container. The upper portion of the dispensing pump head has a dispensing channel through the internal area that on one end extends into the lower portion of the pump head to the pump mechanism and at a second end is open to the exterior atmosphere. The internal area contains a fragrance substance. A peripheral wall of the upper portion and a peripheral wall of the lower portion have a space, and optionally at least one aperture that is in communication with the exterior of the dispensing pump. In addition the lower portion can have more than one fragrance containing space. Upon the actuation of the dispensing pump fragrance that is contained within the internal area is emitted dynamically from the space which in one embodiment can include peripheral aperture(s). In the primary embodiment additionally some fragrance can be emitted by convection during the time that the pump not being actuated. The fragrance substance may be a solid, solid particles or it can be compressible material
