Abstract:
A liquid dispensing device for dispensing a liquid into the surrounding atmosphere employs a forced airflow through a small cross-section outlet nozzle (48) to draw the liquid from an adjacent exit nozzle (50) into the airflow. The air outlet nozzle preferably has a cross-section less than that of the liquid exit nozzle. The liquid exit nozzle may partially overlie the airflow path from the air outlet nozzle. The nozzle may be formed in or carried by a unit (24) having sealed connections with the airflow source (16) and a container holding the liquid.
Abstract:
A mist sprayer includes a base, a pump, a pressure storage member, a circuit board, a mounting tube, an injection unit, a decorative shade, a mounting seat, a guide unit, a bottle, and a plug. Thus, the liquid is mixed with and atomized by the pressurized gas and the misted gas hits the striking face of the guide unit to multiple misted molecules, thereby enhancing and optimizing the atomized effect of the liquid.
Abstract:
A novel device and method for applying two or more liquid components, for example fibrin sealant-forming components, comprises sources of the components fliud communication with, but remote from, an applicator for delivering the components to a desired site. Preferably, the user of such a device and method can actuate the application of the components by providing a signal to a controller which dispenses components from their sources to, and out of, the applicator. Greater ease, accuracy and control are realized by the user since the sources of components and controller are remote from the applicator and therefore not manually held by the user.
Abstract:
A nebulizer for entraining liquid in a flow of carrier gas from a carrier gas source at a select pressure includes a nozzle defining a passage which is circular in cross section and includes a converging section, a throat and a uniformly diverging section, all of which are coaxial and serially connected. The nozzle has an inlet at the mouth of the converging section and an outlet defining a primary orifice at the mouth of the diverging section. The inlet is connectable in fluid communication with the pressurized carrier gas source. The nebulizer further includes a reservoir for the liquid to be entrained and a conduit for conveying a liquid in the reservoir between the reservoir and the primary orifice. The conduit further includes a jacket spaced from and enveloping the primary orifice defining a liquid chamber about the primary orifice. The jacket has a secondary orifice spaced from and coaxial with the primary orifice. A method of entraining a liquid in a flow of carrier gas for delivery to a patient utilizes the nozzle described above to accelerate a carrier gas to a supersonic velocity. A liquid is delivered to the primary orifice and sheared by the supersonic carrier gas.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a device for forming a mist or fog having a convex surface which receives and expands a fluid delivered thereto. The convex surface of the device has a number of circular protrusions spaced peripherally thereon, separated by a number of slots having holes therein. The holes communicate with an inner cylindrical chamber. Suction is produced through the holes when the fluid stream passes over them, to automatically add a further fluid to the fluid being expanded by the device. A cylindrical sleeve surrounds and protects the device. The device is supported in the cylindrical sleeve, either in front of a nozzle by an annular structure, or by a bent tube held in the cylindrical sleeve in front of the device, or in a venturi. When fluid from the nozzle or entering the cylindrical sleeve is expanded by the convex surface, it pulls a further fluid through the slots to mix with the injected fluid separated from the convex surface of the device at greater speed, thus forming a mixed fog of fluid.
Abstract:
An improved spray nozzle for supplying dampening fluid to a printing press is made of modular parts joined together and formed so that air and dampening fluids flow through the body of the nozzles, exit through outlet orifices in directions substantially perpendicular with respect to each other, and then impinge against a deflector plate located between two of the body modules so that fluids join while traveling in substantially parallel directions to produce a spray which is widely dispersed in the direction while being narrowly dispersed in a second direction.
Abstract:
Coating apparatus is disclosed which has a spray tip characteristic tailored to produce an atomized spray patter which is substantially triangular in cross section. This results in a coat distribution uniform particularly throughout a given width of a substrate. Means are also provided to hold the spray tip wide open for maintenance purposes.
Abstract:
A film forming apparatus, a substrate processing apparatus, and a device manufacturing method are provided, which improve the film thickness uniformity of a thin film that is formed on a substrate by spraying a thin film material. The film forming apparatus which forms a thin film on a substrate is provided with a nozzle that sprays a thin film material and an exhaust unit that discharges a gas. An exhaust port of the exhaust unit is arranged on a side that is opposite to the direction in which the gravity acts with respect to the substrate. The substrate processing apparatus performs a predetermined process on the substrate using the film forming apparatus. The device manufacturing method manufactures a device using the film forming apparatus.
Abstract:
An atomizing cutting fluid system. The system includes a common chamber terminating in a shaped droplet nozzle and including a nozzle section immediately behind the shaped droplet nozzle. An atomizer creates spray directly within the common chamber behind the nozzle section. A cutting fluid supply line provides cutting fluid to the atomizer. A high velocity gas nozzle within the nozzle section and behind the droplet nozzle is configured to provide a high velocity gas to entrain the flow of droplets. The nozzle section and droplet nozzle are configured to produce a fully developed droplets-gas flow at a predetermined distance from the droplet nozzle. In a cutting system, the spray system provides a uniform film for a macro or micro cutting operation at sufficient flow rates.
