In one practice, the product comprises a dry shampoo spray foam composition of specific formulation in combination with a value actuator assembly having specific orifice size parameters.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a nebulizer, such as a spray can, for the topical application of a liquid and/or solid to a surface. The nebulizer is characterized by a valve comprising a mixing chamber designed for forming a colloidal mixture comprising a dispersed phase consisting of a liquid and/or a solid substance and a continuous phase consisting of a propellant gas before delivering the colloidal mixture to the nozzle. The invention also relates to a method for the topical cooling of the skin of a person or animal. In addition, the invention relates to various other uses of the device.
Abstract:
A gas assisted spray nozzle assembly having a nozzle body in the form of a hollow tubular member, such as a single cylindrical pipe section, which defines a mixing zone and a downstream barrel extension zone. A liquid inlet and an impingement pin are supported by the tubular member in opposed relation to each other at the mixing zone, and a pressurized gas inlet is provided at an upstream end of the tubular member. An annular dispersion ring is fixedly supported within the tubular member downstream of the impingement pin for defining an annular ledge for directing a peripheral portion of pressurized gas stream and liquid atomized in the mixing zone radially inwardly for facilitating continued intermixing of the liquid and pressurized gas stream as they proceed through the barrel zone for discharge from the spray nozzle.
Abstract:
A valve assembly including a housing with an internally projecting lip that seals against an outer surface of a valve stem inserted through it. A gas inlet is provided above the lip and a liquid inlet is provided below the lip. The lip thus ensures that a gas flow path and a liquid flow path are kept separate until the valve stem is moved to an open position, at which point a liquid inlet hole in the stem is brought into communication with the liquid inlet in the housing and a gas inlet hole in the stem is brought into communication with the gas inlet in the housing for the fluids mix in an outlet conduit in the stem. The arrangement means that there is no contact between the liquid and a sealing gasket, thereby avoiding swelling of the gasket that can cause the stem to stick.
Abstract:
A hand held spray device is disclosed. The spray device has a body with a reservoir to house a total fill of material, an actuator having an actuator exit orifice, a valve in fluid communication with the actuator exit orifice and the reservoir, and a propellant and antiperspirant composition stored in the reservoir. The propellant has a concentration from 72% to 90% by weight of the total fill of materials stored within the reservoir. The antiperspirant composition includes a non-volatile silicone fluid having a concentration from about 30% to about 70% by weight of the antiperspirant composition, an antiperspirant active, greater than 1% substantially inert particulates, an organoclay material, at least one liquid activation enhancer, and optionally a liquid fragrance material.
Abstract:
It is a subject to provide a nozzle device capable of effectively spraying air and capable of applying chemical solutions to a traveling body at a high deposition rate. For solving the subject, the present invention is a nozzle device 100 for applying a chemical solution Y to a traveling body 50 in a paper machine 101, the nozzle device 100 comprising a nozzle main body portion 2 having a chemical solution nozzle opening 1 capable of discharging the chemical solution Y, and an air main body portion 10 capable of spraying air from both sides of the nozzle main body portion 2 so as to put the discharged chemical solution Y between, wherein the air main body portion 10 includes an air introducing passage 13 for introducing air, a pair of front and rear flow passages 14 communicating with the air introducing passage 13 and a pair of air nozzle openings 12 communicating with each of the flow passages 14 for discharging air, and wherein a relationship between a cross-sectional area SA of the air introducing passage 13 and cross-sectional areas SB of the air nozzle openings 12 satisfies
