Abstract:
A shower additive dispenser assembly including an arm member. A receptacle is mounted to the arm member. A body member has a cavity formed therein for retaining a fluid, the body member is removably mounted to the receptacle. A microporous flow restrictor is disposed at the body member. The microporous flow restrictor is configured for allowing the fluid to exit the body member.
Abstract:
A spraying device is provided that includes a cartridge containing a first fluid, the cartridge being removably connected to a sprayer body. The cartridge is oriented such that gravity exerts a downward force on the first fluid. The sprayer body includes a conduit for receiving a second fluid. A valve is coupled to the conduit. The valve allows the second fluid to flow through the valve, thus creating a Venturi vacuum that draws the first fluid out of the cartridge and into the valve to enable the first and second fluids to mix and form an outlet stream. An orifice meters a predetermined amount of the first fluid into the valve to achieve a predetermined ratio of the first fluid to the second fluid. The outlet stream is then dispensed from a spray nozzle.
Abstract:
A cartridge for an admixing arrangement of a manually operable arrangement for spraying a solvent, in particular water, into which an additive in the form of a liquid concentrate, such as a plant or crop protection agent, has been mixed, includes an outer cartridge housing; a pressure-sensitive inner container for accommodating the liquid concentrate; a mixing chamber, the mixing chamber having a device with a first outlet opening, for the concentrate or plant spray, an inlet opening, designed as a throttle, for the solvent or water, and a second outlet opening for the concentrate/solvent mixture.
Abstract:
The liquid accelerator and chemical mixing system apparatus is a means for generating a velocity head differential to a current of liquid in a liquid environment or liquid containment means or a natural water body. The generating means includes a venturi eductor, having a motive liquid distribution housing and at least one venturi nozzle. The venturi eductor functions by motive liquid introduced from a remote motive liquid source, received via the motive liquid attachment means passing through a motive liquid main pipe or cylinder, through the liquid distribution housing, which is circumferentially attached to the eductor tube. The generated velocity head differential induces and accelerates the current of liquid, enabling the venturi eductor to discharge a current of liquid to move objects within the liquid environment by directing the current of liquid and to induce and mix chemicals in a liquid containment means.
Abstract:
An apparatus for spraying lawn products adapted for use with a fluid supply source and a reservoir includes a housing defining a mixing chamber therein and a reservoir coupled to the housing. A process for use of the apparatus is also disclosed. The housing includes a substantially cylindrically shaped cap portion having discontinuous internal threads forming flats therein, a lip portion, and an open end portion. The reservoir includes a generally cylindrically shaped neck portion having a partial exterior shoulder, external threads thereon, and an end portion. Internal threads of the neck portion of the reservoir interengage the discontinuous internal threads having flats therein of the cap portion. The partial exterior shoulder of the reservoir interengages the open end portion of the cap portion such that the end portion of the neck of the reservoir does not engage the lip portion of the cap portion aspirating of the reservoir and housing.
Abstract:
A spray nozzle (10) has a nozzle body (20) with an inlet (24) and an outlet (26). The inlet (24) is attachable to a hose (2). The outlet (26) is configured to receive a chemically-containing cartridge (70). A forwardly-disposed trigger (30) is finger-actuated and operates the valve (52) of a first valve assembly (50) to control water flow through the nozzle (10). An inlet conduit (56) connects the first valve assembly (50) to a second valve assembly (60). The second valve assembly (60) is thumb-actuated by a toggle (40) to pass water through the nozzle (10) as clean water supplied to the nozzle (10) via the hose (2) or through the nozzle (10) as chemical-added water that is created by a venturi-induced assembly (80) contained within the cartridge (70).
Abstract:
Atomization of a high boiling point, hot liquid, such as a hydrocarbon feed oil for a fluid cat cracker, is enhanced by injecting subcooled water into the hot liquid, to form a two-phase fluid of the liquid and steam, upstream of the atomization. The hot liquid is at conditions of temperature and pressure effective for the injected, subcooled water to vaporize into steam, when the water contacts it. Typically this means that the hot liquid is hotter and at a lower pressure than the water. In an FCC process, the subcooled water is sparged into the flowing hot oil in a conduit in a riser feed injector. This produces a spray of hot oil in the riser reaction zone in which the oil drops are smaller and more uniformly distributed in the spray.
Abstract:
The present invention is "A LIQUID/FOAM/MIXING/AERATION ADAPTER APPARATUS" which is substantially made from an elongated flexible member (which forms a mixing chamber therein) having first and second open ends, with the first end being frictionally attachable to a nozzle and the second end containing an insert for expelling a liquid/foam/air solution therefrom. The member further includes at least two angular cavities which are in open communication with the mixing chamber for aeration and each cavity is of a size and shape to recieve therein a unique adjustable aeration device.
Abstract:
A mixing and dispensing sprayer apparatus is comprised of a bottle or container and a nozzle assembly where a fluid passed through the nozzle assembly mixes with a material contained in the container and the mixture of fluid and material then passes from the container back into the fluid flow through the nozzle assembly and exits the nozzle assembly as a spray. The container and nozzle assembly are molded as a single unit of a plastic material by a blow molding process. A hollow interior volume of the container communicates with a fluid conducting channel of the nozzle assembly through one or more ports formed in the apparatus. The nozzle assembly of the apparatus has an orifice formed therein that directs a portion of fluid flowing through the nozzle assembly into the container interior where the fluid is mixed with a material contained in the container, such as a particulate, liquid or soluble material, and the mixture of fluid and material then passes back through the port into the channel of the nozzle assembly where it is mixed with fluid passing through the channel and exits the nozzle assembly as a spray.
Abstract:
There is provided a new and useful insert for dispersing a liquid additive into a water inlet stream in a conventional shower assembly wherein the assembly includes a water inlet pipe and a shower head assembly, the insert comprising a cylindrical body member having a wall, the member adapted for attaching at one end to the inlet pipe and at an opposite end to the shower head assembly; a baffle within and intermediate the ends of the body, the baffle dividing the body into an inlet and an outlet chamber and having a longitudinal passage therethrough from the first to the second chamber; and first and second passages through the wall, respectively from each of the inlet and outlet chambers.
