Abstract:
A vehicle suspension system comprises a combination of cantilevered spring members which extend in opposite directions across the front and rear ends of the vehicle and are supported between upper and lower bearing members which are spaced to regulate the degree of resistance to roll or cornering loads both at the front and rear end suspensions. Novel and improved A-frame assemblies with toe and camber adjustments are provided at the front end of the system, and outboard extensions are provided at the rear end to increase the effective span or extension of the spring members in countering any tendency of the vehicle to roll.
Abstract:
A spraying device (10) includes a compound fourway rotatable control valve (30), an additive fluid control disc member (84) and a spray selector disc member (104), whereby a primary fluid, such as water, and an additive fluid, such as detergent, can be sprayed or dispensed in various spray patterns separately, or as a mixture having selectively variable concentrations of the additive fluid in the primary fluid. The compound fourway rotatable valve 30 is movable from an inoperative "OFF" position into first, second and third "WATER RINSE", "SOAP-AND-WATER" and "SUDS ONLY" operative positions. The control disc member (84) includes a plurality of orifices (86) of various diameters for controlling the amount of additive fluid dispensed into the primary fluid from a resilient bladder (16) containing the additive fluid as the bladder is collapsed in response to external pressure thereon by the primary fluid. The spray selector disc member (104) provides various spray patterns as the result of having orifices (112) of various configurations formed therethrough and selectively positionable in alignment with a discharge orifice of the device. A telescoping spray tube assembly (122), which telescopes outwardly in reponse to fluid pressure, may be utilized in place of the spray selector disc member (104).
