Abstract:
A soap dispensing shower head assembly comprises a pipe fitting 3 having internal threads 2 attaching directly to a shower faucet pipe 1. A fitting ring 5 is rotatably mounted on the pipe fitting 3 and head internal threads 4 so that the fitting ring 5 may be attached to an externally threaded portion 6 of the bottle bracket 7. First and second water conduits 11, 13 are in communication with a diverter valve 9 so that incoming water from the faucet pipe 1 is directed through the first conduit 11 and through the diverter valve 9, and back up through the second conduit 13. The diverter valve 9 is manually operable via a knob 37 and can be positioned to direct water through the second conduit 13 to the soap and water mixing chamber 15 in the pivoting shower head 17. The soap and water mixture stream then exits the shower head 17 through outlet nozzles 18.
Abstract:
An atomizer includes: an enclosed reservoir defining an inner space adapted to receive a liquid therein; a jet nozzle provided in the inner space for passage of an air jet therethrough; a jacket sleeved around the jet nozzle to define a fluid-introducing gap therebetween, the fluid-introducing gap being in fluid communication with the inner space for passage of the liquid therethrough; a mist-discharging conduit extending sealingly into and in fluid communication with the inner space and aligned with the jacket in a jet-ejecting direction; and a compressible member connected to the mist-discharging conduit and the jacket and compressible in the jet-ejecting direction. The jacket, the compressible member, and the mist-discharging conduit are an integrally formed single piece.
Abstract:
A low-volume atomiser for agricultural use is described, and an anti-drip device therefor, of the type comprising at least a tank (S) for a treatment liquid, a blower (V) to determine an airblast in delivery ducts (1) of delivery assemblies, and a system feeding the liquid to the delivery ducts (1) comprising at least one common manifold (2) with multiple branches from which a series of small pipes (4) depart connecting to respective delivery ducts, said liquid flowing in the small pipes (4) by depression, wherein between said common manifold (2) and each of said small pipes (4), at the bottom of said pipes, at least one check valve (6) is provided which prevents reflux of the treatment liquid towards the common manifold (2).
Abstract:
The present invention provides for a dispensing apparatus which will successfully disperse a minute amount of fertilizer during each watering of gardens, lawns, or the like. The apparatus of the present invention includes an inner chamber which is housed within an outer chamber. The inner chamber maintains a water soluble fertilizer and also includes an inlet and an outlet. An inlet and outlet is also at the outer ends of the outer chamber. A gap or space is situated between the inner chamber and outer chamber. For utilizing the device of the present invention, the user attaches a conventional water source to the inlet of the outer chamber while a water discharge device is secured to the outlet of the device. Water enters the inlet of the outer chamber and flows into the space or gap as well as enters the inner chamber via the inlet. The water within the inner chamber causes the fertilizer to dissolve and form a solution. This solution exits the inner chamber via the outlet. At the outlet of the inner chamber, the fresh water from the gap or space mixes with the solution to further dilute the solution. The diluted solution is then able to exit the apparatus via the outlet located at the outer end of the outer chamber.
Abstract:
A soap dispensing shower unit includes a base member which has plural shower head unit supporting members and plural soap container supporting members. Several soap supply containers are held by the soap container supporting members, and plural shower head units are held by the shower head unit supporting members. A soap dispensing shower head is included with the shower unit. This shower head includes a support with a shower head detachably fit to one end and a water supply pipe connector at the other end. A valve arrangement is provided with the support. This valve arrangement includes a soap supply line, a soap valve, a water supply line, a water valve and a junction where the soap supply line and the water supply line merge together. The soap valve and water valve may be selectively activated to supply soap only, water only, or a mixture of soap and water. Liquid soap is fed from the supply container to the soap supply line by a venturi feed arrangement or by a gravity feed arrangement. The support of the shower head may be in the form of a hand grip, wherein the valve arrangement is provided in the hand grip. The soap supply container may be provided at least partially in the hand grip.
Abstract:
An apparatus (20, 30) operative from a first liquid pressure only and configured to generate and selectively direct a stream of first liquid or a third liquid is disclosed. Since no electrical power is used, the apparatus can be safely operated in any moist environments (e.g. a shower). In preferred embodiments, the apparatus is configured to operate in series with a showerhead (22) and a sink tap (32) for dental irrigation. Either water or dental solution which is comprised of water mixed with dental concentrate, can be independently selected. A mixer valve (48) controls the concentration of the irrigating solution. A handheld syringe (40) contains all other controls necessary for operation.
Abstract:
A combination lawn feeder and sprinkler device includes a fluid container formed in a generally cylindrical configuration. The fluid container functions to hold water soluble fertilizer. The fluid container includes a cover with an aperture extending therethrough which is releasably coupled to the container. The apparatus also includes a propeller having a central shaft and a plurality of blades extending therefrom. The propeller functions to evenly distribute the water and fertilizer on a lawn. The shaft and blades have hollow interiors. The shaft is coupled within the aperture in the cover. The central shaft permits the flow of fluid from the container to the blades in the operative orientation. The free ends of each blade having an aperture to permit the dispersion of fluid through it. The shaft also includes a radially positioned hole. An associated water control device is also a feature of the apparatus. The water control device has two free ends. A first free end is positioned in the hole in the shaft. A second free end is adapted to be coupled to a garden hose. The water control device permits the user to regulate the flow of water therethrough in the operative orientation.
Abstract:
A fluid injection assembly of a type designed to inject fluid into a flowing stream of liquid at a predetermined, adjustable rate without the assistance of an outside power source other than the line pressure of the flowing stream itself. The assembly includes a casing having the fluid to be injected disposed therein and at least partially contained by a flexible membrane. Liquid from the flowing stream is partially disposed in fluid communication with the interior of the casing so as to flow in surrounding relation to a portion of the flexible membrane whereby pressure exerted thereon will aid in dispensing of the injection fluid therefrom. An open end of the dispensing line for the injection fluid is disposed within the flowing stream so as to create a negative pressure further aiding in removal of the fluid from within the casing. A liquid flow rate meter is provided so as to give a constant, visual indication of the rate of flow of the liquid into which it is desired to inject a fluid. A similarly constructed fluid injection meter is provided so as to permit visual observation of the rate of fluid injection. A dispensing valve is provided to allow regulation of the rate of injection of fluid into the flowing stream of liquid.
