Abstract:
A trigger-operated dispensing device for a liquid comprising a tang (12) applied to the exit duct, a nozzle (30) applied to a tang, an insert (60) applied to the nozzle (30), axially bound and rotatable around the dispensing axis (X), provided with two openings (62, 64) for dispensing the liquid as a spray or as a foam. The insert (60) comprises an obturator (68), shaped to close/open the device.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a flow control device which provides a means for those using a shower apparatus to manually adjust the flow rate through the shower apparatus independently of altering the water flow rate at the initial hot and cold water mixing point, therefore making it possible to alter the water flow rate as the end user so desires. In a preferred embodiment, this is achieved by simply rotating an outer sleeve of the device.
Abstract:
An apparatus (1) includes a handheld element (100, 101) and a remote control (7). The handheld element (100, 101) has a proximal end (102), a distal end (104), and an internal flow conduit. The internal flow conduit (57) extends between the proximal (102) and distal (104) ends. The internal flow conduit (57) is configured to be in fluid communication with a hose (5). The remote control (7) is integrated with the handheld element (100, 101). The remote control (7) is configured to transmit wireless data signals for controlling a plurality of devices associated with the hose. The plurality of devices may include a reel (2), a valve system (3), a valve unit (52), and/or a plurality of valves (46).
Abstract:
Adjustable nozzles are disclosed. Nozzles of the present invention include an adjustable component for controlling the water flow through the nozzle. Instead of disassembling the nozzle, a tool may be used to adjust the adjustable component. For example, the adjustable component may be adjusted longitudinally with respect to the axis of the nozzle or rotationally using the tool, thereby increasing or decreasing the volume, velocity and distance of the water stream exiting the nozzle.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a multi-functional head apparatus for an aqueduct capable of classifying water supplied through the aqueduct into original water and purified water, and allowing users to selectively use water as shower water or foaming water, thereby improving convenience of use, expanding a life span of the filter and saving management cost for the filter. The head apparatus is fixedly connected to the aqueduct and includes a handle member having a first end connected to the aqueduct and accommodating a filter housing having a water purifying filter therein in a non-contact manner, a water path switching unit coupled to the handle member for selectively discharging original water or purified water, a head member connected to the water path switching unit in order to allow purified water or original water to flow therethrough, and a water-status switching unit coupled to the head member to selectively change a status of original water or purified water into foaming water or shower water.
Abstract:
An improved metering apparatus is provided for use with a foam dispenser (20) that disperses beads of foam after mixing streams of two foam components together. The dispenser (20) has a pair of inlet passages (23) formed in a body portion (21) of dispenser (20) and a spool valve (40) rotatably mounted in the body portion (21). The spool valve (40) has a pair of flow passages (48) formed in it that can be rotated into mating alignment with the inlet passages (23) formed in the dispenser body portion (21). The spool valve flow passages (48) have circular cross-sections while the inlet passages (23) have non-circular cross-sections, and preferably triangular cross-sections.
Abstract:
An atomization nozzle structure capable of freely turning is disposed on an atomization operation member having a valve stem fitting hole to be fitted over a valve stem of a mountain cap at a can upper end portion. While the atomization nozzle structure is suspended, a jet port of a jet port member is opened and the atomization nozzle structure is turned through 90 degrees to a horizontal position, the atomization nozzle structure is positioned in such a manner as to bring a horizontal holding plate into contact with, or close to, the upper surface of the jet port member at the position at which it covers the jet port of the jet port member, and the root portion of the atomization nozzle structure is shaped to have a surface suitable for rotation on the opposite side to the jet port, so that an atomization operation member is turnably operated.
Abstract:
A mixing and dispensing gun (10) with a valve body (18) containing a pair of liquid inlets (121), a pair of separate liquid outlets (123), a gas outlet (174) and a removable mixing and dispensing nozzle (24). The nozzle (24) contains the ingredients while they are being mixed and a gas outlet (83) is positioned within the nozzle (24) so as to propel the mixed ingredients to the application area. The nozzle (24) and gun body (12) include cooperating inlet and outlet ports such as nipples (122, 124, 126) and recesses to permit alignment and sealing when the nozzle (24) is positioned for use. A gas valve (32) is arranged so that it may be operated simultaneously or in sequence with a liquid valve (30).
