Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a liquid-jet nozzle of the kind set forth in the preamble of claim 1.
  • a liquid-jet nozzle of the kind referred to above is known from the German published specification No. 4,213,226.
  • the recess formed in the upstream side of the end wall has a rather complicated shape, partly comprising spherical surfaces, partly “side walls” in continuation of said spherical surfaces, the transitions between the various surfaces being constituted by sharp edges.
  • the shape of the recess referred to as known from the above document is the cause of certain disadvantages, both with regard to the flow conditions and with regard to the manufacture of the nozzles.
  • the complicated shape of the recess especially the sharp edges referred to, will create turbulence in the issuing liquid jet and prevent the flattening of the liquid jet from occurring as smoothly as possible.
  • the manufacture of the nozzle the complicated shape of the recess makes it impossible to produce it by means of e.g. milling operations, but demands the use of specially designed embossing or stamping tools, that can only be used, if the material of the nozzle lends itself to being shaped by embossing or stamping.
  • the recess in the upstream side of the end wall may be formed by a simple milling or grinding process using a milling or grinding tool, respectively, with a rounded end, that may be moved back and forth transversely of the longitudinal direction of the nozzle during the machining operation.
  • Practical trials with the nozzle according to the invention have shown that the liquid jet flattens in such a manner, that at a certain distance from the mouth of the nozzle, it becomes extremely thin, almost to resemble a knife edge - this would hardly be possible with a nozzle, with which there is a risk of turbulence being created.
  • the liquid-jet nozzle 1 for use in a high-pressure cleaner and shown in the drawing comprises in a manner known per se an inlet chamber 2, the upstream side of which as shown diagrammatically in Figure 2 is adapted to receive liquid under pressure from the liquid pump 3 in a liquid-supply and control unit 4. On the downstream side, the inlet chamber 2 debouches outwardly through a nozzle aperture 5, so that a liquid jet 6 can be ejected as shown in Figure 1.
  • the liquid jet 6 progressively spreads outwardly in the shape of a fan, the jet gradually becoming wider and thinner as indicated with the cross-sectional views 6a-6d.
  • the liquid jet 6 is quite thin, and if it is directed towards a surface to be cleaned in such a manner, that the liquid jet 6 hits the surface at this distance, a very large cleaning effect will be achieved, comparable to what can be achieved by using a metal scraper of the same width. If the liquid jet 6 is allowed to flow past the location corresponding to the cross-sectional view 6d, it will normally disintegrate to form a great number of small droplets. Trials have shown that the liquid jet 6d as shown exhibits a significantly greater cleaning effect than a jet with a circular cross-sectional shape and having the same mass-flow velocity.
  • the nozzle aperture 5 is situated in an end wall 7 in the nozzle 1, and on the upstream side, this end wall 7 comprises an oval recess 8, the longitudinal axis 9 of which extends parallel to the sectional plane of Figure 2, but at right angles to the sectional plane in Figure 1.
  • the recess 8 consists of two spherical surfaces 10 connected to each other through a transition surface 11 forming a transition between the two spherical surfaces 10.
  • the recess 8 may be produced by means of a ball-shaped milling cutter being moved between the two positions corresponding to the two spherical surfaces 10, so that it produces the transition surface 11 when moving between them.
  • the recess 8 is symmetrical, partly about the longitudinal axis 12 for the nozzle aperture 5, partly about its own longitudinal axis 9, and partly about its own transverse axis (not shown) intersecting the longitudinal axis 12 in the nozzle aperture 5.
  • the upstream side of the end wall 7 has the shape of a spherical surface 13, the radius 14 of which is the same as the radius in the remainder of the inlet chamber 2.
  • a shallow recess 15 is formed on the downstream side of the end wall 7.
  • the liquid jet 6 is flattened out in such a manner that its main plane extends at right angles to the longitudinal axis 9 for the recess 8 shown in Figure 4.
  • the reason for this is presumably that the spherical surfaces 10, cf. Figure 5, add two oppositely and inwardly directed components to the movement of the liquid flow, so that the liquid jet 6 almost immediately after having left the nozzle aperture 5 has a marked ellipsoidal cross-sectional shape as shown by the cross-sectional view 6a. Since at this location, a certain momentum still remains in the components referred to, the liquid jet 6 will continue flattening out as shown in Figure 1.
  • the function of the recess 15 on the downstream side of the end wall 7 is not to influence the liquid flow, but to make it possible to let the nozzle aperture 5 be sufficiently short for achieving the desired effect, at the same time as the end wall 7 may have the requisite mechanical strength, partly to withstand the high internal liquid pressure, partly to withstand the rough treatment, to which high-pressure cleaners are often subjected, and at the same time protect the outlet side of the nozzle aperture 5.
  • a number of practical trials with a high-pressure cleaner comprising a liquid-jet nozzle constructed as shown in the drawing have been carried out.
  • nozzles have been used, in which the axial length 16 of the nozzle aperture 5 has been between 0.2 and 0.3 times the diameter 17 of the nozzle aperture, and in which the two spherical surfaces 10 have had a radius 18 of between 0.8 and 1.11 times the diameter 17 of the nozzle aperture, said diameter having varied between 1.36 and 1.82 mm, while the centres of curvature 19 for the spherical surfaces 10 have been situated at a distance 20 of between 0.2 and 0.3 times the diameter 17 of the nozzle aperture from the latter's axis 12.
  • the spherical surface 13 constituting the upstream side of the end wall 7 has had a radius 14, as mentioned above being the same as the radius of the inlet chamber 2, of between 2 and 3 times the diameter 17 of the nozzle aperture.
  • the recess 15 may e.g. have a diameter 21 of between 1 and 1 1/2 times the diameter 17 of the nozzle aperture and a depth 22 of between 1 and 2 times the axial length 16 of the nozzle aperture, possibly a little more, provided that the liquid jet 6 is not influenced.
  • the liquid-jet nozzle 1 will normally be made from the same material normally used for such nozzles, e.g. steel, so as to be able to withstand the high internal pressures of the order of magnitude 100-200 bars that may occur in high-pressure cleaners.
