Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a liquid jet nozzle, and more particularly to a liquid jet nozzle which causes the fluid exiting the nozzle to have a fan pattern.
  • nozzles for fluids are presently known, and are used for various different purposes.
  • U.S. Patent Application Publication No. US2003/0015604 discloses a nozzle to promote a flat fluid stream.
  • the nozzle of this reference relates to an atomizing nozzle for injecting fuel into, for example, a furnace.
  • a central liquid stream is impacted on two sides by air jets in order to shape the spray pattern of the liquid stream.
  • U.S. Patent No. 6,267,301 also shows an atomizing nozzle. In this construction once again, two air flow paths are directed toward a central liquid flow to shape the spray pattern of the liquid.
  • U.S. Patent No. 6,161,778 also shows an atomizing nozzle. In this construction, however, the mixed flow of air and liquid exits from two orifices that are directed toward one another.
  • U.S. Patent No. 5,435,491 teaches another type of spray nozzle which produces a fan-shaped pattern by surrounding the central liquid emitting orifice with air emitting orifices so that the compressed air changes the shape of the spray pattern.
  • a nozzle for a different purpose is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 3,927,833.
  • This nozzle is intended for providing a mixed spray of a plural component liquid resin and a curing agent with granular and fiber material entrained in the mixed spray.
  • the nozzle of the present invention is intended for use as a waterjet cutting nozzle.
  • a typical waterjet system includes a waterjet head that is supplied with liquid at an ultra high pressure, for example, 10,000-60,000 per square inch.
  • the ultra high pressure liquid is discharged from the head in a high velocity stream against the work piece.
  • the liquid stream is used to cut through the work piece.
  • a conventional waterjet nozzle has a round sapphire orifice.
  • a known problem encountered with using such a nozzle is a taper being formed at the cut.
  • fan jet nozzles have been used which provide a fan-shaped stream. These known nozzles are not durable and have a limited life span when used at pressures above 20,000 pounds per square inch (psi). The life expectancy of presently available fan jets above 20,000 psi (more importantly in the 30,000-40,000 psi range) is nowhere near what commercially available round sapphire orifice nozzles can produce.
  • one aspect of the present invention resides in a waterjet nozzle constructed to have two round water jets directed toward one another so that fluid leaving the jets intersects to form a fan jet pattern.
  • the fan jet nozzle of the invention has a much longer useful life than conventional fan jet nozzles at operating pressures above 20,000 psi.
  • the resulting combined or intersected jet retains a very high percentage of the energy available prior to intersection.
  • Fig. 1 is a cross-section through the inventive nozzle
  • Fig. 2 is a view of the fan jet along the arrow A in Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 is a schematic view of the pattern of the fan jet produced by the inventive nozzle.
  • Fig. 1 shows a cross-section through the fan jet nozzle 1 of the present invention.
  • the nozzle 1 has a housing 2 with a central channel 3 via which water enters the nozzle and an outlet 4 via which the formed fan jet 5 exits the nozzle.
  • a subnozzle 6 is arranged in the central channel 3 and has two converging sections 7.
  • the subnozzle 6 has a round sapphire orifice 8 arranged in each converging section 7 for forming a round jet 9.
  • the orifices 8 are arranged on converging axes so that the two round water jets 9 leaving the orifices 8 collide with one another at a distance from the exit of the orifices 8.
  • the resulting single vertical jet 5 is shown in Fig. 2, where it is seen to have a fan-shape, instead of remaining circular.
  • the angle a of the fan jet results from the intersection of the forming jets 9 and is mainly a function of the angle ⁇ between the initial forming jets 9.
  • round orifices can be constructed of any suitable material, sapphire is desirable due to its relatively long working life.
  • Fig. 3 is a top view of the fan jet 5 produced by the intersecting initial jets 9.
