- the first blocking element 134 of the first pulse valve 110 and a second blocking element 192 of the second pulse valve 172 are mechanically coupled to each other, so that no separate control for timing the pulses of the first pulsed beam to the pulses of the second pulsed beam is necessary ,
- the mechanical coupling can take place, for example, by means of a drive belt 196, which is in operative connection with the common rotary drive 190, the first blocking element 134 and the second blocking element 192, so that a rotational movement from the common rotary drive 190 to the first blocking element 134 and the second blocking element 192 is transferable.
- first pulse valve 110 and the second pulse valve 172 differ from the pulse valve 110 of the first embodiment of the jet generating device 100 shown in FIG. 3 in that the first blocking element 134 and the second blocking element 192 each have a separate rotary drive 136 (not shown). Have extension on which the drive belt 196 engages.
- a particular time offset between the pulses of the first pulsed beam and the pulses of the second pulsed beam may be fixed by adjusting a rotational orientation of the first stop 134 and, independently thereof, a rotational orientation of the second stop 192 , Due to the mechanical coupling by means of the drive belt 196, the rotational orientations of the first locking element 134 and of the second locking element 192 are fixed relative to one another.
- the first locking member 134 and the second locking member 192 rotate with same frequency while maintaining the previously set Drehauscardi relative to each other.
- an offset between the exit times of the pulses of the first pulsed jet at the first fluid outlet 124 and the exit times of the pulses of the second pulsed jet at the second fluid outlet 176 can be freely selected.
- this offset is freely selectable between about zero and, for example approximately the period of the pulse train (corresponding to half of the reciprocal of the rotational frequency of the blocking elements 134, 192).
- a separate rotary drive for the second blocking element 192 of the second pulse valve 172 is dispensable by the common rotary drive 190.
- alternately emitting pulses of the first pulsed beam and pulses of the second pulsed beam is possible, in particular, when the first blocking element 134 and the second blocking element 192 are coupled to the common rotary drive 190 such that the first land region 154 of the first locking element 134 is then aligned substantially parallel to the flow direction 118, when a second web portion 194 of the second locking member 192 is aligned substantially perpendicular to the flow direction 118 (see Fig. 9).
- the angular difference between the Drehauscardi the first locking element 134 and the Drehauscardi of the second locking element 192 is then 90 °.
- the fifth embodiment of the jet generating apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 9 is identical in structure and function to the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 8, the above description of which is so far referred to.
- the beam generating device 100 comprises one or more of the damping elements 164 illustrated in FIGS. 5 to 7.
