- FR 2 617 736 is disclosed a device which makes it possible by starting with, on the one hand, water under pressure and, on the other hand, water, to which chemical or bactericidal products have been added, to produce foam intended for cleaning surfaces or objects.
- the device consists of two consecutive chambers. In the first chamber compressed air enters by means of a tube pierced with holes. Water under pressure, to which chemical products have been added, enters by means of the tube. Then the mixture of air under pressure and of water under pressure produces foam. This foam is conveyed into a decompression chamber, which completes the mixing of the products. The volume of the chambers is calculated to obtain an optimum quality of the foam.

- the mixing unit comprises switching means for switching between the provision of water alone and water mixed with the first cleaning agent and air for the provision of foam, and water mixed with the second cleaning agent.
- Cleaning procedures used in for example the food producing industry typically involve an initial flushing/wetting of the contaminated area, surfaces, processing machines and other equipment, which need to be cleaned. This flushing is usually followed by application of foam to said area, surfaces, processing machines and other equipment. This foam is then flushed away after a certain period of time. Finally, said area, surfaces, processing machines and other equipment is disinfected by the application of a disinfectant. In some cases this disinfectant is removed by the flushing with clean water. This means that there is typically a successive change between the following procedures:
- one device for the provision of water e.g. a water hose or high-pressure cleaner
- one device for foaming e.g. a water hose or high-pressure cleaner
- one device for foaming e.g. a water hose or high-pressure cleaner
- one device for the provision of the disinfectant e.g. a water hose or high-pressure cleaner
- one device for foaming e.g. a foaming agent
- one device for the provision of the disinfectant e.g. a single mixing unit with switching means as described above, it is possible to successively change between all of the above-mentioned cleaning processes.
- the second cleaning agent is a disinfectant
- the first cleaning agent is a foaming agent when being mixed with water and pressurized air, e.g. from compressor
- an operator merely needs to switch successively between three processes.
- there is no need to change equipment which is both time saving and reduces the risks of errors.

- the provided pressurized air has a pressure of between 2 bar and 10 bar, more preferable a pressure of between 4 bar and 6 bar, wherein the provided pressurized air always has a lower pressure than the pressure of the provided pressurized water.
- the compressor, mixing unit, and water pump may according to some embodiments of the cleaning device according to the invention be placed inside a cleaning device housing.
- said cleaning device housing is placed on a wheeled chassis, whereby a mobile cleaning device is provided.
- the air gap completely surrounds the outlet opening of the injector.

- the method may according to a yet further embodiment comprise the step of changing the quantity of foam produced per time unit by exchanging the injector with another injector having a different injector inlet area and/or a different injector outlet area, and keeping the water pressure and air pressure unaltered.
- the method may according to a further embodiment comprise the step of choosing the injector, and thereby the injector inlet and outlet area in dependence of what kind of foam is to be produced and/or what kind of first cleaning agent is to be used for creating said foam.
- the method may according to a further embodiment comprise the step of choosing the injector, and thereby the injector inlet and outlet area in dependence of the available water pressure and/or available air pressure.
- the ratio between the area of the gap and the area of the injector inlet is a constant for one different injector that is used to change the quantity of foam produced.
- One mixing unit A which is a mixing unit according to the invention, where air is blown in to the mixing unit around the injector opening and in a direction parallel to the flow of fluid out of the injector opening
- a mixing unit B wherein the air is blown into the mixing unit though a hole downstream and beside the injector outlet and in a direction substantially parallel to the flow of fluid out of the injector.
- the two mixing units A and B were then used to generate foam, which was blown onto a vertical, smooth wall surface.
- each mixing unit was used to generate foam into a 200 liter plastic barrel, and the time it took to fill each barrel was measured.
- the results of these barrel tests were that the barrel which received foam from mixing unit A was filled with foam in a considerably shorter time than the barrel which received foam from mixing unit B. Since both mixing units in all experiments were supplied the same quantity of cleaning agent, water and air under equal pressure conditions, it may be concluded from these experiments that the foaming facilitated by the mixing unit according to the invention is significantly more effective than those known in the art.
