Description

Diffuser device

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a diffuser device for machines that need sprinklers characterized by having a particular configuration combined with the use of an elastomer that allow self-cleaning of salt and lime inlays.

Background of the invention

There are machines that require the use of internal water sprinklers, either for cleaning, cooling or other uses.

These sprinklers can be fed with a common line on which said sprinklers are installed. He Outflow jet control is determined by the way that It has internal and outlet. When these devices offer a jet according to a flat sheet or other configuration adequate are acting as diffusers.

When the machine stops, some of the water that  has circulated along the common driving line or the one that was in the inside of the diffuser remains stagnant and that is when it produces to a greater extent the precipitation of dissolved salts in the Water.

Precipitation of salts in diffusers, as the outputs are small, they produce bottlenecks, or in the worst case, the complete closure of the water outlet.

At this time, clean the diffusers it involves disassembling each of them from the power line and proceed to a work that is often manual and tedious.

The present invention proposes a device whose claimed characteristics give rise to a diffuser capable of detach itself from possible salt precipitation or lime; and when this is not possible, it allows to act manually without Need to disassemble it.

Description of the invention

The present invention consists of a device  diffuser. This comprises a tubular main body that allows the passage of the liquid inside, where the liquid is capable of pass from the base where there is a seat that serves as connection between the power line and said main body to an outlet where the projection of the liquid occurs.

The main body is made of a material deformable elastomeric with elastic resilience. This feature is what allows the easy cleaning of the Two ways device mainly.

One is when the device is powered. He liquid blow, water usually causes deformations that they release the inlays that have formed on the surface of the device.

The second mode is applicable when there is some type of lime inlay or other rainfall that has been accumulated and have not been able to detach themselves with the flow changes. This is the one that is achieved by deforming with the finger pressure the device. In this way the degree of deformation is greater and allows all those to be released precipitation formed on surfaces (mainly internal) of the device.

The deformability makes the surfaces where the salts are precipitated do not remain adhered as the precipitation is rigid and does not deform with the device. The result is detachment.

The detailed exposition of the invention consider a particular way to configure the device with additional advantages The particular ways of configuring this device according to claims 2 to 8 are considered incorporated by reference to this description.

Description of the drawings

This descriptive report is complemented, with a set of drawings, illustrative of the preferred example and never Limitations of the invention.

Figure 1 shows an exemplary embodiment of  a power line common to several diffuser devices according to an example of the invention. One of the diffuser devices is removed from his seat to allow observing several details.

Figure 2 shows the same example of embodiment of the invention in a side view.

Figure 3 shows a plan view of the same example as figure 2.

Detailed statement of the invention

Figure 1 shows as an example a line of feed (1) of water that has several perforations (1.1) where install diffusers (2) like the one of the invention.

In this figure 1 diffusers (2) are shown according to  an example of realization whose details are included in the views of figures 2 and 3.

The diffuser device (2) according to the example of realization is constituted in a single body, in material elastomeric with deformability and subsequent capacity elastic recovery when the deformation force ceases.

The diffuser device (2) is formed by a tubular main body (2.1) in cylindrical configuration although It could show other kinds of sections.

The base shown on the right according to the orientation of figure 2 has a seat (2.3) also according to a tubular section of smaller diameter than the main body (2.1).

The seat (2.3) turns out to be after a staggering due to changing diameters. Said seat (2.3) is the one that is inserted in the perforation (1.1) of the line (1) of feeding.

The retention of the diffuser device (2) is achieved by the presence of a retention projection (2.3.1) that in This case has annular highlight configuration.

The liquid, preferably water, enters through the tubular section that serves as a seat (2.3), crosses the interior of the tubular body of the main body (2.1) until reaching the exit.

The output, in this exemplary embodiment, is a groove (2.2.1) arranged on a convex projection (2.2) arranged in opposition to the seat (2.3) of the diffuser device (2).

The convex projection (2.2) does not cover the entire diameter of the main body (2.1) but is smaller dimensions leading to staggering (2.5).

The stepping (2.5) causes stiffening  of the border if compared to the configuration you would adopt if the convex projection (2.2) reach body diameter tubular.

Case of having present some type of precipitate  limestone or salts previously dissolved in the water that feeds to the diffuser device (2), the impact produced by the opening of the liquid feeding (mainly water) causes a deformation by internal pressure. This deformation is greater. when the grooved configuration (2.2.1) breaks the symmetry with respect to the axis of the main body (2.1).

The deformation of the walls imposes the separation of precipitates that are rigid and do not support maintaining the deformed configuration on the contact surface.

If the precipitate occurs in a area where there is almost no deformation or the impact of the liquid is not enough, a slight pressure with the fingers forces a greater deformation that favors the detachment of scale.

In the worst case, the ability to deformation of the main body (1) also favors easy withdrawal of the power line to access the interior and the subsequent reinsertion into drilling (1.1).

In this exemplary embodiment, the groove (2.2.1) imposes a preferred orientation of the diffuser device (2) with respect to the power line (1). This orientation is easily achieved with the presence of a guide (2.4) that emerges laterally in the form of "L" that adapts to the tubular profile which acts as a power line (1) forcing a specific orientation to the diffuser device (2) once installed.

In this case, the guide has a nerve reinforcement (2.4.1) that stiffens to maintain the position of the shoulder in "L" of the guide (2.4).
