SPRAY NOZZLES FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to improvements in or relating to spray nozzles. More particularly, the invention relates to an improved spray nozzle and to a method of forming a spray.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the invention, a spray nozzle includes a nozzle, an apertured diffuser element of coniform, and support means to support the diffuser element opposite and spaced from the nozzle outlet and diverging away from the nozzle.
Further according to the invention a method of forming a spray includes directing a jet of liquid onto an apertured diffuser element of coniform which diverges in the flow direction of the jet or liquid.
The method may further include the step of deflecting washoff liquid from the diffuser element into the direction of flow of the jet of liquid. Furthermore, the washoff liquid may be deflected in adjacent zones of different degrees of divergence circumferentially spaced about the diffuser element.
The diffuser element may be of hollow concave form, and may be a curved cross-sectional profile.
The apertures of the diffuser element may be spaced about its polar axis. These apertures may be round, elliptical, triangular, rectangular, segmental, or of any other convenient shape. The side or sides of each of these apertures may conveniently diverge in a direction away from the nozzle relative to an axis parallel to the polar axis.
The inclination of the radially remote side of an aperture from the polar axis may be proportional to its distance from the said polar axis. Consequently, the apertures diverge in the direction of divergence of the diffuser element.
In one form, the support means may include at least two ribs fast with the nozzle and with the diffuser element.
A spray nozzle according to the invention may include an annular deflector element around the diffuser element and mounted with a radial clearance defined between the elements.
Conveniently, the annular deflector element may have a plurality surfaces, having different degrees of divergence from the nozzle.
If desired, a spray nozzle according to the invention may be molded as a single integral unit in a synthetic plastic material.
According to a further feature of the invention, a spray nozzle includes a nozzle, an apertured diffuser element, support means to support the diffuser element opposite and spaced from the nozzle outlet, and deflecting means around the diffuser element to deflect washoff liquid from the rear side of the diffuser element relative to the nozzle in a direction away from the nozzle.
The deflecting means may comprise an annular element radially spaced from the diffuser element and having a plurality of circumferentially spaced deflecting surfaces at different degrees of divergence from the nozzle,
The invention is described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 shows a section on line l-l of the spray nozzle shown in FIG. 2; and
FIG. 2 shows a section line II--ll of the spray nozzle shown in FIG. 1.
Reference numeral 110 indicates generally a spray nozzle consisting ofa nozzle l2 and an apertured diffuser element 14. The nozzle has a tapering bore 16 and an outlet 18, and has a serew-threaded section 20. The element 14 diverges away from the nozzle 12.
The diffuser element 14 is of coniform and is more particularly of a hollow concave form. The axial profile of the diffuser element 14 is curved smoothly as shown in FIG. 2. The curve of the profile of the rear side of the diffuser element relative to the nozzle may for instance be circular or parabolic. If desired, the profile may be wholly or partially linear, or wholly or partially curved.
Radially spaced concentric rows 22 of apertures 24 are provided through the diffuser element 14. In each row 22, the apertures 24 are circumferentially spaced. The apertures 24 shown in the drawings are of angular cross section but they may also be of round or curved cross section.
Two ribs 26 are provided for supporting the diffuser element 14 on the nozzle 12 in line with and spaced from the nozzle outlet 18. An annular element 28 is provided fast with the ends 30 of the ribs 26. The annular element 28 extends around the diffuser element 14 and is radially spaced from its periphery. In addition to the rib ends 30, lugs 32 are provided for securing the diffuser element 14 to the annular element 28.
The annular element 28 has circumferentially spaced deflecting surfaces 34 and 36. The surfaces 34 and 36 al' ternate and are inclined at different angles to the axis 38 of the nozzle 12 and of the diffuser element 14. Raised ribs 39 separate surfaces 34 and 36.
The apertures 24 in the diffuser element 14 are of tapering form and diverge in the direction of divergence of the diffuser element. Furthermore, the sides 24.1, 24.2, 243, 24. 4 of the apertures 24 diverge away from the nozzle relative to axes 24.5 parallel to the polar axis. The inclination of each side 24.2 may be proportional to its distance from the axis 38. The sides 24.2 are extended slightly by providing projections 24.6 which assist in guiding the spray in the direction of the sides 24.2.
In use, the screw-threaded section 20 of the nozzle ll2 is screwed into a liquid supply line. Liquid under pressure is ejected through the nozzle onto the dliffuser element 14. The diffuser element deflects the jet 19 of liquid so that a sheet of liquid 19.1 flows across its divergent exterior surface. The liquid enters the apertures 24 which cause the liquid to be diffused into droplets. The droplets emerging from the apertures 24 form a spray at the rearward side of the diffuser element, i.e. on the remote side from the nozzle. washoff liquid l9.2 from the diffuser element 14 strikes the incline surfaces 34 and 36 of the annular element 28. The surfaces 34 and 36 deflect the washoff liquid in the direction of spray. By being differently inclined, the surfaces 34 and 36 cause the washoff liquid to be deflected into two spaced concentric zones, 34.l and 36.1. The surfaces 36 are extended slightly by providing projections 36.2 which assist in guiding the spray in the direction of the surfaces 36.
The spray nozzle 10 may be of a suitable synthetic plastic material, In one material particular method of manufacture it is molded as a single unit in a synthetic plastic material. The divergent shapes of the apertures 24 allows a mold part used in the manufacture for forming the apertures 24 to be axially withdrawn from the apertures in the molding of the spray nozzle. This feature of the invention is advantageous to keeping the number of mold components to a minimum when a composite mold is used.
The spray nozzle 10 may be employed to form a spray in the cooling of liquids. It may for instance be used in cooling towers or ponds to cool hot water.
An advantage of a spray nozzle according to the invention is that the liquid jet issuing from the nozzles strikes the diffuser element at an angle to the exterior surface of the diffuser ele ment. This is advantageous in preventing blocking of the apertures in the diffuser element. A further advantage is that little or no liquid is deflected back in a direction away from the spray. The invention is further advantageous in obtaining substantially uniform liquid distribution by forming a spray zone and one or more zones of deflected washoff liquid around the spray zone.
