    摘要: A rotatable high pressure tool for cleaning hollow objects by forcing a high pressure fluid such as water from nozzles to create cleaning jet streams and use jet reaction at the tool to continually change the direction of the jet nozzles about a longitudinal axis of the tool while the jets are carried by a cross body rotating about an axis essentially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. Each of the nozzles provides the same amount of reaction torque to rotate the cross body about its axis. This torque is selectively adjustable at the tool before use by similarly releasing, changing and reclamping the orientation of all nozzles relative to the cross body and by changing the discharge diameters of uniformly sized nozzle tips. The adjustable nozzles are interconnected by gearing so that the changes in orientation of all nozzles during adjustment will be the same. The rotational speed of the nozzles and main body during use are further controlled by being subjected to a torque drag of a viscous liquid between two closely spaced surfaces.

    摘要: A system and method for propelling a hose, including: a system housing and a tractor element disposed in the housing. The tractor element includes: a tractor housing with a through-bore; and a protrusion extending into the through-bore. The system includes: a hose assembly including a substantially helical coil disposed about a hose; and an actuator for rotating the tractor housing with respect to the system housing. The tractor element is fixed in the system housing with respect to axial movement; and the hose assembly can be disposed in the through-bore so that the protrusion contacts a portion of the coil. As the tractor housing is rotated in a rotational direction: the protrusion exerts a displacement force on the coil; and the hose assembly reacts to the displacement force by displacing in an axial direction.

    摘要: A system for storing, rotating and feeding a high pressure hose. A first portion of the hose is disposable about the drum and a guide arm engages a second portion of the hose. An actuator assembly rotates a cage and the guide arm so that the guide arm rotates relative to the cage such that the hose is rotated. Relative rotation in one direction causes the first portion of the hose to uncoil from the drum and displace along the guide arm and causes a third portion of the high pressure hose in an output port to displace out of the output port away from the guide arm. Relative rotation in an opposite direction causes the second portion of the high pressure hose to coil about the drum and causes the third portion of the high pressure hose to displace into the housing.

    摘要: A multiple nozzle swivel assembly for mounting on a cable support stretched across the interior of a chamber to be scrubbed with high velocity jet streams or stretched along an array of objects to be cleaned as the swivel assembly traverses the cable from one end to the other. The cable passes through a coaxial bore in an elongated shaft carrying both a relatively stationary an input member for supply of high pressure liquid to the assembly and a rotatable output nozzle-carrying spray head member. The shaft is monolithic with multiple angularly spaced bores around the central bore and parallel thereto and sealed from the central bore carry high pressure liquid from the input member to the output spray head member with very low drag bearings and liquid seals being provided between relatively rotating liquid carrying components. The assembly includes multi-directioned nozzle elements on a rotatable spray head. Positive drive to rotate the spray head is achieved with a rotational speed controlling motor. With the aid of low drag forces at bearings and rotating liquid seals, the spray head may be self rotated by reaction forces of jet streams from the head. The assembly may be pulled along the cable by an auxiliary device or it may be self-propelled along the cable by reaction of jet streams. For pulling the assembly along the cable a swivelled pulling bail is attached to the shaft.

    摘要: A high pressure liquid nozzle housing encloses a self-rotating speed-controlled nozzle. A cylindrical sleeve in the housing forms an inwardly facing friction surface engageable by a nozzle-driven friction generating speed control mechanism to provide increasing retarding force on the nozzle as nozzle speed increases for controlling maximum nozzle rotational speed. The speed control mechanism includes a radially expandable helical coil spring rotatable with the nozzle with its windings at low nozzle speeds slightly spaced from the sleeve. An input end of the coil spring is driven by the nozzle structure in a direction tending to unwind the spring and increase its outer diameter in response to rotation of the nozzle. An output end of the coil spring rotatably drives a cluster of centrifugal weights which are spring biased away from the sleeve and which at low nozzle rotation speeds also remain spaced from the sleeve. At higher speeds of nozzle rotation the weights move outwardly and frictionally engage the sleeve and provide a drag on the output end of the spring to aid in unwinding the spring, increasing its diameter and moving it with progressively increasing force into friction creating engagement with the sleeve to provide progressively increased retarding force against nozzle rotation as nozzle speed increases. The weights and spring retarding forces combine, but the spring retarding force is several times the retarding at the weights when an equilibrium between retarding forces and opposing jet stream nozzle reaction is reached at maximum nozzle speed.

    摘要: A flow path switching valve is disclosed that can be operated remotely simply by turning flow on and off. The switching valve may be incorporated into the body of a high pressure nozzle. In one embodiment a mid portion of the valve body has at least one passage therein leading from a central axial bore to first and second external ports. A poppet member received in the central axial bore directs fluid flow in a first position to the first external ports. The poppet member, when in a second position, closes the central axial bore through the outlet end of the valve body and permits fluid flow through the second set of external ports. Selection of the different flow paths is made by simply reducing flow through the valve below a predetermined fluid flow threshold and then increasing the flow rate above the threshold.
