    Abstract: A washout system for a concrete mixer vehicle includes a plurality of valves, a plurality of nozzles, and a controller. The plurality of valves are configured to (i) be fluidly coupled to a pump and a fluid tank and (ii) receive a fluid from the pump. One or more of the plurality of nozzles are fluidly coupled to a respective one of the plurality of valves. Each of the plurality of nozzles are configured to provide the fluid to a respective target when the respective one of the plurality of valves is selectively activated to an open position. The controller is configured to monitor a plurality of washout parameters during operation of the concrete mixer vehicle and initiate one of a plurality of washout modes in response to a subset of the plurality of washout parameters being satisfied for the one of the plurality of washout modes.

    Abstract: A fluid ejection head having a fluid supply body having a nosepiece with at least one fluid supply port. A pedestal extends outwards from the exterior of the nosepiece near the fluid supply port. A semiconductor chip mounting surface is formed on the pedestal. A flexible circuit bonding surface, formed by a plurality of ribs, also extends outwards from the exterior surface of the nosepiece adjacent the perimeter of the pedestal. A damage reducing structure for reducing damage to a semiconductor chip mounted on the pedestal is located between the pedestal and the flexible circuit bonding surface. Similarly, a damage reducing structure is located between each adjacent pair of the plurality of ribs. In each case, the damage reducing structure may be void space that isolates and reduces damage caused by shock waves traveling through the fluid supply body to the chip mounting surface and the chip mounted thereon.

    Abstract: An aerosol discharge assembly including an aerosol cap sized to frictionally fit atop a cylindrically-shaped aerosol can having a centrally located longitudinal axis and circular cross-section, the cylindrically-shaped aerosol can containing a pressurized fluid therein and a valve stem which, when depressed, discharges fluid there through. The aerosol cap is also cylindrically shaped having a longitudinal axis coextensive with the longitudinal axis of the cylindrically-shaped aerosol can. The aerosol cap further includes an open channel located along its longitudinal axis exposing the valve stem there through and a hose receiving channel exposed atop the aerosol cap. An actuator is sized to slip fit within the open channel and to slide within it when being depressed by a user, the actuator including a fluid inlet port sized to receive the valve stem and a fluid output port in fluid communication with the fluid inlet port such that when the actuator is depressed, pressurized fluid from the aerosol can is caused to enter the fluid inlet port, travel through the actuator and discharge through the fluid outlet port. The assembly also includes a flexible hose having a first end and a second end, the first end being sized to capture the fluid outlet port, the second end including a fixture for passing the pressurized fluid there through, the flexible hose being sized to frictionally fit within the hose receiving channel when not in use, the assembly also including a safety tab positioned atop and emanating from the actuator which when in place, prevents the actuator from being depressed within the open channel.

    Abstract: A de-ice apparatus is configured to remove ice buildup in containers or other locations by melting the ice using a de-ice component and to remove waste fluid using a vacuum component. The de-ice component causes discharge of pressurized fluid to melt ice. The de-ice component may include a base with guide features configured to engage an opening of the container. The de-ice component may direct a spray of the pressurized fluid into the container to melt the ice. The de-ice component may include a pressure regulator valve to selectively regulate a resulting force of the fluid sprayed into the container, which may enable a user to avoid damaging internal components located within the container. The vacuum component may cause the pressurized fluid to flow through a high pressure nozzle to create a vacuum effect at a suction inlet, which can extract waste fluid and/or other debris from the container.
