Description




BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION




1. Field of the Invention




The present invention relates to an injection apparatus of a gas-liquid mixed flow which is suitable for a jet flow to be used for variously washing automobiles, wall surfaces of buildings, bottles and dishes.




The present application is based on Japanese Patent Application No. Hei. 11-210081, which is incorporated herein by reference.




2. Description of the Related Art




As this kind of injection apparatus for a gas-liquid mixed flow, there has been known a type in which the gas injection port side is provided on the outside to enclosed the injection port of a liquid injection nozzle (Unexamined Japanese Patent Publication No. Sho. 60-261566) and a type in which the liquid injection side is provided on the outside to enclosed the injection port of the gas injection nozzle (Unexamined Japanese Utility Model Publication No. Hei. 5-63658). In the invention, there has been employed a type in which the gas injection port is provided on the outside of the injection port of the liquid injection nozzle. Referring to the introduction of a pressure gas to the injection apparatus according to the related art of the former type, it has been known that a gas flow path having an annular section is formed to enclose a rectilinear liquid flow path positioned in the central portion and a gas introducing duct is connected in a vertical direction with respect to the flow path having the annular section (see the above-mentioned publication). However, the pressure gas flowing through the introducing duct changes the direction of the flow vertically during the introduction. For this reason, the resistance of the flow path is correspondingly increased, and furthermore, the introducing duct is partially connected to a part of the circumference of the gas flow path having the annular section. Consequently, it has been technically hard to distribute the flow of the pressure gas in the gas flow path uniformly with respect to the annular section. For this reason, there have been technological drawbacks.




More specifically, the outflow speed of the pressure gas is increased, the flow of the pressure gas in the gas flow path is disturbed easily so that the gas-liquid mixed flow jetted from the nozzle is also affected. Consequently, a uniform and stable mixed flow is damaged easily. Moreover, if the disturbance of the flow of the pressure gas in the gas flow path is increased, the injection state is easily unstable. Therefore, an adjustable range related to the injection state also tends to be reduced. It has also been suggested that the number of introducing ducts to be installed is increased to introduce the pressure gas from a plurality of portions on the circumference of the gas path flow. However, the structure is made complicated and the formation of the uniform flow is restricted based on a structure.




SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION




In consideration of the above-mentioned conventional technological circumstances, the present invention has been developed and has an object to avoid an increase in the resistance of a flow path in a portion for introducing a pressure gas to an injection apparatus and to improve a uniform flow for the pressure gas to be obtained more smoothly with a simple structure, thereby enhancing the uniformity and stability of the gas-liquid mixed flow jetted from the nozzle and enlarging an adjustable range related to the injection state.




In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the invention provides an injection apparatus for a gas-liquid mixed flow which mixes and injects at least a pressure gas and a pressure liquid, a flow path for the pressure gas which is to be connected to a pressure gas feeder is formed almost rectilinearly, a liquid reservoir chamber to be connected to a pressure liquid feeder is provided in the flow path for the pressure gas, a sectional area of the flow path for the pressure fluid is gradually reduced to form an accelerating portion, an injection port for a liquid injection nozzle communicating with the liquid reservoir chamber is provided in the acceleration portion and a gas injection port is formed outside the injection port of the liquid injection nozzle. As described above, in the invention, the flow path for the pressure gas in the injection apparatus is formed almost rectilinearly. Therefore, the resistance of the flow path can be reduced. In addition, the pressure gas can flow smoothly without disturbance differently from the conventional example and the stable and good injection state having a large adjustable range can be obtained.




A gas injection port can be formed by an internal wall surface of the accelerating portion and an external wall surface of the liquid injection nozzle. Moreover, a throttling portion having a sectional area reduced may be provided on a nozzle for mixed flow injection on a downstream of the gas injection port. Furthermore, a plurality of injection ports may be provided on the liquid injection nozzle. In that case, the injection ports of the liquid injection nozzle may be arranged in a line and the gas injection port is formed flatly. Moreover, a part for forming the accelerating portion may be constituted exchangeably. Furthermore, a powder and granular material feeding portion may be provided on an upstream side of the injection port of the pressure gas. In that case, a liquid feeding portion for preventing residence of the powder and granular material may be provided on a downstream side of the powder and granular feeding portion. Moreover, a powder and granular material feeding portion ma be provided on an upstream side of the injection port of the pressure liquid. A detergent can be mixed into the pressure liquid.




Features and advantages of the invention will be evident from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments described in conjunction with the attached drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS




An embodiment of the invention is suitable for an injection apparatus to be used for variously washing automobiles, wall surfaces of buildings, bottles and dishes. As described above, it is sufficient that at least a gas-liquid mixed flow of a gas and a liquid is formed. It is also possible to mix a proper powder and granular material such as a polishing and cleaning material such as sodium hydrogencarbonate or alumina. Furthermore, a high-temperature gas or vapor may be used as the pressure gas to enhance detergency or an additive such as a surfactant may be added into the pressure liquid if necessary. Preferably, the liquid reservoir provided on the inside of the rectilinear flow path is provided on upstream of the injection port of the liquid injection nozzle and has some pressure accumulation volume and functions to smooth a pressure. Moreover, the form of the gas-liquid mixed flow injected from the injection apparatus can be adjusted depending on the specific dimension of each portion of the injection apparatus and the condition for introducing a pressure gas or a pressure liquid which is supplied to the injection apparatus. In the main form, a large amount of pressure gas is mainly added and a proper amount of liquid is added. The size of a droplet constituting the gas-liquid mixed flow including a fine foggy droplet and a big particle can be set depending on the treatment form by increasing or decreasing the amount of injection of the liquid supplied from the liquid injection nozzle, for example. If the nozzle for injecting a gas-liquid mixed flow and the liquid injection nozzle can be exchanged with each other and the size and the shape are varied, it is also possible to change, through the exchange of the nozzles, the size of each injection port, the state of inclination of the wall surface of the accelerating portion, the inside diameter of the nozzle and the spreading angle of a jet flow depending on the circumstances. For the pressure gas feeder, a blower such as a Roots blower or a turboblower, a reciprocating compressor or a rotary compressor, or a steam supply source can be selected and used. For the pressure liquid feeder, similarly, a non-volume type pump such as a turbopump or a volume type pump such as a reciprocating pump or a rotary pump can be selected and used.




An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1

is a circuit diagram schematically showing the main part of an embodiment in which the invention is applied to washing use. In

FIG. 1

, the reference numeral


1


denotes an injection apparatus according to the invention. A pressure gas feeder comprising a compressor


3


is connected to the introducing port of a pressure gas flow path


2


which is formed almost rectilinearly in the injection apparatus


1


. On the other hand, a pressure liquid feeder comprising a water tank


5


and a pump


6


is connected to the introducing port of a liquid reservoir


4


provided on the inside of the rectilinear flow path


2


. In the present embodiment, a powder and granular material feeder comprising a powder and granular material reservoir tank


7


and a delivery device


8


such as a screw conveyer is connected to the downstream side of the compressor


3


. Furthermore, a liquid feeder comprising a water tank


9


for preventing residence or condensation and a pump


10


which serves to prevent the powder and granular material from sticking to the internal wall of the flow path and washing the sticking powder and granular material is connected through a valve


11


to the downstream side of the powder and granular material feeder. The powder and granular material feeder and the liquid feeder for preventing the residence of the powder and granular material or the condensation can also be omitted depending on the circumstances. Moreover, the powder and granular material feeder can also be connected to the proper portion of a pressure liquid supply system connected to the introducing portion of the liquid reservoir


4


or the proper portion on this side of the injection port of the pressure gas.




In the use of the embodiment, a pressure gas is supplied from the compressor


3


into the flow path


2


of the injection apparatus


1


and pressure water is supplied from the water tank


5


to the liquid reservoir


4


through the pump


6


. The pressure gas is rectilinearly propagated along the flow path


2


, is accelerated in the accelerating section formed ahead thereof and is quickly injected from the gas injection port. The pressure liquid is injected from the liquid reservoir


4


toward the inside of the high-speed jet of the pressure gas supplied from the gas injection port, and both are mixed and are injected as a gas-liquid mixed flow from the nozzle


12


. In this case, the pressure gas is moved almost rectilinearly in the injection apparatus


1


. Therefore, the pressure gas flows smoothly without disturbance differently from the conventional art. Consequently, a stable and good injection state can be obtained within a wide range of mixing conditions. In the present embodiment, the pressure liquid flows in a direction orthogonal to an axis of the liquid reservoir


4


, and is non-compressive and resides in a reservoir chamber formed in the liquid reservoir


4


so that a pressure is smoothed. Therefore, the influence of the inflow direction rarely makes troubles and a good injection state can be obtained.

according to the present embodiment comprises a cylindrical apparatus body


13


, a gas introducing portion


14


screwed and coupled to the upstream side, and a nozzle


12


for a gas-liquid mixed flow screwed and coupled to the downstream side. A throttle portion having a sectional area reduced and serving to promote a mixture of a gas and a liquid can be provided in the downstream portion of a gas injection port of the nozzle


12


which will be described below. Moreover, an accelerating portion comprising 2-step inclined surfaces


15


and


16


having internal wall surfaces tapered is formed integrally on the upstream side of the nozzle


12


. By preparing various shapes of the accelerating portion such as an inclination, it is also possible to perform exchange depending on the working conditions. A hole portion formed in the apparatus body


13


has a larger diameter than that of the gas introducing portion


14


, and the liquid reservoir


4


is provided in the portion having a larger diameter. The liquid reservoir


4


is constituted by a reservoir body


17


and a liquid injection nozzle


18


screwed and coupled to the downstream side thereof. A liquid reservoir chamber


19


is formed in the reservoir body


17


, and an external wall surface on the upstream side is formed on a tapered guide surface


20


. Furthermore, a liquid introducing port portion


21


is screwed and coupled to the reservoir body


17


with communication with the liquid reservoir chamber


19


in a vertical direction. Moreover, a flow path


22


communicating with the liquid reservoir chamber


19


is formed in the liquid injection nozzle


18


, an injection port


23


is formed on a tip portion thereof as shown in

FIG. 3

, and an external surface on the downstream side is formed to form 2-step inclined surfaces


24


and


25


. Female screws


26


and


27


for connecting a supply tube are formed on the upstream side of each passage of the introducing ports


14


and


21


.




The liquid reservoir


4


is supported in the apparatus body


13


by screwing a screw shaft portion


28


into the liquid introducing part


21


to maintain a predetermined space defined between an inner peripheral surface of the apparatus main body


13


and an outer peripheral surface of the liquid reservoir


4


so as to form the flow path


2


. More specifically, the flow path


2


is formed by the internal passage of the gas introducing port portion


14


, a gap portion between the internal wall surface of the gas introducing port portion


14


and the guide surface


20


on the upstream side of the reservoir body


17


, a gap portion between the internal wall surface of the apparatus body


13


and the external wall surfaces of the reservoir body


17


and the liquid injection nozzle


18


, and a gap portion between the inclined surfaces


15


and


16


formed on the nozzle


12


and the inclined surfaces


24


and


25


formed on the liquid injection nozzle


18


. The sectional area of the flow path


2


of a pressure fluid is gradually reduced to form the accelerating portion by the gap portion between the inclined surfaces


15


and


16


and the inclined surfaces


24


and


25


, and a gas injection port


29


for a pressure gas is formed by the gap portion between the inclined surface


16


and the inclined surface


25


on the downstream side. More specifically, the gas injection port


29


is formed on the outside to enclose the injection port


23


of the liquid injection nozzle


18


in the acceleration portion. If the front and rear surfaces of the screw shaft portion


28


are formed on the inclined plane,the resistance of the flow path can be reduced. Moreover, a properly shaped support portion having a small air resistance may be provided as support means of the liquid reservoir


4


in addition to the screw shaft portion


28


if necessary.




The pressure gas introduced from the gas introducing port portion is rectilinearly fed in the flow path


2


formed almost rectilinearly, passes through a gap portion around the liquid reservoir


4


, is accelerated when passing through the gap portion between a first step inclined surfaces


15


and


24


constituting the accelerating portion, and is further accelerated when passing through the gap portion between the second step inclined surfaces


16


and


25


, and is injected at a high speed from the gas injection port


29


formed between the inclined surfaces


16


and


25


. On the other hand, the pressure liquid introduced to the liquid introducing port portion


21


resides in the liquid reservoir chamber


19


to smooth a pressure, passes through the flow path


22


and is injected into the central part of the gas flow injected at a high speed from the gas injection port


29


through the injection port


23


formed on the tip portion of the liquid injection nozzle


18


. The gas injection port


29


is formed in the middle portion of the inclined surface


16


constituting the accelerating portion. Therefore, the liquid injected from the injection port


23


of the liquid injection nozzle


18


is mixed into the gas injected at a high speed from the gas injection port


29


while being throttled during passing through the inside of the inclined surface


16


. Accordingly, the liquid and the gas are promoted to be throttled and mixed in the inside of the inclined surface


16


. Thus, a good gas-liquid mixed flow is obtained. The gas-liquid mixed flow is injected from the tip portion while the mixture is further promoted while passing through the nozzle


12


. By using the above-mentioned injection system


1


, the liquid injected at a high speed from the injection port


23


is mixed with the pressure gas injected at a high speed from the gas injection port


29


through the almost rectilinear flow path


2


having a small reduction in the speed, thereby forming a droplet, and further takes an energy from the injected gas and is sprayed onto the washed surface. Thus, a heavy dirt can also be removed.




The internal passage of the nozzle


12


for injecting the gas-liquid mixed flow may have the same diameter over the whole length or the injection side of the tip may be tapered to have a slightly larger or smaller diameter. Moreover, the throttle portion


30


having the reduced sectional area of the flow path is formed on the downstream side of the gas injection port


29


in the nozzle


12


. Consequently, the gas-liquid mixture can be promoted. Furthermore, it is possible to adjust a region on which the gas-liquid mixed flow is sprayed through the spreading angle on the downstream side of the throttle portion


30


.

is gradually reduced to form an accelerating portion. Female screws


48


and


49


for connecting a supply tube are formed on the upstream side of the internal passage of the introducing port portions


34


and

.




The liquid reservoir


41


is supported in the apparatus body


33


by screwing a screw shaft portion


50


into the liquid introducing part


45


to maintain a predetermined space defined between an inner peripheral surface of the apparatus main body


33


and an outer peripheral surface of the liquid reservoir


41


so as to form the flow path for the pressure gas as shown in FIG.


8


. More specifically, the flow path


51


for the pressure gas according to the present embodiment is formed by the internal passage of the gas introducing port portion


34


, a gap portion between the internal wall surface of the gas introducing port portion


34


and the guide surface


44

media water stock solution tank


53

54


are connected, through valves


55


and


56


, to the middle of a water tank


5


provided on the upstream side of the liquid introducing port portion


21


, respectively. In the present embodiment, the valves

and


56


are switched adjustably. Consequently, it is possible to adjust the presence of the mixture of a powder and granular material and a detergent into the pressure liquid supplied from the liquid injection nozzle


18


through the liquid introducing port portion


21


and the amount of the mixture thereof. In that case, it is also possible to select the way of supply depending on the type of the powder and granular material.




According to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained.




Since the flow path for the pressure gas in the injection apparatus is formed almost rectilinearly, the resistance of the flow path can be reduced. Accordingly, the smooth flowing state of the pressure gas is obtained, and furthermore, the capability of a pressure gas generator can be reduced effectively.




The pressure gas is wholly introduced from the pressure gas generator to the flow path in the injection apparatus, and the flow of the pressure gas is formed almost rectilinearly. Consequently, the flow can be uniformly formed over the whole flow path section. Accordingly, the flow of the pressure gas can be smoothly obtained without disturbance differently from the conventional art. Consequently, a stable good injection state can be obtained.




The injection state is stabilized by the uniform flow of the pressure gas. Therefore, the adjustable range for the injection state can also be enlarged.




The gas jet is injected to enclose the liquid jet in the accelerating portion of the pressure gas, thereby forming the gas-liquid mixed flow. Therefore, the mixture can be promoted and a good gas-liquid mixed flow can be obtained.




Although the invention has been described in its preferred form with a certain degree of particularity, it is understood that the present disclosure of the preferred form can be changed in the details of construction and in the combination and arrangement of parts without departing from the spirit and the scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
