Definitions
- the invention relates to an apparatus for showering or spraying water as dispersed droplets, comprising a water pump and a spray head, the water pump being connected by way of a water pipe to the spray head.
- US-A-5934558 uses high pressure air to force most of the water in a vertical tube out through the nozzle to provide a short blast of water to a height controlled by the air pressure.
- An object of the invention is to provide such a spray or shower apparatus, which is capable of dispersing drops of sprayed water in such a way that, as the dispersed water drops of the spray are contacted by light from the sun or a floodlight, a visible rainbow will result.
- Fig. 1 illustrates a water pump 2 which takes in water by way of a bottom valve 1 from any water supply (natural reserves, reservoirs, wells, etc.), and propels the water by way of a water pipe 2a to an ejector 4 which is connected to the spray head 5 by way of a high and rigid riser 7.
- Compressed air is propelled by a pneumatic compressor 3 through an air conduit 3a to the pressure side of the ejector 4.
- the water pipe 2a Upstream of the ejector 4, the water pipe 2a is provided with a branch pipe 9 for supplying water to one of the branches of a Y-fitting 8, while the air conduit 3a connects to the other branch of the Y-fitting 8.
- the mixture of water and air is supplied to the pressure side of the ejector 4.
- Discharge pressure is increased by compressed air, and the spray head in particular is supplied with a mixture of air and water, which has received a thorough blending in the ejector 4.
- the water sprays or jets discharging from the head 5 consist of dispersed water droplets, whereby a visible rainbow is produced by sunlight or artificial light coming to contact therewith.
- spotlights of at least 1000 W are used as coloured or bright lights and a floodlight 6 or floodlights is or are directed towards the spray of water droplets.
- the floodlight 6 is positioned such that the rainbow is best visible from the most common viewing direction.
- the ejectors 4 are commercially available and commonly used e.g. for providing hydraulic plants.
- the head 5 is e.g. a dispersing brass nozzle and the riser 7 is e.g. a copper pipe.
- the pump 2 has an intake capacity of e.g. 2,2 kW and the pneumatic compressor 3 has a pressure of e.g. 200-300 kPa (2-4 kg/cm 2 ).
- the compressor pressure is selected in such a way that, given the pressure and delivery height of the pump, the Y-fitting 8 is supplied with water and air at an appropriate ratio for the ejector 4 to operate effectively and for a sufficient amount of air in order to disperse water droplets discharging from the head 5.
- the junction point between the water pipe 2a and the ejector 4 can be provided with a one-way valve 10.

Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to an apparatus for showering or spraying water as dispersed droplets, comprising a water pump and a spray head, the water pump being connected by way of a water pipe to the spray head.
-
US-A-5934558 uses high pressure air to force most of the water in a vertical tube out through the nozzle to provide a short blast of water to a height controlled by the air pressure. - An object of the invention is to provide such a spray or shower apparatus, which is capable of dispersing drops of sprayed water in such a way that, as the dispersed water drops of the spray are contacted by light from the sun or a floodlight, a visible rainbow will result.
- This object is accomplished by an apparatus of the invention, having its characterizing features set forth in the appended
claim 1. The dependent claims disclose preferred embodiments of the invention. - One exemplary embodiment of the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which
- Fig. 1
- shows a general diagram for an apparatus of the invention and
- Fig. 2
- shows in more detail an arrangement for pipe elements associated with a
spray head 5 and for an ejector pump. -
Fig. 1 illustrates awater pump 2 which takes in water by way of abottom valve 1 from any water supply (natural reserves, reservoirs, wells, etc.), and propels the water by way of awater pipe 2a to anejector 4 which is connected to thespray head 5 by way of a high andrigid riser 7. Compressed air is propelled by apneumatic compressor 3 through anair conduit 3a to the pressure side of theejector 4. Upstream of theejector 4, thewater pipe 2a is provided with abranch pipe 9 for supplying water to one of the branches of a Y-fitting 8, while theair conduit 3a connects to the other branch of the Y-fitting 8. Thus, the mixture of water and air is supplied to the pressure side of theejector 4. Discharge pressure is increased by compressed air, and the spray head in particular is supplied with a mixture of air and water, which has received a thorough blending in theejector 4. By virtue of this, the water sprays or jets discharging from thehead 5 consist of dispersed water droplets, whereby a visible rainbow is produced by sunlight or artificial light coming to contact therewith. In the case of artificial light, spotlights of at least 1000 W are used as coloured or bright lights and afloodlight 6 or floodlights is or are directed towards the spray of water droplets. Thefloodlight 6 is positioned such that the rainbow is best visible from the most common viewing direction. - The
ejectors 4 are commercially available and commonly used e.g. for providing hydraulic plants. Thehead 5 is e.g. a dispersing brass nozzle and theriser 7 is e.g. a copper pipe. Thepump 2 has an intake capacity of e.g. 2,2 kW and thepneumatic compressor 3 has a pressure of e.g. 200-300 kPa (2-4 kg/cm2). The compressor pressure is selected in such a way that, given the pressure and delivery height of the pump, the Y-fitting 8 is supplied with water and air at an appropriate ratio for theejector 4 to operate effectively and for a sufficient amount of air in order to disperse water droplets discharging from thehead 5. - In order to ensure actuation of the apparatus, the junction point between the
water pipe 2a and theejector 4 can be provided with a one-way valve 10.
Claims (3)
- Apparatus for showering or spraying water as dispersed droplets, comprising a water pump (2) and a spray head (5), the water pump being connected by way of a water pipe (2a) to the spray head (5), characterized in that the water pipe (2a) is provided upstream of the spray head (5) with an ejector (4), to whose pressure side is connected a Y-fitting (8) to whose two branches are connected an air conduit (3a) extending from a pneumatic compressor (3) and a branch pipe (9), with which is provided the water pipe (2a) upstream of the ejector (4), respectively.
- Apparatus for showering or spraying water as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that between the spray head (5) and the ejector (4) is a high and rigid riser (7).
- Apparatus for showering or spraying water as set forth in claim 1 or 2, characterized in that a floodlight (6) is directed towards the spray of water droplets discharging from the spray head (5).
