Two fluid spray equipment
View Patent ↗A two fluid spray equipment includes: two fluid nozzles of a plurality of systems; a water supply apparatus for supplying the pressurized water at common pressure; a compressed air supply apparatus for supplying the compressed gas at common pressure; and a plurality of spray control units for controlling spray of the two fluid nozzle of each of the plurality of systems, wherein each of the plurality of spray control units includes a water pressure control unit for performing control to reduce pressure of the pressurized water supplied from the water supply apparatus based on a spray command value without pressurization, and an air pressure control unit for controlling pressure of the compressed gas supplied from the compressed air supply apparatus based on the spray command value.
1. A two fluid spray equipment comprising:
two fluid nozzles of a plurality of systems for mixing and spraying pressurized water and a compressed gas;
pressurized water supply for supplying the pressurized water to the two fluid nozzles of the plurality of systems from a common pressurized water source;
compressed gas supply for supplying the compressed gas at common pressure to the two fluid nozzles of the plurality of systems from a common compressed gas source; and
a plurality of spray control circuits provided in each of the plurality of systems for controlling a spray amount of the two fluid nozzle of each of the plurality of systems,
wherein each of the plurality of spray control circuits is configured to control pressure of the compressed gas supplied from the compressed gas supply based on a spray command value for controlling the spray amount, and
the pressurized water supply is configured to:
obtain the spray amount from each of the plurality of spray control circuits,
determine required water pressure required by each of the plurality of spray control circuits according to the spray amount obtained from each of the plurality of spray control circuits;
set a water pressure command value to a highest water pressure among the required water pressures from each of the plurality of spray control circuits, and
control water pressure of a water supply pump for supplying the pressurized water based on the water pressure command value.
2. The two fluid spray equipment according to claim 1 , wherein, on condition that a spray control circuit of the plurality of spray control circuits cannot perform one of control of water pressure and control of pressure of the compressed gas, the spray control circuit is configured to fix one pressure and control the other pressure based on the spray command value.
3. The two fluid spray equipment according to claim 1 , comprising:
compressed gas supply bypass for bypassing at least one of the plurality of spray control circuits and supplying the compressed gas to the two fluid nozzles to be controlled by the bypassed spray control circuit; and
gas pressure adjustment for adjusting pressure of the compressed gas supplied from the compressed gas supply bypass.
4. The two fluid spray equipment according to claim 1 , comprising:
pressurized water supply bypass for bypassing at least one of the plurality of spray control circuits and supplying the pressurized water to the two fluid nozzles to be controlled by the bypassed spray control circuit; and
water pressure adjustment for adjusting pressure of the pressurized water supplied from the pressurized water supply bypass.
5. The two fluid spray equipment according to claim 1 , wherein the pressurized water supply includes an inverter connected to the water supply pump.
6. The two fluid spray equipment according to claim 5 , wherein the pressurized water supply includes water pressure control circuitry configured to
control the inverter connected based on the water pressure command value.
