Abstract: A carpet extractor valve assembly (340,522) alternately directs cleaning solution to a base-mounted spray bar (74,526) or to a remote distributor (438,614) of an accessory tool (16,524). The valve assembly includes an inlet port (344), which receives cleaning fluid from a handle-mounted reservoir (14,574), and first and second discharge ports (400, 442), connected to the spray bar and the accessory tool, respectively. First and second valve members (352,354) include first and second poppets (362, 444), which are biased by a spring (384) to normally-closed positions in which the first and second discharge ports are sealed. A trigger-operated actuation rod (410) actuates the first valve member to release cleaning fluid to the spray bar. A quick connect coupling (464,466,608,610) connects the remote distributor with the second discharge port and opens the second valve member thereby. In one embodiment, a cleaning solution pump (480), mounted in a pump housing (490) over a base assembly A, is coupled between the valve assembly (340) and the remote distributor (438). In another embodiment, a pump (520) is connected between a cleaning solution tank (574) and the valve assembly inlet port and pressurizes cleaning fluid for both the spray bar (526) and the remote distributor (614).

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un procédé servant à souder bout à bout deux structures généralement en forme de tige (5, 6) à base d'un matériau plastique contenant du fluor, afin de former une construction en boucle fermée. Ces structures peuvent comprendre des bagues d'étanchéité ou de renfort pour pouvoir être utilisées dans des têtes d'injection haute pression. Ce procédé consiste: à placer les faces terminales desdites structures en contact l'une avec l'autre, en maintenant chaque structure en support dans un dispositif de serrage (3, 4) à une certaine distance de la face terminale de chacune des structures; et à appliquer de la chaleur aux parties terminales des structures qui sortent du dispositif de serrage. On presse les faces terminales l'une contre l'autre en déplaçant les dispositifs de serrage (3, 4) en direction l'un de l'autre, pour qu'une pression de soudage, comprise entre 0,05 et 0,5 Nmm-2, perpendiculaire aux faces terminales, soit transmise des dispositifs de serrage vers les faces terminales via les parties terminales des structures, la distance entre l'élément chauffant et les parties terminales étant suffisante pour empêcher les parties chauffées des structures de venir en contact avec l'élément chauffant (10). L'élément chauffant (10) entoure les parties terminales sur un pourtour essentiellement fermé et il peut comporter deux segments qui peuvent être articulés pour pouvoir s'ouvrir et se fermer, de façon à être retirés de la soudure une fois que celle-ci est terminée. L'élément chauffant peut être alimenté en fonction d'un profil de chauffage prédéterminé, pour que la température de la zone de soudage soit mesurée et pour que l'action chauffante de l'élément générant la chaleur soit augmentée ou diminuée pour transmettre et absorber la chaleur en provenance et en direction de l'élément faisant office de réservoir de chaleur, la température de la zone de soudage étant ainsi maintenue à l'intérieur d'une marge prédéterminée de part et d'autre du profil de chauffage. En utilisant ce procédé, on peut produire une soudure bout à bout très uniforme et non déformée, dans des conditions de contrôle précis de la température de la zone de soudage. Dès lors que l'élément chauffant n'est pas directement en contact avec les parties intérieures des structures, on peut obtenir une répartition uniforme de la température à l'intérieur du volume de scellement, sans dégradation du matériau plastique à teneur en fluor.
