Patent ID: 10609822

Abstract:
A jetting device may include a vacuum nozzle configured to direct a gaseous flow of a gaseous fluid in flow communication with a jetting outlet; a vacuum pump configured to draw the gaseous flow into the vacuum nozzle and further towards the vacuum pump via the vacuum nozzle outlet; and an inlet conduit between a vacuum nozzle inlet and the ambient environment, where the inlet conduit includes a control valve configured to control a flow rate of the gaseous flow through the vacuum nozzle outlet based on adjusting a smallest diameter of the inlet conduit between an open diameter and a constricted diameter. The open diameter may be greater than a smallest diameter of the suction hole. The gaseous flow may include a first gaseous flow into the vacuum nozzle via a suction hole and an adjustable second gaseous flow into the vacuum nozzle via the vacuum nozzle inlet.
