Patent ID: 7096888

Claim:
A fluidic pulse generator system for directing a flow of a pressurized fluid, comprising: a fluidic pilot valve including an inlet nozzle, first and second control ports, and first and second outlet ports, the fluidic pilot valve inlet nozzle adapted to receive the flow of pressurized fluid, and the fluidic pilot valve first and second control ports each adapted to selectively receive a flow of control fluid, the fluidic pilot valve configured, in response to the selective receipt of the flow of control fluid to the fluidic pilot valve first or second control ports, to direct the flow of pressurized fluid received by the fluidic pilot valve inlet nozzle through the fluidic pilot valve second or first outlet port, respectively; a first fluidic diverter valve including an inlet nozzle, first and second control ports, and first and second outlet ports, the first fluidic diverter valve inlet nozzle adapted to receive the flow of pressurized fluid, the first fluidic diverter valve first and second control ports in fluid communication with the fluidic pilot valve second and first outlet ports, respectively, whereby pressurized fluid flow through the fluidic pilot valve first or second outlet ports directs the flow of pressurized fluid received by the first fluidic diverter valve inlet nozzle through the first fluidic diverter valve first or second outlet ports, respectively; and a second fluidic diverter valve including an inlet nozzle, first and second control ports, and first and second outlet ports, the second fluidic diverter valve inlet nozzle adapted to receive the flow of pressurized fluid, the second fluidic diverter valve first and second control ports in fluid communication with the fluidic pilot valve second and first outlet ports, respectively, whereby pressurized fluid flow through the fluidic pilot valve first or second outlet ports directs the flow of pressurized fluid received by the second fluidic diverter valve inlet nozzle through the second fluidic diverter valve second or first outlet ports, respectively.
