Abstract:
A suction nozzle assembly, comprising a tube coupled to a pressure sink at a distal side thereof, a nozzle, a resilient element which couples said nozzle to a proximal side of said tube and a deformable housing which bridges a gap between said proximal side of said tube and said nozzle. Optionally, a pressure equalizer, for example, a through aperture, is formed in said nozzle.

Claim (Index 1):
A suction nozzle assembly for cleaning a water filtration screen, comprising:\n a suction pipe collector in fluid connection with a suction pipe; a nozzle associated with said suction pipe, at least part of said nozzle being retractable relative to said suction pipe; a gap-bridging element selected from the group consisting of: a bellows and a deformable housing, said gap-bridging element bridging a gap between a distal side of said suction pipe and said nozzle so as to accommodate retraction of said nozzle relative to said suction pipe; and at least one pressure-equalizing aperture or channel formed in one or both of said nozzle and said gap-bridging element, said pressure-equalizing aperture or channel providing fluid communication between said gap and an outside of said suction nozzle assembly so as to reduce or eliminate pressure-related forces acting to retract said nozzle.
