Latest Patents

One of Pristo's latest patents is for a Buffered, Fluid Dispensing Nozzle Unit. This invention features an improved nozzle unit designed for periodically dispensing fluid. The nozzle unit includes a fluid dispensing component that is mounted for confined displacement within a housing. This housing has first and second stop surfaces. When subjected to a displacement force from fluid flowing into the housing under pressure, the fluid dispensing component moves from a primary stored position against the first stop surface to impact the second stop surface. In this deployed position, fluid flows through the dispensing component. The design minimizes material fatigue caused by the impact force, thereby extending the operational life of the nozzle unit.

Another significant patent by Pristo is for Graded Actuation of Hydraulically Actuated Pool Cleaning Heads. This invention employs a hydraulically actuated device as part of a pool cleaning system. It features an improved structural assembly of a hydraulically actuated core within a housing, which simplifies manufacturing and assembly. The invention provides graded control of pressure application and fluid flow, allowing for a gradual actuation of the hydraulic device. This design mitigates the adverse effects of abrupt actuation, such as water hammer and pressure surges. Improved jet orifices within the hydraulically actuated cylinder enhance the disturbance of sediments in the pool, ensuring a constant rate of fluid flow through the system.
