Gas dispensing apparatus for multiple chemical resources
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11767592B2) describes a gas dispensing apparatus for multiple chemical resources. The apparatus includes a gas mixing chamber with two separate board bodies extending outwardly from it. The first board body has a smaller diameter than the second board body. The gas mixing chamber has multiple holes defined through it. A stepped body is configured to receive the gas mixing chamber, creating two separated gas cavities of different diameters between the stepped body and the gas mixing chamber. These gas cavities are in flow communication with the gas mixing chamber via the holes.
The gas dispensing apparatus also includes a gas passage defined through the stepped body, which communicates with a top opening and a bottom opening of the gas mixing chamber. The gas passage is designed to inject an inert gas into the gas mixing chamber, with the inert gas flowing through the bottom opening.
The holes on the gas mixing chamber are arranged on the periphery of the chamber, close to the first and second board bodies. These holes can be of various shapes, including straight holes, inclined holes, semi-circular holes, triangle holes, pentagonal holes, hexagon holes, or oval holes.
This gas dispensing apparatus allows for the controlled mixing and dispensing of multiple chemical resources. The separate gas cavities created by the stepped body and the different hole arrangements on the gas mixing chamber provide flexibility in the gas mixing process. The inclusion of a gas passage for injecting an inert gas ensures proper flow and mixing within the chamber. The variety of hole shapes allows for customization based on specific needs.
Overall, this patented gas dispensing apparatus offers a versatile solution for efficiently and accurately dispensing gases in various applications, such as chemical research and manufacturing processes.
