FOAM GENERATION ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE FOAM GENERATION ASSEMBLY

摘要

A foam generation assembly is provided. The assembly includes a tube having first and second end portions and an interior region. The assembly further includes first and second coupling members coupled to the tube, and a first movable retaining member disposed within the interior region proximate to the first coupling member. The assembly further includes a spring disposed within the interior region proximate to the second coupling member. The assembly further includes a second movable retaining member disposed within the interior region adjacent and against the spring, and a plurality of pellets disposed within the interior region between the first and second movable retaining members. The spring compresses the plurality of pellets between the first and second movable retaining members.

1. A foam generation assembly, comprising:
a tube having a first end portion and a second end portion, the tube further having an inner surface defining an interior region; a first coupling member having a first central aperture extending therethrough, the first coupling member being coupled to the first end portion such that the first central aperture communicates with the interior region; a second coupling member having a second central aperture extending therethrough, the second coupling member being coupled to the second end portion such that the second central aperture communicates with the interior region; a first movable retaining member being disposed within the interior region proximate to the first coupling member, a diameter of the first movable retaining member being larger than a diameter of the first central aperture of the first coupling member, the diameter of the first movable retaining member being less than a diameter of the interior region such that a gap is formed between the first movable retaining member and the inner surface of the tube; a spring being disposed within the interior region proximate to the second coupling member; a second movable retaining member being disposed within the interior region adjacent and against the spring, a diameter of the second movable retaining member being less than the diameter of the interior region such that a gap is formed between the second movable retaining member and the inner surface of the tube; and a plurality of pellets being disposed within the interior region between the first movable retaining member and the second movable retaining member, the spring being disposed between the second movable retaining member and the second coupling member, the spring configured to compress the plurality of pellets between the first movable retaining member and the second movable retaining member.
