Hydromassage nozzle unit with flow regulator

摘要

The combination of a flow regulator (Figure 1) and a hydromassage nozzle (Figure 3) enables accomplishment of a unit which can be mounted on a flexible water supply tube for application of local hydromassage with adjustable flow rate of water mixed with air. The regulator has a manually operated plunger 22 which lifts a spring-loaded ball 17 from its seat 15 to control the flow of water between an inlet nipple 13 and outlet 30. A handle or grip which is movable in slots in the body of the regulator acts on the plunger (Figure 2, not shown). The nozzle is mounted on the outlet, and incorporates a venturi in which an air inlet tube 35 is located.
