Abstract
Method for producing a spray wall drilled with a network of holes for the pressurised fluid substance to pass through so as to be sprayed in fine droplets. The method includes the steps of (a) moulding a nozzle having a front wall integrally formed with an assembly wall, the assembly wall surrounding the front wall, the front wall having a curved initial configuration upon removal from the mould; (b) drilling the curved front wall with a network of holes having a defined initial orientation; and (c) deforming the drilled curved front wall into a final spray configuration defining a spray wall, the defined initial orientation of the holes being subsequently modified.
Claims12
A method of manufacturing a spray wall that is drilled with holes through which a pressurized fluid product passes so as to be sprayed in small droplets, the method comprising the following steps:
- a—moulding in a mould a nozzle comprising a curved front wall and an assembly wall that are integrally formed, the assembly wall surrounding the curved front wall, the front wall having a curved initial configuration upon removal from the mould, wherein in the curved initial configuration the front wall is curved inwardly,
- b—drilling the curved front wall while the front wall is curved inwardly with a network of holes having a defined initial orientation,
- c—deforming the drilled curved front wall from the curved initial configuration into a final spray configuration defining a spray wall that is flat, the defined initial orientation of the holes being subsequently modified.
