AI Technical Summary
Existing high-pressure cleaning devices require complex and expensive pressure gauges to adjust the additive flow rate to the liquid flow rate, making it difficult to maintain a constant additive concentration with varying liquid flow rates.
A high-pressure cleaning device that adjusts both the liquid and additive flow rates using a control signal, eliminating the need for pressure gauges by interdependently controlling these flows based on the control element's actuation, allowing for quasi-continuous adjustment of fluid flow rates and maintaining constant additive concentration.
Simplifies the design, reduces costs, and ensures a constant additive concentration regardless of liquid flow rate variations, without the need for complex pump output control or expensive components.
