Vacuum Nozzle Assembly
Abstract
A vacuum nozzle assembly includes a vacuum that has a hose. The hose has a free end and the free end may be placed within a rock bed thereby facilitating the vacuum to suctionally remove debris from the rock bed. A nozzle is provided that has a first end, a second end and an outer wall extending between the first end and the second end. Each of the first end and the second end are open and the nozzle is substantially hollow. The first end insertably receives the free end of the hose such that the nozzle is in fluid communication with the vacuum. The nozzle may be inserted between rocks in the rock bed thereby facilitating the nozzle to suctionally remove the debris from between the rocks. The nozzle is comprised of a rigid material such that the nozzle is resistant to being damaged by the rocks.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedI claim:
1 . A vacuum nozzle assembly configured to remove debris from a rock bed, said assembly comprising:
a vacuum having a hose, said hose having a free end, said free end being configured to be placed within a rock bed thereby facilitating said vacuum to suctionally remove debris from the rock bed; and a nozzle having a first end, a second end and an outer wall extending between said first end and said second end, each of said first end and said second end being open, said nozzle being substantially hollow, said first end insertably receiving said free end of said hose such that said nozzle is in fluid communication with said vacuum, said nozzle being configured to be inserted between rocks in the rock bed thereby facilitating said nozzle to suctionally remove the debris from between the rocks, said nozzle being comprised of a rigid material such that said nozzle is configured to be resistant to being damaged by the rocks.
2 . The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said outer wall has a first section and a second section, said first section being curved around an axis extending through said first end and said second end such that said first section has a cylindrical shape.
3 . The assembly according to claim 2 , wherein said second section has a top side, a bottom side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side such that said second section has a rectangular cross section taken along an axis extending through said first end and said second end, each of said first lateral side and said second lateral side having a triangular shape tapering between said first section and said second end.
4 . The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein:
said nozzle having a top side, a bottom side, a second end and a first section; and each of said top side and said bottom side having a plurality of slots extending therethrough, said slots being spaced apart from each other and distributed from said second end toward said first section, said slots being configured to allow said nozzle to continue suctionally removing the debris if the rocks plug said second end thereby preventing the rocks from inhibiting the suction of said vacuum.
5 . A vacuum nozzle assembly configured to remove debris from a rock bed, said assembly comprising:
a vacuum having a hose, said hose having a free end, said free end being configured to be placed within a rock bed thereby facilitating said vacuum to suctionally remove debris from the rock bed; and a nozzle having a first end, a second end and an outer wall extending between said first end and said second end, each of said first end and said second end being open, said nozzle being substantially hollow, said first end insertably receiving said free end of said hose such that said nozzle is in fluid communication with said vacuum, said outer wall having a first section and a second section, said first section being curved around an axis extending through said first end and said second end such that said first section has a cylindrical shape, said second section having a top side, a bottom side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side such that said second section has a rectangular cross section taken along an axis extending through said first end and said second end, each of said first lateral side and said second lateral side having a triangular shape tapering between said first section and said second end, each of said top side and said bottom side having a plurality of slots extending therethrough, said slots being spaced apart from each other and distributed from said second end toward said first section, said second end being configured to be inserted between rocks in the rock bed thereby facilitating said nozzle to suctionally remove the debris from between the rocks, said slots being configured to allow said nozzle to continue suctionally removing the debris if the rocks plug said second end thereby preventing the rocks from inhibiting the suction of said vacuum, said nozzle being comprised of a rigid material such that said nozzle is configured to be resistant to being damaged by the rocks.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
