Manufacturing process.
So, the author begins with the manufacture of the main element - a steam generator. A copper tube from an old refrigerator is perfect for this. He clamps the bolt in a vice, and winds a spiral from a tube on it.
Then it pushes the last two turns so that they fit in diameter to the nozzle of the burner.
The excess tube is cut with a dremel, although you can also use a hacksaw.
Now by inserting a knitting needle from cycling wheels into the tube, flatten it, reducing the diameter of the outlet. In this case, the edge of the tube bends parallel to the axis of the spiral.
With the help of a steel clamp fixes the tube to the burner.
The excess dropper tube is wound into a ring, and fixed with plastic screeds, bites the ponytails.
Next, connects the second end of the copper tube with a dropper tube.
Now drills the spray gun in the head of the spray can.
Cuts the tube near the drip system.
And inserts it into the hole from the spray gun. The joint is sealed with hot glue.
It remains only to fill the insecticide in the can, twist the head, and fix it on the cylinder of the gas burner. In this case, the ring from the dropper tube is located under the gas cylinder. Before starting the system, you need to pump liquid into the tube, for this it is enough to press the spray button.
Well, the device is ready. You can set fire to the burner, and treat the garden from pests! Too much flame is not required, it is enough to heat the spiral a little above 120 degrees, for the formation of steam. And the steam supply can be easily adjusted by pressing a button, adding the next portion of the chemical at the right time.
With the help of such a simple device, even the most inaccessible to conventional atomizers places will be filled with a chemical.
