WAREWASHING SYSTEM ARM
First Claim
1. A rinse arm comprising:
- a tubular body connected to a fluid source, said tubular body having at least a first aperture and a second aperture therethrough, said first aperture forming a first spray and said second aperture forming a second spray when said fluid flows through said tubular body from said fluid source, said first aperture having a first aperture axis therethrough and said second aperture having a second aperture axis therethrough, said first aperture axis forming a first angle with a first vertical axis and said second aperture axis forming a second angle with a second vertical axis, and said first angle being greater than 0 degrees, so that said first aperture directs said first spray towards said second spray forming an overlapping spray of said first spray and said second spray.

Abstract
A rinse arm or wash arm includes a tubular body connected to a fluid source. The tubular body has at least a first aperture and a second aperture therethrough. The first aperture forms a first spray and the second aperture forms a second spray when the fluid flows through the tubular body from the fluid source. The first aperture has a first aperture axis therethrough and the second aperture has a second aperture axis therethrough. The first aperture axis forms a first angle with a first vertical axis and the second aperture axis forms a second angle with a second vertical axis. The first angle is greater than 0 degrees, so that the first aperture directs the first spray towards the second spray forming an overlapping spray of the first spray and the second spray.

14. A warewashing system comprising:
-
a housing; a rack holding a plurality of wares in said housing; a rack support that supports said rack in said housing; and a tubular body connected to a fluid source, said tubular body having at least a first aperture and a second aperture therethrough, said first aperture forming a first spray and said second aperture forming a second spray when said fluid flows through said tubular body from said fluid source, said first aperture having a first aperture axis therethrough and said second aperture having a second aperture axis therethrough, said first aperture axis forming a first angle with a first vertical axis and said second aperture axis forming a second angle with a second vertical axis, and said first angle being greater than 0 degrees, so that said first aperture directs said first spray towards said second spray forming an overlapping spray of said first spray and said second spray contacting said wares. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)
