ABSTRACT:
A head (12) for incorporation in a strobed liquid display is disclosed. The head comprises a housing (30) defining a chamber (38), the housing (30) having an inlet opening (39) for connection to a liquid supply, a top wall (32) having a vent (42), a bottom wall (34) having a plurality of apertures (44) spaced from and distributed about the center thereof for accommodating the outflow of liquid droplets from the chamber (38), and a sidewall (36) extending between the top and bottom walls (32, (34). The head (12) also includes a vibrating device rigidly connected to the housing (30) for imparting a periodic wobble thereto for dispensing the droplets through the apertures (44) in sequential fashion with substantially uniform spacing between successive droplets dispensed through each aperture (44), whereby the dispensed droplets substantially define a helix. A strobe liquid display system (10) incorporating the head (12) is also disclosed.
