It's a fluidic amplifier. A small stream of fluid deflects a large stream, in effect, amplifying a pneumatic signal. If you want more details, I wrote about it in my blog:

You can test it by holding the pieces together and blowing simultaneiously into the power port and one of the control ports. It's pretty freakin amazing that it works. :)
I should also mention that this has already been patentedin 1974:
