Abstract:
A gun-like spray device having a spray nozzle assembly at the discharge end and a reciprocatably movable valve needle for controlling the liquid flow through the discharge nozzle assembly. The nozzle assembly includes an orifice member which defines a liquid discharge orifice and a rigid valve seat for centering and precisely locating the valve needle in a closed position. An annular resilient sealing member is secured within the orifice member for engaging and creating a liquid seal about the valve needle separate and apart from the rigid seat when the valve needle is in a closed position. The spray nozzle assembly may be used with spray devices having different sized valve needles and includes a first rigid valve seat downstream of the resilient sealing member for receiving a relatively small diameter valve needle and a second rigid valve seat upstream of the resilient sealing member for receiving a relatively large diameter valve needle.
Abstract:
An unloader type valve for spray guns supplied from pumps to limit operating pressures of the pump when the spray gun is stopped. The valve utilizes an adjustable spring to select pressure forces for opening the valve and a variable flow passage from the valve to an outlet when the valve is open, the allowing matching of the valve to the precise operating pressures and flow rates in spray gun and pumping system installations.

1,082,767. Nozzles. SPRAYING SYSTEMS CO. Aug. 5, 1965 [Aug. 7, 1964], No. 33563/65. Heading B2F. A nozzle for use in de-scaling apparatus is adapted to produce an elongated discharge and includes a baffle or guide device 30 formed of a hollow tube having a tapered lower end 31T and supporting a vane unit 32 at its upper end. The tapered end 31T of the device is adapted to seat on the tapered surface (120T) of a nozzle (15), Fig. 4 (not shown) when the device, which helps to stabilize the discharge, is inserted in the nozzle. A snap ring 31R aids the mounting of the device. A plurality of the nozzles is mounted adjustably in opposed pipes (12), (14), Fig. 1 (not shown) and the upper end of each nozzle is provided with an extension into the respective pipe in the form of a strainer (24) having slotted walls (1245), Fig. 4. The nozzle (15) is provided with an elongated outlet (205) and the vane unit 32 is cruciform in cross-section and formed of plate-like arms which extend partially into the device.
