Spray gun with rotatably adjustable nozzle

摘要

A spray gun for spraying a fluid has a manifold for connection to a supply of fluid, and a nozzle assembly is attached to the manifold. The nozzle assembly has a spray nozzle producing a generally fan-shaped spray pattern lying generally in a plane. The nozzle assembly is rotatable relative to manifold to permit the plane of the spray pattern to be manually reoriented while maintaining the manifold in a fixed position. The spray gun can be activated to produce the directional spray pattern. The nozzle assembly is manually rotated relative to the manifold while the spray gun is activated, and the spray pattern is observed the spray pattern while rotating the nozzle assembly. The rotatable nozzle assembly permits the plane of the spray pattern to be adjusted without turning the spray gun off.
