<p>Apparatus for cleaning rollers used for applying emulsion paint and other water-based solutions to surfaces comprises a housing (1) within which a roller (3) can be mounted for rotation about its longitudinal axis. Means are provided for connecting the housing interior to a source of water under pressure, and a motor-driven pump (12) is positioned to receive water from the source and to discharge the same at a predetermined delivery pressure to a manifold (7) located within the housing. The longitudinal axis of the manifold lies generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of a roller mounted within the housing. A plurality of orifices (8) are formed in the manifold through which discrete jets of water are discharged towards and onto a surface of such a roller. The orifices are so positioned and aligned that the discrete jets make contact with the roller surface at positions offset from the axis of rotation of the roller.</p> |
