Nozzle.

摘要

A nozzle (20) which has a cylindrical nozzle main body (21). A nozzle tip (22) comprises a plurality of members formed by dividing an approximately cylindrical member in the axial direction thereof and is accommodated in the interior of the nozzle main body (21). A spring (23) is provided between a spring receiving section (34) of the nozzle tip and a wall positioned on a forward side of the nozzle main body (21). At least one of a peripheral surface of a discharge section (33) of the nozzle tip and an inner surface of a tip engaging opening (27) of the nozzle main body (21) is tapered. When a self-cleaning operation is performed with an atomization pressure reduced, the spring (23) urges the nozzle tip (22) toward a backward side of the nozzle main body (21). <IMAGE>
