A hose nozzle assembly (10) includes an adjuster (62, 66, 76) for varying the shape of the flow pattern from the outlet (68) of the assembly, and a flow control valve (34, 40) in the flow path (32, 42, 38, 50, 56, 58) through the assembly between the flow inlet (32) and the adjuster (62, 66, 76), for controlling the volume of flow through the assembly per unit time. The assembly (10) may be in one or two separable units. The flow control valve may comprise a valve body (40) and a relatively displaceable valve seat (34) forming part of a hose connector (20) which is screw-threadedly engaged with a main body (12) of the assembly and the flow pattern adjuster (62, 66, 76) may be formed as part of a sleeve (14) including the flow outlet (68) and screw-threadedly engaged with the main body (12). |
