摘要

A coolant nozzle of adjustably variable width stream for a grinding wheel or the like, the nozzle including a hollow housing extending laterally across the working face of the grinding wheel having a coolant inlet in an upper region and a coolant outlet extending laterally in a lower region, a tubular formation extending laterally across the interior of the housing having a coolant receiving opening on its upper side adjacent to one end of the tubular formation and a coolant discharging port configuration on its lower side extending the length of the tubular formation. A control element or closure extends across the tubular formation and is shiftable longitudinally along the tubular formation to communicate the upper receiving port with a selected length of lower discharging port.
