The invention relates to a nozzle (101, 201, 301, 401, 501, 601, 701, 801, 901, 1001) for spraying substances, in particular dispersions, emulsions or suspensions.

Please replace the Abstract at page 41 with the following replacement paragraph: A nozzle, for spraying materials, in particular, dispersions, emulsions, or suspensions.

Pneumatic spray gun (10) and cartridge tip assemblies for applying sprayable materials to various surfaces are disclosed. A tube of flowable texture material to be sprayed having a cartridge tip (100) may be loaded into a pressure canister of a texture material spray gun (10). The cartridge tip (100) may include radially outwardly extending ribs (130), radially inwardly extending recesses and/or other features that engage with corresponding features of the spray nozzle assembly to reduce or prevent relative rotation between the cartridge tip (100) and the spray nozzle assembly.

Handheld gas spray systems for mixing and dispensing multi-component compositions.

A method for monitoring a nozzle mouthpiece for placing on a nozzle for spraying materials, in particular dispersions, emulsions or suspensions.

A paint spray gun includes a gun body formed as a unitary one piece structure composed of a tubular body portion, a valve connection portion, an air passageway portion and a feed connection portion. A spray cap is disposed on the tubular body portion and has a cap opening. The tubular body portion has an air chamber that is covered by the spray cap and that communicates with said cap opening, and a feed passage connected to the chamber. The valve connection portion, the air passageway portion and the feed connection portion are formed as one piece with the tubular body portion without welded joints.

A portable apparatus for dispensing and foaming of a product, including: a product container which contains a product that is to be foamed by and dispensed from the apparatus; a gas container, at least containing a gas, for example a single gas or a gas mixture, wherein the gas substantially does not contain any greenhouse gases such as N.sub.2O; a dispersion device, having a product entrance that is connectable to the product container for receiving product, the dispersion device further being connectable to the gas container for supplying the gas to the product during product discharge; a processing device downstream of the dispersion device for performing a mixing treatment and/or pressure reduction on the product provided with the gas; and a product dispensing head, being part of a top section of the apparatus and being arranged downstream of the processing device.

Pneumatic spray guns (10) for applying sprayable materials (M) to various surfaces are disclosed. During use of the pneumatic spray guns (10), a tube (T) of flowable texture material (M) to be sprayed is loaded into a pressure canister (12) of the spray gun (10). Pressurized air is fed to the tube (T) of material (M) to be sprayed and is also fed to a spray nozzle region of the gun (10) to contact the material (M) after it has exited the tube (T) in order to provide a desired spray pattern (S). The pressure applied to the pressure canister (12) and/or the pressure applied to the spray nozzle (20) may be varied in order to control the spray pattern (S).

A paint spray gun includes a gun body formed as a unitary one piece structure composed of a tubular body portion, a valve connection portion, an air passageway portion and a feed connection portion. A spray cap is disposed on the tubular body portion and has a cap opening. The tubular body portion has an air chamber that is covered by the spray cap and that communicates with said cap opening, and a feed passage connected to the chamber. The valve connection portion, the air passageway portion and the feed connection portion are formed as one piece with the tubular body portion without welded joints.

A method for monitoring a nozzle mouthpiece for placing on a nozzle for spraying materials, in particular dispersions, emulsions or suspensions.
