A handheld sprayer nozzle is provided that has dual levers connected to an internal rotary valve for easily and comfortably controlling and turning on and off the flow of water or other liquid or fluid emitted through the sprayer nozzle and out of its head from either side of the sprayer regardless of the orientation of the sprayer head relative to a user holding the sprayer nozzle. The handheld sprayer nozzle is connectable to an end of a pressurized hose. The sprayer nozzle's dual control levers are located on opposite sides of the sprayer nozzle so as to be generally located in positions opposite to one another and may be easily operated from either side of the sprayer nozzle by a user's thumb. The sprayer nozzle's head is also detachable so that sprayer heads of different lengths and spray patterns can be attached to the sprayer nozzle for different uses.

An apparatus (and a corresponding operation method) for automated maskless painting of an external paint on a complex surface using a coloring agent, wherein the complex surface is part of an aircraft. The apparatus comprises a multi-axis robot comprising at least one applicator for the coloring agent, wherein the at least one applicator is configured to apply the coloring agent to the complex surface using a coloring agent ejection technology.

A liquid spray gun nozzle assembly is disclosed comprising a coating liquid inlet portion comprising a liquid connector for connection to an external liquid source; a coating liquid outlet portion comprising a liquid nozzle for spraying a coating liquid fed into the nozzle assembly through the coating liquid inlet portion, the liquid nozzle being disposed along a spray axis; a coating liquid flow path fluidly connecting the coating liquid inlet portion to the liquid nozzle; and a spray gun connection portion opposite the coating liquid outlet portion adapted to connect the liquid spray gun nozzle assembly to a compatible liquid spray gun body. The spray gun connection portion comprises a nozzle assembly sealing surface adapted to seal the liquid spray gun nozzle assembly to the compatible liquid spray gun body, the nozzle assembly sealing surface comprising first and second sealing members that are each circular and concentric with one another.

Spray head assemblies, including an air-handling saddle that is attachable to a liquid spray gun platform, a liquid-handling core that is slidably engagable into the air-handling saddle, and an air cap; spray guns using such assemblies; and, methods of using such assemblies.

A pneumatic atomizing nozzle (10) which in a preferred form can be supplied with gas by means of a fan (43). The pneumatic atomizing nozzle (10) has a nozzle body (11), which bounds a flow space (21). The pneumatic atomizing nozzle (10) also has a liquid channel (27) having an outlet opening (38). Within the flow space (21), a liquid film (41) is formed, which is transported within the flow space (21) to a nozzle outlet (17) by the gas flow. The outlet opening (38) of the liquid channel (27) defines an outlet direction (A) for the liquid into the flow space (21), which in the preferred embodiment is opposite the flow direction (S) of the liquid film (41). At least in some sections, the liquid channel (27) and the outlet opening (38) extend transversely through the nozzle body (11) in a curved, wound, or meandering manner.

A system, including a spray cap configured to couple to a spray tool, wherein the spray cap includes a body and an air shaping passage through the body. The air shaping passage includes a flow control passage, an expansion chamber downstream from the flow control passage, and one or more air shaping outlets downstream from the expansion chamber.

A holder assembly includes a pole has an upper section and a lower section. An engaging member is coupled to the upper section. The engaging member may retain a paint gun on the pole. A connector is coupled to the pole such that the connector is positioned proximate a distal end of the pole with respect to the engaging member. A trigger is movably coupled to the connector. A cord extends between the paint gun and the trigger. The trigger may actuate the paint gun when the trigger is actuated.

The invention relates to a nozzle head for a spray device, comprising a central material nozzle, an air ring nozzle surrounding said material nozzle, and preferably at least two laterally projecting horns, into each of which at least one horn air nozzle is incorporated, and optionally comprising a material-conducting needle, characterized in that at least one nozzle (3, 3a, 3b, 5, 5a, 12, 12a, 12b, 15, 16, 17, 17a, 17b, 17c, 18, 18a, 18b1, 18b2, 18b3, 300a, 300b), preferably at least one horn air nozzle (15, 16, 17, 17a, 17b, 18, 18a, 18b1, 18b2, 18b3, 300a), has a non-cylindrical shape.
