DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0014] Disclosed in FIGS. 1-4 is a pressure regulating valve assembly for a pneumatic spray gun. The pressure regulating valve assembly 2 is configured inside the pressure regulating passage 11 of the gun body 1, comprising a pressure regulating screw seat 22 that is fixed with the gun body 1, a pressure regulating rod 23 going through the pressure regulating screw seat 22 and in threaded connection with the pressure regulating screw seat 22. A pressure regulating seal ring 24 is configured between the pressure regulating rod 23 and the pressure regulating, screw seat 22. The middle portion of the pressure regulating rod 23 is configured with a clamping check ring 25. The clamping check ring 25 is used to limit the position of the pressure regulating rod 23. The inner end of the pressure regulating rod 23 is configured with a pressure regulating valve 27. The position of the pressure regulating valve 27 is limited by the split damping ring 28 configured on the end portion of the pressure regulating rod 23. The pressure regulating rod 23 is fitted with a pressure regulating washer 26. The pressure regulating washer 26 is located below the pressure regulating valve 27. The pressure regulating washer can increase the supporting area below the pressure regulating valve. Meanwhile, it can facilitate disassembly and replacement when the pressure regulating valve is worn out. The outer end of the pressure regulating rod 23 is fixed with a pressure regulating cap 21 through a screw. The pressure regulating screw seat 22 has a shoulder 221 to interact with the pressure regulating cap 21. The shoulder 221 is used to limit the position of the pressure regulating rod 23. Through the pressure regulating cap, the pressure regulating rod can be rotated easily. Meanwhile, the pressure regulating cap also offers a positioning function when working with the shoulder. The pressure regulating screw seat 22 is in threaded connection with the gun body 1 and is sealed up. The lower end of the pressure regulating screw seat 22 is formed with a hex head 222. The hex head 222 is hidden inside the pressure regulating cap 21. Through the hex head, the pressure regulating screw seat can be easily connected with the gun body. The design of the hidden hex head can enhance the overall appearance of the pressure regulating valve assembly.

[0015] The conventional air inlet pressure regulating valve is made through integral plastic injection. Replacement is very costly. In the present invention, the pressure regulating valve assembly 2 is an assembly of independently processed spare parts. The pressure regulating valve 27 can be replaced independently to save the cost and time of maintenance. The conventional pressure regulating screw seat usually has a hex head configured in the middle portion, whereas in the present invention, the hex head 222 is configured below the pressure regulating screw seat and is hidden by the pressure regulating cap 21 to enhance the overall appearance of the product.

[0016] The usage of the present invention is detailed as below:

[0017] Through the pressure regulating cap 21, the pressure regulating rod 23 can be driven to rotate simultaneously with the pressure regulating screw seat 22. The pressure regulating rod 23 will have displacement in the axial direction, so that the pressure regulating valve 27 will move close to or away from the position of the upper port of the pressure regulating passage 11 to adjust the opening and the volume of air inlet, thus realizing the modulation of pressure.

[0018] To replace the pressure regulating valve 27, disassemble the whole pressure regulating valve assembly (firstly remove the pressure regulating cap 21, and detach the pressure regulating screw seat 22 as well as other assembly through the hex head 222), and take off the split damping ring 28. Install a new pressure regulating valve 27 and put the split damping ring back to its position. Then reinstall the whole pressure regulating valve assembly back into the pressure regulating passage 11. The whole operation is easy and quick.
