Embodiment Construction

[0056] It should be noted that in the drawings, some elements may be present in identical or equivalent multiples; in such a case, one or more representative elements may be designated by reference numerals only, it being understood that such reference numerals The same applies to all such elements.

[0057] Figure 1A and Figure 1B An exemplary embodiment of a spray gun cup receptacle 100 according to the present invention is shown. The spray gun cup receiver 100 includes an open end 110 that provides access to an interior cavity 120 . Opposite the open end 110 is a base end 130 . As shown, base end 130 includes a substantially flat configuration with optional feet 132, allowing the base to be stably placed directly on a flat work surface W ( Figure 1A not shown in ). The number, shape and arrangement of legs 132 may vary as desired. In some embodiments, the base end itself is not flat, but can be held stationary on a work surface as described above by means of addition...

Abstract

A spray gun cup receptacle is disclosed comprising an open end for receiving a liner within a cavity and a base end opposite the open end. The base end is positionable with respect to a work surface with the open end facing upwards such that a base plane passing through the base end is parallel to the work surface. A sidewall surrounds the cavity and connects the open end to the base end. The sidewall comprises two apertures through which the cavity is visible from outside the spray gun cup receptacle. The two apertures are divided one above the other by a brace member, at least a portion of which is disposed at a brace member angle alpha relative to the base plane.

Description

Background technique [0001] Liquid spray guns are often used to spray coatings such as stains, primers, paints, sealers, etc. onto surfaces. It is known to provide a liquid spray gun with a paint cup containing the liquid to be sprayed. There is a need for improved paint cups, parts for paint cups, and methods of use thereof. Contents of the invention [0002] It has been observed that paint cups and their components have a tendency to become coated in paint when used in their typical environment (eg, in the mixing room of an automotive collision repair shop). Such coatings of paint can cause practical difficulties for the painter. For example, even though paint cups may be clear when purchased (to allow viewing of the cup's contents), viewing the contents eventually becomes difficult or impossible due to the buildup of dried paint. In particular, to facilitate the correctly measured mixing of the components of paint or other substances, clear paint cup systems often incl...
