Embodiment Construction

[0016] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 , an adjustable adapter 10 connects a container 12 with an outlet 14 and a fluid applicator 2 with an inlet 13 . The adjustable adapter 10 comprises a sprayer arm 20 with an axis 16, a surface 26 substantially perpendicular to the axis 16 and a fluid opening 28 on it, an end 30 connected to the fluid sprayer inlet 13, allowing the fluid The channel 32 that communicates between the opening 28 and the inlet 13 of the fluid sprayer 2, the container arm 22 coaxial with the axis 16 of the sprayer arm 20, it has a surface 36 substantially perpendicular to the axis 16 and a surface 36 on the surface 36. Opening 38, container arm surface 36 faces sprayer arm surface 26, also comprises the end 40 that connects container outlet 14 and a passage 42 that fluid is communicated between container arm opening 38 and the outlet 14 of container 12, a A fastener 44 coaxially connects the sprayer arm 20 and container arm 22 .

Abstract

An adjustable adapter includes two arms, each having an axis, a surface substantially normal to the axis, wherein the surfaces of the arms face each other, an end and a passageway for fluid communication between the end and the opening, wherein one of the arm ends is for connection to an inlet of an applicator and the other arm end is for connection to an outlet of a container, and a fastener for pivotally coupling the arms. One of the arm surfaces is provided with a groove in fluid communication with both arm openings. The groove is sealed to prevent fluid from leaking from between the surfaces. When the fastener is in a rotation-resisting mode, the fastener forces the surfaces of the arm toward one another sufficiently to increase friction and resist rotation therebetween, and when the fastener is in a rotation-permitting mode, the fastener releases the surfaces sufficiently to decrease friction and permit rotation therebetween.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an adapter for a fluid sprayer, and more particularly to an adjustable adapter for use with a gravity feed paint sprayer. Background technique [0002] Fluids are typically applied to surfaces by means of a paint sprayer. In specific applications, such as painting and repainting of vehicles in an automobile factory, the fluid is usually contained in a cup-shaped container attached to the paint sprayer. There is a kind of paint sprayer, the paint cup is hung under the front end of the paint sprayer, and the fluid enters the nozzle under the action of suction generated by the atomized air flow through the paint sprayer, which is usually called a suction-fed paint sprayer. Due to the fluid viscosity and the low working air pressure of the paint sprayer, the paint cup needs to be pressurized to increase the spraying speed of the fluid. In another type of paint sprayer, the paint cup is moved above the main body of the pai...
