Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of spraying machines and their accessories, specifically to an adjustable orifice nozzle assembly, a spray gun, and a high-pressure spraying machine having the spray gun. Background Technology

[0002] Spray painting machines are common spraying tools in our lives, and spray guns are an important part of spray painting machines. Different surfaces require different nozzle diameters, and different purposes also require different nozzle diameters. Spraying different thicknesses of paint can also be achieved by changing the nozzle diameter. The traditional approach is to use different models of nozzles with different diameters. Currently, there are nearly 50 different models of nozzles for high-pressure spray guns, depending on the flow rate and amplitude. Each size requires a separate nozzle plate assembly, which is costly. Furthermore, because a backwash function is required, the sealing requirements for the design are high. This makes replacement very cumbersome and inconvenient. Therefore, it is necessary to solve the existing defects. Summary of the Invention
