Abstract
A nozzle and spray dispenser for generating a uniform substantially flat fan spray pattern when spraying high viscosity fluids (i.e., oils, lotions, cleaning liquids, shear-thinning liquids and gels and similar Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids having viscosities of 10-100 cP) is configured with an exit orificedefining multiple lip segmentsA,B,C. Cup-shaped nozzle memberhas a cylindrical side wallsurrounding a central longitudinal axis and has a circular closed end wall with at least one exit aperture passing through the end wall. At least one enhanced exit orifice structure is formed in an inner surface of the end wall, and includes two to five lip segments of selected width defining edges at the orifice, where each edge segment is defined at the distal edge of a separate and distinct interior wall segmentA,B,C which has a selected wall convergence angle β.
