Abstract
A pistol grip spray nozzle for spraying a liquid comprises a nozzle body and a handle pivotally mounted on the nozzle body and movable by manual grip around the handle and nozzle body together to operate a valve within the nozzle body for controlling the flow of liquid issuing from the nozzle body. The handle and the body have co-operating male and female formations, one formation on the nozzle and the other formation on the handle. The male formation fits in the female formation with a snap action to provide the pivotal mounting of the handle on the body, the male and female formations being so arranged that pivoting of the handle to control the flow of fluid tends to maintain the male and female formations fitted together.
