Abstract
A sprayer for a squeeze type bottle, the sprayer having spray, stream, and off conditions. A body is used as a closure for the bottle, and passages are defined within the body. The air passage is close to a mixing chamber, and the liquid must pass through a dip tube, through feed tubes, then into the side of a stream of air so the liquid is broken up by the turbulence. After mixing, the spray passes through an orifice in a ring. The ring may be shifted to block the mixing chamber and cause the orifice to be aligned with a liquid passageway to provide a steady stream of liquid from the container, or the ring may be shifted to block all passages to place the sprayer in an off condition.
