Abstract
The invention is an adjustable spray nozzle useful in airless liquid spraying. The spray nozzle uses interchangeable spray orifice members which discharge against the beveled end of a cylindrical splash pin. The orifice member lines the cylindrical bore which receives the splash pin and the latter is axially adjustable in the spray nozzle body to permit an adjustably variable opening of the orifice, thereby permitting infinite adjustment of the volume of liquid and the area of the fan spray produced by the spray nozzle. The interchangeability of the orifice members provides a wide range of adjustability since interchangeable orifice members of varied orifice diameters can be readily substituted in the spray nozzle.
