Abstract
A full cone spray nozzle assembly having a body with a centrally disposed, axially extending chamber through which a liquid to be discharged will flow, and a frusto-conically formed end cap having a circular, centrally located discharge opening. The end cap covers the body at the discharge end thereof, and the body has passages to direct pressurized air into a cavity formed between the discharge end of the body and the adjacent interior surface of the conical cap, thus forming an air outlet in the shape of an annular slot. The slot is arranged to direct the pressurized air inwardly towards the center of the opening in the conical cap so that the pressurized air surrounds and impinges the liquid flowing from the orifice and atomizes the liquid discharge.
