Abstract
A portable gravity fed eye/face wash comprises a water container having a fill opening and a closure cap at the upper end of the container. A recessed storage cavity on a front wall of the container accommodates a spray head assembly secured to the container for movement between an outwardly extending operative position and an upwardly extending inoperative and stored position. The spray head assembly includes a pair of spaced apart L-shaped elongate conduit members with upwardly disposed outer legs angled toward one another. When the spray head assembly is in its outwardly directed operative position water flows from the container through the spray head assembly and out of spray heads at the ends of the outer legs of the L-shaped elongate conduit members. Alternatively, when the spray head assembly is oriented upwardly into the storage cavity in the front wall of the container the flow of water is terminated.
