Spray extraction nozzle for taking in liquids from a surface
View Patent ↗A spray extraction nozzle for taking in liquids which have been applied to a surface includes a suction duct which ends in a suction mouth, and a spray nozzle, as well as an adapter for working on surfaces which have different properties. The adapter is connected to the spray extraction nozzle through a pivot axis, and the adapter can be pivoted from a position of rest which is remote from the suction mouth to a position of operation in front of the suction mouth of the spray extraction nozzle.
1. A spray extraction nozzle for taking in liquids which have been applied to a surface, the spray extraction nozzle comprising a suction duct having a central axis and a suction mouth, and a spray nozzle for the suction mouth, an adapter for working on surfaces having different properties, further comprising a pivot axis substantially perpendicular to the central axis of the suction duct and connecting the adapter and the spray extraction nozzle, wherein the adapter is mounted so as to be pivotable about the pivot axis between a position of rest remote from the suction mouth and a position of operation in front of an inlet opening of the suction mouth of the spray extraction nozzle.
2. The spray extraction nozzle according to claim 1 , further comprising means for releasably locking the adapter in the position of operation.
3. The spray extraction nozzle according to claim 1 , further comprising means for releasably locking the adapter in the position of rest.
4. The spray extraction nozzle according to claim 1 , wherein the adapter comprises in the position of rest a support surface for the spray extraction nozzle, whereby the suction mouth assumes an optimum position relative to the surface to be worked on.
5. The.spray extraction nozzle according to claim 1 , wherein the pivot axis is comprised of two pieces, wherein at least one of the pieces can be changed with respect to its position.
6. The spray extraction nozzle according to claim 5 , further comprising an actuating device for effecting the change of position of the pivot axis, wherein the degree of the change of position of the pivot axis is adjusted at least such that the pivot axis can be withdrawn from a bore in the adapter which receives the pivot axis.
7. The spray extraction nozzle according to claim 1 , wherein the spray extraction nozzle has an essentially triangular shape with lateral protrusions.
8. The spray extraction nozzle according to claim 7 , wherein the suction duct has over an entire length thereof the same cross-section as the suction mouth.
