Abstract

At the rear end, the powder cup spray gun has an injector, a powder cup and a receptacle for the powder cup. The powder inlet of the injector is connected to the receptacle. The powder cup and the receptacle are designed in such a way that the powder cup can be fitted into the receptacle. In addition, a grip with a connection for conveying air, a connection for atomising air, and a connection for metering air is provided. The connection for the conveying air and the connection for the metering air are connected to the injector via lines running in the grip.

Claims (30)
