Abstract

A foam spray gun is illustrated in which a third hose is attached to the gun for the application of either a liquid or a gas.

Claims (61)

1. A foam spray gun which comprises:

a housing;

a pair of upwardly canted input hoses for at least one polyol and at least one diisocyanate, said hoses in communication with an input for said hoses in said housing and a removable nozzle;

a third upwardly canted input hose in communication with said removable nozzle for dispensing a liquid or a gas and positioned above the pair of upwardly canted input hoses for the at least one polyol and at least one diisocyanate;

a first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate in said pair of input hoses, said trigger adjacent a handle;

a second pivotable trigger forward of said first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of said liquid or gas from said third input hose; and

an output control lever for said pair of input hoses, said output control lever positioned on an upwardly canted portion of said housing and adjacent an input for the upwardly canted hoses.

2. The foam spray gun of claim 1 , wherein

said removable nozzle is temperature sensitive changing from a first color to a second color upon a temperature change within said nozzle.

3. The foam spray gun of claim 1 , wherein

said control mechanism for controlling a dispensing from said third hose is positioned adjacent a handle of said spray gun.

4. The foam spray gun of claim 1 , wherein

said handle is curvilinear.

5. The foam spray gun of claim 1 , wherein

said nozzle is affixed to a front of said housing by a twist and click attachment.

6. The foam spray gun of claim 1 , which further comprises:

a high/low pivotable control within said gun, said control within a flow path within said gun and post ingress of said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate and independent of a position of the first trigger.

7. The foam spray gun of claim 1 , which further comprises:

a third pivotable safety lock trigger biased in a locked position, said third pivotable safety lock trigger extending forward from a slot in a front face of said first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate.

8. The foam spray gun of claim 1 , wherein

said pair of input hoses are upwardly canted to enter said gun from on top of a housing of said gun.

9. A foam spray gun which comprises:

a housing;

a pair of upwardly canted input hoses for at least one polyol and at least one diisocyanate, said hoses in communication with an input for said hoses in said housing and a removable nozzle;

an upwardly canted third input hose in communication with said removable nozzle for dispensing a liquid or a gas and positioned above the pair of upwardly canted input hoses for the at least one polyol and at least one diisocyanate;

a first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate in said pair of input hoses, said trigger adjacent a handle;

a third pivotable safety lock trigger positioned near a top of the first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of the at least one polyol and at least one diisocyanate, the third pivotable safety lock trigger extending forward from a slot in a front face of said first pivotable trigger;

a second pivotable trigger forward of said first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of said liquid or gas from said third input hose; and

a high/low or on/off pivotable control within said gun, said control within a flow path within said gun and post ingress of either

said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate or said third input hose,

said high/low or on/off pivotable control independent of a position of the first trigger.

10. The foam spray gun of claim 9 , which further comprises:

a removable nozzle which is temperature sensitive changing from a first color to a second color upon a temperature change within said nozzle.

11. The foam spray gun of claim 9 , wherein

the first pivotable trigger comprises a third pivotable safety lock trigger disposed within a slot in the first pivotable trigger, the third pivotable safety lock trigger biased in a locked position.

12. A foam spray gun which comprises:

a housing;

a pair of upwardly canted input hoses for at least one polyol and at least one diisocyanate, said hoses in communication with an input for said hoses in said housing;

a pressurized gas propellant for said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate;

a temperature displaying removable nozzle affixable to a front of the housing, the nozzle changing from a first color to a second color upon a temperature change within the nozzle;

the removable nozzle comprising a static mixer for mixing an aerosol of said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate;

an upwardly canted third input hose in communication with said removable nozzle for dispensing a liquid or a gas and positioned above the pair of upwardly canted input hoses for the at least one polyol and at least one diisocyanate;

a first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate in said pair of input hoses, said trigger adjacent a handle;

a second pivotable trigger forward of said first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of said liquid or gas from said third input hose;

a third pivotable safety lock trigger positioned near a top of the first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of the at least one polyol and at least one diisocyanate, the third pivotable safety lock trigger extending forward from a slot in a front face of said first pivotable trigger; and

a high/low or on/off pivotable control within said gun, said control within a flow path within said gun and post ingress of either

said input for said pair of upwardly canted hoses for said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate or said third input hose,

said high/low or on/off pivotable control independent of a position of the first trigger.

13. A foam spray gun which comprises:

a housing;

a pair of upwardly canted input hoses for at least one polyol and at least one diisocyanate, said hoses in communication with an input for said hoses in said housing;

a pressurized gas propellant for said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate, a combination of said pressurized gas propellant and said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate creating an aerosol;

a temperature displaying removable nozzle affixable to a front of the housing, the nozzle changing from a first color to a second color upon a temperature change within the nozzle;

the removable nozzle comprising a static mixer for mixing the aerosol of said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate;

an upwardly canted third input hose in communication with said removable nozzle for dispensing a liquid or a gas and positioned above the pair of upwardly canted input hoses for the at least one polyol and at least one diisocyanate;

a first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of said at least one polyol and said at least one diisocyanate in said pair of input hoses, said trigger adjacent a handle;

a second pivotable trigger forward of said first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of said liquid or gas from said third input hose;

a third pivotable safety lock trigger positioned near a top of the first pivotable trigger for controlling dispensing of the at least one polyol and at least one diisocyanate, the third pivotable safety lock trigger extending forward from a slot in a front face of said first pivotable trigger; and

a high/low or on/off pivotable control within said gun, said control within a flow path within said gun and post ingress of either
