Double tentacle pump system for a liquid sprayer
A double tentacle pump system for a liquid sprayer includes first and second tentacle pumps positioned serially within a flow path that extends between a liquid container and the outlet of the sprayer. A motor is configured to actuate the first and second tentacle motors in response to a user directed trigger, thereby causing fluid to be moved from the container and expelled from the sprayer.
1. A double tentacle pump system for a liquid sprayer, comprising:
a. a liquid reservoir;
b. the liquid sprayer fluidly connected to the liquid reservoir and having an outlet;
c. a fluid flow path extending from the liquid reservoir to the outlet;
d. a first tentacle pump extending between the liquid reservoir and the sprayer within the fluid flow path;
e. a second tentacle pump extending within the fluid flow path, downstream of the first tentacle pump; and
f. at least one power supply for providing power to the first and second tentacle pumps.
2. The double tentacle pump system for a liquid sprayer according to claim 1 , further comprising a shut-off valve positioned within the flow path.
3. The double tentacle pump system for a liquid sprayer according to claim 2 , further comprising a trigger coupled to the shut-off valve and for moving the shut-off valve between open and closed positions.
4. The double tentacle pump system for a liquid sprayer according to claim 3 , further comprising a contact switch positioned within the sprayer and to which the shut-off valve moves into and out of electrical contact in response to the trigger moving the shut-off valve between its open and closed positions, respectively.
5. The double tentacle pump system according to claim 1 , wherein the first tentacle pump and the second tentacle pump each include at least one tentacle.
