Sprayer for liquids with precompression chamber
A description is given of a sprayer of liquids ( 10 ) with trigger-operated pump comprising a body ( 11 ) which can be attached to the mouth of a container and a nozzle ( 16 ) of delivery of the liquid, in the body ( 11 ) being formed a pumping chamber ( 22 ) in communication with the interior of the container and with the delivery nozzle ( 16 ), via a one-way valve of suction and of delivery ( 30 ), in the outlet duct ( 29 ) for the liquid a system of precompression being placed comprising a piston ( 41 ) pushed with constant force by a spring ( 42 ) in occlusion of said outlet duct ( 29 ) such as to increase the pressure of the liquid in said outlet duct ( 29 ) during the pumping, and therefore the speed or the acceleration of the liquid in output from the nozzle ( 16 ).
1. A trigger sprayer, comprising:
a body, comprising:
a base;
a delivery nozzle;
a pumping chamber;
an inlet hole in communication with the pumping chamber;
an outlet hole in communication with the pumping chamber;
an outlet duct, comprising:
a first vertical section in communication with the outlet hole;
a second vertical section in communication with the first vertical section; and
a horizontal section in communication with the delivery nozzle;
wherein the first vertical section is disposed below the second vertical section, and the first vertical section has a smaller diameter than the diameter of the second vertical section;
a plunger positioned in the pumping chamber;
a trigger lever hinged to the body and to the plunger;
an inlet valve cooperating with the inlet hole;
an outlet valve cooperating with the outlet hole; and
a precompression system seated in the outlet duct, the precompression system comprising:
a piston housed in the second vertical section; and
a spring holding the piston in the second vertical section,
wherein, the piston of the system of precompression is configured and arranged to permit a fluid to pass around an exterior surface of the piston upon actuation of the trigger sprayer.
2. The sprayer of claim 1 , wherein the piston and the spring are a unitary component.
3. The sprayer of claim 1 , wherein the first vertical section and horizontal section are at a right angle to each other.
4. The sprayer of claim 1 , wherein the first vertical section is located behind the pumping chamber.
5. The sprayer of claim 1 , wherein the horizontal section is located above the pumping chamber.
6. The sprayer of claim 1 , wherein the inlet valve and outlet valve are a unitary component.
7. The sprayer of claim 1 , wherein the second vertical section comprises an opening through the body to atmosphere.
8. The sprayer of claim 7 , further comprising a closure cap plugging the opening.
9. The sprayer of claim 8 , wherein the spring abuts the closure cap.
10. The sprayer of claim 1 , wherein the first vertical section and the second vertical section are parallel and axially offset.
