Wagner Spray Tech Corporation

A fluid applicator configured to receive a pressurized fluid includes a pressure vessel configured to receive the pressurized fluid from a fluid delivery line. The pressure vessel includes a valve chamber configured to receive a valve assembly, a filter chamber configured to receive a filter assembly, and a fluid delivery line fitting configured to be coupled to the fluid delivery line. The fluid applicator further including a tip assembly coupled to the pressure vessel and configured to atomize the pressurized fluid.

A handheld portable fluid spraying system includes a first disposable cartridge assembly having a first cartridge coupled to a first cartridge assembly body and a first valve coupled to the first cartridge assembly body. The handheld portable fluid spraying system also includes a base assembly comprising an air source configured to generate an airflow. A first portion of the airflow is provided to the first disposable cartridge assembly to pressurize the first disposable cartridge assembly and a second portion of the airflow is provided to a nozzle. The handheld portable fluid spraying system also includes a second disposable cartridge assembly having a second cartridge coupled to a second cartridge assembly body and a second valve coupled to the second cartridge assembly body. The first and second disposable cartridge assemblies are interchangeably connectable to the base assembly.

A handheld portable spraying system includes a fluid source having a plurality of different fluids and a fluid container configured to separately contain the plurality of different fluids. The handheld portable spraying system also includes a fluid pathway configured to carry the plurality of different fluids from the fluid source through an outlet of the handheld portable spraying system, and a fluid conveyance system configured to cause the plurality of different fluids to flow along the fluid pathway. The handheld portable spraying system further includes a controller configured to generate a control signal to control the flow of the plurality of different fluids along the fluid pathway.

A fluid applicator includes a gun having a trigger, a valve assembly moveable in a first direction by actuation of the trigger, a first spring that biases the valve assembly in a second direction and is compressible by movement of the valve assembly in the first direction, and a second spring that stores energy in a first phase of the movement of the valve assembly in the first direction and releases the stored energy in a second phase of the movement of the valve assembly in the first direction. The applicator includes a spray tip assembly having a spray tip, a tip saddle, and a seal element disposed within the tip saddle and having a top surface in contact with an exterior surface of the tip saddle, the seal element defining an inlet to the spray tip assembly and forming a seal between the gun and the spray tip assembly.

A handheld liquid spraying system includes a liquid container assembly having a container. An air inlet is configured to receive air to pressurize the liquid container assembly. A collapsible liner is disposed within the container. A cap has a first portion extending into an opening of the container and a second portion having an outlet for a flow of the liquid from the container. A fastening mechanism is configured to engage the container and retain the cap with a portion of the collapsible liner secured between the cap and the container. A liquid sprayer assembly is removably couplable to the liquid container assembly and includes a stem adapter, a stem adapter nut having a set of threads configured to engage a set of threads on the cap, a spray orifice, and a control mechanism configured to control flow of the liquid through the spray orifice.

A spraying system includes a spray head having a spray tip, a valve actuatable between a closed position that restricts fluid flow to the spray tip and an open position that allows fluid flow to the spray tip, a first valve actuating mechanism operably coupled to the valve and manually actuatable by a user to actuate the valve to the open position, and a second valve actuating mechanism operably coupled to the valve. The spraying system includes a robotic assembly configured to removably receive the spray head. The robotic assembly includes a robotically actuatable control module configured to engage and actuate the second valve actuating mechanism to actuate the valve to the open position.

A spray gun for a plural component system is provided. The spray gun includes a first component delivery line and a second component delivery line. The spray gun also includes a nozzle, configured to receive and mix a first component received from the first component delivery line with a second component received from the second component delivery line. The spray gun also includes an air purge system configured to, when the spray gun is in a non-actuated position, purge the nozzle of the first and second components and, when the spray gun is in an actuated position, aid in atomization of the mixture of the first and second components.

A fluid applicator configured to receive a pressurized fluid includes a handle assembly, a hook pivotably coupled to the handle assembly and configured to be actuated between a closed position and an open position, and a tip assembly configured to atomize the pressurized fluid.

A spray tip configured to atomize a fluid comprises an inlet configured to receive the fluid; an outlet defining an exit from the spray tip; internal geometry defining a pathway from the inlet toward the outlet; and a manufactured wear-mimicking geometrical feature.

A fluid spray gun include a pressure vessel, a valve disposed in the pressure vessel and configured to be actuated between an open position and a closed position, a trigger actuatable to actuate the valve between the open and closed positions; and a valve actuating mechanism assembly partially disposed in the pressure vessel and coupled to the trigger. The valve actuating mechanism assembly includes an axle, a valve contacting member disposed along the axle and configured to contact the valve, a first sealing element disposed in the pressure vessel and configured to create a first seal against the axle and a first seal against the pressure vessel, a second sealing element disposed in the pressure vessel and configured to create a second seal against the axle and a second seal against the pressure vessel, and a fastener including threads and a hole configured to receive a portion of the axle.
