  • This variant therefore has the advantage of informing the user about the level of liquid remaining during work and the position of the liquid in the interior volume.
  • the figures 20 and 21 show a particular shape of the mounting part 12 producing the closure of the lower end 14 of the hollow inner tubular element 13.
  • This is a part 47 with a solid or hollow conical central projection 48 formed by a circular base 49 as a disc extended upwards by said conical central projection 48.
  • This conical central projection 48 engages by interlocking or sealing in a complementary conical shape 50 recessed in the lower end 14 of the tubular element hollow interior 13 having a suitable complementary shape.
  • the hollow shape for this mounting part is preferred because it makes it possible to serve as a vent and for the entry of the component when filling the volume of the hollow tubular element 13. In this case, this passage opens upwards through a orifice 51. If the shape and the volume of the cavity 52 of the hollow interior volume of the part with conical projection 47 are sufficient, it can receive the projecting part 53 of complementary shape, for example frustoconical, of a removable closure part 54 as shown. on the figure 21 fulfilling the function of stopper with a circular base 55 thus ensuring a good temporary seal.
  • the mounting part 47 with a conical projection may have a lower central part which can be split, of the type removable closure part 56 comprising a gripping pin 57. At least the circular central part of its base could thus after splitting dissociate itself from the body of the mounting part 47 and free the interior passage allowing product filling and serving as a vent when using the spray tool.
  • the removable closure part 54 the front part of which serves as a stopper in the mounting part 47 at the projection provided in the bottom 7 of the body 5.
  • a multi-component embodiment which can comprise several interior volumes each containing a component, for example in the form of several concentric tubular elements, the volume of each of which is released successively in the peripheral volume. rest of the body 5.
  • each component is enclosed in a separate individual container separated in a leaktight manner from one another, without one or the other of the components being able to mix before the preparation of the product to be sprayed.
  • communication can be obtained between these at least two individual containers so that the at least two components can mix in the same space without having to take them out and in which the mixture remains confined.
