United States Patent Ofitice 3,166,252 Patented Jan. 19, 1965 3,166,252 SWIVEL MOUNT FOR SPRAY N OZZLES Edward J. OBrien, Glen Ellyn, and Robert P. Williams, Naperville, IlL, assignors to Spraying Systems (30., a corporation of Illinois Filed May 1, 1963, Ser. No. 277,241 6 Claims. (Cl. 239-587) This invention relates to spray guns and particularly to spray guns wherein the spray nozzle is mounted by means of a swivel for adjustment to ditierent positions.
In the use of spray guns it has been found that it is often necessary to mount the spray nozzle for pivotal adjustment relative to the supporting body, and this situation is encountered for example in connection with pole or wand type spray guns of the kind shown in Fred W. Wahlin, Patent D194,169, patented November 27, 1962, and in stationarily mounted, automatically controlled spray guns that are utilized in spraying manufactured articles that are moved past the spray gun by conveyor means.
Since such spray guns involve the use of pressure in feeding the coating material to the spray nozzle, it is essential that the swivel upon which the spray nozzle is mounted be of such a character that it provides a tight or non-leaking joint. In prior swivel mounted spray nozzle arrangements, it has usually been necessary to provide Various forms of screw threaded tightening devices which were loosened when the spray nozzle position was to be adjusted and which were then tightened to produce the proper sealing action and at the same time hold the spray nozzle in the desired position of adjustment.
The matter of maintaining a proper sealing and wivel mount for such spray guns becomes particularly critical when the spray gun is being used in airless paint spraying for in such uses it is customary to work with pressures from 1000 to 5000 pounds. In view of this it becomes increasingly difficult to provide a proper seal and to maintain such seal in the swivel, and at such high pressures it becomes increasingly desirable to provide such a seal which does not require loosening and tightening as aforesaid when the adjustment of the nozzle position is made. Efforts have been made to provide such a struc ture, but it has been found that even though the desired tightness of seal has been initially established, the repeated movements of the spray nozzle about the axis of the swiveljoint tend to loosen the swivel joint with the result that leakage is encountered.
In viewof the foregoing, it is theprimary object of the present invention to provide a swivel mountfor spray nozzles that may be tightened to the desired degree in order to maintain the desired sealing action and maintain the nozzle in its desiredposition of adjustment and in which this tightened position of adjustment of the swivel cannot be disturbed by the repeated adjustments thatare required with respect to the nozzle position. Another and more specific object is to provide a swivel mountforfl spray nozzles which is readily adaptable for use with varioustypes of conventional spray gun equipment, and" itisa further object to accomplish this through the use of simple structure which may be adjusted to the desired degree of tightness and which will maintain this adjustment. 1 V A further object is to provide such a swivel mount wherein the device may be readily assembled and disassembled when this is required 3 Other and further objects of the present invention will be apparent from the following description and claims, and are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, which, byway'of illustration, show a preferredembodirnent of the present invention and the principles thereof, and
what is now considered to be the best mode in which to apply these principles. Other embodiments of the invention embodying the same or equivalent principles may be used and structural changes may be made as desired by those skilled in the art without departing from the invention.
In the drawings:
FIG. 1 is afragmentary side elevational view of a swivel mounted spray nozzle embodying the features of the invention, the spray nozzle being carried on the end of a wand or pole type spray gun;
FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the swivel mounted spray nozzle of this invention as utilized on a known type of stationarily mounted, automatically controlled spray FIG. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view through the spray nozzle and its swivel mounting;
FIG. 4 is a cross sectional View taken substantially along the line 4-4 of FIG. 3; and
FIG. 5 is an exploded view showing certain parts of the swivel mounting.
For purposes of disclosure the invention is herein illustrated as embodied in a swivel mounting that is adapted for use for association with diflerent types of spray guns. The swivel mounting 10 is shown in FIG. 1 as being mounted on the end of a hollow tubular wand 11 of a wand type spray gun, while in FIG. 2, the swivel mounting is illustrated as associated with a stationarily mounted, automatically controlled spray gun 12.
The swivel mounting 10 comprises a body 15 having an outlet body 16 associated therewith by means of a swivel stem or pivot 17 so that the outlet body may be pivoted with relation to the swivel body 15 about the axis of the swivel stem 17. The outlet body has its outer end threaded at 16T and a nozzle cap 18 is threaded onto the outlet body to support a suitable nozzle 20 at the end of the outlet body.
The swivel body 15 is shown in detail in FIGS. 3, 4 and 5, and it will be noted that this body has parallel fiat side faces 21 and an opening 22 extended through the faces 21 and the body 15 perpendicular to the fiat faces In the present instance this portion of the passage 24 is hand end, as viewed in FIGS. 3 and 5, is counterbored to provide a packing seat 245.
The threaded passage 24 provides means for associating the swivel body 15 with a spray gun, and this is accomplished through the intermediary of a union 30 whereby the union may be connected to a valve supported body such as the body 31. As shown in FIG. 3, the body 31 is threaded onto the end of the tubular wand 11 through which the paint must pass, and a valve rod. 32 extends through the wand 11 for operating a needle valve means that is provided in connection with the body 31.
Thus, the body 31 has a passage'31P therethrough that is. internally threaded at 31T to receive a seat plug 33. The seat plug has a passage 33F therethrough, and ha a seat plug 34 mounted therein on a tapered seat formed at the left hand end of the passage 33. The valve rod 32 carries a hardened needle point 35 that cooperates with the seat insert 34, the valve being closed when the rod 32 is moved to its left hand position. The union 30 is utilized to associate the valve supporting body 31 with the swivel body 15. Thus the union provided by a cap 36 is internally screw threaded onto the external threads 3 provided on the left hand portion of the body 31. The union 36 also includes a swivel adaptor plug 38 that has a cen'tral opening or passage therethrough and is externally threaded so that it may be screwed into the th'readsfMT of the passage 24 of the swivel body. When this is done, a packing gasket 39 is clamped against packing seat 248. The adaptor plug 38 may be tightened through the use of an Allen type wrench that is extended into aihexagon'al portion 46 of the passage that extends through the adaptor plug 38.
In connecting the union 30 to the valve supporting body 31, a gasket 41 is preferably put in position between the opposed faces of the adaptor plug 38 and the seat plug 33.
In associating the swivel body 15 with the outlet body 16, the outlet body 16 is provided with a transverse passage 50 through which the swivel stem 17 extends, and the passage St) is connected by a passage 51 and 52 to the nozzle tip 20.
The transverse passage 52 is counterbored at one end to provide a packing seat 508, while at the other end of the passage 51 the outlet body is reduced as by turning to provide a, nipple 54 that may extend into the adjacent counterbored side of the swivel body to hold a packing ring 54? against the adjacent packing seat 2-3. The counterbore thus acts as alateral supporting bearing for the nipple 54.
As above pointed out, the swivel stem 17 extends through the passage 50 and the swivel stem 17 has a cylindrical head 17H of a diameter that will fit in a bearing relation into the counterbored end of the passage 50 so that it may hold a packing ring 55 against the packing seat StlS. Adjacent the head 17H, the swivel stern has a reduced bearing portion 17B that enters the passage 50 in a reasonably snug bearing relationship. Beyond the bearing portion 17B, the swivel stem 17 has a rela tively long reduced portion 17R so that this portion 17R is spaced substantially from the walls of the passage 50 and from the walls of the hexagonal passage 22 of the swivel body 15. The swivel stem 17 has a non-circular, and in this instance, hexagonal enlargement 17E formed thereon located at the other end of the reduced portion 17R and in such a relation that the hexagonal enlargement 17E will be located in engagement with the hexagonal passage 22 near the other end of the passage 22. The critical thing about this location is that enough of the end of the inlet passage 24 be exposed opposite the reduced portion 17R to' provide for moving of the paint through theswivel.
At its other end, beyond the enlargement 17E, the swivel stem has a screw threaded end portion 175 so that a cap nut 58 may bethreaded thereon to compress a packing ring 58F against the adjacent packing seat 23. When the cap nut 58 is tightened, the swivel stem 17 is held against rotation by theinteraction of the enlargement 17E with the hexagonal passage 22,; and the tightening of the cap nut 58 is carried to such a point that'the several packing rings 55, 54? and 58F along the axis of the swivel stem 17 are tightened andcompressed to the desired degree. Then, when the outlet body 16 is moved about the axis of the swivel stem, such movement cannot impart rotative movement to the swivel stem 17. This is true because the enlargement 17E is permanently located in engagement with the hexagonal passage 22. Hence the proper seal is maintained and'the frictional action of the packing is of course sufficientto maintain the outlet body 16 in any desired position of adjustment.
the present invention provides a new improved swivel mount for spray nozzles that may be permanently tightened to the desired degree in order to maintain the desired sealing action while at the same time mounting the nozzle in its desired position of adjustment. It will also be evident that the present invention accomplishes the foregoing in such a way that the tightened relationship of the swivel mount is not and cannot be disturbed by repeated adjustments of the nozzle to different positions about the axis of the swivel.
It will also be apparent that the improved swivel mount that is provided by this invention is adapted for use with various kinds of spray gun equipment andthe structure is provided by means that may be readily and easily manufactured and assembled. A
Thus while a preferred embodiment of the invention has'been illustrated herein, it is to be understood that changes and variations may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
