Abstract: A rotor nozzle for a high pressure cleaning apparatus has a rotor mounted to rotate within a housing driven by the flow of cleaning fluid with a fixed axis of rotation along the longitudinal axis of the housing. A nozzle mounted in an elongated member is captured between a driven portion of the rotor and a cup-like member open at its center and defining an exit orifice of the housing. The end of the nozzle assembly captured in the cup-like member preferably has a ball-shaped end to maintain a good seal. The point of connection of the driver to elongate member is radially offset with respect to the rotor axis of rotation to angle the exit axis of the nozzle at an acute angle with respect to the axis of rotation of the rotor. In an alternative form, the rotor includes counterweights that move radially outward against a spring force to provide an automatic adjustability of the exit angle as a function of the supply of the cleaning liquid.

Abstract: It is suggested in relation to a coupler for hose lines of high-pressure cleaning equipment and high-pressure spraying equipment comprising a nipple and a connecting piece to be coupled to the latter that the nipple be captured by a sleeve containing catch projections with recesses extending into its interior, that a compression spring be positioned between the inner wall of the sleeve and the nipple, that the connecting piece have on its outer wall outwardly projecting catches with locking lugs which slip into the recesses in the catch projections, and that the compression spring push the locking lugs into the recesses in the catch projections when the connecting piece is inserted into the sleeve.
