Abstract: The present invention provides a detachable nozzle used for interconnecting a hose to a cleaning implement or for use as spray nozzle for a hose. The detachable nozzle extends along a longitudinal axis and includes a downstream end with an internally threaded neck adapted for connection to a hose and an upstream end with an externally threaded neck that is adapted for connection to a cleaning implement or from which water may be discharged. A spring biased actuating trigger engages a lever tied to a spring biased valve and is pivotally movable between its neutral position that places the valve in its closed position, to a fully closed position that places the valve in its fully open position.
