Abstract: The two piece foamer nozzle assembly comprises a first piece including a body having a front end and a rear end and a second piece releasably connected to the first piece. The first piece has a first cavity in the body thereof opening onto the rear end thereof and being adapted to be received over a nozzle bushing mounted at the front end of the body of a hand manipulatable pumping apparatus. The nozzle bushing is of the type which will eject fluid into the first cavity in a swirl or spiral manner. The first piece further comprises a barrel portion having a second cavity opening onto the front end thereof and an intermediate wall within the first piece between the first and second cavities. The intermediate wall has an orifice extending therethrough with a rear end communicating thereof with the first cavity and a front end communicating with the second cavity. The swirl of liquid is ejected in a spray pattern from the front end of the orifice.

Abstract: The hand manipulatable sprayer (10) is connectable to a container (26) and includes a body (12) having a pump assembly (120) and a check valve assembly (90). The check valve assembly (90) includes at least one conically-shaped skirt valve member (100,112). Also the body (12) can have a cavity (68) adapted to receive similarly shaped inserts (67) for different valve assemblies (90), a cylindrical cavity (68) for receiving various size pistons (34) together with a mating cylindrical insert (43) and a nose formation (15,142,143) adapted to receive nozzle assemblies (14) similarly shaped but of different types and a passageway (96,97) extending from the cavity (68) to and opening on the nose formation (15).
