Abstract: A paint pump and cart having a movable carriage to enable tilting of the paint pump secured to the carriage via a pivot mechanism without tilting the remainder of cart. A latching mechanism having a spring biased pin received in one of a pair of apertures provides selective retention of the carriage in an operating or loading position and the latching mechanism is operable to release the carriage to move between the operating and loading positions.

Abstract: A connector assembly suitable for use with armored cables. The connector assembly includes a sleeve that is received over and connected to an end of an armored cable. The conductors of the armored cable are connected to a contact holder that is received within the sleeve. A jacket is molded over the sleeve and a portion of the armored cable. A slip ring placed around the sleeve between the molded jacket and a flange of the sleeve secures a coupling nut thereover. The coupling nut secures mating portions of the connector assembly to one another so as to create a conductive pathway across the connector assembly.

Abstract: A connector assembly suitable for use with armored cables is disclosed. The coupling comprises a substantially rigid electrically conductive sleeve that is received over an end of a cable and is retained thereto by one or more set screws that form an electrical connection from the armor of a cable to the sleeve. A contact holder is received within the end of the sleeve and a substantially rigid jacket is molded over the sleeve and a portion of the cable received therein. A slip ring is placed around the sleeve between a shoulder of the jacket and a flange formed in the end of the sleeve. The slip ring has a groove formed in its exterior surface that mates with a retaining ridge formed in the interior of a coupling nut that is received over the sleeve. A secure, sturdy and reliable ground connection is formed through the coupling from the armor of the cable through the set screw to the sleeve and slip ring received thereover and finally to the coupling nut of the connector assembly.

Abstract: The invention includes an electrically isolated electrically less-conductive component fluid-flow course and an electrically-grounded electrically more-conductive component fluid-flow course. The electrically more-conductive component fluid-flow course may be additionally electrically isolated at the preference of an operator. The invention includes an electrostatic spray gun a mixer positioned proximal to the electrostatic spray gun, and a first conduit which holds alternating segments of electrically more-conductive component and electrically less-conductive component. The alternating segments function in series to additively provide a combined resistance which electrically blocks the high-voltage potential generated at the electrostatic spray gun.
