Abstract: A fluid cartridge for a plural component sprayer is configured to receive first and second component materials and purge air from the sprayer and provide the first and second component materials and purge air to a mix chamber for spraying. The fluid cartridge includes a cartridge body, material flowpaths extending from a second end to a cartridge bore, and a purge path extending from the second end to the cartridge bore. Fluid checks are disposed in the material flowpaths and purge path to prevent backflow out of the fluid cartridge. Side seals are disposed in the material paths and are pre-loaded to extend into the cartridge bore and engage a mix chamber within the cartridge bore.

Abstract: A plural component system includes a first pump configured to pump a first constituent material to an applicator and a second pump configured to pump a second constituent material to the applicator. A controller is operatively connected to the first pump and the second pump to control operation of the first pump and the second pump to pump the first and second constituent materials to the applicator at a desired ratio.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a fluid pump which has a pump casing, a top cap securable to an upper end of the pump casing and having an air intake port and a fluid discharge port. A fluid discharge tube extends to adjacent a lower end of the pump casing. A one-way check valve is disposed adjacent the lower end of the pump and forms a one-way path to admit fluid into the pump casing during a fill cycle of operation of the pump. A one-way check valve at the discharge port allows fluid to escape during a discharge cycle. An auger element is disposed inside the pump casing for causing a swirling, rotational fluid flow during a fluid eject cycle, in response to a jet of compressed air released into the pump casing, in which fluid having collected within the pump casing is forced by the jet of compressed air into and up through the discharge tube, and out from the pump casing.

Abstract: A nozzle assembly includes a nozzle housing (86) defining an inner chamber (91) and a mixer (90) disposed within the inner chamber. The nozzle housing includes a nozzle housing and a nozzle orifice. The nozzle receive is configured to connect to a sprayer housing and to receive a first material, a second material, and air. The nozzle orifice is configured to spray a plural component material formed by a mixture of the first material and the second material. The mixer includes a shaft (92), an extension (94), an air channel, and inlet orifice formed in a first end of the shaft, and an outlet orifice formed between the air channel and a surface of the shaft. The extension defines a mixing channel extending between the shaft and the inner surface of the housing and the air channel is defined by an inner surface of the shaft and extends partially axially through the shaft.

Abstract: A mix chamber for a plural component sprayer is configured to receive first and second component materials and emit a spray of a resulting plural component material. The mix chamber includes a chamber body extending between a first end and a second end and including flat lateral sides. A ramp feature is disposed proximate the first end and is configured to contact and push first and second side seals, respectively, away from a body axis as the mix chamber shifts in a first direction through a cartridge bore to increase a gap between the first side seal and the second side seal such that the first side seal engages the first flat lateral side and the second side seal engages the second flat lateral side.
