  • Publication number: 20040265156
    Abstract: A pressure-limiting pump system for pressurizing a vessel, including a plunger terminating in a piston loose-fitting within a cylinder. The piston includes a flange forming the lip of an annular groove in the piston for supporting an O-ring seal. The groove is provided with a plurality of ports terminating in the piston within the cylinder. The O-ring is slidable on the piston groove surface. On the intake stroke, the O-ring moves to uncover the ports, and on the compression stroke, the O-ring moves to cover the ports to seal the compression chamber. When pressure exceeds a predetermined level, further compression causes air to bypass the O-ring and escape from the chamber, thereby limiting system pressure. The pump system may be mounted on-axis or off-axis in a tank sidearm. A handle is secured to the sprayer tank via shoulder inserts and is pivotable out of the way when filling the tank, yet can be locked in position as desired by a shift in pivot position.
