Abstract: A texture spray gun having an air passageway (29) and a texture material passageway (28) in a handle (14) of the gun do) and a selectively removable screw to convert the gun from a non-air bleed configuration to an air bleed configuration and an improved air valve (22) providing a minimum air flow regardless of the setting of the air valve (22), preventing texture material from clogging an air path at the outlet of the gun.

Abstract: An accessory cart having a J-shaped frame for removable mounting of a spray gun to convert a conventional airless paint sprayer into a line striper to paint lines on parking lots, curbs, warehouse floors and other pavement surfaces, and which can alternately be used in conjunction with a traditional line striper in cramped spaces or between parked cars, and which is easily converted from a 3-wheeled device to a 2-wheeled device for painting curved lines, and which permits adjustable positioning of the spray gun at a desired location on the cart to optimize the spray pattern in a particular application.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to compositions which are useful for reducing and/or preventing bacterial infection/superinfection. The compositions include at least two weak organic acids in an inert carrier vehicle and are delivered at a pH of about 2.5 to 4.5. The weak organic acids are preferably acetic acid, vinegar, citric acid or combinations thereof. The inert carrier vehicle is preferably an aqueous based carrier in a gel form utilizing CARBOPOL as a gelling agent. The compositions of the invention are particularly applicable for reducing and/or preventing bacterial infection/superinfection of wounds.

Abstract: A release mechanism for releasing high pressure fluid from an associated pressure vessel has connecting means for connecting to the pressure vessel, a support sleeve which has an axial and a radial opening, a sealing disc, supporting means which may be a trap door, a rotatable column, or a support plug and a protractor or retractor for selectively removing the supporting means and thus opening the sealing means. The sealing means can also be opened spontaneously, operating as a relief valve.

Abstract: A release mechanism for releasing pressurized fluid from an associated pressure vessel has sealing means for use in sealing an opening in the associated pressure vessel, supporting means for supporting the sealing means, first opening means for selectively opening the sealing means by removing the supporting means and, damping control means for damping the supporting means and also regulating the release of the high pressure fluid. To release pressurized fluid from the pressure vessel, the supporting means is removed out of supporting relationship with a sealing means. Next the supporting means is moved along its axis without damping, then with damping and, finally, with relatively light damping.
