Abstract: A filter bowl and filter cover assembly is provided wherein the filter bowl is adapted to be easily mounted upon and removed from the filter cover by a plurality of bolt fasteners as a result of the bolt fasteners, connecting the filter bowl to the filter cover, being loosened to a predetermined degree and rotating the filter bowl relative to the filter housing in a clockwise direction so as to permit the head portions of the bolt fasteners to pass through key-hole shaped apertures formed within the filter cover. The filter bowl is able to likewise be easily and quickly re-installed upon the filter cover as a result of a reversal of the aforenoted removal procedures.

Abstract: A liquid paint reservoir, which is adapted to be mounted atop a paint spray gun, has an adaptor or head portion sealingly mounted within an opening of the reservoir, and a substantially rigid support member extends internally within the liquid paint reservoir so as to effectively prevent the liquid paint reservoir from flopping or folding over upon itself during a paint spraying operation which could operatively interfere with the dispensing of the paint, or which could prevent the complete evacuation of the liquid paint from the liquid paint reservoir, or which could adversely alter the desired control of the paint spray gun by the operator personnel so as to, in turn, adversely affect the preciseness and finish appearance of the paint being sprayed onto a particular substrate.

Abstract: A dispensing system for a plural component mixture includes a dispensing device, a first container which may or may not be flexible, and separate flexible second containers for each of the components. The second containers are adapted to be placed within the first container. The first container is adapted to be held by an operator during dispensing of plural component mixture from the dispensing device. Separate conduits are coupled between the second containers and the dispensing device. The dispensing device includes a passageway for the passage of each respective component through the dispensing device. Each passageway includes a valve. An actuator controls the valves, thereby controlling the passage of the respective components through the dispensing device. A second valve is coupled in the conduits between the respective components' sources and the dispensing device.

Abstract: A fluid supply assembly. The fluid supply assembly includes a disposable cup and lid, and a reusable shell and outer lid. A flexible, disposable cup, a reusable shell, and a method of preparing a fluid supply assembly for use with a fluid supply applicator are also described.

Abstract: A flexible, disposable liner for use in a fluid supply assembly. The disposable liner is made of an antistatic material. In use, the chargeable particles in a coating mixture do not stick to the disposable liner so that uniformity of the coating mixture is maintained while it is dispensed. A method of maintaining the uniformity of a coating mixture during dispensing is also described.

Abstract: A flexible, disposable cup for use in a fluid supply assembly. The disposable cup is made of an antistatic material whereby chargeable particles in a coating mixture do not stick to the disposable cup so that uniformity of the coating mixture is maintained while it is dispensed. A method of maintaining the uniformity of a coating mixture during dispensing is also described.
