Abstract: A spray gun assembly having a paint cup, a removable lid, a pivotable syphon tube unit rotatably secured to the lid and having an intake end located inside the paint cup, and a handle attached to the pivotable syphon tube unit exterior of the paint cup above the lid. The pivotable syphon tube unit is rotatable in the lid to permit manually positioning the intake end to the lower most region of the paint cup so that the intake end stays immersed in liquid when the spray gun assembly is tilted to a particular position.

Abstract: A manually operable power unit for paint scraping and the like comprising a casing with a longitudinal axis having a handle to enable portable use by the operator, an electro-magnetic motor mounted within the casing including a stator and an armature mounted relative to the stator for movement parallel to the longitudinal axis, a bladeholder connected to the armature reciprocally movable in unison together, the bladeholder extending generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the casing and the direction of movement of the reciprocating armature to provide contemporaneous colinear movement of the bladeholder and the armature to substantially eliminate bending forces on the bladeholder imposed by the electromagnetic drive forces of the motor, the motor being operable on energization to move the armature and the bladeholder from a starting position to an extended position, and a spring connected to the bladeholder which is compressed when the bladeholder is moved to its extended position and the spring opera
