The valve assembly remains in place and another valve assembly and nozzle is provided at the end of the extension furthest away from the handle. A rod is attached to and extends between the valves so that they both move together from closed to open positions responsive to the trigger of the spray gun. When the valves are closed, there is no spraying liquid in the extension. The valving is dripless both with and without the extension.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2011Date of Patent: January 27, 2015Assignee: Chapin Manufacturing, Inc.Inventor: James R. Fontaine
