Abstract
A spray nozzle comprising: a body comprising a duct, a seat arranged at the first end, and including an opening forming an inlet, a guide comprising a tubular jacket and a retaining member, the retaining member retaining the jacket in the duct, a plug mounted to slide axially in the channel of the jacket, the plug being pushed back against the opening by a spring, and in abutment against the bottom of the jacket, the guide comprising a radial vent, which comprises a vent channel isolated from the flow of fluid and connecting the inside of the guide jacket to a bore formed in the body of the spray nozzle.

Axial spray nozzle with vented valve, comprising:
- a spray nozzle body comprising an internal conduit, extending along an elongation axis XX′, said conduit having a symmetry of revolution about the elongation axis XX′, comprising a first end and a second end, and defined by an internal surface of the spray nozzle body, the second end forming a fluid outlet,
- a valve seat located at the first end of the internal conduit, comprising a port forming a fluid inlet to the spray nozzle,
- a valve guide comprising a tubular sleeve and a retaining element, the sleeve forming a channel, open at a first end, and closed by a bottom at a second end, the retaining element holding the sleeve in the internal conduit and coaxially with said conduit, the first end facing and being set beck from the port in the valve seat, the sleeve leaving a space between its peripheral surface and the internal surface of the spray nozzle body so as to enable fluid flow along a fluid flow direction, between the fluid inlet and outlet,
- a plug mounted free to slide axially in the channel of the sleeve, the plug being pushed into contact with the port in the valve seat by a compression spring, housed in the sleeve and stopped in contact with the bottom of the sleeve, so as to close off the port in the valve seat,
- the valve guide also comprising a radial vent, that comprises a vent channel isolated from the fluid flow in a leak tight manner, connecting the inside of the tubular guide sleeve at the reserve section, to a through radial drilling formed in the spray nozzle body.
