Abstract
An attachment for an air blow gun includes a nozzle and a nozzle insert. The nozzle is a hollow cylinder and includes radial pinholes at one end. The nozzle insert includes a longitudinal pinhole. The nozzle insert is inserted into the end of the nozzle with the radial pinholes. When high-pressure air is delivered to the attachment, plumes of high-velocity air exit from the radial pinholes and the longitudinal pinhole. The attachment is particularly well suited to cleaning confined spaces in workpieces with high-velocity air.
Claims19
An apparatus comprising:
- a nozzle that is hollow cylindrical, centered about a central longitudinal nozzle axis, defines distal internal threads proximate to a distal end of the nozzle, and defines a plurality of radial pinholes proximate to the distal end and directed radially to the central longitudinal nozzle axis;
- and
- a nozzle insert that is cylindrical, centered about a central longitudinal insert axis, defines insert external threads, and defines a longitudinal pinhole along the central longitudinal insert axis;
- wherein the nozzle insert is fixedly inserted into the distal end of the nozzle with the insert external threads threadably engaging the distal internal threads.
