Abstract
Multiple nozzle spray head apparatus includes a base element and a nozzle selector plate rotatably secured to the base element. Different nozzle tips may be secured to the nozzle selector plate for delivering different quantities of spray. The nozzle selector plate includes a blank portion which represents or defines an off position for the apparatus. The nozzle selector plate may be rotated as desired to align a delivery port on the base element with a desired nozzle tip. Different embodiments of nozzle selector plates are disclosed. The base element may be secured to a quick disconnect unit for ease of replacement. The base element may include a groove which matingly engages locking elements on the quick disconnect unit, if desired.
