Abstract
The invention is a spray attachment for a hose having a threaded cap wherein the spray attachment has a suction cup attachable to a slick surface such as the outer surface of a car or boat, a flexible, receiving cap defining a flexible cylindrical opening attached to the suction cup; a beveled insertion cap, insert-able within the cylindrical opening; a frictional contact for releasably retaining the insertion cap within the cylindrical opening wherein the frictional contact is the frictional contact between the walls of the flexible cylindrical opening and the outside surface of the beveled insertion cap; and a spray attachment attached to the insertion cap; the spray attachment having a threaded opening for receiving the threaded cap.
Claims6
A spray attachment for a hose having a threaded cap attachable to a slick surface comprising:
- a) a spray attachment;
- b) an attachment means for releasing and gripping the spray attachment;
- c) a suction cup attachable to the slick surface and attachable to the attachment means so as not to interfere with the releasing and gripping of the spray attachment and wherein the suction cup further comprises an insertion cap with an opening having an opening diameter;
- the attachment means having a rim at an insertion end with a diameter at least the size of the opening diameter so that when the rim is inserted within the opening the frictional contact between the cap and the rim holds the rim within the opening and wherein the attachment means is beveled and has a length along the bevel and wherein the bevel has a diameter less than the diameter of opening adjacent the rim and then diverges to a diameter greater than the opening along the length of the bevel.
A spray attachment for a hose having a threaded cap attachable to a slick surface comprising:
- a) a spray attachment;
- b) an attachment means for releasing and gripping the spray attachment;
- c) a suction cup attachable to the slick surface and attachable to the attachment means so as not to interfere with the releasing and gripping of the spray attachment and wherein the suction cup further comprises an insertion cap with an opening having an opening diameter;
- the attachment means having a rim at an insertion end with a diameter at least the size of the opening diameter so that when the rim is inserted within the opening such that the frictional contact between the cap and the rim holds the rim within the opening and wherein the rim has a distal diameter greater than the diameter of the opening and wherein the rim is flexible so that the rim flexes inward and grips the insertion cap;
- d) a retaining means for releasably retaining the rim within the opening attached to the insertion cap, and wherein said spray attachment has a threaded opening for receiving the threaded cap.
