Trigger sprayer nozzle providing flow in various directions

A material dispenser nozzle assembly comprising:

• an inner nozzle element having an inward and an outward end surrounding an inner passageway adapted to conduct said treatment material from said inward end to said outward end;
• said inner nozzle element defining a nozzle axis along which said treatment material is conducted;
• said inner nozzle including an outlet defined at the outer end thereof, positioned at an outlet location spaced from said nozzle axis;
• a nozzle cap member supported by, and rotatably mounted on, said inner nozzle element, and including at least one dispensing orifice adapted to be selectively positioned in alignment with said outlet location;
• the nozzle cap member and inner nozzle outer end are spaced apart at said outer end so as to define an outward passage for said treatment material flowing from said inner passageway to said outlet location;
• said at least one defined dispensing orifice is configured at an acute angle relative to said nozzle passageway and axis;
• whereby treatment material flowing through said inner passageway and through said outward passage is redirected through said at least one dispensing orifice at said acute angle so as to exit said cap of said nozzle assembly at an angle to said inner passageway and nozzle axis.

In an apparatus for dispensing treatment material including a material source, a pump mechanism to move said material through an inner passageway to an apparatus outlet, and a nozzle assembly including a material dispenser nozzle assembly for directing a flow of said treatment material from said source and along a nozzle axis to said outlet, the improvement comprising:

• a material dispenser nozzle assembly comprising:
• an inner nozzle element having an inward and an outward end surrounding said inner passageway adapted to conduct said treatment material from said inward end to said outward end;
• said inner nozzle element defining a nozzle axis along which said treatment material is conducted;
• said inner nozzle including an outlet at the outer end thereof, positioned at an outlet location spaced from said nozzle axis;
• a nozzle cap member supported by, and rotatably mounted on, said inner nozzle element, and defining at least one dispensing orifice adapted to be selectively positioned in alignment with said outlet location;
• the nozzle cap member and inner nozzle outer end are spaced apart at said outer end so as to define an outward passage for said treatment material flowing from said inner passageway to said outlet location;
• sealing bosses opposingly disposed on said cap member and said inner nozzle outer end further defining said outward passage;
• said at least one dispensing orifice defined on said nozzle cap member is configured at an acute angle relative to said nozzle passageway and axis;
• whereby treatment material flowing through said inner passageway and through said outward passage is redirected through said at least one dispensing orifice at said acute angle so as to exit said cap of said nozzle assembly at an angle to said inner passageway and nozzle axis.
