Abstract
To make a change of paint colors during painting work easy and thus quick to perform on a spray gun, the invention proposes a spray gun container having a paint holding area, which is accessible essentially through two main openings, and having at least one additional access to the paint holding area, in which the additional access is reclosable by means of a closure means, whereby said closure means is at least partially arranged in the additional access during the closing of the additional access.
Claims15
A spray gun container comprising:
- a bottom and a sidewall defining a paint holding cup with a top opening, a cover for covering the top opening and constructed for operational connection to a spray gun such that in a working position paint held in the paint holding cup flows from a bottom area in the direction of an opening in the cover for release through the spray gun,
- wherein the bottom has an additional opening configured as a passageway and arranged exterior of the bottom for providing an air supply to the paint holding area,
- a stopper held captive exterior of the bottom and removably received in the passageway for a fluidtight fit such that when the passageway is closed, the interior of the bottom is a flat surface;
- wherein the cover is provided with a screen for filtering the paint before it reaches the spray gun.
