Claim:
1. A telescoping wand assembly for use in dispensing liquid from a container, comprising: a) a trigger module extending along a longitudinal axis between proximal and distal ends and comprising a tubular handle member, a user accessible trigger positioned externally of said tubular handle member and selectively movable between first and second positions, a hose positioned within said tubular handle member and adapted to transport liquid from the container, and a valve actuating member that is selectively, movably actuable by movement of said trigger between its first and second positions; b) a tube assembly interconnected to said handle member c) a first tube interconnected to said handle member and comprising opposing first and second ends and a predetermined internal cross-sectional dimension; d) a second tube positioned co-axially within said first tube and in fluid communication with said hose and comprising first and second ends and a predetermined external cross-sectional dimension, wherein said predetermined external cross-sectional dimension is less than said predetermined internal cross-sectional dimension of said first tube with a cross-sectional gap defined there between; e) a third tube coupled in sealed relation to and in fluid communication with said second tube wherein said third tube is selectively slidably movable along said longitudinal axis towards and away from said trigger module; f) a nozzle in fluid communication with said third tube; and g) a valve mechanically linked to said first tube and positioned between said third tube and said nozzle and in spring biased relation to said nozzle for selective movement between a first position wherein said nozzle is sealed relative to said third tube and a second position wherein said nozzle is in fluid communication with said third tube, whereby selective movement of said trigger between its first and second positions causes said first tube to longitudinally move which in turn causes said valve to move between its first and second positions, respectively.
