Abstract:
1. A liquid spraying apparatus comprising: a spray gun, a reservoir for a liquid to be sprayed, wherein the reservoir is provided with a pair of hook members co-operable with a flange on the spray gun to secure the reservoir to the spray gun, and wherein the flange has pair of recesses arranged to pass a distal end of the hook members to connect the reservoir outlet to the spray gun inlet and the reservoir is rotatable relative to the spray gun to position the distal end of the hook members over a surface of the flange to prevent axial separation of the reservoir and spray gun; a connector that connects the reservoir to the spray gun to permit liquid to be withdrawn from the reservoir, the connector being releasable for detaching the reservoir from the spray gun; and a security clip for restricting release of the connector, wherein the security clip comprises a retainer part movable between an inoperative position in which the reservoir can be connected to and disconnected from the spray gun, and an operative position in which disconnection of the reservoir is restricted and wherein the retainer part is biased to the operative position.
