In operation, referring to FIGS. 9-11 with reference to FIGS. 1-8, when the drive handle 34 is pulled upward from the position as shown in FIG. 9 to the position as shown in FIG. 10, the drive shaft 31 is rotated to move the crank 49 downward which moves the two linking members 482 downward which move the connecting member 48 downward which moves the piston rod 45 downward which moves the piston 44 downward. Thus, the piston 44 is moved downward in the piston cylinder 43 to compress the air in the piston 44 and to produce a thrust in the conduit 440 of the piston 44 so as to push the stop disk 443 outwardly relative to the piston 44 to detach from the conducting holes 441 of the piston 44 so as to connect the conduit 440 of the piston 44 to the piston chamber 430 of the piston cylinder 43 via the conducting holes 441 of the piston 44. At this time, the sealing disk 436 is driven downward by a suction force to seal the conducting bores 434 of the piston cylinder 43. In such a manner, a liquid in the container 10 in turn flows through the inlet holes 413 of the pressure tank 41, the inlet bores 431 of the piston cylinder 43, the inlet ports 451 of the piston rod 45, the passage 450 of the piston rod 45, the conduit 440 of the piston 44 and the conducting holes 441 of the piston 44 into the piston chamber 430 of the piston cylinder 43 as shown in FIG. 10 until the piston chamber 430 of the piston cylinder 43 is filled with the liquid.
On the contrary, when the drive handle 34 is pulled downward from the position as shown in FIG. 10 to the position as shown in FIG. 11, the drive shaft 31 is rotated to move the crank 49 upward which moves the two linking members 482 upward which move the connecting member 48 upward which moves the piston rod 45 upward which moves the piston 44 upward. Thus, the piston 44 is moved upward in the piston cylinder 43 to compress the liquid in the piston chamber 430 of the piston cylinder 43 so as to push the sealing disk 436 outwardly relative to the piston cylinder 43 and to detach the sealing disk 436 from the conducting bores 434 of the piston cylinder 43 so as to connect the piston chamber 430 of the piston cylinder 43 to the pressure chamber 410 of the pressure tank 41 via the conducting bores 434 of the piston cylinder 43. At this time, the stop disk 443 is driven downward by a suction force to seal the conducting holes 441 of the piston 44. In such a manner, the liquid in the piston chamber 430 of the piston cylinder 43 is compressed to flow through the conducting bores 434 of the piston cylinder 43 into the pressure chamber 410 of the pressure tank 41.
The above-mentioned procedures are repeated successively until the pressure chamber 410 of the pressure tank 41 is filled with the liquid. Thus, the liquid in the pressure chamber 410 of the pressure tank 41 is delivered through the outlet port 412 of the pressure tank 41 into the outlet pipe 50 and is sprayed outwardly from the outlet pipe 50 for a gardening use.
As shown in FIGS. 5, 6 and 12, when the pressure in the pressure chamber 410 of the pressure tank 41 is too high and exceeds a predetermined value, the control knob 4243 of the control handle 424 is moved rotate the control handle 424 relative to the release pin 421 so that the lower guide track 4242 of the control handle 424 is moved to abut the release pin 421 so as to release the elastic member 423. Thus, a determined amount liquid in the pressure chamber 410 of the pressure tank 41 can be introduced into the container 10 by control of the pressure release valve 42 so as to release and control the pressure in the pressure chamber 410 of the pressure tank 41.
As shown in FIG. 13, the drive device 30a includes two opposite connectors 33 secured on the two opposite ends 311 of the drive shaft 31 respectively, and the drive handle 34 of the drive device 30 is selectively mounted on one of the two opposite connectors 33.
Accordingly, the container 10 is provided with a plurality of fixing plates 103 secured in the fixing brackets 203 of the base 20 so that the container 10 is combined with the base 20 solidly and stably to enhance the strength of the sprayer. In addition, the piston rod 45 of the pumping device 40 is encompassed and protected by the barrel 46, and the crank 49 of the pumping device 40 is encompassed between and protected by the two guard brackets 47, so that the piston rod 45 and the crank 49 of the pumping device 40 are operated exactly and stably without deviating from the central position. Further, the drive device 30 includes two connectors 33 secured on the two opposite ends 311 of the drive shaft 31 respectively, and the drive handle 34 of the drive device 30 is selectively mounted on one of the two connectors 33 to fit the requirement of right-handed and left-handed users. Further, the user can control the control knob 4243 of the control handle 424 to release and decrease the pressure in the pressure chamber 410 of the pressure tank 41 automatically without having to touch the liquid that many be toxic, thereby protecting the user's safety.
Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment(s) as mentioned above, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. It is, therefore, contemplated that the appended claim or claims will cover such modifications and variations that fall within the true scope of the invention.
