Patent ID: 8820661

Claim:
A hose end sprayer with multi-size bottle connectors comprising: a lid including: a cap having a top and two annular bottle connectors with different diameters positioned on an underside of the top; a liquid conduit extending across the top, the conduit having an inlet at one end that is attachable to a hose and an outlet nozzle at an opposite end for discharging liquid; and a siphon tube having an upper end connected to and in fluid communication with an interior of the conduit at a point inside of the periphery of the smaller bottle connector, the siphon tube extending downwardly from the upper end to a lower end positioned below the upper end, the siphon tube being formed such that liquid in communication with the lower end of the siphon tube is urged upwardly from the lower end through the upper end into the liquid conduit as a result of liquid flowing through the liquid conduit causing the admixture of liquid in the inlet conduit with liquid drawn through the siphon tube, with the admixed liquids being discharged from the outlet nozzle; at least one adapter threaded at a first end to be attachable to one of the annular bottle connectors and threaded at a second end, opposed to the first end, having a diameter that is different from both of the two annular bottle connectors; and at least one liquid container adapted to hold a liquid chemical, the liquid container having an open mouth of a size and shape that mates with and is releasably attachable to one of the annular bottle connectors or the adapter, such that when the container is attached to the lid, or when the container is attached to the adapter and the adapter is attached to the lid, and the container is filled with a sufficient quantity of liquid chemical that the liquid chemical is in communication with the lower end of the siphon tube, the liquid chemical is siphoned into liquid that is transmitted through the sprayer from the hose inlet to the nozzle, thereby causing admixed liquids to be discharged from the nozzle.
