Abstract

This invention relates to an improved sprayer means wherein the improvement comprises (a) a pressurized water feed, having a minimum pressure valve unit and leading to the mixing chamber of the nozzle spray head, which water feed is fed first to a water motor provided with a drive piston driven by the pressure of the inflowing water and then to a double-action metering pump having a metering piston coupled with said drive piston of the water motor, the cross-sectional area of the metering piston and the cross-sectional area of the drive piston being in a predetermined ratio; (b) a flexible container for chemicals residing in a detachable rigid vessel connected to a metering outlet line of the metering pump, said flexible container being connected by the mixing chamber of the nozzle spray head by a container outlet valve and a container line, the chemicals being displaced from the flexible container by water metered through the metering outlet line into the vessel; and (c) a feedback line leading from the cylinder of the metering pump to a pressure water connection valve that is capable of closing in the event of overpressure in the metering pump to shut off inflowing pressurized water.
