A power paint applicating unit includes a horizontal base having a paint pump, an upright member projecting from the base and having manually operable controls, and a horizontal top pivotally connected to the upright member and overlying a portion of the base unit so that standard paint cans fit therebetween. The hinged top member includes an intake dip tube for drawing paint from the paint can and feeding it through a variable pressure shut-off to a paint applicator unit, such as a roller. A rest is provided for the roller in the hinged top which is formed to provide a handle for lifting.

A power member for applying paint, comprising: a base unit having a base member with a receptacle receiving top surface portion; an upright member projecting above said base member from adjacent said receiving surface; a substantially horizontal member supported from said upright member and having a portion overlying said receiving surface in spaced relation thereto and a portion overlying a portion of the upright member, said substantially horizontal member hingedly connected to said upright member and movable between a first position wherein said horizontal top member lies in a plane substantially parallel to a plane of the base unit and a second position wherein the horizontal member does not lie in a plane parallel to the plane of the base member and said portions of the horizontal member being rotatable with respect to the upright member above portions of the upright member, whereby a receptacle received on said receptacle receiving surface will underlie said horizontal member when said top member is in said first position, and said receptacle will be easily partially vertically removable from said unit when said horizontal member is in said second position; lock means carried by one of said members for selectively locking said horizontal member in said first position; pump means located substantially in said base member; an elongated stiff suction tube depending from said horizontal member and projectable into a receptacle on said receptacle receiving surface for drawing material from the receptacle, the hinge connection between said horizontal member and said upright member cooperating with a position of said suction tube with respect to said horizontal member such that movement of said top member from said first position to said second position allows said tube to pivot into and out of a paint container received on the receptacle receiving top surface portion; means connecting said pump means and said suction tube; for fluid communication therebetween; and discharge means operatively connected to said pump means for discharging material drawn from the receptacle on said receptacle receiving surface.
