A manually operated spray applicator to deposit plaster or the like against a wall surface in a spray pattern. There is a forward containing chamber for the plaster, a rear pressurizing chamber to supply the pressurized air through a discharge stem, and an intermediate positioning chamber having a moveable piston which moves the discharge stem between its open and closed positions. There is a control valve which is operable by a trigger which selectively vents a bypass passageway that pressurizes the positioning chamber to move the discharge stem between its open and closed positions.

A spray applicator to discharge a fluid material in a spray pattern by means of pressurized air, said applicator comprising: a. a housing having a front end and a rear end, with said housing comprising: i. a front wall and a first intermediate wall positioned rearwardly of the front wall, and defining with said front wall a front fluid containing chamber, said front wall having a front discharge opening leading from the fluid containing chamber, ii. a second intermediate wall positioned rearwardly of said first intermediate wall, and defining with said first intermediate wall a secondary pressurizing chamber, iii. a third rear wall positioned rearwardly of said second intermediate wall, and defining therewith a main pressurizing chamber which is located rearwardly of said secondary pressurizing chamber; b. a discharge stem defining a through air passageway and having a front outlet end and a rear inlet end, said discharge stem having a forward portion positioned in said containing chamber, and a rear portion extending through said first and second intermediate walls, in a manner so as to be moveable in a forward to rear direction; c. a locating piston means being fixedly secured to said discharge stem and being positioned in said secondary pressurizing chamber so as to be moveable from a forward closure position at which the front end of the discharge stem closes the front discharge opening from the containing chamber, and a rear position where the front end of the discharge stem is spaced rearwardly of the outlet opening from the containing chamber; d. a bypass passageway means having a first end leading from said main pressurizing chamber and a second end connecting to a forward portion of said secondary pressurizing chamber, whereby pressurized air in said main pressurizing chamber is able to flow through said bypass passageway into said secondary pressurizing chamber forwardly of said locating piston; e. a spring means operatively connected between said discharge stem and said housing to urge said discharge stem forwardly into the closed position; f. means to deliver pressurized air into said main pressurizing chamber; g. said spring means, said locating piston, and said bypass passageway means being arranged in a manner that when a predetermined level of pressure is reached in said main pressurizing chamber, air pressure transmitted into said secondary pressurizing chamber forwardly of said locating piston is sufficient to overcome a force exerted by said spring means to cause said discharge stem to move rearwardly so that the forward end of the discharge stem moves away from the discharge opening leading from the containing chamber; h. operator actuated pressure control valve means which is operatively connected to said bypass passageway means and to said main pressurizing chamber, said valve means having a first position by which pressurized air flows from said main pressurizing chamber, through said bypass passageway means and to the forward portion of the secondary pressurizing chamber to cause the discharge stem to move rearwardly and by which said pressurized air flows from said main pressurizing chamber through said air passageway of the discharge stem, and a second position where air in the forward portion of the secondary pressurizing chamber is vented to reduce pressure in said forward portion, while any flow from said main pressurizing chamber is sufficiently limited so that a pressure level in said main pressurizing chamber is sufficiently high to maintain said flow of pressurized air through the discharge stem; whereby when pressurized air flows into said pressurizing chamber, with said valve means in said first position, there is an immediate outflow of air through said air passageway in the discharge stem, and also pressurized air flows through said valve means and through said bypass passageway into the forward portion of the secondary pressurizing chamber and reaches a level to cause rearward movement of said locating piston and said stem, so as to permit fluid in said containing chamber to pass into an airstream passing from said discharge stem and be discharged into the airstream through the discharge opening, and when said valve means is moved to said second position, air is vented from the forward portion of said secondary pressurizing chamber so as to reduce pressure in said forward portion so that said locating piston and said discharge stem move forwardly so that the front end of the discharge stem closes the front discharge opening from the containing chamber while pressurized air continues to flow from said main pressurizing chamber through said discharge stem and out the front outlet end of the stem.
