The invention includes a spraying device (10) for producing a precise degree of liquid droplet generation on a repeatable basis by combining a specified rate of regulated flow of liquid material with a regulated flow of high-pressure air. The spraying device (10 ) includes an electric or engine driven direct drive compressor (12 ). Coupled to the compressor (12) is an air storage tank (14 ) providing air pulsation reduction to the regulated air and serves as a reservoir for excess airflow generation. A Venturi nozzle (18) is connected to the compressor (12). A liquid supply tube (24) uses a fixed or variable restriction to regulate the liquid flow to the nozzle (18). The vacuum in the liquid supply line (24) draws this liquid flow and mixes the liquid externally with the regulated air in exacting proportions forming specified liquid droplet sizes. The device (10) uses air and liquid regulation combined with a Venturi nozzle (18) and is able to generate extremely consistent liquid droplet sizes.

The invention claimed is: 1. A portable spraying system comprising: a first component comprising a compressor air tank and frame assembly including a gasoline engine direct drive compressor for introducing a regulated air flow into the system, at least one air storage tank in fluid connection with said compressor for reducing air pulsation within said regulated air flow and an automatic engagement switch intermediate said storage tank and said compressor for engaging and disengaging said compressor; and a second component comprising a reservoir and nozzle assembly including a Venturi nozzle fluidly connected to said compressor via a manual switch, said manual switch applying said regulated air flow from said compressor to said Venturi nozzle, said Venturi nozzle including a nozzle cone external to and internally fluidly connected with said Venturi nozzle and a reservoir tank fluidly connected to said Venturi nozzle by a liquid supply tube, said reservoir tank containing a solution to be sprayed, said liquid supply tube having a restriction to regulate said solution flow to said nozzle, wherein said second component is reliably attached to said frame of said first component by attaching means, said attaching means comprising a U-shaped cradle, wherein said first and second components are self-contained and may be used separately or together. 2. The portable spraying system of claim 1, said second component further comprising a second Venturi nozzle fluidly connected to said compressor and a valve intermediate said Venturi nozzles for allowing fluid flow to one or both nozzles. 3. The portable spraying system of claim 1, said first component further comprising a regulator/gauge quick coupler assembly removably attached to said at least one air storage tank providing dual usage of said first component as a spraying device or an air compressor. 4. The portable spraying system of claim 2, wherein said Venturi nozzles are formed of a corrosion resistant material. 5. The portable spraying system of claim 2, wherein said second component further comprises a shield extending from said cradle above said Venturi nozzles for protecting said nozzles when said spraying device is accidentally tipped. 6. The portable spraying system of claim 1, wherein said restriction of said liquid supply tube is a fixed restriction. 7. The portable spraying system of claim 1, wherein said restriction of said liquid supply tube is a variable restriction. 8. The portable spraying system of claim 1, wherein said manual switch is a 4-way, 3-position manual control pneumatic valve providing a means for directing said regulated air to said nozzle cone for cleaning of said nozzle without disassembly of said nozzle or shut down of said spraying system. 9. A portable spraying system comprising: a first component comprising a compressor air tank and frame assembly including a direct drive compressor for introducing a regulated air flow into the system, at least one air storage tank in fluid connection with said compressor for reducing air pulsation within said regulated air flow and a first switch intermediate said storage tank and said compressor for engaging and disengaging said compressor; and a second component comprising a reservoir and nozzle assembly including a nozzle fluidly connected to said compressor via a second switch, said second switch applying said regulated air flow from said compressor to said nozzle, and a reservoir tank fluidly connected to said nozzle by a liquid supply tube, said reservoir tank containing a solution to be sprayed, wherein said nozzle includes a nozzle cone external to and internally fluidly connected with said nozzle, wherein said second component is releasably attached to said frame of said first component by attaching means, said attaching means comprising a cradle or bracket. 10. The portable spraying system of claim 9, wherein the first switch comprises an automatic engagement switch and the second switch comprises a manual switch. 11. The portable spraying system of claim 9, wherein said liquid supply tube includes a restriction to regulate said solution flow to said nozzle. 12. The portable spraying system of claim 9, wherein said second component further comprising a second nozzle fluidly connected to said compressor and a valve intermediate said nozzles for allowing fluid flow to one or both nozzles. 13. The portable spraying system of claim 9, wherein said first component further comprising a regulator/gauge quick coupler assembly removably attached to said at least one air storage tank providing dual usage of said first component as a spraying device or an air compressor. 14. The portable spraying system of claim 12, wherein said nozzles are formed of a corrosion resistant material. 15. The portable spraying system of claim 12, further including an attachment means comprising U-shaped cradle for reliably attaching said frame and said first component. 16. The portable spraying system of claim 12, wherein said second component further comprises a shield extending from said cradle above said nozzles for protecting said nozzles when said spraying device is accidentally tipped. 17. The portable spraying system of claim 11, wherein said restriction of said liquid supply tube is a fixed restriction. 18. The portable spraying system of claim 11, wherein said restriction of said liquid supply tube is a variable restriction. 19. The portable spraying system of claim 10 wherein said manual switch is a 4-way, 3-position manual control pneumatic valve providing a means for directing said regulated air to said nozzle cone for cleaning of said nozzle without disassembly of said nozzle or shut down of said spraying system. 20. A portable spraying system comprising: a first component comprising a compressor air tank and frame assembly including a direct drive compressor for introducing a regulated air flow into the system, at least one air storage tank in fluid connection with said compressor for reducing air pulsation within said regulated air flow and a first switch intermediate said storage tank and said compressor for engaging and disengaging said compressor; and a second component comprising a reservoir and Venturi nozzle assembly including a Venturi nozzle fluidly connected to said compressor via a second switch, said second switch applying said regulated air flow from said compressor to said Venturi nozzle, and a reservoir tank fluidly connected to said Venturi nozzle by a liquid supply tube, said reservoir tank containing a solution to be sprayed, wherein said second component is releasably attached to said frame of said first component, by attaching means, said attaching means comprising a cradle or bracket, and wherein said first and second components are self-contained and may be used separately or together.
