  • the feed channels of the known Focht nozzle are separated from one another by separating bodies such as guide or baffles; they start from a common outer annular chamber and end in a common central outlet opening.
  • these known spray nozzles do not sufficiently meet the requirements placed on many products to be sprayed, such as hair varnish, deodorants, air fresheners or insecticides.
  • they should have a particle size between 5 and 10 ⁇ , in particular for hair varnish, in order to achieve a rapid evaporation time, so that streaking of the hair is avoided when the consumer squeezes the hairstyle after spraying.

  • the sprayed product must be sufficient despite the finest particle size have strong impact force when it comes to hair lacquer so that it not only lies on the hair, but can also penetrate between them, which ensures an airy hairstyle.
  • the spray cloud should penetrate the air space as far as possible.
  • Spray nozzles such as those available for aerosol cans or pump atomizers, require a pressure of at least 6 atü to generate spray clouds of the aforementioned quality, if they are used without a liquid gas component, approx. 3 atü in the presence of such a component, because a propellant consisting of liquid gas relaxes in contact with the ambient air and thus plays a key role in the formation of the fine droplet size in the spray cloud.
  • the spray nozzle according to the invention is preferably to be used for liquid gas-free atomization without an air pump and without other propellants (propellantless dispensers), but with a maximum of 2.4 atmospheres, possibly less pressure depending on the storage time, the nozzle must be designed so that it is able to deliver the required spray quality with relatively low pressure, but is simple and cheap to produce, while in the presence of liquid gas in the product and correspondingly higher pressures it achieves a previously unknown, significantly increased fineness of the particles in the spray cloud shall be;
