Patent attributes
The invention relates to a gravity flow reservoir for a paint spraying gun having a container and a cover, which can be placed thereon and which has a connecting part in order to place the gravity flow reservoir onto the paint spraying gun or onto an adapter. Prior art reservoirs require a separate pointed tool, which serves to make a vent hole, is often unavailable and can lead to operating errors. The aim of the invention is to provide a paint reservoir system that enables a simple, rapid and uncomplicated insertion of a vent hole into the container wall of the gravity flow reservoir while preventing shavings or plastic parts from entering the gravity flow reservoir. To this end, a delimited area is provided in the wall of the container and can be penetrated by the pointed tool in order to make a vent hole.
