Abstract

The invention is directed to a gun for supplying a compressed fluid having a housing defining a passageway for supplying the compressible fluid. A valve is moveably positioned with respect to the passageway for controlling the supply of the compressible fluid. The valve defines an aperture and the valve is moveable with respect to the passageway to vary the position of the aperture with respect to the passageway to control the supply of the compressible fluid. A discharge end is located on one end of the passageway. The discharge end is adapted to receive discharge nozzles for the gun whereby the compressible fluid acts as a driving fluid for different driven fluids or solids. There is also provided a number of attachments which can be utilized with the gun of the present invention.
