Claim 7

A regulator for regulating the flow of liquids, said regulator comprising: a. a barrel having an extension affixed to one end; b. a handle affixed to said extension; c. one or more flexible tubes attached to one end of said barrel; d. trigger means pivotally mounted to said extension, said trigger means having valve means mounted thereon, said valve means at rest being in sealing engagement with said flexible tubes to refuse flow therethrough and on trigger actuation, said valve means being removed from sealing engagement from said flexible tubes to permit flow therethrough; e. said trigger means being provided with, a. a U-shaped housing, one end pivotally mounted to said barrel extension, said housing having a pair of arms each extending from either side of said housing, said arms being in parallel relationship to the longitudinal axis of said barrel extension, b. an axle connecting one of said arms with the other of said arms, said axle being perpendicular to said arms, c. a roller rotatably mounted on said axle, d. a spring having one end attached to said handle, and the other end attached to said housing, said spring exerting force against and pushing said housing away from said handle, and simultaneously pulling said arms and said roller toward the free end of said barrel extension.

Claim 8

A regulator for regulating the flow of liquids, said regulator comprising: a. a barrel having an extension affixed to one end; b. a handle affixed to said extension; c. one or more flexible tubes attached to one end of said barrel; d. trigger means pivotally mounted to said extension, said trigger means having valve means mounted thereon, said valve means at rest being in sealing engagement with said flexible tubes to refuse flow therethrough and on trigger actuation, said valve means being removed from sealing engagement from said flexible tubes to permit flow therethrough; e. said trigger means being provided with, a. a U-shaped housing, one end pivotally mounted to said barrel extension, said housing having a pair of arms each extending from either side of said housing, said arms being in parallel relationship to the longitudinal axis of said barrel extension, b. an axle connecting one of said arms with the other of said arms, said axle being perpendicular to said arms, c. a roller rotatably mounted on said axle, d. a spring having one end attached to said handle, and the other end attached to said housing, said spring exerting force against and pushing said housing away from said handle, and simultaneously pulling said arms and said roller toward the free end of said barrel extension.

Claim 9

The roller in claim 5 wherein half of said roller is a diameter different than the other half.

Claim 10

A regulator capable of controlling the flow of a plurality of separately confined streams of fluid, which regulator comprises: a. a body having one free end and a barrel affixed to the other end; b. a handle attached to the underside of said body and positioned such that a portion of said handle extends beyond the free end of said body; c. a spring-loaded trigger-actuated valve means pivotally mounted on said body; d. a plurality of flexible tubes attached to said barrel and positioned between said valve means and the free end of said body; and e. stop means on said body adapted to limit the angular movement of said trigger means so that said valve means stops at a predetermined position from said free end, said stop means including a side of said body.

Claim 11

A regulator capable of controlling the flow of a plurality of separately confined streams of fluid, which regulator comprises: a. a body having one free end and a barrel affixed to the other end; b. a handle attached to the underside of said body and positioned such that a portion of said handle extends beyond the free end of said body; c. a spring-loaded trigger-actuated valve means pivotally mounted on said body; d. a plurality of flexible tubes attached to said barrel and positioned between said valve means and the free end of said body; and e. stop means on said body adapted to limit the angular movement of said trigger means so that said valve means stops at a predetermined position from said free end, said stop means including a side of said body.

Claim 12

The regulator of claim 7 wherein said body is provided with a ridge positioned horizontally across the face of the free end of said body.

Claim 13

A regulator capable of controlling the flow of plurality of separately confined streams of fluids, which regulator comprises: a. a body having one free end and a barrel affixed to the other end; b. a handle attached to the underside of said body; c. a spring-loaded trigger-actuated valve means pivotally mounted on said body, a. a pair of housings, each pivotally mounted on either side of said body, b. a pair of arms, each extending from the mounted end of said housings, perpendicular thereto, said arms positioned in parallel relationship to the sides of said body, c. a pair of aXles, each attached at right angles to one of said arms and projecting toward said body, d. a pair of rollers rotatably attached to each of said axis and positioned near the face of the free end of said body, e. a pair of springs, each attached to and between said housings and said handle, and each adapted to urge said housings away from said handle; and d. a plurality of flexible tubes attached to said barrel and positioned between said valve means and the free end of said body.
