Abstract:
A sprayer that includes a tank for containing a liquid pesticide, herbicide, or the like, a pump for pressurizing the liquid contained within the tank, and a hose and wand assembly for dispersing the pressurized liquid onto an area of interest, such as weeds. The tank includes an opening formed through its top surface through which liquid can be poured into tank. A wide mouthed funnel defines the opening to assist in preventing fluid from spilling while being poured. The bottom of the tank is attached to a base unit that provides a reservoir for any liquids dripping on the exterior of the tank, while also providing a flared region in which the end of the wand can be positioned when not in use. A wand retaining clip is attached to the exterior of the funnel to secure the wand while not in use and further to direct the end of the wand into the flared region formed in the base of the unit.
