ABSTRACT:
A spray nozzle (10) attaches to a garden hose (H) used to water lawns and gardens comprising. A nozzle body (12) has formed in it a fluid inlet (14), a fluid outlet (16), and a fluid passage (18) extending between the inlet and outlet. The inlet attaches to the hose, and the outlet forms an orifice through which water sprays onto a lawn or garden. A valve (40) includes a valve stem (42) movable a position blocking the orifice to a position in which fluid discharges through the outlet. A handle (62) is grasped by a user of the hose and is attached to the valve stem for moving the stem relative to the orifice. The extent of this movement is a function of a desired spray pattern, this pattern being maintained so long as a constant grip pressure is maintained on the handle. A position clip (72) is movably mounted on the body is movable by the user. The clip, when in place, holds the handle in a position by which the desired spray pattern is maintained even when the user's grip pressure is released.
