Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2015139759A1] A water application device (10, 100) may include a main body (20, 110) graspable along a handle portion (22, 119) thereof by an operator, an operable member (30, 140), and a flow channel. The main body (20, 110) may house a flow control assembly (50) configured to enable the device to execute a control function relative to flow of water through the device. The operable member (30, 140) may be operably coupled to the main body (20, 110) to interface with the flow control assembly (50) to alternately provide flow and stop flow through the device. The flow channel may be formed inside the main body to define a flow path between an inlet portion (26, 114) and an outlet portion (24, 112) of the device. The flow channel may define at least one critical area in which water is enabled to collect when the water application device is not applying water. The critical area may include at least one compensator receiver (320) configured to receive a compensator (300) comprising compressible material configured to enable the compensator to be compressed within the critical area to increase an effective volume of the critical area. One of the compensator or the critical area may be provided with at least one retention rib (330, 340) to facilitate holding the compensator in the critical area.
