Abstract:
Disclosed is a nozzle assembly(100) that is compact in size and that uses plastic tubing as an injection needle. Standard plastic fittings are utilized, which are inexpensive and widely available. The nozzle assembly has a simple construction and can be easily assembled and disassembled in a few minutes by a user. Cleaning and/or replacement of parts is inexpensive. Plastic tubing can be used as an injection needle that has superior qualities over commonly used stainless steel injection needles. Flexure of the injection needle tubing is prevented because of the compact size of the nozzle cavity.
