摘要： An improved multi fluid dispenser for simultaneous dispensing of a plurality of fluids shown and described. The dispenser includes a controller that is linked to a coordinator board. The controller has a memory with a plurality of recipes stored in the memory. A coordinator board is linked to a first module. The first module may include one or two pumps, each connected to a fluid reservoir. The module is then linked in series to a plurality of other modules as well as a manifold module. Each module includes a module board for controlling the pump or pumps of that module. The controller, coordinator board and module boards are all programmed for the simultaneous or sequential pumping of multiple fluids from the reservoirs through outlet nozzles of the manifold in accordance with a recipe selected by the user and retrieved from the memory of the controller.

摘要： A paint dispenser for dispensing paint components such as colorants and possibly base into 5 gallon and 1 gallon containers is disclosed. The paint dispenser comprises a cabinet for accommodating a plurality of colorant and optionally base canisters in communication with a common dispense outlet. The canisters may be connected to individual pumps which, in turn, are connected to a dispense outlet. A container shelf unit is disposed in front of the cabinet and below the dispense outlet. The shelf unit comprises a base comprising a plurality of rollers particularly suitable for supporting and moving 5 gallon pails of paint. The base is disposed below the dispense outlet a first vertical distance sufficient to permit the 5 gallon cylindrical containers to be disposed on top of the rollers and below the dispense outlet without engaging the dispense outlet. The shelf unit further comprising a pivoting shelf being pivotally connected to the cabinet above the base. The pivoting shelf pivots between a first vertical position where the shelf is flat against the vertical cabinet thereby enabling a 1 gallon pail to be disposed on top of the rollers and below the dispense outlet. The shelf also pivots downward to a second horizontal position where the shelf is disposed above and parallel to the rollers and below the dispense outlet. In the second horizontal position, the pivoting shelf can support a 1 gallon can below the dispense outlet without engaging the dispense outlet.

摘要翻译： 公开了一种涂料分配器，用于将涂料组分如着色剂和可能的底部分配成5加仑和1加仑容器。 涂料分配器包括用于容纳多个着色剂和可选的与常见分配出口连通的基底罐的机壳。 罐可以连接到单独的泵，其又连接到分配出口。 容器搁架单元设置在机柜的前面并在分配出口下方。 货架单元包括一个底座，包括多个辊，特别适用于支撑和移动5加仑油漆桶。 基座设置在分配出口下方的第一垂直距离，足以允许5加仑圆柱形容器设置在辊的顶部并且在分配出口下方而不与分配出口接合。 搁架单元还包括枢转架，其枢转地连接到在基座上方的机柜。 枢转架在第一垂直位置之间枢转，在第一垂直位置，搁架平坦地抵靠垂直柜，从而使得1加仑桶设置在辊的顶部和分配出口下方。 搁架还向下枢转到第二水平位置，其中货架设置在辊子上方并平行于分配出口。 在第二水平位置，枢转架可以支撑在分配出口下方的1加仑罐，而不接合分配出口。

摘要： An improved cosmetics dispensing system that includes a controller, a plurality of mutating pumps, a plurality of reservoirs of cosmetics ingredients, a plurality of nozzles, a manifold for concentrically supporting the nozzles, a turntable rotatably connected beneath the manifold wherein the turntable includes a through opening for permitting the passage of fluid from one of the nozzles through the turntable, a motor for rotating the turntable, and wherein the controller is linked to each of the mutating pumps and the motor and each pump is in fluid communication with one of the reservoirs and vice versa and each pump is connected to one of the nozzles and vice versa. The system is computer operated whereby the turntable can rotate in either of the clockwise or counterclockwise directions and the turntable is equipped with a container holder that can accommodate containers of varying sizes. An improved method of dispensing ingredients for a cosmetic application at a point of sale is also disclosed which avoids coating an interior wall of the container with tints or colorants which are difficult to mix into the final solution once they engage the container wall or next surface.
