摘要： A finger actuated pump dispenser employs a first upper hollow vertical cylinder with a first diameter and open upper and lower ends and a second lower hollow vertical cylinder with a second and smaller diameter and a closed lower end with a central opening. The lower end of the first cylinder is joined to an open upper end of the second cylinder. The inner wall of the second cylinder has a horizontal annular recess. A first vertical hollow piston has openings in top and bottom ends and extends slidably above and within the cylinders. The first piston has an enlargement intermediate upper and lower ends peripherally engaging and defining a first unbroken seal with the inner surface of the first cylinder. The first piston has a lower section extending downward from the enlargement to its lower end, the lower section having an outer diameter slightly less than the diameter of the second cylinder. A second vertical piston peripherally engages and defines a second seal with the inner surface of the second cylinder. The second seal is unbroken except when the second piston is aligned with and spaced from the annular recess. A vertical stem is disposed slidably within the first piston and is secured at its lower end to the upper end of the said second piston. The stem is longer than the first piston so that there is always a vertical separation between the lower end of the first piston and the lower end of the stem. A spring extends within the second cylinder between its lower end and the lower end of the second piston.

摘要： Disclosed is the development of a miniaturized flashlight which includes a top, and bottom, each of which is snap-fittingly secured to the other and joined by a further element, a flexible tubular housing member. The tubular member is desirably of an elliptical cross-section, but can be rectangular and multi-sided. The top and bottom are proportionally adapted to accept the cross-section of the tubular housing. A battery bridge is provided at the bottom of the bottom portion along with upstanding battery separators to thereby physically separate two batteries while electrically puting them in partial series contact. The top is adapted to fit over and ride upon the tubular member. The top has a separate electronic bridge at its upper portion for permanently engaging one battery, and leaf spring for selectively electrically engaging the adjacent bulb base above the other battery to thereby activate the circuit to illuminate the light bulb located in the top. The method addresses itself to providing a plurality of bottoms, tops, tubular members, batteries, light bulbs, and billboards all of which can be assembled by first inserting the batteries and then positioning the paper billboard interiorly of the tubular member. Thereafter the top is secured to the bottom. The top secures the contact switch in place so that it permanently contacts one battery adjacent the point where secured, and the leaf springs of the contact switch are yieldably engageable with the lower portion of the light bulb.

摘要： Upper and lower hollow cylinders communicate with each other. The diameter of the upper cylinder is larger than that of the lower cylinder. The lower cylinder has an opening through which fluid to be dispensed can be introduced. A piston has an upper vertical hollow cylindrical section open at opposite ends with a first extension in peripheral sealing engagement with the inner surface of the upper cylinder and a lower extension in peripheral sealing engagement with the inner surface of the lower cylinder. An aperture is located in the second extension between its ends. A vertical stem is slidable within and extends through the upper section of the piston. The stem has an enlargement spaced below its upper end. A vertical discharge conduit is coaxial with the piston and stem. An actuator is disposed above the upper cylinder, being secured to the upper end of the stem and having a horizontal discharge channel which communicates with the discharge conduit. The actuator slidably receives the upper end of the upper section of the piston in a region defining a gap. The stem is biased by a spring to close the discharge conduit and to position the enlargement above the aperture when the dispenser is in rest position. The spring is disposed outside the cylinders to exert an upwardly directed biasing force against the actuator and against the upper end of the stem. The piston and actuator can be interconnected in such manner that the dispenser can be placed in locked down position without actuation. This interconnection can be used regardless of the placement of the spring outside or inside the cylinders.

摘要： A lower end of a first hollow cylinder is connected to an upper end of a second hollow cylinder. A first outer hollow stem has an intermediately disposed first external enlargement disposed within the first cylinder. A hollow vertical main piston is vertically slidable within the first cylinder. A second inner stem extends upwardly through the main piston and through a bore in the first stem. A space between an upper section of the second stem and the first stem defines a vertical fluid discharge path. An upper end of an integral lower vertical section of the second stem engages the lower end of the main piston so that a horizontal channel extends between the lower section and the lower end of the main piston and connects the region between the lower section and the inner wall of the first cylinder to the fluid discharge path. A fluid discharge port is formed between the upper ends of the first section and the inner stem. A vertical inner piston has an upper end engagable with the lower end of the lower section and is vertically slidable in the second cylinder. A second outwardly extending enlargement of the second cylinder engages the inner wall of the second cylinder. An arrangement normally biases the discharge port closed and opens the discharge port during a selected point on the downstroke.

摘要： An atomizing dispenser employs a vertical hollow elongated body with upper and lower ends and an orifice centered on the body axis and disposed between the upper and lower body ends. A hollow sleeve is disposed within the body with a relatively large open lower end and a relatively small open upper end and is vertically slidable. A vertically movable member has a lower enlarged section disposed within the sleeve and an upper section extending through the upper end of the sleeve. A vertically movable hollow piston has upper and lower open ends. The upper section of the member extends through the lower end of the piston into the piston interior; the lower end of the piston slidably engaging the inner surface of the upper body end. A pump chamber defined by a hollow region bounded by adjacent portions of the body, piston, member and sleeve is normally filled with fluid and is sealed at first and second ports to prevent fluid from leaking out of the chamber when the piston, member and sleeve are in fully raised positions. The first port allows fluid to enter the chamber when the member is raised while engaging the piston; the second port allows fluid to be discharged from the chamber when the member is lowered and is disengaged from the piston.
