Abstract:
A heated fluid dispensing system including a heated dispenser and a docking element. The heated dispenser includes a housing with a docking interface, a channel heat exchanger disposed in the housing and an electrical heater associated with the channel heat exchanger. The channel heat exchanger has a channel in fluid communication with a valve on an aerosol can. The docking element includes a flange and a housing interface, the flange attachable to a cap ring on an aerosol can, the housing interface is both releasably attachable to and actuatable with the docking interface.
Abstract:
The present invention 10 discloses a portable water container having a housing 22 with a fill cap 38 with a water valve 40 and means 44 within the housing for pumping the water 56 out of the housing 22. In addition, a vent 34 is also positioned within the housing opposite the fill cap 38. A handle 32, located at the top center portion of the device, allows for easy transporting of the container 22. A 12-volt plug 28 and coil cord 30 extends from the interior of the housing container having a connector 54 positioned on the exterior distal end providing means for connecting to a 12-volt power source 60. The other distal end of the cord is connected to a pump 44 that is used to selectively pump the liquid from the interior of the container 22. Also positioned within the housing 22 is a hose 46 connected at one distal end to the pump 44 and at the other to a fitting having a throughbore positioned within the wall of the container housing 22. The fitting has another length of hose 26 connected thereto having a spray nozzle 24 positioned on the other distal end whereby the contents of the container can be selectively discharged through the spray nozzle when the pump 44 is energized.
Abstract:
The invention provides self-pressurizing sprayer assembly 10 with a single external bulkhead fitting 40. The invention includes hose 14 connected to bulkhead fitting 40 and T-type connector 16 connected to the other end of hose 14. T-type connector 16 couples hose 14 to hand operated discharge control valve 20 and quick-disconnect fitting 18. Alternatively, hose 114 is fitted with a female quick-disconnect connector and connects directly to discharge control valve 116 or quick-disconnect fitting 18. Quick-disconnect fitting 18 couples hose 14 or hose 114 to a source of domestic water supply, such as garden hose 89.
Abstract:
An apparatus for metering, mixing, and spraying liquids is provided. The apparatus includes a first storage chamber and a second storage chamber connected to one another via channels that permit the free flow of air between the first storage chamber and the second storage chamber so that the pressure in each of the chambers is equal. The channels are fitted with liquid flow limiting members for preventing the flow of liquid from the first storage chamber to the second storage chamber and from the second storage chamber to the first storage chamber. Liquid delivery tubes associated with each storage chamber permit liquid from the storage chamber to flow into a mixing chamber. In the mixing chamber, the two liquids combine to form a solution. The concentration of that solution is variably adjustable by means of a flow restriction member associated with the first storage chamber. There is a storage area for receiving the liquids in the storage chambers if the device is tipped onto its side or while moving the device through various angles during its operation.
Abstract:
A portable automatic misting device (20) uses a misting device assembly (38) to automatically disperse a mist (36). The misting assembly (38) includes a hollow cylinder (40) that forms a liquid reservoir (50) that is in fluid communication with a one-way valve (128) that permits liquid flow into the reservoir (50) from a liquid container (118). The reservoir (50) has fluid communication with a misting nozzle (34) through a hollow plunger rod (28). A plunger (42), a spring (48) and a portion of the plunger rod (28) are located inside the hollow cylinder (40). The spring (48) is biased to move the plunger (42) and the plunger rod (28) to automatically shrink the liquid reservoir (50). A second one-way valve (122) permits a passage of air into the liquid container (118) to equalize pressure therein.
