Abstract:
A hand-held applicator for applying a cleaning or polishing solution to a surface including a container housing for containing a cleaning or polishing solution, such as cleaning agents, protectants, waxes, soaps, detergents, etc. Moreover, in this applicator, a discharge valve assembly controls the flow of the cleaning or polishing solution from the container housing. A pump assembly is connected to the container housing which increases the pressure within the container housing so as to release a portion of the liquid product through the discharge valve assembly. The pump assembly includes a bellows-like chamber communicating with the container housing by means of an air opening slit at an end thereof extending into the container housing. A pump actuating member is provided which compresses the bellows-like chamber upon manual force applied thereto to thereby open the air opening slit to admit air into the container housing to increase the pressure thereof so as to open the discharge valve assembly and release a portion of the liquid product from the container housing onto the surface. A solution application pad applies the liquid product released through the discharge valve assembly by a cleaning or polishing action thereof upon the surface.

Abstract:
A light-emitting product (for example, a flashlight) includes a first housing includes a light source for emitting light and a lens system that is adjustable in position relative to the light source. The second housing can be attached to the first housing and includes a power source for the light source. When the first housing and the second housing are attached, the first housing and the second housing can be moved relative to each other to adjust the position of the lens system relative to the position of the light source to focus the light from the light source.
