Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments of dispensers are disclosed herein. One exemplary dispenser is a soap or sanitizer dispenser. The dispenser includes a housing. A removable and replaceable concentrate container for holding concentrated soap or sanitizer is located within the housing. A concentrate pump is in fluid communication with the concentrate container. A diluent container for holding a liquid is also located within the housing and a diluent pump for pumping the diluent is also included. The dispenser includes a mixing chamber in fluid communication with the concentrate pump and the diluent pump. The dispenser includes an outlet. When concentrated soap or sanitizer is pumped from the concentrate container, it mixes with diluent pumped from the diluent container to form a diluted mixture. The diluted mixture is dispensed at the outlet of the dispenser.
Abstract:
According to certain embodiments of the invention, a dispensing device may include a pump system having a large, angled spout allowing the downward dispensing of a product into a wash basin or other delivery area. The dispensing device may also include a bottle or container handle having an angle on an interior of the bottle or container such that a dip tube used with the pump system may be forced into a particular portion or location within the bottle or container. The dispensing device may also include a wide, ergonomic actuator which may be actuated by the palm of a hand or a thumb as a user grips a bottle or container to which a pump system is attached and to which the actuator is in communication for actuating the pump system.
Abstract:
Fluid dispensing devices having a pump system connected to a container wherein the dispensing device may be operated with one hand using either a container having a griping surface or opening or a handle integrated with an actuator to facilitate one-handed use.
Abstract:
A method of pumping liquid from a container to a destination comprises the steps of connecting a foot operable air pump in sealed air-delivery relation to the container; connecting a liquid delivery hose in sealed liquid receiving-relation to the container at the aperture such that the inlet end of the liquid delivery hose is submerged in liquid in the container, the liquid delivery hose having a hand operable valve for controlling the flow of the liquid through the liquid delivery hose; and operating the foot operable air pump by a foot, so as to pump air into the container, and operating the hand operable valve by a hand, so as to cause the liquid to flow from the container, through the liquid delivery hose, and to the destination. A related system, fitting, and adapter are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A liquid delivery system for supplying liquid from a portable container to a destination and removing vapour from the destination comprises a portable container, an elongate flexible liquid delivery hose, and an elongate flexible vapour recovery hose. The liquid delivery hose receives liquid from the portable container, and delivers the received liquid to a remote destination. The vapour recovery hose receives vapour from the remote destination, and delivers the received vapour to the substantially hollow interior of the portable container. The liquid delivery hose and the vapour recovery hose permit the movement of the liquid outlet of the liquid delivery hose to more than one selected remote destination while the container remains substantially stationary. Reduced air pressure in the portable container resulting from the removal of the liquid therefrom, causes vapour to be suctioned via the vapour recovery hose into the portable container.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a pump and container apparatus having a pump. The container apparatus has a container housing and a foot pump means for pumping liquid connected to the container housing. The container housing has a storage chamber for storing liquid and an opening through which liquid is added into the storage chamber. The foot pump means has a chamber wall defining a pump chamber with an pump chamber entrance opening and a pump chamber exit opening. The container housing has an exit opening in fluid communication with the pump chamber entrance opening to permit liquid in the storage chamber to be drawn and pumped into the pump chamber through the pump chamber entrance opening and out of the pump chamber through the pump chamber exit opening by operation of the foot pump means. There is a valve means comprising a one-way check valve mounted between the storage chamber and the pump chamber to permit operation of the foot pump means when the storage chamber is under atmospheric pressure, there being an air means to permit the drawing of air into the storage chamber as liquid is being pumped out of the storage chamber by use of the foot pump means.
Abstract:
A pump for use in combination with a drum, of varying sizes, to provide an easily fabricated and facily assembled pump from various molded components, that may be temporarily or permanently installed to the drum. The pump includes a pump cylinder, that fastens at its upper end to a cap ring that secures with the drum through its bung opening. The lower end of the pump cylinder engages with a lower cap, the lower cap connecting with the inlet tube for drawing fluids into the pump, during its usage, and the lower cap incorporates a valve, being of one-way design, that allows for passage of fluid into the pump, but prevents its discharge through the inlet tube, during functioning. A pump handle removably engages within the cap ring, can be drawn upwardly to provide for the pump stroke, and has connected to its downward end a pump rod, that has secured to its lower end the piston for the pump. The piston has a fluidic seal with the interior of the pump cylinder, and also includes a one-way valve, that allows for fluids within the lower piston chamber to bypass the valve and enter into the upper disposed pump chamber, as the pump is being cycled, to provide for cooperation between the plunger, the various gaskets associated with it and the lower cap, to cooperate and provide for drawing of fluids into the pump, and its pressure pumping therefrom, through a discharge hose, to a remote location for usage.
