Abstract:
An indexing nozzle assembly for a trigger sprayer has a manually rotatable cap mounted for rotation on a base of the nozzle assembly. Rotation of the cap relative to the base changes the nozzle assembly between an off condition where the nozzle assembly prevents liquid discharge from the trigger sprayer, and a combination of a spray condition, a stream condition, and/or a foam condition. The indexing nozzle assembly is provided with a child resistant feature in the form of a lock mechanism that prevents rotation of the nozzle cap relative to the nozzle base from the cap off condition position. The lock mechanism can be manually manipulated with one hand to disengage the lock mechanism, thereby permitting rotation of the nozzle cap from its off condition position relative to the base.
Abstract:
Liquid dispensing devices provided with tilting or bending pickup tubes for allowing substantially complete evacuation of the contents of the supply bottles. In preferred embodiments, the pickup tube is connected to a dispensing unit such as a sprayhead by a variety of different types of flexible connectors to allow tilting of the pickup tube. In other preferred embodiments, a semi-flexible pickup tube is weighted to cause bending of the tube with or without the addition of a flexible connector between the pickup tube and sprayhead.
Abstract:
The present invention is generally a flexible tubing to use in such devices as spray bottles, toxic containers, pick up tubes used in medical applications, and in containers in fast food restaurants so that any fluid in the bottom of the container could be immediately and virtually completely removed. The tubing is shaped to conform generally to the bottom of the container, generally in a partial elliptical configuration in a horizontal plane. The tubing or pick up device comprises two parts, normally integrally joined, or fabricated as one piece. More specifically, the upper section of the pick up device is generally vertical, while the lower section is generally in an elliptical configuration. Multiple embodiments exist, including using materials such as rubber, plastic, or metal.
Abstract:
A spray head for delivering a hair care composition onto and/or into the hair comprising an inlet in fluid communication with an outlet, the inlet of the spray head being adapted for connection with an outlet of a container including a hair care composition, the outlet of the spray head including at least one hollow protrusion defining a fluid channel extending from the spray head, the hollow protrusion including an opening for delivering the atomized hair care composition onto the hair.
Abstract:
A device (50) for moistening fluid-absorbing media for body-hygiene or care, such as toilet paper, cotton balls, cleaning tissues, cotton pads, fleeces and similar, with a system reservoir (5), in which the fluid for moistening is stored, and a stroke valve unit (5a) attached to the system reservoir (5), which upon engagement gives off liquid or a liquid mist by way of it's nozzle (20), distinguishes itself, that on the valve unit (5a), a detachable distribution unit (2) is attached to its stroke movement, which includes a distribution plate (2b) with a capillary unit (3) on it, or a funnel unit with a capillary unit (3) on it, in the bottom of the distribution plate (2b)/funnel unit there is a recess (14) in which the nozzle (20) of the valve unit (5a) is positioned, the media to be moistened can be placed on the capillary unit (3) to initiate the stroke movement, whereby the capillary unit (3) is so designed and dimensioned so that the liquid/liquid mist released through the stroke movement will be at least partially taken up through the capillary effect and this liquid/liquid mist passed on to the fluid-absorbing media via the nullblotting-papernull principle.
Abstract:
Container structure on which an atomizer can be more conveniently and sealedly installed, including: a container having an opening and at least two first engaging sections formed on outer circumference of the opening; an atomizer seat disposed on the opening of the container and having a first receiving space at lower end thereof, the first receiving space having an opening facing downward, at least two second engaging sections being formed on inner wall of the first receiving space for engaging with the corresponding first engaging sections, a hollow post downward extending from the top of the first receiving space to the open end, a second annular receiving space with a certain depth being defined between the outer circumference of the hollow post and the inner wall of the first receiving space, the opening of the container being tightly inserted in the second receiving space; and an atomizer assembly disposed on the atomizer seat and including a movable valve communicating with the interior of the container through a predetermined passage.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a new atomizer for nasal or oral application of a medicinal-pharmaceutical aerosol, wherein the active ingredient formulation is always kept under sterile conditions. It is preferred that moisturizers, medicaments and/or wound healing agents are sprayed from the atomizer into the nose or the mouth.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a very high solid content contact adhesive (VHS) which has a higher solid content than previously thought attainable in the prior art without increasing the viscosity beyond operable levels. Additionally, the present invention provides a VHS application device which allows substantially more uniform application of the VHS than was previously attainable.
Abstract:
A fluid dispensing device is provided in the form of a spray container. The spray container is formed with a protruding sump region formed along the bottom of the container. The thickness of the bottom of the container is tapered such that the lowest point in the upright container is in the distal end of the protruding sump region. The container further includes a rotating trigger spray head mounted on the container top and a rigid suction tube extending from the container top into the protruding sump region.
Abstract:
A nozzle assembly for a handheld and hand operated liquid trigger sprayer includes a nozzle housing and a flow control member contained in the nozzle housing. The nozzle housing has an oblong liquid discharge orifice and a plurality of liquid breakup channels that radiate outwardly from the orifice. The flow control member has a head with a conical surface that engages over the liquid breakup channels and together they break up a flow of viscous liquid into separate liquid streams that impact with each other at the entrance to the discharge orifice and the liquid is discharged from the nozzle orifice in a narrow, fan spray pattern of the viscous liquid.
