The present disclosure provides on-demand agent dispensing patches, kits and related methods. A flexible patch is configured to provide on-demand dispensing of the agent via compression of the patch. The patch comprises: an adhesive layer to removably couple the patch to a surface; at least one reservoir layer overlying the adhesive layer configured to absorb and retain the agent therein; at least one dispenser layer overlying the at least one reservoir layer comprising a plurality of solid portions and an array of a plurality of openings configured to inhibit evaporation of the agent and control a flow of the agent therefrom upon the compression of the patch; and at least one backer layer between the adhesive layer and the at least one reservoir layer being substantially impervious to the agent. The at least one reservoir layer may be void of the agent, which may be provided in a container.

Systems, methods, and a sunscreen container are disclosed. A sunscreen container includes a reservoir for holding a volume of sunscreen and a hand pump in fluid connection with the reservoir. The sunscreen container further includes a moving portion of the hand pump comprising outward facing numerical markings that indicate a volume of sunscreen that is pumped based on a movement of the hand pump.

An exemplary dispensing system includes a dispenser, an actuator, a sensor, and a controller. The dispenser includes a container for holding liquid, a liquid pump, an air pump, an outlet nozzle, and a foaming media. The actuator causes the dispenser to dispense liquid or foam. The sensor generates an input signal indicative of a status of the container. The controller receives the input signal, generates at least one output signal, and prevents the dispenser from dispensing liquid or foam if a breach is detected in the container.

A wearable fluid-dispensing apparatus includes a frame including a bottom wall, an upper wall, and a pair of lateral walls defining a receptacle, a cartridge removably attached to the frame within the receptacle of the frame, the cartridge having an interior reservoir, a fluid extraction port, and a fluid transfer conduit disposed within the interior reservoir of the cartridge. A housing located above the upper wall of the frame including an electric pump assembly in communication with the fluid transfer conduit of the cartridge. The electric pump assembly includes a rotatable nozzle disposed above a top end of the housing.

A fluid dispenser includes a housing, a pump, an outlet nozzle, a reservoir, a liquid passage, an air passage, and a refill container. The pump and reservoir are attached to the housing, and both the outlet nozzle and the reservoir are in fluid communication with the pump. The reservoir has at least one engagement member, and the liquid passage and the air passage are located in the engagement member. The refill container has at least one sealing member, and the refill container is configured to be releasably attached to the reservoir such that the refill container is in fluid communication with the reservoir. When the refill container is attached to the reservoir, the engagement member engages the sealing member to cause the liquid passage and the air passage to be in fluid communication with the refill container.

A modular fluid dispensing system includes a rigid bottle and multiple swappable base units. The modular fluid dispensing system includes a bottle housing to house a rigid bottle, a dispenser to dispense the fluid, and an attachment mechanism to reversibly affix the modular fluid dispensing system to a support structure. The bottle housing includes a threaded fastener to form a seal with the rigid bottle and a puncturing taper to puncture a seal of the rigid bottle. The dispenser includes a pump to initiate flow of the fluid from the rigid bottle and out a nozzle in response to a command signal from a sensor. The dispenser also includes a vacuum break port to allow an external fluid to replace the fluid in the bottle and prevent formation of a vacuum.

The invention relates to a device 1 for disinfecting hands, wherein an outlet for the disinfection liquid 10 is provided in a local external region of a vehicle 20.

In order to provide a vehicle driver of additional occupants the opportunity to disinfect their hands before entering or sitting down in the vehicle, the invention provides that the disinfection liquid 10 exists from a reservoir 2 via at least one outlet opening or spray nozzle 27, which is secured externally on a vehicle 20, when a sensor 12, 23, 28 is triggered. The claimed device makes it possible for a disinfection liquid to exit from a reservoir via an outlet opening or spray nozzle, which is secured externally on a vehicle, when a sensor is triggered, so that the vehicle driver can disinfect their hands from outside. Of course, the same applies to larger vehicles, such as buses or other public means of transport, so that all passengers can disinfect their hands before starting their journey, or, optionally, after their journey has ended.

A container includes a container main body that is composed of a main-body forming sheet member and surrounds a containing portion, wherein the container main body includes a first surface portion, a second surface portion that is arranged so as to face the first surface portion with the containing portion being arranged therebetween, and a gusset portion which connects the first surface portion and the second surface portion to each other. The gusset portion is provided with a discharge port that discharges a contents from the containing portion. The main-body forming sheet member includes a main-body sealing portion in which a plurality of film layers are attached to each other, a non-attached region in which the plurality of film layers are partially non-attached to each other, and a filling portion in which a filler can be enclosed between layers of the plurality of film layers in the non-attached region.

A dispenser includes a dispenser body that has an interior cavity in which a first chassis is configured to be translated relative to a second chassis along a central axis. The dispenser has a cartridge including a container and a pump that includes a drive flange defining a drive diameter. The dispenser includes an adaptor having a pair of legs that are configured to be coupled to the drive flange and the first chassis, and the adaptor and the drive flange are configured to prevent the drive flange from being translated independently of each other.
