Beauty device, body of beauty device, and head of beauty device
A first head of a beauty device includes a stirring mechanism stirring bubbles, and a head case provided with an opening for allowing the bubbles stirred by the stirring mechanism to pass through. When the first head is used while being mounted to the body of the beauty device, bubbles are supplied to the stirring mechanism from the body of the beauty device. In a state where bubbles supplied to the stirring mechanism are present between the stirring mechanism and the skin, the bubbles are stirred and moved between the stirring mechanism and the skin by the stirring mechanism, and thus impurities of the skin are removed by the bubbles.
Pump for Under Counter Dispensing System
A piston pump with a piston chamber-forming body and a piston-forming element relatively coaxially reciprocally movable to dispense liquid and air from a discharge outlet, which the discharge outlet is fixed relative to the piston chamber-forming body.
Dispensing system with material level detector
A dispensing system comprises a first electronic sensor and a controller. The first electronic sensor may be configured to detect a first change from a first amount of a fluid product in a dispensing system reservoir to a second amount of the fluid product in the dispensing system reservoir. The controller may be coupled to the first electronic sensor and configured to receive a first signal from the first electronic sensor indicative of the first change. The dispensing system reservoir may be disposed in the dispensing system. A method for determining a remaining service interval for a dispensing system reservoir is also provided.
FOAM SOAP DISPENSER
A foam soap dispenser includes a motor, stirring unit, pump and container, where the motor is combined with and linked to the stirring unit and pump; an output tube is configured on the front end of the stirring unit; the pump has an elastic sleeve body, first and second tubes, where the second tube is in communication with the container inside which soap liquid is filled. The motor drives the stirring unit and pump to operate simultaneously after the motor is started, an elastic sleeve body of the pump is operated by the motor to contract and expand, allowing the second tube to extract the soap liquid from the container to the pump, and the soap liquid is then delivered to the stirring unit through the first tube. Finally, the rotation of the stirring gears allows the soap liquid to become foam, which is output through the output tube.
PRODUCT LEVEL DETECTION APPARATUSES AND SYSTEMS FOR FLUID DISPENSERS
A fluid dispenser, such as a skincare product dispenser, comprises a dispenser housing configured to hold a reservoir of fluid for dispensing and a drive assembly for interacting with the reservoir and causing dispensing of the fluid. A fluid detection sensor is positioned within the dispenser housing proximate the reservoir and configured to detect a capacitance level therein. A controller is configured to determine, based on data from the fluid detection sensor, a change in the fluid level across a dispense. The controller is also configured to determine, based on the determined change, that the fluid level in the reservoir reaches a threshold level and cause an action, such as providing an alert, sending information to a remote server, or modifying an operating parameter.

Mini pump with compressible air inlet chamber for providing residual suck-back
Exemplary dispensers, pumps and refill units are disclosed herein. An exemplary refill unit includes a container and a foam pump. The foam pump includes a liquid pump chamber, a compressible air inlet chamber and a compressed air inlet. The volume of the compressible air inlet chamber is less than the volume of air used to make a dose of foam. A one-way air inlet valve is located proximate the compressed air inlet. A piston is included that is movable within the liquid pump chamber and has a liquid seal member and an air seal member. The liquid pump chamber includes a liquid outlet into a center portion of the piston. One or more openings extend through the piston wall and provide a passage from the compressible air chamber to the center portion of the piston. The pump further includes mix media and an outlet.

SEQUENTIALLY ACTIVATED MULTI-DIAPHRAGM FOAM PUMPS, REFILL UNITS AND DISPENSER SYSTEMS
A sequentially activated multi-diaphragm foam pump for a foam dispenser includes a housing with a liquid pump portion and air pump portion secured to the housing. The liquid pump portion has a liquid inlet, a liquid inlet valve, a liquid pump diaphragm, a liquid outlet valve, and a liquid outlet. The air pump portion has a first and second air inlet, a first and second air inlet valve, a first and second air pump diaphragm, and a first and second air outlet. The sequentially activated multi-diaphragm foam pump also includes a mixing chamber that is in fluid communication with the liquid outlet, the first air outlet, and the second air outlet. The liquid pump diaphragm, the first air pump diaphragm, and the second air pump diaphragm operate in sequential order. The liquid pump diaphragm pumps liquid into the mixing chamber, the first air pump diaphragm pumps air into the mixing chamber to mix with the liquid to form a liquid air mixture, and the second air pump diaphragm pumps air into the mixing chamber to mix with the liquid air mixture to form a foamy mixture. The foamy mixture is dispensed through an outlet that is in fluid communication with the mixing chamber.
FOAM PRODUCING APPARATUS AND METHOD
A foam dispenser includes a dispensing outlet, a pre-mixing chamber receiving liquid from a liquid source and air from an air source, a mixing chamber downstream of the pre-mixing chamber and proximate the dispenser outlet, and a first conduit coupling the pre-mixing chamber to the mixing chamber.
