A wiping solution dispenser utilizes a motorized dispenser mechanism that moves a nozzle back and forth along a stroke to dispense a wide band of wiping solution onto toilet tissue. A motor may be coupled with a nozzle that moves back and forth or rotates about a pivot point to dispense a band of wiping solution. Wiping solution may be within a solution container that is configured for insertion into the dispenser housing and may be automatically ruptured by a puncture feature. A pump may force the wiping solution from the nozzle, or the solution may be gravity fed. A motion detector may be incorporated to control the actuation and dispensing of the solution. A near field communication transceiver may be used to receive payment before solution is dispensed.

An aerosol distributor for filter leakage detection in a gas filtration system, said aerosol distributor being configured to be positioned in a gas stream upstream of the filter, said aerosol distributor comprising: a rotatable distributor housing comprising a hub in fluid connection with two or more radial chambers evenly distributed around said hub, the distributor housing having an inlet for admitting a test aerosol from an aerosol source via the hub into the radial chambers, each radial chamber being elongated, sealed at a distal end, and provided with a plurality of outlet holes distributed along the length thereof for releasing the aerosol from the radial chamber into a gas stream surrounding the aerosol distributor, and wherein said aerosol distributor further comprises an actuator configured to rotate the distributor housing around a central axis thereof.

Exemplary embodiments of a mister of the current invention comprise a reservoir, a spacer, and a dispenser assembly. A spacer fixedly joins the reservoir to the dispenser assembly a set distance. A liquid stored within the reservoir is configured to exit the reservoir at the valve through the spacer and impinge the dispenser assembly.

The dispenser assembly includes a dispenser and a motor, the motor providing a rotational force for application to the dispenser. The dispenser presents an axis oriented to the liquid stream flow from the reservoir. Upon liquid stream flow impinging the rotating dispenser, the centrifugal force causes the liquid stream flow to spread radially from the dispenser to the air and/or surface in the target area, where it is dispersed outwardly over a target area, atomized or as droplets.
