The canister can comprise a distal end, a proximal end, and an intermediate portion. The distal end can comprise an access opening and a lid configured to be opened and closed. The intermediate portion can comprise an internal chamber configured to receive the applicator via the access opening and a fluid via an opening in the proximal end of the canister. The dispenser can be configured to deliver the fluid to the internal chamber of the canister. A distal portion of the dispenser can comprise an opening. The distal portion can be configured to engage with the opening of the proximal end of the canister. A body portion of the dispenser can comprise a reservoir of the fluid.

A product dispenser holder comprises a dispenser holder body configured to receive a product dispenser that stores a supply of a product to be dispensed, an actuation sensor that senses actuations of the product dispenser, and an actuation button, such that when an actuation force is applied to a pump of the product dispenser, a substantially downward force is applied to the actuation button causing the actuation button to rotate substantially downwardly and actuate the actuation sensor to generate a dispenser actuation signal.

Methods and apparatus for assembling dispensing devices and/or for dispensing a medicament include a sealing element fixed in a receiving space of the dispensing device with a specific assembly parameter. A plurality of sealing elements is produced in batches, and all sealing elements of a batch are fixed with the same assembly parameter.

An elastic member made of a non-metal material, which is used for a pump dispenser, according to some embodiments of the present disclosure may include: an upper ring; a lower ring; and a plurality of links, which is laminated and connected in a zig-zag form to provide elastic restoration force for compression or elongation.

Dual reservoir spray dispenser, configured to separately hold two different components, while jointly dispensing them as a sprayable composition, comprising a common actuator comprising a pipe (2) having a sinuous path and comprising two inlet orifices (3, 5) and an outlet orifice (4).

VALVE CARTRIDGE FOR ACTUATORS OF A RANGE OF PACKAGING, having an independent complementary valve mechanism (1) to be mounted directly on the internal region of an outlet nozzle (2) of a known actuator (3) of a usual packaging (4), which actuator is traditionally combined with a pump-type mechanism (5) for extracting the product (P) contained in said packaging (4) and, accordingly, said packaging has a seal-tight upper closing part (6) that forms the body housing the extractor pump-type mechanism (5), the upper part of which is in communication with the outlet nozzle (2), while the lower part is in communication with the inside of the packaging (4), where it produces a vacuum, negative pressure or positive pressure, sufficient to move the product (P) to the outlet nozzle (2), containing an inlet duct (7) and an outlet duct (8), and in the latter there is mounted the independent complementary valve mechanism (1) which alters said stream of the semi-solid product (P) turning it into a drip, trickle or spray.

Exemplary table-top sanitizer dispensers and dip tube separation members are disclosed herein. An exemplary table-top sanitizer dispenser includes a container. The container has a neck that has an inside diameter. The container having an annular wall extending outward from the base of the neck. The table-top dispenser has pump that has a pump housing. The pump housing has an annular retention member at the bottom of the housing. A nozzle is secured to the pump housing. A closure is also secured to the pump housing. The table-top dispenser further includes a dip tube. The dip tube is secured to the annular retention member. A dip tube separation member extending outward from the dip tub is also included. The dip tube separation member has a biased state and an unbiased state. In the biased state the dip tube separation member has a diameter that is smaller than the inside diameter of the neck. When the separation member moves toward its unbiased state, the separation member is wider than the inside diameter of the neck. When the dip tube is connected to the annular retention member and the separation member is located inside of the container, removing the closure and the pump from the container causes the dip tube to separate from the annular retention member and the dip tube remains in the container.

A portable electronic device that selectively deploys a liquid incapacitating chemical agent is described. During operation, the portable electronic device receives or provides a trigger signal. For example, the portable electronic device may include a trigger (such as a mechanical or an electronic trigger), and the portable electronic device may provide the trigger signal when the trigger is activated. Alternatively or additionally, the portable electronic device may provide the trigger signal when an individual is detected in proximity or may receive the trigger signal via wireless communication. In response to the trigger signal, a control circuit provides a control signal to a pump. Then, based at least in part on the control signal, the pump transfers the liquid incapacitating chemical agent from a reservoir to a nozzle. Next, the nozzle discharges the liquid incapacitating chemical agent, e.g., in a stream, where the stream is external to the portable electronic device.

An exemplary tabletop foam sanitizer dispenser includes a bottle comprising a reservoir for containing liquid sanitizer. The bottle has a base for sitting on a surface. The base has a base diameter. The bottle has a top and a neck located proximate the top having an opening. The opening has an inner neck diameter. The base diameter is at least 3 times the inner neck diameter. A pump assembly is also included. The pump assembly has a cylindrical housing. The cylindrical housing having an outer housing diameter. The outer housing diameter is less than the inner neck diameter. The cylindrical housing is inserted into the bottle through the neck opening. A pump is located in the cylindrical housing. The pump includes a liquid inlet, an air inlet, a liquid outlet and an air outlet. A pump is motor located in the cylindrical housing. A battery is also located in the cylindrical housing. A nozzle housing is located above the cylindrical housing. A liquid and air mixing chamber located in the outlet nozzle housing. The liquid and air mixing chamber is in fluid communication with the liquid outlet and the air outlet. An outlet nozzle is in fluid communication with the mixing chamber and is located in a lower portion of the nozzle housing. The table top dispenser further includes a sensor for detecting a hand of a user positioned below the nozzle.

A handheld comminutor—spray bottle assembly includes a bottle; a comminutor; and a sprayer assembly. The bottle has an externally threaded mouth. The comminutor includes a comminutor body, with an internally threaded rim, housing a power source and an electrically connected motor. Blades connected to the motor by a shaft extend from the comminutor body. The sprayer assembly includes a spray head attached to a spray bottle cap, a siphon straw and an elongated filter housing connected with a spray head inlet, with a filter on the housing. A filter housing cap secures the filter to the housing. The spray bottle cap has an internally threaded rim and a seal ring. The comminutor rim and the spray bottle cap rim alternately connect with the mouth of the bottle. The motor rotates the shaft and the blades. Biomatter and liquid comminuted in the bottle are dispensed using the spray head.
