A discharge apparatus and a discharge method for a moving vehicle are provided in which a content in an aerosol container can be stirred in a state where the aerosol container is mounted on the moving vehicle, so that the content of a constant quality can be discharged. The discharge apparatus for a moving vehicle, which is provided with an aerosol container mounted on the moving vehicle and discharges the content in the aerosol container, is characterized by including a stirring means that stirs the content by causing the aerosol container to rotate, reciprocate, swing, vibrate, or otherwise move with respect to the moving vehicle.

A wear resistant mounting post for a distributor cap in a rotary bell cup atomizer. The mounting post includes a flange separating a thin barbed end from a larger diameter central portion. The flange fits into a countersunk depression in the distributor cap to provide a flange surface which is flush with the distributor cap surface. Paint flowing radially outward across the distributor cap follows the flange surface to the central portion of the post. This design prevents the paint from undercutting the surface of the distributor cap, and ensures that any abrasive wear of the post is limited to the larger diameter central portion.

A refillable solution dispensing device includes a housing having an upper section and a lower section. An actuator exposed through the exterior of the upper section. The actuator is movably connected to an air chamber and a solution chamber. The solution chamber is in fluid communication with the solution reservoir and a discharge nozzle. The air chamber is fluidly connected to the discharge nozzle. The actuator is coupled to a mixing shaft that protrudes into the lower section. The lower section comprises an interior volume that functions as a solution reservoir. A solution cartridge and water are inserted into the solution reservoir. A solution mixer is rotatably coupled to the mixing shaft combining the solution within the solution cartridge, the solution cartridge, and the water into one solution. Upon an activation of the actuator, the solution and the air will mix and exit the discharge nozzle.

A solution dispensing device includes a housing having an upper section and a lower section that seal when coupled, and an interior volume that functions as a refillable reservoir, the interior volume reservoir accessible via an aperture, whereby a refill cartridge containing a solute solution is deposited within the interior volume reservoir via an aperture, the solute solution and refill cartridge housing dissolving within varied measure of prescribed solvent added within the interior volume of the lower section reservoir. An actuator mechanism is configured to cause the mixed concentrate solution, which includes a combination of a dissolved solute solution, a dissolved refill cartridge, and a solvent, deposited within the refillable solution reservoir, to be drawn through and held within the actuator mechanism of the device, readied to be dispensed via an external port of the device, upon activation of the mechanism of the actuator external of the device housing.

A system includes an agitation system having a container configured to store a coating material, an agitator configured to agitate the coating material, and a sensor configured to sense conditions within the container and transmit the conditions. The system also includes an agitation control system having a controller configured to turn on the agitator, and change an intensity of agitation in response to an input received from the agitation system.

The present disclosure relates to a container (1) for mixing paint comprising a paint cup (2) comprising a base portion (3) and sidewall portions (4) enclosing a receptacle volume (5), and having an opening (6) opposite to the base portion(3); a rotatable mixing element (17) disposed in the receptacle volume (5); and a coupling means (19) for operatively connecting the rotatable mixing element (17) to an actuator (30) configured to drive the rotatable mixing element (17). A paint mixing apparatus (26) comprising one or more ports (27) configured to accommodate such paint mixing container (1) and comprising an actuator (30) configured to drive the rotatable mixing element (17) and a process for mixing paint making use of such paint mixing container (1) are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to an upcycling system for recycling fragments of solid personal care products. The system includes a dispensing device and a method that allows an individual to turn personal care bar fragments into a liquid cleansing solution that can then be dispensed from the device. The dispenser has at least one suction cup and a removable hook to allow it to easily be stored within a shower. Further, the dispenser has a spout and a push-button assembly that controls the flow of liquid soap from the spout. The method allows a user to place a personal cleansing bar fragment into the device and add a warm liquid to turn the fragment into a liquid cleansing solution that can then be poured from the dispenser.

A system including an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) or aerial robotic system (ARS) to perform at least one task to an object during flight of the UAV in a movement mode configured for maneuvering near a surface of the object. A task sensor configured to sense at least one parameter of the surface. An adjustable sensor arm attachable to the UAV and supporting the task sensor to facilitate the task performed to the surface of the object by the UAV during flight of the UAV. The sensor arm being resilient to impact forces caused by direct contact of the sensor or sensor arm with the surface to bend, spring or swivel relative to a contour of the surface.
