Wrist-mounted pressurized fluid shooter
A wrist mounted toy is described wherein a pressurized canister containing a string foam compound, or other pressurizable liquid with mid to low viscosity, is attached to a vessel containing a check valve. A geared-trigger mechanism allows for the user to expel the fluid at a pressure and rate dependent on the pressure he or she places on the lever. Additionally, the actions of removing and replacing the air and fluid canisters provide the user with a more interactive experience compared to a simple load and shoot toy. Many variations can be adapted to the toy to allow for a wide range of uses. The toy allows the user to enjoy a device which resembles the Marvel character's shooter more closely and discharge the fluid to quite a distance.

REPLACEABLE BEVERAGE OUTLET AND CONDUIT FOR DISPENSER
A beverage dispenser having replaceable dispensing components allows beverage-contacting elements to be removed and replaced. A needle or other conduit arrangement may be adapted for replacement, and the needle may be adapted to be inserted through a cork or other closure of a beverage container. A dispensing outlet may also be replaceable, allowing all beverage-contacting components to be replaced. The needle or other conduit may be engagable with a dispenser body by inserting a distal end of the needle into and through an opening in the body. A dispensing outlet may secure the needle to the body in an operation that fluidly connects the dispensing outlet to the needle.
BEVERAGE DISPENSER WITH CONDUIT PURGE FEATURES
Devices and methods for dispensing beverage from a container, such as a wine bottle, using a dispensing device. The device may automatically purge at least one conduit used to deliver gas to a beverage container or to carry beverage from the beverage container in response to detecting that a dispensing operation is about to begin, or in response to detecting that a dispensing operation is complete. Visual or other displays may be provided to the user to indicate that the device is ready for use in dispensing, that a conduit is in fluid communication with the container interior and/or that the device is controlling components to dispense beverage.

NEEDLE WITH PARTICLE CONTROL FOR BEVERAGE DISPENSING
A needle for accessing a container having a closure, such as a cork of a wine bottle. The needle includes one or more lumens which may have a screen to resist passage of materials over a threshold size from a distal end of the lumen to a proximal end. The screen may help allow a cork to reseal after the needle is withdrawn from the cork, help resist blockage of an opening to the lumen (whether with cork or other material) and/or help prevent foreign matter from interfering with operation of one or more portions of the dispenser (such as cork particles preventing valve from opening or closing).

Systems and methods for producing a foamable and/or flowable material for consumption
The present disclosure describes devices, systems, and methods for the production and/or delivery of a foamable and/or flowable material for consumption, such as by direct application to a consumer, such as directly to the mouth of the consumer. A device and/or system for converting a material from a first, unfoamed state to a second, foamed state is provided, and a device and/or system for converting a material from a first, non or semi-flowable state to a second, flowable state is provided.

Continuous Spray Dispenser For Highly Corrosive And Other Low Compatibility Products
A spray dispensing device including a first chamber defined by a container, a bladder contained within the first chamber that houses a fluid composition (e.g., a bleach composition), and an actuator in fluid communication with the first chamber so as to allow dispensing of the fluid composition from the bladder when the actuator is actuated (e.g., pressed). A pressurized composition may be contained within a second chamber, which acts as a pressure control device. The pressure of the pressurized composition may be in a range of from about 7 0 psi to about 150 psi. An outlet valve may provide selective fluid communication between the pressure control device (i.e., the second chamber) and the first chamber.
