A foam discharging device includes: a storage portion that stores a liquid agent; a foamer mechanism that changes the liquid agent into foam to generate a foam body; and a discharging portion that discharges the foam body. The discharging portion includes a foam passing chamber that allows the foam body to pass, and one or a plurality of ejection-port forming wall portions that extend downward below the foam passing chamber, are formed into a closed-loop shape in plan view, have the inner space communicating with the foam passing chamber, and have the lower edge having an ejection port formed thereon. At least part of the ejection-port forming wall portion has a bottom end portion formed into a shape that has a thickness reduced toward the lower side. The ejection-port forming wall portion and a second portion. The height position of a lower edge of the first portion is higher than the height position of a lower edge of the second portion.

A hand cleaner foam dispenser with a first pump arrangement that discharges a first liquid and first air from the atmosphere through a first foam inducing member into a mixing chamber and a second pump arrangement that discharges a second liquid into the mixing chamber, and in which there is a simultaneous discharge of the first liquid, first air and the second liquid from the mixing chamber through an outlet foam inducing member to produce a foamed product delivered onto a person's hand. Preferably, the second pump arrangement may discharge not only the second liquid, but also second air drawn from the atmosphere and discharge the second liquid and the second air through a second foam inducing member into the mixing chamber.

Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to apparatus and methods for foam generation, and to apparatus and methods for evaluation of foam systems. In an embodiment, a method of analyzing foam properties includes delivering a foaming composition and a gas to a housing at a pressure of 500 psi to 6,000 psi and a temperature of 35° C. to 150° C., the housing containing an unconsolidated porous media. The method further includes flowing the foaming composition and the gas through the housing, and forming a foam by an interaction of the foaming composition, the gas, and the unconsolidated porous media. The method further includes directing the foam from the housing to a visualization chamber, the visualization chamber in fluid communication with the housing, and measuring a foam characteristic via the visualization chamber. The characteristic may include foam half-life, pressure drop through the unconsolidated media, and/or apparent viscosity of the foam.

A wobble plate for a sequentially activated multi-diaphragm foam pump includes three or more wings, a wobble plate shaft, and an aperture located in each of the three or more wings. A first wing is configured to have a first distance from first contact surface of a first pump diaphragm. A second wing is configured to have a second distance from a first contact surface on a second pump diaphragm, and a third wing is configured to have substantially the second distance from a first contact surface on a third pump diaphragm.

A foam dispenser with a pump mechanism that mixes a liquid with air to generate foam. The pump mechanism includes a first stage pump and a second stage pump. The first stage pump delivers the liquid and a first volume of the air through a first foam generator to generate a first foam. The second stage pump delivers the first foam and a second volume of the air through a second foam generator to generate a second foam.

A discharge container comprises a discharge head including a discharge port from which bubbles are to be discharged; and a discharge head attachment attached to the discharge head, wherein the discharge head attachment includes a cylindrical portion connected to the discharge port on one side and including a first opening on another side, and a porous portion provided on the one side of the cylindrical portion, a side portion of the cylindrical portion includes a second opening, and a peripheral edge of the first opening extends at least partially along a circumferential direction of the cylindrical portion.

An apparatus that produces and dispenses foam comprises a housing, an adjustable water flow member, an adjustable foam concentrate flow member, a first mixing chamber comprising an outlet, a water pressure reducing member with a portion thereof disposed within the first mixing chamber, a second mixing chamber in a communication with the outlet from the first mixing chamber, an air pressure reducing member with a portion thereof disposed within the second mixing chamber, a third mixing chamber in a communication with an outlet from the second mixing chamber, the third mixing chamber comprising a port in a communication with an external environment to the housing, and a screen member disposed within the third mixing chamber and configured to convert a mixture of air, water and foam concentrate exiting the outlet of the second mixing chamber into the foam, the foam being dispersed through the port during operation of the apparatus.

A foam discharge container is a foam discharge container for discharging foam in response to a pushing operation, and includes a discharge port which is opened in a direction opposite to a pushing direction of the pushing operation and discharges foam, and a pushing portion that keeps the distance between a discharge target body receiving foam and the discharge port constant.

A reactor for forming fully coated particles having a solid core, the reactor comprises a reactor vessel which is configured to receive particles, and a gas phase coating mechanism that is configured to selectively introduce pulses of gas phase materials that form a coating on the particles. The reactor also includes a sieve (16) that is located within the reactor vessel, and a forcing means that is configured to force the particles through the sieve (16) in use. The sieve is configured to deagglomerate any particle aggregates formed in the reactor vessel upon forcing of the particles by the forcing means through the sieve.
