A variety of dispensing manifolds which are removable connectable to a single deformable container having a single exit portion are disclosed. The dispensing manifolds of the present disclosure provide a single deformable container having a single exit with one or more outlets from which a fluid can be controllably dispensed. The present disclosure also provides a single force generation mechanism, a deformable container holding a fluid or substance, and dispensing mechanisms all on one machine, i.e., a carrier; a system that may also include a pressurized air source that assists a flow of a fluid; and a system that allows for a continuous flow a substance. The systems of the present disclosure provide a deformable container and a method of dispensing wherein, during dispensing, an actuation member is continuously free of contact with the fluid or substance within the container and the actuation member only contacts the exterior surface of the deformable container.

A device suitable for dispensing a liquid substance, such as an ophthalmological substance, including a container; a dispenser for dispensing the substance and which includes a piston element, loaded by the pressure of the pressurized substance so as to adopt a standby position by default that prevents the preloading chamber from being flooded by a dose of the substance; and a valve element capable of enabling a connection between the preloading chamber and the outside. The device has an actuation mechanism that sequentially compresses a volume of air used for moving the piston element from the standby position thereof, allowing a dose of the substance to flood the preloading chamber to subsequently mechanically actuate the valve element and simultaneously enable the connection to the outside of the preloading chamber as well as of the volume of air previously used for moving the piston element from the standby position thereof.

Pneumatic spray gun (10) and cartridge tip assemblies for applying sprayable materials to various surfaces are disclosed. A tube of flowable texture material to be sprayed having a cartridge tip (100) may be loaded into a pressure canister of a texture material spray gun (10). The cartridge tip (100) may include radially outwardly extending ribs (130), radially inwardly extending recesses and/or other features that engage with corresponding features of the spray nozzle assembly to reduce or prevent relative rotation between the cartridge tip (100) and the spray nozzle assembly.

A fluid sprayer includes a pump and an electrostatic module configured to provide an electrostatic charge to spray fluid. The electrostatic module is electrically connected to a conductive component of the fluid sprayer, such as a fluid displacement member, fitting, cylinder, or spray tip, to charge the spray fluid via the conductive component. The fluid is electrostatically charged prior to exiting the fluid sprayer.

Methods and systems for automatically spraying a glaze solution onto a dental prosthesis are described. The automated spray glazing system includes: a first spray gun; a controller, and a gripper configured to hold the dental prosthesis and to rotate the dental prosthesis about an axis. The controller is configured to rotate the gripper and spray a glaze solution from the first spray gun using a glazing profile based at least in part on a type of the dental prosthesis. The glazing profile is selected such that a cross-sectional thickness of a resulting-glazed material of the dental prosthesis has an average thickness range between 15 to 63 μm and a standard deviation of less than 6 μm when measured at locations in an upper half of the dental prosthesis.

A cartridge designed to dispense fluid via atomization is provided. The system generally comprises a cartridge, fluid, manifold, and air supply, wherein the air supply injects air through the manifold and into the cartridge through an air inlet of the cartridge. The air is manipulated by the cartridge in a way that creates a stream of fast-moving air above a fluid within the cartridge. This results in a zone of lower pressure above the fluid that results in the fluid to be suctioned into said stream of fast-moving air where it is atomized. The atomized fluid is then carried by the stream of fast-moving air out an atomization outlet where it is dispersed within the environment.

The present disclosure provides an atomization device, an aroma diffusion instrument, and an operation method. The atomization device includes an atomization chamber, a mixing chamber, a container, a repair cavity, a suction pump, and a gas pump; the atomization chamber is communicated with the mixing chamber through an atomization port; the suction pump is communicated with the container and the mixing chamber; the suction pump is used for pumping a substance in the container to the mixing chamber or pumping a substance in the mixing chamber back to the container; impurities in the mixing chamber can also be discharged from an opening of the repair cavity; the gas pump is connected with the mixing chamber to convey high-pressure gas to the mixing chamber; the high-pressure gas is used for atomizing liquid of the mixing chamber towards the atomization chamber; and the atomization chamber is provided with a mist outlet.

An electrostatic spray device includes an electrostatic mixing chamber and an electrode pair in the electrostatic mixing chamber. The electrostatic mixing chamber receives an airflow that is driven by a fan of the electrostatic spray device. The electrostatic mixing chamber also receives a flow of fluid from a reservoir of the electrostatic spray device. The electrode pair is configured to apply electrostatic charge to droplets of the fluid suspended in the airflow. A voltage level of the electrostatic charge is adjustable responsive to a first DC output from a first DC convertor. A flow volume of the fluid from the reservoir is adjustable responsive to a second DC output from a second DC convertor. In some cases, a control unit of the electrostatic mixing device modifies the first or second DC outputs based on a target level of the voltage level or the flow volume.
