An applicator comprises a housing having a liquid input, a pump, a motor, and a power source; a trigger for providing selective control over the pump; a wand hingedly connected to the housing; and a nozzle coupled to the wand for discharging liquid from the applicator. The nozzle and the liquid input are in fluid communication via the pump and various conduits of the applicator.

A dispenser or applicator of garden liquids such as herbicides and pesticides. It is a long tube, preferably translucent, that has an applicator tip assembly at the base that dispenses a quantity of the liquid to one plant at a time in an exact spot while the user remains standing comfortably (without having to bend or stoop over). The device also has a spray nozzle so that a larger area can be sprayed, if desired. Finally, it has a top cap that has a small opening in it that allows a user to invert the device and apply the liquid to a larger area by simply moving the device around and sprinkling the liquid where desired. Because the tube is long, the user can remain standing comfortable and the liquid is dispensed at ground level. The device also comes with a small mounting bracket for securing it on a wall.

A pressure washer includes a connection for a liquid source and a main line, through which a liquid is conveyable from the connection to a discharge opening of the main line via a high-pressure pump. The main line has a suction chamber between the connection and the pump. The main line has a pressure chamber between the pump and the discharge opening. The main line has an outlet through which the liquid from the main line can flow into the return line. The start valve closes so that no liquid can flow through the return line from the pressure chamber into the suction chamber if a volume flow through the start valve corresponds at least to a starting volume threshold value. The start valve has a seat arranged at the outlet opening and configured to be closed by a movement of the valve member in the flow direction.

Dispensing systems (100) having wands (110) for distributing a spray away from a user include moveable wands (110), wands for locking actuation of the dispensing system (210), wands and dispensers providing gravity fed dispensing solutions (410) for battery-operated devices (500) and improved dispensers.

Connectors and methods for contactless transfer of fluid between containers are disclosed. According to an aspect, a connector includes a body that defines a first end, a second end, and a passageway that extends between the first end and the second end, wherein the first end and second end are configured to attach to a first container and a second container, respectively. The passageway provides a pathway between the first and second containers when the first and second containers are attached to the first and second ends, respectively. Further, the connector includes an opener configured to engage and open the first container for release of a fluid from within the first container through the passageway and into the second container when the first and second containers are attached to the first and second ends, respectively.

An adapter allows direct connection of a handheld spray device to paint cans of varying dimensions. The adapter includes a cage for holding the paint can, a cap that connects the cage to the handheld spray device, and a gasket that seals the open upper end of the paint can to the cap. The adapter may also include a suction tube extension that is connectable between the pump inlet and the suction tube of the spray device. A can spacer insert is positionable in the cage to elevate paint cans of varying heights so that the upper ring of the paint can engages the gasket.

The present invention is applicable to the fields of spraying and chemical agent instruments, and provides a diaphragm pump sprayer comprising a housing in which a battery, a motor and a hose are arranged, with one end of the hose being connected with a sinking water inlet ball and the other end being connected with a spray head, characterized in that: a diaphragm pump for water pumping is also arranged within the housing, one end of the diaphragm pump is connected with the hose and the other end is connected with the spray head, and the diaphragm pump is driven for water pumping by the battery and the motor. The diaphragm pump sprayer provided in the present invention realizes the purpose of pumping and spraying liquid by the diaphragm pump sprayer. The diaphragm pump, which has high chemical corrosion resistance and high working efficiency, is employed as a substitute for existing gear pumps, piston pumps and peristaltic pumps in the present invention.

The present disclosure, in one embodiment, relates to a dispenser including a dispense assembly having a head assembly, and also including a collapsible liner that contains a material to be dispensed, the liner detachably secured to the dispense assembly with the head assembly in fluid communication with the liner, wherein the material in the liner is dispensed out the liner and through the head assembly.

A solar powered spraying assembly for spraying a rodent repellent over an area includes a spraying unit that may contain a fluid. Thus, the spraying unit may spray the fluid over a selected area. A support is provided and the support may engage a support surface. The spraying unit is removably coupled to the support. Thus, the support may support the spraying unit above the support surface.
