An authentication reader and a dispenser comprising the authentication reader for authenticating a product having a taggant ink disposed on the product's surface.

A fluid dispensing gun for 1K-polyurethane foam includes a dispensing tube with a dosing nozzle at its outlet, a spring-loaded needle co-axially moveable in the dispensing tube for opening and closing the dosing nozzle, a trigger actuating the needle to open the nozzle and to dispense the fluid, a regulator regulating the degree of opening of the nozzle outlet and a coupler coupling a pressurized can to the gun. It also concerns a method for dispensing 1K-polyurethane foam. The fluid dispensing gun includes a delivery device delivering a curing fluid essentially parallel to the nozzle outlet that includes a curing fluid reservoir, a curing fluid outlet situated near the nozzle and a curing fluid line connecting the curing fluid reservoir and the curing fluid outlet, the trigger activating the delivery device. The curing fluid delivered in the same direction as the 1K-polyurethane foam and separately therefrom makes the foam cure more rapidly.

A method of cleaning a surface is provided. The method includes providing a cleaning head, a housing, a pump, the pump having a port, the cleaning head having a nozzle, the cleaning head and housing being connected to one another. A cleaning element is attached with a first opening to the cleaning head so that the nozzle and the first opening are aligned. A refillable rigid container is provided having a cleaning fluid in the refillable rigid container. The port and the refillable rigid container are connected to form an air and fluid tight connection between the port and the container. The cleaning element is placed on a surface to be cleaned. The cleaning fluid is pumped from the refillable rigid container through the nozzle and the first opening onto the surface to be cleaned.

A dual chamber backpack sprayer system includes first, second and third tanks, and a pump unit. The first tank includes a first tank housing defining an open internal volume configured to hold a diluent therein. The second tank is dimensioned to be received within the internal volume of the first tank and is configured to hold a pressurized fluid therein. The third tank includes a third tank housing configured to hold a liquid concentrate therein. The pump unit is fluidly coupled to the first tank, the second tank and the third tank. The pump unit is configured to receive the diluent from the first tank and the liquid concentrate from the third tank to produce a mixed fluid. The mixed fluid is delivered to the second tank as the pressurized fluid.

A liquid storage and delivery apparatus comprising a combination of liquid reservoir, valves, a quick release connector, a liquid pump, a pump power switch, a pressure sensor, and associated hardware. This liquid from this apparatus can be discharged by electric pumping alone, high internal gas pressure alone, or by electric pump augmented by high internal gas pressure.

The disclosure relates to an extended-range spray applicator, and methods of making and use thereof, for dosing vaccines and/or probiotics to avian animals at a distance.

A wearable fluid-dispensing apparatus that includes a flexible wristband coupled to and surrounding a wrist-arm area of a user, with the wristband having a frame disposed along an outer surface of the wearable wristband and at a ventral side of the user's wrist, an enclosed cartridge coupled to the frame for housing a fluid therein, and a fluid transfer conduit disposed within the enclosed cartridge for transporting the fluid from the enclosed cartridge to a nozzle port on a finger-activatable pump assembly coupled to the frame. The pump assembly defines a nozzle port disposed above a top end of the wristband and angled toward the user's palm, defining a fluid extraction passageway fluidly coupled to the nozzle port and the fluid transfer conduit, and operably configured to translate downwardly toward the fluid extraction passageway fluidly to generate a vacuum therein and emit the fluid on the user's inner hand.
