A dispensing closure (10) for dispensing a flowable product (12) from a squeeze-type product container (14) includes a closure body (16) having an upper deck (32), an exit orifice (34), a flow conduit (36) providing a flow path to the exit orifice, and a skirt (40) configured to attach to the product container. A measuring reservoir (26) is received in engagement with a lower surface of the upper deck. The measuring reservoir is filled with a measured dose of flowable product through flow ports (54) when the container is inverted. A piston valve (28) is slidably movable within the measuring reservoir between an open position and a closed position. The piston valve is movable from the open position to the closed position to dispense the measured dose of product responsive to pressure within the container induced by squeezing.

To implement a complex math function, i.e. a math function with multiple input variables, a configurable computing array comprises at least an array of configurable computing elements. Each configurable computing element comprises at least a memory which stores a look-up table (LUT) for a math function with a single input variable.

To implement a math function with multiple input variables, a configurable computing array comprises at least an array of configurable interconnects, an array of configurable logic elements, and an array of configurable computing elements. Each configurable computing element comprises at least a memory for storing a look-up table (LUT) for a math function with a single input variable.

The present invention discloses a configurable computing array comprising three-dimensional writable memory (3D-W). It is a monolithic integrated circuit comprising an array of configurable computing elements, an array of configurable logic elements and an array of configurable interconnects. Each configurable computing element comprises at least a 3D-W array, which stores at least a portion of a look-up table (LUT) for a math function.

Trigger sprayer 100 comprises main body portion 1 having flow path 11, cylinder portion 13 formed in the flow path, and nozzle opening portion 12 located at a tip of the flow path; trigger portion 2 supported by support shaft portions 20 provided on both sides of the main body portion; piston portion 3 connected to the trigger portion; and spring portion 4 forcing the trigger portion forward. The piston portion slides along an inner wall of the cylinder portion based on the forward and rearward rotation of the trigger portion. Support hole portion 21 formed in the trigger portion to be attached to the support shaft portion has circular shape in side view. A cross section of the support shaft portion perpendicular to the axial direction is defected-circular shape, and a space is formed between a peripheral edge of the support hole portion and the support shaft portion.

An accumulator sprayer X comprises a cylinder body portion B having a main cylinder portion B1 and a sub-cylinder portion B2, and a cover portion C attached to cover the cylinder body portion B. The accumulator sprayer is attached to a container J to suck up liquid in container J to the main cylinder portion via a first valve FV, apply pressure to the liquid in the main cylinder portion, and spray the liquid from a nozzle portion F via a valve structure A when the pressure exceeds a certain pressure, and the valve structure is mounted between a lower support portion B23 of the sub-cylinder portion and an upper support portion C1 of the cover portion, and a length L1 of the valve structure in unloaded state and a shortest distance L2 between the lower support portion and the upper support portion satisfy the relational expression L1<L2.
