20140027456 | LID FOR A CAN WITH AN IMPROVED SEAL - A lid for a paint can having a lid base which is threadably mounted to a mating ring dimensioned to overlie the can chime on the paint can. A seal constructed of a flexible and compressible material is carried by the mating ring and, upon rotation of the mating ring relative to the lid base between an open and a closed position, the mating ring compresses the sealing ring against the can chime to complete a fluid seal. | 01-30-2014 |
20130048683 | SPOUT ADAPTER SYSTEM - A spout adapter system is provided for use with at least two different containers in which each container has a threaded fitment adapted to removably receive a threaded closure cap and in which the two different containers have different thread configurations around the dispensing opening. The system includes a first and second adapter each having two ends and a fluid passageway extending between their ends as well as a dispensing spout having a fluid passageway for dispensing fluid. The spout includes a threaded connector which threadably cooperates with a threaded connector at one end of either of the adapters so that the dispensing spout may be used with either adapter. The first adapter includes a threaded portion at its other end which is configured to cooperate with the threaded fitment of one of the containers while the other adapter has a threaded portion at its other end configured to cooperate with the threaded dispensing opening of the other container. Consequently, the different adapters enable the same spout to be utilized with different containers having different sized dispensing openings. | 02-28-2013 |
20130032244 | PAINT FORMULATION AND DISPENSING APPARATUS - A paint formulation and dispensing apparatus for mixing paint from a can having an open top and to a receiving can. The apparatus includes a dispensing lid attached to the paint can so that the lid overlies the open top of the paint can. The lid includes a spout and a reservoir having a plunger slidably disposed in it such that the position of the plunger determines the volume of the reservoir. A valve is disposed in a passageway in the lid and is movable between a first position in which the valve fluidly connects the passageway to the reservoir, and a second position in which the valve fluidly connects the reservoir to the spout. A weight scale is positioned below the spout and the receiving can is positioned on the weight scale. The weight scale generates an electronic signal to a programmed processor which generates output signals to control both the position of the valve as well as the position of an actuator which engages the plunger. | 02-07-2013 |
20110168743 | PAINT CAN DISPENSER - A dispenser for a paint container having an access opening. The dispenser includes a main lid which is attachable to the paint can access opening and includes a threaded stem. A flow restrictor is threadably mounted to the threaded stem so that rotation of the flow restrictor relative to the stem axially displaces the flow restrictor along the stem. A turret is rotatably mounted to the main lid and includes a dispensing opening. The turret is mounted to the main lid so that the turret is locked against axial movement but freely rotatable relative to the main lid. The turret includes at least one axially extending slot which slidably receives an outwardly extending tab from the flow restrictor so that rotation of the turret axially displaces the flow restrictor along the stem. | 07-14-2011 |
20110168717 | CONTAINER FOR WATER-BASED PAINT - A container for water-based paint. The container includes a housing having an open top with a seal surface extending around the open top. The housing defines a chamber and includes a vent opening open to that chamber. A flexible bag is disposed in the chamber and the bag includes an open top with a seal formed around the open top. This seal abuts against the seal surface on the housing. A lid is attached to the housing so that the lid covers the open top of the housing and compresses the seal against the seal surface. A dispensing opening is formed in the lid. | 07-14-2011 |
