20090126800 | PROTECTANT APPLICATION - A hand-held nozzle is attached to the end of a vacuum and fluid delivery hose of an upright deep cleaner. The nozzle includes a reservoir to contain a solution to be applied to a surface. When a solution delivery system of the deep cleaner is pressurized, water from the upright cleaner clean water tank is routed through the hose to the hand-held nozzle. The water is routed through a venturi valve connected to the reservoir, which draws the solution to the valve to mix with the water stream. The resultant mixture flows from the hand-held nozzle for application to a surface being treated. One embodiment of the solution reservoir includes a retainer cap bonded to the reservoir and utilizing a bayonet-type mounting arrangement for mounting the reservoir to a nozzle assembly. | 05-21-2009 |
20090176683 | EFFERVESCENT DETERGENT DISPENSER KIT AND METHOD - A kit and method for preparing a cleaning solution for delivery under pressure includes combining a cleaning composition, an oxidizing agent, an effervescent agent and an aqueous medium in a pressurizable container having an opening with a removably mounted cap. The effervescent agent reacts with the aqueous medium to generate a gas to pressurize the cleaning solution within the container. The method can be used for preparing a cleaning solution for use with a pressurizable container have an aerosol valve assembly or an extraction cleaner with a fluid delivery system for dispensing the cleaning solution under pressure to a surface to be cleaned. The cleaning solution and a pressurizable container having a removably mounted cap with an aerosol valve assembly can be provided as a kit to a consumer for preparing a pressurized cleaning solution. | 07-09-2009 |
20100154822 | Stain Treatment and Removal - A package for delivering a cleaning solution to a surface to be cleaned comprises a housing, a pocket in the housing having at least one piercing projection extending into the pocket and a passageway between the pocket and the surface to be cleaned beneath the housing. A sealed packet containing a cleaning solution can be configured to fit into the pocket and can have at least a portion of an outer surface thereof adapted to be pierced by the at least one piercing projection when the packet is placed in the pocket. The cleaning solution can be discharged from the packet when the packet is positioned in the pocket and the packet is pierced by the at least one piercing projection. The cleaning solution can then be dispensed through the passageway onto a surface to be cleaned. | 06-24-2010 |
20100264165 | MANUAL SPRAY CLEANER PACKAGE - A disinfecting solution package comprising a dispensing container having a body with a closed bottom and an open upper end forming a neck and a dispensing valve mounted in the neck. A flexible pouch is mounted within the container and has an open upper end that is sealed to the dispensing valve. A disinfecting composition containing a disinfecting agent is stored in the flexible pouch. A pressurized gas is between the container body and the flexible pouch to pressurize the disinfecting solution within the flexible pouch. | 10-21-2010 |
20110139180 | MANUAL SPRAY CLEANER AND PROTECTANTS - A manual spray cleaner for removing dirt and stains from fabrics and carpets comprising a spray bottle having two separate chambers and a single dispensing spray outlet for dispensing controlled amounts of liquids from each of the chambers. One of the chambers has a fabric/carpet cleaning composition therein and the other chamber has an oxidizing composition that enhances the cleanability of the fabric/carpet cleaning composition. The fabric/carpet cleaning composition and the oxidizing composition are simultaneously drawn from their respective chambers and mixed together at the time that they are dispensed from the spray bottle. At least one of the oxidizing composition and the fabric/carpet cleaning composition includes a fabric/carpet protectant. The two compositions are mixed before or after they are sprayed from the bottle. The two compositions can be pressurized with an aerosol propellant or drawn from their respective chambers by a mechanical pump. | 06-16-2011 |
20110215113 | MANUAL SPRAYER WITH DUAL BAG-ON-VALVE ASSEMBLY - A manual spray dispenser for dispensing a mixture of two compositions comprises a container having a first and second chamber and a single dispensing spray outlet. At least one of the chambers has a separator in the form of a pouch for physically separating the contents of the container from an interior surface of the chamber. One of the first and second chambers contains a first composition and the other contains a second composition. The dispenser further contains a dispensing system for simultaneously dispensing the first composition and the second composition, mixing the two compositions together, and dispensing a mixture of the two compositions from the container under pressure. An aerosol propellant is between the separator and the interior surface of the at least one of the first and second chambers for pressurizing the composition in the pouch for dispensing the contents thereof through the dispensing system under pressure. | 09-08-2011 |
