| 20100089950 | Attachment mechanism for a dispenser - An attachment mechanism for a container includes a bracket and a connector. The bracket has upper and lower portions. An annular wall is disposed between the upper and lower portions. A plurality of projections extend from the lower portion. The projections are adapted to releasably engage an upper portion of a container. A tab extends radially inwardly from the upper portion. The connector has a prong, wherein a distal portion of the prong is spaced circumferentially from the connector. The prong is adapted to be secured within a slot defined between the tab and the annular wall. | 04-15-2010 |
| 20100155425 | Anti-Unscrewing System Between a Dispenser Head and a Container - A connection system between a dispenser head of a liquid and a container of a liquid includes a base area of a structure and a flange screwed tight onto the neck of the container. Free rotation of the structure is prevented by a resistant torque, but the base area of the structure is made in such a way as to allow the accidental rotation of the head without unscrewing the flange. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20130048676 | CONTAINER WITH DISPENSER-SUPPORTING COLLAR - A container includes a bottle and a bottle closure. The bottle closure is configured to close a mouth opening into an interior region in the bottle. Glue is used to retain a portion of the bottle closure in a fixed position on the bottle. | 02-28-2013 |
| 20140054320 | OFF-AXIS INVERTED DISPENSERS AND REFILL UNITS - Exemplary embodiments of inverted dispenser systems and refill units are disclosed herein. An exemplary dispenser includes a dispenser housing and an actuating lever. A rack is engaged by the actuating lever. An actuator carriage is included that is movable back and forth in a linear motion. The rack is linked to the actuating carriage and the rack is movable back and forth in a linear motion. Movement of the rack toward the back of the dispenser causes the actuator carriage to move toward the front of the dispenser. | 02-27-2014 |
| 20140103070 | SNAP-FIT CLOSURE SYSTEM - A container for pourable washing and cleaning agents, comprising: a threadless circular container opening onto whose outwardly directed distal end is shaped a cylindrical holding ring whose outside diameter is larger than the outside diameter of the container opening, so that the container opening is set back inward with respect to the holding ring toward the center axis of the container opening; a substantially cylindrical pouring aid that comprises at least at one distal end a catch spring element, the catch spring element and the holding ring being configured in such a way that by snapping the pouring aid onto the holding ring, a liquid-tight connection that is nonreleasable for a user is constituted, and that comprises at its other distal end means for releasable connection of the pouring aid to a closure cap. | 04-17-2014 |
| 20140124538 | FLUID DISPENSER - A fluid dispenser including a casing having a mounting mechanism ( | 05-08-2014 |
| 20150053720 | DISPENSER HAVING TOP LOADING AND UNLOADING REFILL UNITS - Exemplary embodiments of top loading and unloading dispensers are disclosed herein. One embodiment, includes a housing having a guide plate located in the housing. The guide plate includes two or more guide members, the two or more guide members have a first portion and a second portion. The first portions of the two or more guide members are closer together then the second portions of the two or more guide members. The dispenser also includes an actuator carriage and a pair of engagement blades carried by the actuator carriage. Each engagement blade has a first end that engages with one of the two or more guide members. The engagement members having opposing recesses for engaging the nozzle of a pump of a refill unit. When the pair of engagement blades move along the second portion of the two or more guide members, the size of the recess expands. | 02-26-2015 |
| 20150360929 | FLUID STORAGE AND DISPENSING SYSTEMS AND PROCESSES - Fluid storage and dispensing systems and processes involving various structures methods for fluid storage and dispensing, including, pre-connect verification couplings that are usefully employed with fluid storage and dispensing packages to ensure proper coupling and avoid fluid contamination issues, empty detect systems (e.g., monitoring pressure of dispensed liquid medium to detect pressure droop conditions) useable with fluid storage and dispensing packages incorporating liners that are pressure-compressed in the fluid dispensing operation, ergonomically enhanced structures for facilitating removal of a dispense connector from a capped vessel, cap integrity assurance systems for preventing misuse of vessel caps, and keycoding systems for ensuring coupling of proper dispense assemblies and vessels. Fluid storage and dispensing systems achieve zero or near-zero headspace character, and prevent or ameliorate solubilization effects in liquid dispensing from liners in overpack vessels. | 12-17-2015 |
| 20160040455 | POINT-OF-CARE HAND HYGIENE DISPENSER HAVING SECURITY FEATURES - Various embodiments of a point-of-care hygiene dispenser and an electronic hand hygiene event monitoring system are disclosed. One embodiment is directed to point-of-care dispenser and a corresponding electronic monitoring system, wherein the point-of-care dispenser is movable between predetermined zones of interest. Another embodiment is directed to a secure point-of-care dispenser having corresponding dispenser cover and main body interlocks. A still further embodiment is directed to point-of-care dispensing system comprising a point-of-care dispenser having a dispenser cover and a main body, a locking mechanism configured to secure the dispenser covers with the main body in a closed condition, and a docking unit configured for mounting with the point-of-care dispenser. | 02-11-2016 |

| 20150090736 | AEROSOL SPOUT DISPENSER - An aerosol spout dispenser is disclosed for dispensing an aerosol product from an aerosol container through an aerosol valve. The aerosol spout dispenser comprises a base secured to the aerosol container with a dispensing head mounted to the base. A dispensing spout extends outwardly from the dispensing head beyond the mounting cup of the aerosol container. A depression of the dispensing head actuates the aerosol valve to dispense the aerosol product from a terminal orifice. A dispensing head retainer cooperates with a base retainer for inhibiting separation of the dispensing head from the base when a separating force is applied between the dispensing head and the base. An auxiliary latching mechanism inhibits separation of the dispensing head from the base when a separating force is applied between the dispensing spout and the base. | 04-02-2015 |
