  • Patent number: 8662329
    Abstract: Bottles with improved top loading resistance are disclosed herein. The bottles may have generally “square” body profiles and may include structural features such as variable wall thickness, specific shoulder angles, and other structural reinforcement components. The bottles may include laterally extending ribs on the barrel to improve their lateral stacking strength, and may do so without adversely affecting their top loading strength. The bottles may have one or both of the following characteristics: a weight and barrel thickness specific top loading strength of no less than 2.30 lbf/g×mm and a weight and volume specific top loading strength of no less than 1.00 lbf×L/g.

  • Patent number: 8550378
    Abstract: An automated sprayer for spraying the walls of a shower enclosure with a liquid cleanser dispenses the cleanser using a pumping system and rotatable spray head. The sprayer has a showerhead mountable housing with an adjustable hanger. There is a portion of the housing for supporting a bottle of cleanser in an inverted fashion. The bottle is vented through a piercing post. A single motor both drives the pump and rotates the spray head.

  • Patent number: 8403183
    Abstract: A device for that places a fluid container in fluid communication with a sprayer is disclosed. The device includes a container adapter that allows a dip tube to be attached to the fluid container rather than the sprayer. When the sprayer is removed from the fluid container, the dip tube stays in the fluid container. Refill fluid containers may come with the container adapter and dip tube installed. When the sprayer is attached to the fluid container, the adapter seals against the sprayer allowing fluid to be pumped from the fluid container by the sprayer. A sprayer connector with geometry that matches an inner or outer shape of the adapter is attached to and/or built into the sprayer. The sprayer connector is constructed to allow easy alignment of the sprayer to the fluid container. The sprayer connector and the container adapter also provide a unique attachment geometry to insure only containers with formulae compatible to the sprayer are pumped through the sprayer.
