  • Patent number: 5899360
    Abstract: The dispenser is a rigid type multi-chamber, refillable dispenser where only the substance containing chambers need to be discarded and replaced. At the point of the chambers interconnecting into the upper portion of the dispensers there is a cutter to break the seal on the chambers. In operation stabilized piston rods fit into each chamber and push against pistons having a deformable upper surface to expel the substance. The refill chambers have off-center exit openings whereby the distance to the dispenser nozzle exit is minimized. The push rods are stabilized by being of a size and shape to be proximate the walls of the chambers while actuating the pistons.

  • Patent number: 5858153
    Abstract: In the manufacture of multichamber tubular containers it has been found that the inner divider walls should be bonded to the exterior wall by means of a band sealing method. In the band sealing method there is a band that contacts the upper film and a band that contacts the lower film that are to be bonded. In the present processes the upper band contacts the inner divider wall while the lower band contacts the exterior surface of the outer wall of the tubular container. In order to prevent the marring or otherwise putting a defect into the exterior surface of the outer wall the temperature of the lower band is maintained at a lower temperature than the upper band. This will decrease the temperature of the exterior surface of the outer wall and prevent imperfections in the exterior surface of the outer wall. The advantage is a multichamber tubular container without any imperfections in the exterior surface. This enhances the overall appearance of the tubular container.

  • Patent number: 4464907
    Abstract: In an absorption heat pump capable of bivalent operation, to make possible combined operation in addition to the pure heat pump operation and the pure boiler operation, it is proposed to divide the refrigerant stream after the condenser and the stream of weak solution leaving the boiler, with one component stream of the refrigerant being fed through the refrigerant throttle and the vaporizer to a low-pressure absorber, into which a component stream of the weak solution is introduced through the temperature changer and the solvent throttle, while the other component stream of the refrigerant is fed either directly to the boiler or to a high-pressure absorber, to which the other component stream of the weak solution is fed directly in both cases, and to feed the strong solution from the low-pressure absorber through the temperature changer and/or the reflux condenser to the boiler, but on the other hand to feed the solution from the high-pressure absorber directly to the boiler.
