  • Publication number: 20240049923
    Abstract: An adaptor assembly for use in a dispenser for a replaceable fluid container comprising a fluid pump. The adapter assembly is used in the dispenser to allow using a fluid container having a pump being actuated by laterally compressing it. The adaptor assembly comprises a fluid container support for supporting the fluid container in a desired position in the dispenser and actuation parts having actuation heads being movable between non-actuated and actuated positions. The actuation heads have contact surfaces for abutting dolly surfaces and the pump. The contact surfaces abut against the dolly surfaces in the non-actuated and actuated positions. A moving part is displaceable between a lower and upper position. A horizontal plane through the actuation heads in their fully actuated positions intersects portions of the dolly surfaces that are in contact with the contact surfaces. A fluid dispensing system and a dispenser are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20240033755
    Abstract: Disclosed is a pump assembly having slidingly engaged upper and lower sleeves, and a pump having an inlet and outlet ends and a pump chamber therebetween. Movement of the lower sleeve towards the upper sleeve causes the pump chamber to reduce in volume. The outlet end of the pump has a shoulder between a first diameter portion and an outlet nozzle extending downwardly from the shoulder and having a second diameter smaller than the first diameter portion. The lower end of the lower sleeve includes a shield extending from a lowermost rim upwards and inwards to terminate at an orifice that is larger than the second diameter but smaller than the first diameter portion. The shoulder supporting against a lip of the orifice and the outlet nozzle extending through the orifice to terminate at a dispersion location within the shield at a distance L from the orifice.

  • Publication number: 20230210316
    Abstract: An adaptor assembly for use in a dispenser for a replaceable fluid container comprising a fluid reservoir and a fluid pump. The adapter assembly is used in conjunction with the dispenser to allow a use of a fluid container having a pump being actuated by laterally compressing it. The adaptor assembly comprises an actuation part being movable, when mounted in the dispenser, and comprises a first contact surface for abutting against the user actuator and a second contact surface for abutting against the pump. The adaptor assembly also comprises a first connecting support for removably connecting the actuation part to the dispenser and/or the fluid container mounted in the compartment. A fixed dolly is configured to abut against the pump, wherein the pump is able to be configured between the second contact surface of the actuation part. A fluid dispensing system and a dispenser including the adaptor assembly is also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20150298420
    Abstract: A method for embossing and laminating a multi-ply tissue paper product, wherein first and second webs each including at least one ply of tissue paper are separately embossed with a background embossing pattern by first and second embossing rolls in a first embossing station and the first and second webs are subsequently laminated in a tip-to-tip relationship to form a laminated multi-ply web. The laminated first and second webs are then embossed with a decorative embossing pattern by a third embossing roll in a second embossing station from only one side of the laminated web against a smooth backing roll. A multi-ply tissue product produced by the method and wherein the thickness of the multi-ply web will be substantially the same in areas that are embossed with the decorative embossing pattern as in areas that are embossed only with the background embossing pattern.
