Abstract: A method of engaging a dispensing package with a dispensing system. The dispensing system includes a cradle movable from a first position to a second position. The dispensing system also includes a sliding lock that includes an open frame and a plurality of latches extending from the open frame. An inlet canula protrudes through the cradle when the cradle is in the second position. The dispensing package includes a coupling shell. The coupling shell includes a front aperture in the top wall thereof. The dispensing package is fitted to the cradle which is in the first position and pushed downwardly. The inlet canula punctures the membrane seal of the and the latch engages with the front aperture hold the dispensing package in the dispensing system.

Abstract: A dispensing system for a floor treatment composition. The dispensing system includes a housing partially enclosing a cavity and a cradle moveable within the housing along a z-axis from a first position to a second position. The dispensing system further includes a chassis and a sliding lock that includes an open frame. An inlet canula projects through the open frame. When the cradle is in the second position, the inlet canula entrance projects through the open frame and through a liquid transport aperture in the cradle. Latches extending from the open frame also project through engagement apertures in the cradle when the cradle is in the second position. The dispensing system further includes a pump in fluid communication with the inlet canula and a mop head in fluid communication with the pump.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a lidar system includes a wavelength-tunable light source configured to emit pulses of light, each emitted pulse of light having a particular wavelength of multiple different wavelengths. The lidar system also includes a scanner configured to scan the emitted pulses of light across a field of regard of the lidar system. The scanner includes (i) a beam deflector configured to angularly deflect each emitted pulse of light along a first scan axis according to the particular wavelength of the emitted pulse of light and (ii) a scan mirror configured to scan the emitted pulses of light along a second scan axis different from the first scan axis. The lidar system further includes a receiver configured to detect a received pulse of light that includes a portion of one of the emitted pulses of light scattered by a target located a distance from the lidar system.

Abstract: A volatile composition dispenser including a solid article having a volatile composition and a peripheral evaporative surface. The solid article shrinks relative to the peripheral evaporative surface from an initial size to a reduced size smaller than the initial size upon exposure of the solid article to the environment in an interior space. The solid article is characterized by a shrinkage in a direction away from the peripheral evaporative surface of greater than 1% to less than 40%. A visual indicator is located proximal to the peripheral evaporative surface of the solid article. The dispenser has a first configuration in which the visual indicator is not visually perceptible, and a second configuration in which the visual indicator is visually perceptible upon shrinkage of at least a portion of the solid article from the initial size to the reduced size for indicating a state of use of the dispenser.

Abstract: A volatile dispensing device having a housing having opposing first and second walls that are joined along their peripheries to one another. Each of the first and second walls has at least one aperture and define a cavity for receiving a solid article having a volatile composition. A dispenser mount is located at a center of one of the first wall and the second wall and extending from an exterior surface of the one of the first wall and the second wall, wherein the dispenser mount has a planar mount surface and is characterized by a height greater than a thickness of the one of the first wall and the second wall.

Abstract: A flexible solid deodorizer for releasably interlocking to a volatile composition dispenser, the solid deodorizer has a first central evaporative surface, a second central evaporative surface, and a peripheral evaporative surface. The peripheral evaporative surface circumscribes at least a part of the first and second central evaporative surfaces to define a side of the deodorizer. The deodorizer is configured for releasably interlocking to the dispenser, wherein at least a portion of the deodorizer is configured to releasably interlock with at least a portion of the dispenser to form a solid surface substantially free of an opening.

Abstract: A cleaning apparatus is described. The cleaning apparatus includes a support member and a cleaning head. The support member includes a first portion having a length, a first end, an opposing second end and a handle disposed at the first end; a second portion having a first transition at the second end of the first portion and a second transition spaced from the first transition; a first support and a second support joining the first and the second transitions; and a liquid management system disposed, at least in part, between the first and second transitions. The liquid management system comprises a reservoir receiver. The cleaning head is moveably attached to the second transition. The support member exhibits a longitudinal angle of six degrees or less with respect to a horizontal plane. The cleaning apparatus exhibits a vertical height of less than 110 mm.

Abstract: A microfluidic delivery device and method of dispensing a fluid composition from a microfluidic die are provided. The method includes generating air flow from a fan; directing a first portion of the air flow through a first air outlet in a housing; directing a second portion of the air flow through a second air outlet in the housing; jetting a fluid composition from a microfluidic die through a fluid orifice in the housing; directing the second portion of air flow adjacent to the microfluidic die and out the fluid outlet, wherein the first portion of the air flow directs the fluid composition jetted out of the fluid outlet into the air.

Abstract: A container for packaging at least one product is provided. The container comprises a front wall defining a first foot region at a lower end thereof, a rear wall, a bottom wall connected to the rear wall, and a second foot region foldably connected to the bottom wall. The front wall, the rear wall, and the bottom wall at least partially define a receptacle therebetween. The at least one product is at least partially received within the receptacle. The first foot region and the second foot region are attached to each other to form a foot that extends downwardly from the bottom wall away from the receptacle, such that upon seating the foot and the bottom wall on an external planar surface, the container is inclined obliquely to the external planar surface.
