Abstract: A pump spray dispenser is provided with a squeezable container normally biased to an expanded condition and defining a gas discharge opening. A housing is connected to the container. In one embodiment of the dispenser, a mixing chamber is defined in a housing and communicates with the container. A cartridge holder is defined by the housing for receiving a cartridge that contains a fluid product and that has an openable seal. A fluid product transfer passage establishes communication between the mixing chamber and cartridge when the seal is opened. A spray dispensing orifice is defined in the housing for discharging a spray mixture of the fluid product and gas from the mixing chamber.

Abstract: A spray gun for spraying of liquids utilizing compressed air includes a molded casing which contains within a sealed pressurized portion thereof, an electric motor and an air compressor driven by it. A manual trigger sequentially controls an electric switch for the motor and a needle valve for the discharge nozzle such that the motor and compressor are started before liquid is admitted to the nozzle, and are operated after liquid flow to the nozzle has been terminated. A diaphragm-type inlet check valve communicates with a pressure chamber of variable size forming a part of the air compressor, a second diaphragm providing both the movable wall of the pressure chamber as well as the movable element of an outlet check valve built therein which conducts pressurized air into the pressurized portion of the casing, passing across the motor enroute to the nozzle.

Abstract: A two-piece flexible bulb is clamped on the open upper end of a container by a ferrule which seals against the upper section of the bulb. A dispenser head mounted on a pressure pad on the upper bulb section includes a bayonet valve stem which engages a flap-type outlet valve formed on the upper bulb section. Depressing the head sufficiently distorts the bulb which creates pressure in the chamber, and also compresses the pressure pad which permits the valve stem to open the outlet valve. Depressing the upper bulb section breaks the seal between the bulb and the ferrule, thus, allowing air into the container to replace the product which is sucked into the chamber through a flap-type check valve in the lower bulb section, after the dispenser head is released. In alternate arrangements, the flap valves are replaced by flexible valve openings which cooperate with valve stems to open the valves when the bulbs are distorted by depressing the dispenser heads.
