Patent number: 8210167Abstract: The sprayer device utilizes a friction held piston that fires automatically upon full depression of the firing cap. A user may procure a monodose of medicine by (i) unlocking a child resistant mechanism; (ii) applying compressive force against the firing cap to first compress the spring and then to push the piston out of a friction area such that the spring causes the distal end of the piston to break the medicine container to drive medicine through the spray nozzle. The device includes a tear-away child resistant outer locking mechanism. Different length stops meter the amount of medicine dispensed. A two cap plug cap on the proximal and distal ends of the medicine package act as pistons.

Patent number: 8028865Abstract: A two-way dispenser cap has a main cap member and a toggle valve. The main cap member has two passages that allow material from inside an attached container to dispense. The first passage leads to a trap chamber that is defined by the main cap member and the toggle valve walls. The second passage leads to an outlet passage for continuous pouring dispensation. The toggle valve pivots in relation to the two-way dispenser cap between one of three positions: no dispensation, metered dispensation from the trap chamber passage or continuous pour dispensation. When the toggle valve pivots to open the trap chamber passage, the trap chamber inlet is closed off. When the toggle valve pivots to open the continuous pour passage, the trap chamber outlet remains closed. When the toggle valve pivots to the closed position, both the inlet passages are in fluid communication with the attached container's interior, but both outlets are closed. The main cap member has a recessed top portion.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2009Date of Patent: October 4, 2011Assignee: DeJonge Associated, Inc.Inventor: Stuart W. DeJonge
