Abstract: A fluid dispenser with a fluid pump for dispensing fluid on movement of an actuator, and an air pump for delivering a stream of air through at least one sound generator on movement of the actuator. The sound generator produces at least two sounds as the actuator is moved from a first position to a second position, with each sound produced in a different time period during a cycle of operation, or differing from the other sound in respect of one or more detectable sound characteristics, such as duration, frequency, temporal alignment, amplitude, and/or timbre. The time period of each sound is a function of the relative location of the actuator between the first and second positions.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a sealing unit for sealing a container wall opening. The sealing unit comprises inner and outer housings defining a gas flow passage arranged between an outer surface of the inner housing and an inner surface of the outer housing. The inner housing is movable in axial direction between a first axial position wherein the gas flow passage is closed and gas is prevented from flowing into or out of the container and a second axial position wherein the gas flow passage is open and gas is allowed to flow in a generally axial direction into or out of the container. The sealing unit also includes a biasing element arranged between the outer and inner housings and configured to urge the movable inner housing to move to the first axial position. A liquid flow passage including a liquid seal unit is defined inside the inner housing.

Abstract: A glue gun includes a first handle and a second handle which are connected via a pivot pin shaft, and one of them is arranged as a fixed handle, and the other is arranged as a movable handle. The movable handle is provided with an actuating member configured to push a push member. A spacing between the actuating member and the pivot pin shaft is adjustable, such that the pivot pin shaft or the actuating member can switch between at least two gears and the ratio of a spacing between the pivot pin shaft and a force application point on the movable handle to a spacing between the pivot pin shaft and a force bearing point on the actuating member is changed, thus enabling a change in the force applied on the push member as well as a change in the rate of movement of a push rod.

Abstract: A fluid dispenser (1) for dispensing a cosmetic composition (2) comprises a housing (3), a dispenser head (4), at least one first receptacle (16) being connectable to a first reservoir (5) comprising a first fluid (6), and at least one second receptacle (17) being connectable or connected to a second reservoir (7), the second reservoir (7) being configured to receive a second fluid (8).

Abstract: A method of dispensing paste for a printer using a paste dispensing apparatus is provided. The paste dispensing apparatus includes a reservoir for storing a paste for a printer. The reservoir includes a stirrer for stirring the paste. The paste dispensing apparatus includes a receptacle for receiving paste from the reservoir. The paste dispensing apparatus includes a closable passage from the reservoir to the receptacle. The closable passage is changeable between an open state and a closed state. In the open state, the receptacle is fluidly coupled to the reservoir so that paste can pass from the reservoir to the receptacle. In the closed state, the receptacle is fluidly decoupled from the reservoir so that the paste is prevented from passing from the reservoir to the receptacle. The paste dispensing apparatus includes a pusher for pushing paste out of the receptacle. The method includes transferring a first volume of paste from the reservoir to the receptacle while the closable passage is in the open state.

When the control circuit determines that a temperature of the temperature-adjusted water reaches a predetermined temperature, the control circuit controls the flow direction control device to guide the temperature-adjusted water to flow toward the target nozzle through the first output terminal, so that the target nozzle dispenses the temperature-adjusted water into the target container.

Abstract: A dispensing closure (40) for a fluent substance-containing system, such as a container, includes a body (54) for receiving the fluent substance from the system, a locking member (56) assembled with the body (54), and a pivotable actuator (60) assembled with the locking member (56) and defining a dispensing flow passage (190) for discharging the fluent substance. The locking member (56) is rotatable relative to the body (54) from a locking position to an unlocking position to permit a user to pivot the actuator (60) from a closed position to a dispensing, open position. The body (54) has a pair of abutments (110) that extend through the locking member (56) in the locking position to prevent the actuator (60) from moving into the open position. In the unlocking position of the locking member (56), the actuator (60) is not prevented by the abutments (110) from moving into the open position.

Abstract: The inventive system and method advantageously enable superior preserved storage and selective dispensation of liquids by storing wine (or other liquids) in a pressurized environment to ensure that the stored liquid does not come into contact with air, and then by selectively dispensing a portion of the stored liquid, in accordance with a desired dispensing regime, by utilizing a controlled source of pressure force to apply a sufficient pressure to the pressurized environment to expel the desired volume of the liquid in a pressurized stream directed to a dispensing/pouring interface through a conduit or equivalent delivery system. In at least several novel embodiments thereof, the system and method of the present invention are configured for use with wine-in-bag (“WinB”) products.
