  • Publication number: 20250083876
    Abstract: A tamper resistant dispensing system has a liquid product dispenser having a container body adapted to contain the liquid. The container body has an externally threaded neck that extends to an opening, and a dispenser cap that includes an actuator, an internally threaded closure, and a stem. The internally threaded closure threadedly mounts upon the externally threaded neck such that the stem extends into the container body. A tamper resistant overcap has an annular body adapted to be positioned around the internally threaded closure of the dispenser cap. The annular body has a height and a width that are great enough to substantially cover the internally threaded closure, a pair of access holes are on opposite sides of the annular body.

  • Publication number: 20240382046
    Abstract: A dispenser has a container and a mounting structure for mounting the container on a wall surface for dispensing a fluid. The container includes a block extending outwardly from a rear surface. The mounting structure has a back surface that is adapted for mounting on the wall surface, and a female receiver that is sized and shaped to receive the block into the female receiver. At least one locking post is movably mounted in the female receiver to move between a locked position wherein the at least one locking post extends outwardly into the female receiver and interlocks with at least one bore of the block, and an unlocked position wherein the at least one locking post are retracted from the locked position to that the block is released. A biasing mechanism biases the at least one locking post towards the locked position.

  • Patent number: 11952254
    Abstract: Hotel amenity fluid dispensing assemblies, systems, and methods for refilling empty reuseable jars from a source container positioned on separate scales within a housing. Each container/jar provides an RFID tag identity read by its respective scale RFID reader to provide selective operational parameters. Separate housing tower assemblies are fluidly connected to the central pumping assembly between the tower assemblies to draw product from the source container to the fill jar. Microprocessor-based control is electrically coupled to the pumping assembly, the scales, and RFID readers to turn fluid flow on and off. The control actuates the pumping assembly to dispense a precise amount of the fluid based upon the RFID identity and real time scale readings and activates tower assembly manifold movement to allow for replacement of empty source and full fill jars.
