Abstract: A product dispensing system includes an overcap that has a locking element extending therefrom. A container has a product disposed therein. A bracket is attached to the container. The bracket includes at least one flange and at least one slot. The at least one flange extends toward the at least one slot. A resilient member is disposed within the locking element.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are wearable devices for dispensing insect repellents, fragrances, and/or other chemicals along the outside of the clothing of a human, to avoid the need to apply such chemicals directly to clothing or to human's skin. The devices have an on/off switch that automatically controls a shutter which enables and restricts air flow, while also controlling fan operation and covering of a use-up cue. The device also is designed to prevent fan operation when an impregnated slab is not present. Also disclosed are preferred refills for use with such devices.

Abstract: A useful life indicator is provided to display an indication of the remaining useful life of an associated product such as an impregnated substrate of an air treatment chemical dispenser. The cue is preferably a well having a volatile indicator material positioned therein. The well's cavity is configured to achieve clumping of the remaining indicator material as some volatizes due to capillary attraction. This presents a shrinking display that can be coordinated with the level of use of the air treatment chemical dispenser. The cue may also be used in connection with monitoring other products such as perishable products.

Abstract: Wearable devices for dispensing insect repellents, fragrances, and/or other chemicals along the outside of the clothing of a human are disclosed. They are of the type that are clipped onto a belt or the like, and use a powered fan to dispense active. They are configured with fan rotor arrangements to minimize power use while still achieving acceptable air flow rates. These changes permit use of smaller batteries and more compact arrangements for battery positioning. This in turn permits a much more compact and lightweight construction to achieve the desired results. The devices are also provided with a rotatable clip structure to render use of the device more comfortable when the user is seated and to provide greater control over the direction of the dispensing. Further, they are provided with modified lids to facilitate active refill replacement.

Abstract: A pressure sprayer includes an accumulator vessel adapted to hold a pressurized fluid therein and a container that is configured to hold a chemical concentrate. A motor in fluid communication with the accumulator vessel and the container is adapted to be driven by the pressurized fluid and to pump the pressurized fluid and the chemical concentrate. A chamber is adapted to receive the chemical concentrate and the pressurized fluid from the motor to form a chemical solution. A nozzle is in fluid communication with the chamber.

Abstract: Bait stations are provided which present the ability to monitor bait and expand capacity of bait without materially adversely affecting feeding activity. In one form a slow acting toxicant-laced attractant is provided in the station. The station has an outer housing, an openable opaque lid, and a transparent window moveable relative to both the lid and housing. One can move the lid while leaving the window in place, or move both the lid and window. Removal of both permits attachment of a second such housing to the first, while the first remains in place. The lid and window can then be affixed to the second housing. These stations can be used to control termites and other crawling pests.

Abstract: A data center having multiple rows of computer racks for holding heat-generating computer equipment is cooled by a liquid overfeed air conditioning unit that provides supply air at a temperature of about forty degrees Fahrenheit (40° F. or lower). The air conditioning unit is positioned outside the data center. Ducting from the heat exchanger outlet of the unit is connected to supply registers mounted in aisles that are provided between the rows of computer racks so that very cold supply air enters the space between the racks. Each computer rack includes vertically spaced compartments that house computer components to be cooled. At least one circulation fan is associated with each compartment and causes supply air to flow through the compartment to cool the components. The supply air gradually warms as it flows through successive compartments and is approximately 72° Fahrenheit when it reaches a return register in the ceiling of the data center.

Abstract: An air diffuser that injects triangular columns of air into a space to be air conditioned. The triangular columns of air entrain air into their wake and set up a cross flow of air in a direction normal to the path of travel of the air in the triangular columns. In a first embodiment, a plurality of elongate, triangular nozzles are disposed at an angle in penetrating relation to a ceiling so that a first end of each nozzle is above the plane of the ceiling and a second end of each nozzle is below the plane. A housing in fluid communication with a source of air to be introduced into the space is positioned above the ceiling in housing relation to the respective first ends of the nozzles so that air introduced into the housing under positive pressure is constrained to exit the housing through the nozzles. In second and third embodiments, the nozzles are of differing geometrical configurations in transverse section and do not penetrate the plane of the panel within which they are mounted.
