  • Patent number: 4350299
    Abstract: A remote delivery nozzle assembly is adapted to be releasably connected to a pressurized container to permit delivery of the pressurized contents thereof to a location remote from the container. A cap assembly is connected through a flexible conduit to a wand for delivery of the pressurized contents of the container. Upon seating of the cap assembly on the container, the valve of the container is opened pressurizing the wand through the flexible conduit. The wand includes a flexible membrane which when depressed by finger pressure opens a valve between the pressurized inlet and an outlet passage to deliver the pressurized fluid.

  • Patent number: 4278188
    Abstract: A remote delivery nozzle assembly is adapted to be releasably connected to a pressurized container to permit delivery of the pressurized contents thereof to a location remote from the container. A connector assembly flowably connects one end of a delivery conduit to the valve stem of the container while a manually operable valve and nozzle coupled with the other end of the delivery conduit provides remote control of the release of the pressurized contents. The connector assembly comprises a hollow cap which frictionally engages an upstanding, annular rim of the container and completely encloses the valve stem. A connector element extends through the aperture in the top of the cap in aligned relationship to the valve stem, and is secured to the cap by frictional engagement therewith. An O-ring interposed between the connector element and the top of the cap provides a gas tight seal therebetween.

  • Patent number: 4269630
    Abstract: Optical components and highly-polished metal surfaces are cleaned with a first composition comprising 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane, isopropyl alcohol, dimethylformamide and 2-ethoxyethanol; then, while the surface is still wet with said first composition, a second composition, comprising at least about 85% 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane and containing less than 10 ppm of non-volatile residues, is applied to rinse the surface; and the surface is permitted to dry.
