  • Patent number: 7806878
    Abstract: A medicament applicator for use with a medicament cartridge is disclosed herein. The applicator comprises a first handle member and a second handle member, both of which are movable with respect to one another between a first handle position and a second handle position. The applicator further comprises a first separating member and a second separating member, which are movable between a first separating position, which corresponds to the first handle position, and a second separating position, which corresponds to the second handle position. The applicator further comprises a compressing apparatus attached to the applicator, which compresses the medicament cartridge and selectively expels the medicament from the medicament cartridge.

  • Patent number: 7441305
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a floor cleaner apparatus, such as a vacuum cleaner, including a housing have a particle retaining element and a head operably connected to the housing. The head features an intake port through which dirt and other particles enter the head and a motor and fan assembly that creates suction during operation. A passageway or duct extends between the intake port through the motor and fan assembly. Within the duct, an internal divider forms a plurality of discrete intake chambers wherein each chamber is in fluid communication with the intake port. A beater element, such as a rotatable cylinder with a brush, is positioned above the intake port and proximate the intake chambers. A chamber control mechanism is provided to sequentially apply suction through the various intake chambers to both focus and increase the suction applied to the floor and thereby increase the amount of dirt and particles removed by the cleaner.
