  • Patent number: 9149553
    Abstract: A transducer type liquid sprayer in that mist can be dispersed widely even when the liquid sprayer is dispersed in a relatively low position. The liquid sprayer contains a storage tank for storing spray liquid that can be easily replaced together with a core for soaking up the spray liquid from the storage tank. The liquid sprayer includes a spray liquid storage unit and a main body for supporting the spray liquid storage unit and a power supply unit. A spray hole is formed in the lid member and a transducer is also disposed inside the lid member and electrically connected to the power supply unit. The transducer is in contact with a front side of a tip end portion of the core with the front face of the transducer oriented forward and upward.

  • Patent number: 7908680
    Abstract: A multi-function canister, mountable within a urinal chamber, is held in place by a spring clip that is insertable in one of the flush apertures at the top of the chamber, and which biases the canister against the chamber rear wall. The canister includes an onboard fragrance tablet that continually dispenses an odor-counteracting aroma. The canister also includes a reservoir filled with a solid compound, a dissolved portion of which is released into the chamber with each flush by water flowing from the aperture in which the spring clip is installed. A deflector tray limits the amount of water flowing into the reservoir. The dissolved portion inhibits the formation of potassium phosphate scale (urine calculus) on the surfaces of the urinal chamber and drainage pipes. The solid compound may be sulfamic acid. The canister may also include a grill which covers and protects the fragrance tablet.
