Patent number: 10086392Abstract: A dispenser for applying at least two compositions, the dispenser including at least two reservoirs for storing the at least two compositions separately, at least two pumps for pumping the at least two compositions, which pumps have different strokes, an exit orifice, and an actuator assembly. The difference between the first stroke and the second stroke is accommodated through flexure of a flexing member in the actuator assembly. The first composition includes microcapsules and the second composition includes a volatile solvent.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2017Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Lee Burrowes, William John Cleveland Connolly, Andrew Graham Masters, James Samuel Richardson

Patent number: 8322631Abstract: A trigger pump sprayer in combination with a liquid dispensed from the sprayer. The sprayer is suitable for dispensing liquid from a reservoir, through a nozzle into particles. The trigger sprayer provides for efficacious particle size distributions of the liquids, when sprayed under non-ideal conditions. Non-ideal conditions include only partial strokes of the trigger, rather than full strokes and relatively slow trigger strokes. The trigger sprayer advantageously delivers a particle size distribution suitable for liquids having particular rheological properties. The advantageous particle size distribution difference is accomplished by using a precompression piston which reciprocates in response to trigger strokes, and selecting a liquid having appropriate properties to correspond to the trigger pump operating characteristics.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2010Date of Patent: December 4, 2012Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: James Samuel Richardson, Robin Lefebvre, Victor Klabbers, Elizabeth Jackson Glass, Michael Alan John Moss, Mitsuaki Shaduki

Patent number: 8322630Abstract: A trigger pump sprayer in combination with a liquid dispensed from the sprayer. The trigger sprayer provides for efficacious particle size distributions of the liquids, when sprayed under non-ideal conditions. Non-ideal conditions include only partial strokes of the trigger, rather than full strokes and relatively slow trigger strokes. A bimodal distribution of particle sizes is obtained under two different operating conditions. The sprayer/liquid combination according to the present invention compresses the difference between the two modes, without requiring undue work by the operator. The advantageous particle size distribution difference is accomplished by using a precompression piston which reciprocates in response to trigger strokes, and selecting a liquid having appropriate properties to correspond to the trigger pump operating characteristics.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2010Date of Patent: December 4, 2012Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: James Samuel Richardson, Robin Lefebvre, Victor Klabbers, Elizabeth Jackson Glass, Michael Alan John Moss, Mitsuaki Shaduki
