  • Patent number: 6820770
    Abstract: A holder for a pump-type bottle dispenser includes a base section and an adjustable section capable of moving with respect to each other to adapt to dispenser size and/or shape. The adjustable section suitably includes a neck or other extension that supports the neck of the dispenser, and the bottom of the dispenser rests upon the base member as appropriate. The adjustable section is held in place with respect to the base section by a locking mechanism that may include teeth or other extensions on one of the sections that interface with indentations in the other section to provide a lock against further movement. A post or other support may also be provided to secure the holder against a sink, countertop or other support. Such a holder is particularly useful for soap dispensers and the like which may be provided in public facilities such as vehicle lavatories.

  • Patent number: 6415903
    Abstract: A tipping device for reorienting vertical containers in a horizontal orientation which includes, a lift structured to lift a container, a transfer assembly having two transfer members and a gap there between. The transfer members each have a generally convex portion and an elongated, generally horizontal portion. the generally convex portion is disposed at an elevation that is lower than the generally horizontal portion. The lift slides a container over the generally convex portion onto the generally horizontal portion causing the orientation of the container to change from vertical to generally horizontal.

  • Patent number: 5489610
    Abstract: A method of treating a patient suffering from a condition requiring vasodilator therapy, comprising long term, continuous adminstration of an organic nitrite to the patient in a dosage form capable of delivering a sufficient therapeutic amount of nitrite to the bloodstream of the patient thereby providing effective vasodilator therapy for at least 24 hours without the development of tolerance in the patient. The method of the invention is useful in treating conditions such as angina, particularly chronic, stable angina pectoris, ischemic diseases and congestive heart failure, and for controlling hypertension and/or impotence in male patients.

  • Patent number: 5278192
    Abstract: The present invention provides a novel method of vasodilator therapy for treating a patient suffering from a condition, comprising long term, continuous administration of an organic nitrite to a patient suffering from the condition in a dosage form capable of delivering a sufficient therapeutic amount of nitrite to the blood stream of the patent thereby providing effective vasodilator therapy for at least 24 hours without development of tolerance in the patient. The method of the invention is useful in treating conditions such as, for example, angina, particularly chronic, stable angina pectoris, ischemic diseases, congestive heart failure, for controlling hypertension and/or impotence in male patients.Any conventional drug delivery system can be employed in carrying out the method of the invention. The drug delivery system can take virtually as many different forms as there are dosage forms available for delivery of nitrite to a patient.
