  • Patent number: 5769552
    Abstract: By employing two integrated components which cooperate to achieve a product dispensing trigger assembly, and mounting these two components to a container within which the desired product is retained and on which a desired seal is mounted, a unique fluid product holding and dispensing system is realized. In the present invention, the fluid product holding and dispensing system possesses two separate and distinct locked positions which assures that the system is retained in either locked position, until change is desired by the user. As a result, accidental or unwanted activation of the system is completely eliminated and users are assured that the product retained and sealed in the container remains sealed until use is desired and accidental opening or rupturing of the seal is completely eliminated.

  • Patent number: 5669533
    Abstract: By employing two principal integrated components which incorporate a reusable sealing member, a resealable product dispensing trigger assembly is achieved. By mounting these two components to a container within which the desired product is retained, a complete fluid product holding and dispensing system is realized. In the present invention, the fluid product holding and dispensing system is alternately repeatedly movable between two separate and distinct locked positions which assures that the system is retained in either locked position, until change is desired by the user. In one position, the container is sealed, while in the second position, the container is open and the fluid is accessible. By employing the present invention, users are assured that the product retained in the container remains sealed until use is desired and accidental opening of the container is completely eliminated. Furthermore, the product can be partially used and resealed by returning the dispensing system to its first position.
