  • Patent number: 5957329
    Abstract: A coin and credit card activated windshield washer solution dispensing system for use at car washes, convenience stores, and gas stations by the public through which an operator can neatly transfer a metered amount of windshield washer solution directly into a motor vehicle's windshield washer fluid reservoir without the use of a funnel. The system can be housed as a independent, stand-alone unit or combined in a housing with other automotive-related service systems, such as air/vacuum service units. The present invention can comprise an air compressor to help provide even fluid flow, or in the alternative it can be gravity-fed. The compressor-driven embodiment comprises a fluid tank, a pump, a pressure regulator, a regulator gauge, an adjustable timer, a solenoid, access to a remote power supply, a step-down transformer, and an elongated dispensing nozzle with a shut-off control that is easily operable by customers to prevent overfill.
