  • Patent number: 9309601
    Abstract: The methods, systems, and apparatus disclosed herein employ natural, common salts, that are electrochemically activated (ECA) in an aqueous solution to result in an ECA product solution that is safe and non-toxic. Various implementations include a portable table top design having a portable receptacle that includes electrodes. The receptacle fits on a base which provides power for the electrochemical activation. Continuous flow designs receive input water, mix the water with reactants then pass the solution between electrodes to electrochemically activate the solution. Using a metal halide salt, such as NaCl with citric acid may produce a sanitizer or disinfectant. Using a metal carbonate salt, such as K2CO3, as the reactant may result in a cleaning or degreasing solution. Another implementation is that of an immersion wand that can be placed in a reservoir to produce the ECA product solution.

  • Publication number: 20140263471
    Abstract: A measuring dispenser is described that employs a dispensing head that connects to a container with particulate solids that are intended to be measured and dispensed. The dispensing head employs a rotor with an adjustable sized measuring receptacle. As the rotor is turned, the particulate solids are accurately measured and dispensed out of a discharge port. The measuring receptacle is designed to receive a structure that reduces the size of the measuring receptacle to a predetermined volume. In an embodiment, the measuring receptacle is cylindrical and threaded. A plug is screwed into the measuring receptacle to adjust the measuring receptacle to a predetermined volume. In an alternative embodiment, an insert cup is snapped into the measuring receptacle to provide a desired measuring volume. This insert cup may be changed to adjust the volume being measured.
