Abstract: A liquid sprayer which may be removably attached to a liquid reservoir and thus readily interchangeable with a variety of liquid reservoirs. The sprayer includes a discharge nozzle, a manually or electrically powered pump and an actuation mechanism for the pump. The sprayer includes a quick-release coupling means for attaching the sprayer to a complementary quick-release coupling means fitted to the product reservoir. In some embodiments of the present invention, a signaling means on the reservoir communicates with a corresponding receiver means on the sprayer to provide information relating to the liquid contents of the reservoir so that the user will act on the information in a way that optimizes product safety, efficacy, convenience or combinations thereof.

Abstract: Provided is an actuator for use with an aerosol can drain clearing device that removes a drain blockage with pressurized gas contained in the aerosol can. The actuator includes an actuator piece with an actuator dome having a dome aperture therethrough and at least one sidewall that circumscribes the dome aperture. One end of the sidewall is slanted and forms a gas-tight seal with a sink drain flange circumscribing a sink drain. In one embodiment, the actuator includes a coupling piece configured to slidably coupled to the actuator piece at one portion of the coupling piece. In use with a pressurized gas aerosol can, the aerosol can is coupled to another portion of the coupling piece.

Abstract: A combination tool for cleaning and sanitizing a surface is disclosed. The tool includes a cleaning device and at least one UV flash unit. The cleaning device can be adapted for either wet or dry cleaning. The combination tool can also include a dispensing unit that can dispense a treatment agent. The tool can also include a sensor that can detect surface properties. In some arrangements, the tool includes a motive component that can propel the tool robotically.

Abstract: This invention relates to packaging for dilute hypochlorite and hypochlorous acid compositions to produce stable compositions. Examples of suitable packaging containers are a bag-in-can device, a plastic aerosol container, a dual delivery container, a dual chambered device, an expandable chamber device, a precompression trigger sprayer, a mechanically pressurized device, and an ultrasonic sprayer.
