Patent number: 11857126Abstract: A dispenser bottle containing liquid may be mounted to a wall by a mounting assembly including a base and a carriage plate. Amounting bracket may be anchored to the wall and the carriage plate is coupled to the mounting bracket and is spring biased toward an extended configuration relative to the mounting bracket. A release pin maintains the carriage plate and base in a retracted configuration. A collar projects from an upper end of the mounting bracket to capture a neck of the bottle. A projection extends upwardly from the base and into a socket on the bottom of the bottle when seated on the base. The combination of the mating socket and projection at the base and the collar around the neck of the bottle inhibits removal of the bottle from the mounting assembly when in the retracted configuration.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2021Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Cintas Corporate Services, Inc.Inventors: Richard R. Bing, Megan Kathryn Helms, David Steven Mesko, Michael E. Berger, Adem Önalan, Marco C. Perry

Publication number: 20230329470Abstract: A curtain is suitable for use in a hospital, patient facilities or surgical setting. The curtain is slideably attached along a ceiling track. A top edge of the curtain may be attached to the ceiling track by a number of pulleys each of which may be utilized to lower the top edge of curtain to a height which is conveniently accessible to someone standing on the floor of the room to remove and/or replace the curtain. In some embodiments of this invention, the curtain has a top portion joined to a bottom portion by a zipper. The pulleys lower the curtain for someone to easily access the zipper to remove, replace and/or attach the bottom portion from/to the top portion. In other embodiments, the pulleys lower the entire curtain for removal and replacement.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2022Publication date: October 19, 2023Inventors: Richard R. Bing, Bryan J.

Publication number: 20230148778Abstract: A curtain is suitable for use in a hospital or patient facilities or in surgical settings. The curtain includes a bottom panel removably attached and suspended from a top panel. The top panel may be suspended from a rail by suspension means such as hooks or rings. The top panel may be a mesh so as to allow air, light, and/or water to pass through. The bottom panel may be opaque to provide privacy. The bottom panel may be single-use or disposable, or may be reusable. The top and bottom panels are joined by a zipper to allow for removal of the bottom panel for washing or replacement. The zipper track has curved portions to allow for easier access to begin the zipping and unzipping process. The curved portions orient the zipper out of the plane of the curtain to allow for easier movement of zipper through the curved portions.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2022Publication date: May 18, 2023Inventors: Richard R. Bing, Bryan J. Colpo, Shawn K. King, David Steven Mesko, Amy E. Wilker, Michael Komatz, Adem Önalan, Marco Perry, Brooke Williams

Patent number: 11641986Abstract: Dispensers are capable of being used in one orientation for dispensing paper towels upwardly when situated on a countertop and also in a second orientation for dispensing paper towels downwardly when mounted on a wall or other surface. Moreover, the dispensers can be easily modified to present a different finish by installing the desired outer shell components on the dispenser. The dispenser utilizes an inner cartridge adapted to house a stack of interleaved paper towels. The paper towels are urged by a spring toward a dispensing slot situated on a housing surrounding the cartridge. The spring urges the leading paper towel in the stack toward the dispensing slot in either orientation for convenient access to the towel by a user.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2021Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: Cintas Corporate Services, Inc.Inventors: Richard R. Bing, Megan Kathryn Helms, David Steven Mesko, Michael E. Berger, Adem Önalan, Marco C. Perry

Patent number: 11576534Abstract: A liquid dispenser includes of a bottle for housing the liquid, a pumping mechanism for discharging liquid from the bottle, and a boss that is connected to and extends from the bottom of the bottle. The boss on the bottle mates with a socket in a base to selectively secure the bottle to the base and a countertop or wall mounted support. The boss and socket are shaped so as to allow for a single orientation of the bottle. The combination of the boss on the bottle and the socket in the base provides a counter-top mounting system to securely anchor the liquid dispensing device. The apparatus also allows the soap reservoir to be easily refilled and utilizes readily available pump components.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2021Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: Cintas Corporate Services, Inc.Inventors: Richard R. Bing, Megan Kathryn Helms, David Steven Mesko, Michael E. Berger, Adem Önalan, Marco C. Perry

The boss on the bottle mates with a socket in a base to selectively secure the bottle to the base and a countertop or wall mounted support. The boss and socket are shaped so as to allow for a single orientation of the bottle. The combination of the boss on the bottle and the socket in the base provides a liquid soap dispensing apparatus having a counter-top mounting system that makes it possible to securely anchor the liquid dispensing device to a surface such as a counter-top and still allow easy removal for portability, so the dispenser can be transported and used in other areas. The apparatus also allows the soap reservoir to be easily refilled and utilizes readily available pump components.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2021Publication date: June 23, 2022Inventors: Richard R.

Publication number: 20220192441Abstract: A dispenser for rolled paper includes a shell mounted to a spindle assembly which is mounted to a wall for convenient access in a bathroom or other facility. The dispenser also includes a lid assembly mounted to the shell and spindle assembly for rotational or pivotal movement to and between closed and open configurations. When in the closed configuration, a free edge of the paper roll may be pulled from the roll and the roll rotates on the spindle assembly for dispensing the paper. The paper roll may be inspected and/or replaced by rotation of the lid assembly about a pivot pin to an open configuration. Cooperating cam and cam surfaces and the bias of a spring on the pivot pin urge the lid assembly away from the shell during rotation toward the open configuration to allow for proper clearance and positioning of the lid assembly relative to the shell.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2021Publication date: June 23, 2022Inventors: Richard R.
