  • Publication number: 20090261185
    Abstract: A spraying apparatus includes: a tank that stores a fluid; a spraying unit that is disposed at a lower portion of the tank, is connected to the tank through a flow path, and sprays the fluid that flows from the tank through the flow path by a weight of the fluid; a flow-path opening/closing unit that is disposed on the flow path between the tank and the spraying unit, and opens and closes the flow path; and an electrolyzing unit that is disposed between the flow-path opening/closing unit and the spraying unit, and electrolyzes at least a portion of the fluid. The fluid electrolyzed by the electrolyzing unit is supplied to the spraying unit by an opening and closing of the flow-path opening/closing unit.

  • Publication number: 20090159436
    Abstract: An electrolyzed water generating and spraying device that allows generating electrolyzed water in a short time, and allows spraying non-deteriorated electrolyzed water immediately after being generated. The electrolyzed water generating and spraying device has a container, and housed therein, an electrolytic cell to generate electrolyzed water through electrolysis of an electrolytic solution by an electrode, a manual spray pump to manually spray the electrolyzed water generated in the electrolytic cell, and a power supply to energize the electrode. A tank to store the electrolytic solution and the electrolytic cell are provided independently in the container, such that the electrolytic cell is disposed below the tank, and the tank and the electrolytic cell communicate with each other via a communicating passage. Part of at least the electrolytic cell in the container is transparent. Also, the volume of the electrolytic cell is set to be smaller than the volume of the tank.

  • Publication number: 20080142617
    Abstract: A spray device which can spray a liquid without using a pump and does not cause dripping of a material liquid at a spray port is provided. The spray device comprises a housing 2, a material liquid tank 6 attached to or stored in the housing 2 and reserving a predetermined material liquid, a spray portion 20 having a spray port for spraying the material liquid to the outside, a liquid passage 8 having the material liquid tank 6 communicate with the spray portion 20, and liquid passing adjusting unit 10 for applying resistance to a flow of the material liquid in the liquid passage 8, and the liquid passage 8 is arranged so that the flow direction of the material liquid in the liquid passage 8 is coaxial with the spray direction of the spray portion 20.

  • Publication number: 20050139465
    Abstract: An electrolytic aqueous solution tank (4) and a waste liquid tank (32) are disposed above a pump (6) to prevent electrolytic water from flowing to the waste liquid tank from the electrolytic aqueous solution tank under a siphoning effect. The electrolytic aqueous solution tank (4) and the waste liquid tank (32) are formed separately from the housing (2) so that both tanks can be attached to and detached from the housing (2). The electrolytic aqueous solution tank (4) and the waste liquid tank (32) are urged against the housing (2) by means of an elastic member (66) attached to the tank (4) and an elastic member (70) attached to the tank (32). As a result, when the waste liquid tank (32) is removed, it is inclined and hence there is no fear of spilling of waste liquid.

  • Patent number: 6705462
    Abstract: There is provided a cap for a contents mixer that is capable of, with a simple operation, storing a first contents and another contents in isolation from one another until they are needed, and of mixing the at least two contents together when necessary. To this end, a cap for the contents mixer is attached to an opening section of a container body. The cap comprises a cap main body with a first contents storage tube. The first contents storage tube having a thin bottom that is sealed, yet capable of being opened. The storage tube is suspended from a lower surface of a top wall of the cap main body. The first contents storage tube further is formed with an engagement section for attaching it to an opening section of the container main body at an inner surface. A cutting tube is also included with a blocked head section and the cutting tube has a flange section formed at an outer periphery of the head section.
