Abstract: Exemplary soap and sanitize dispensers are disclosed herein. An exemplary soap or sanitizing dispenser includes a housing, a permanent reservoir located within the housing, a pump in fluid communication with the permanent reservoir and a refill port. The refill port is configured to connect to a refill container. A refilling vent conduit extends upward from the permanent reservoir. The refill vent conduit extends above a maximum fill line of the refill unit and a vent valve is located proximate an upper end of the refill vent conduit.

Abstract: Foam dispensers, refill units for foam dispensers and liquid pumps for use in foam dispensers are disclosed herein. A refill unit for refilling a foam dispenser system is also disclosed herein. The foam dispenser has an air compressor secured thereto and the air compressor is not disposed of with the refill unit. The refill unit includes a liquid pump and a container for holding a foamable liquid that is connected to the liquid pump. The liquid pump includes a pump housing and a mixing chamber having an inlet check valve and an outlet check valve. The mixing chamber has an extended position with a first volume and a contracted position with a second volume. The pump housing includes an aperture therethrough configured to receive air from an air compressor that does not form part of the refill unit. One or more one-way sealing members are located within the pump housing between the aperture and the mixing chamber for preventing liquid from passing through the aperture in the pump housing for receiving air.

Abstract: A mixing spray device adapted to mix an added material with source water supplied from a hose. The mixing spray device comprises a main body and a container that may be detachably attached to the main body. The mixing spray device may be configured to operate in an off configuration in which nothing is dispensed, a water configuration in which only water is dispense, and a mixture configuration in which both water and the added material are dispensed. The mixing spray device may also comprise an attachment assembly that is rotatably connected to a handle portion. The container is detachably attached to the attachment assembly and thus may rotate relative to the handle portion. The container may be provided with a container member, an interface member, and a restriction member. The container may be attached to the main body using a flange on the container and a latch structure on the main body.

Abstract: A dish draining rack (10) is disclosed comprising a central upwardly opening chamber (12) defined by longitudinal side panels (18,20) and end panels (26,28). The side panels ( 18, 20) are formed to include a series of convoluted concave depressions (30) defined by concave depress(on side walls (32). Edge portions (40) ofthe floor surface (16) cant downward from the center to the side panels (18,20), and a passageway (34) is positioned below each depression (30) and extends through the floor surface (16). An inverted glass positioned upon the edge surface portion (40) tilts into one of the depressions (30) where it is supporied by the depression concave side walls (32). So positioned, water in the glass collects and travels along an outward surface of the glass to the floor surface (16) and thence through the passageways (34) through the floor edge portions (40) to a mat below the rack.
