Publication number: 20110068197Abstract: The present invention provides an air blower relating to a cleaning device. The air blower includes an elastic ball body provided with a nozzle hole and a check hole, a nozzle disposed in the nozzle hole, and a check valve disposed in the check hole. A check portion of the nozzle is disposed into the elastic ball body and is tightly connected with the edge of the nozzle hole. The check portion is provided therein with a stopping assembly for blocking or opening the nozzle hole. With the stopping assembly provided at the nozzle hole, the nozzle hole is opened when the airflow within the elastic ball body is ejected out and closed when the external air enters the elastic ball body. In this way, the external air can be prevented from entering the air blower through the nozzle efficiently.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 14, 2010Publication date: March 24, 2011Inventor: Wei-Hong SHEN

Publication number: 20100308133Abstract: A rinsing liquid supplying device includes a bottle for storing rinsing liquid, a liquid outlet unit, and a locking collar formed with a collar opening. The bottle includes a mouth section. The liquid outlet unit includes a hollow fixing section, a spraying section formed with a spray hole unit, and an intermediate duct section disposed between and in fluid communication with the fixing section and the spraying section. The fixing section has an annular lip disposed to abut against the mouth section of the bottle, and a liquid guide interconnecting the annular lip and the intermediate duct section. The locking collar is adapted for engaging the mouth section. The liquid guide extends through the locking collar, and the annular lip is clamped between the locking collar and the mouth section to retain the liquid outlet unit on the bottle when the locking collar engages the mouth section.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 3, 2009Publication date: December 9, 2010Inventor: Chin-Chun YEH

Patent number: 7823808Abstract: An electrostatic spraying device having a removable cartridge with a reservoir containing a volume of liquid compositions to be electrically sprayed on a user's skin. The device includes a nozzle for dispensing the liquid as well as an emitter electrode disposed adjacent to the nozzle for charging the liquid composition just being dispensed from the nozzle. A field electrode surrounds the reservoir in order to charge the liquid composition within the reservoir, thereby avoiding an occurrence of electric current which would otherwise flow in the liquid composition and would deteriorate the composition remaining in the reservoir. The reservoir is devoid of the field electrode, and therefor can be designed into a simple and compact structure without being restricted by the field electrode, assuring to have an enhanced liquid containing volume in relation to the bulk of the removable cartridge.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2004Date of Patent: November 2, 2010Assignees: Panasonic Electric Works Co., Ltd., The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Naoki Yamaguchi, Koji Asakawa, David Edward Wilson, Shunichi Nagasawa

Patent number: 7798421Abstract: A spray gun (1) has a fluid reservoir (11) with a removable liner (13) received in a container (12) having a detachable lid (15). The liner (13), which may be thermo/vacuum-formed from a planar material, has a shape that corresponds to and is a close fit within the interior of the container (12) and collapses as fluid is withdrawn from within the liner (13) during operation of the spray gun (1). The lid (15) has an outlet (16) connected to an inlet on the spray gun (1) for transfer of liquid from the reservoir (11) to the spray gun (1) and the container (12) has a vent (12A) in the base end for admitting air between the container (12) and the liner (13) as liquid is withdrawn from within the liner (13).Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2007Date of Patent: September 21, 2010Assignee: 3M Innovative Properties CompanyInventors: Stephen C.

Patent number: 7798426Abstract: A spray gun (1) has a fluid reservoir (11) which contains a removable liner (13). The liner (13), which may be thermo/vacuum-formed from a plastic material, is a close fit within the interior of the reservoir and collapses as fluid is withdrawn from within the liner during operation of the gun. Preferably, the liner has a comparatively-rigid base and is capable of standing, unsupported, outside the reservoir. The side walls of the liner are preferably thin in comparison to the base and can be collapsed for disposal of the liner. The reservoir (11) has a removable lid (15) and is capable of standing, inverted, on its own so that it can be filled with fluid. The lid (15) also functions to secure the liner (13) in the reservoir and, at the end of a spraying operation, the lid (15) and the liner (13) are removed together from the reservoir (11) and discarded, thereby simplifying the cleaning of the spray gun.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2004Date of Patent: September 21, 2010Assignee: 3M Innovative Properties CompanyInventors: Stephen C.
