Abstract: A fluid container is disclosed. The container includes an enclosure for containing liquid and a first closure member. The first closure member is in the form of a fluid discharge assembly which includes a selectively removable valve body mounted for movement between an open position to permit flow of liquid from the enclosure and a closed position to prevent flow of liquid through the fluid discharge assembly. In addition, the closure includes a cap member mountable to a container, and the cap member defines a product outlet passage. The valve body is disposed for movement within the outlet passage between an open position to permit flow of product through the passage from said container and a closed position to prevent flow of product through the passage. The valve body is selectively removable from the outlet passage.

Abstract: A liquid heating appliance having a dispensing valve which is supported by a liquid reservoir and which includes an axially compressible conduit connected at its upper end to the reservoir and supporting at its lower end a nozzle, the nozzle supporting a valve member which is unseated by compressing the conduit.

Abstract: A metal flake grease having malleable metal flakes and an injector gun comprising an adjustable nozzle specially designed to allow metal flake grease to a grease fitting joint and into a worn area between inner and outer portions of the joint to become bonded thereto and form a new lining therein for extending life of the joint.

Abstract: A two piece valve accessory for common caulking tubes or cartridges insertable in caulking guns is disclosed. The valve permits resealing of the cartridge nozzle, snout or applicator tip without hardening or significant wastage of the material therein and permits increased control of the flow rate of material from the cartridge.The valve is adjustable from fully open to closed position and includes a separate sealed or dome extended position wherein the residue from the applicator tip of the valve is expelled.The valve barrel includes an integral piercing edge to break the cartridge seal as the valve is inserted into the applicator tip of the cartridge. The barrel is sized and ribbed for an interference non-rotatable fit within the applicator tip. The valve cap is fully rotatable on the barrel and includes a beveled tip to direct material in any radial direction relative to the caulking gun handle.

Abstract: A continuous spray button assembly of the type primarily used in conjunction with an aerosol dispenser and comprising a button contained within a tubular sleeve. The button and sleeve are rigidly press-fitted over the stem and turret of the valve, respectively. In one embodiment, two upstanding arms are disposed at the upper end of the sleeve. The button is pushed between the upstanding arms which lock the button into a tilted position thereby actuating the tilt valve and dispensing the product. By pushing the button in the reverse direction, the upstanding arms release the button located therebetween to deactuate the tilt valve and terminate dispensing of the product.

Abstract: A showerhead of the type including an inlet end, an outlet end, and a bore defining a passage between the two. Two discs are disposed in the passage, in face-to-face engagement with each other and mounted for relative rotation about a central axis. A plurality of orifices, arranged with their centers spaced at regular intervals around a circle of predetermined diameter, extend through each disc. Each orifice of the downstream disc defines a small port at the downstream face and a large port at the upstream face of the disc. Each orifice through the upstream disc defines at its downstream face a port that communicates with but is smaller than a respective port at upstream face of the downstream disc.

Abstract: This invention relates to a drain valve and is particularly adapted for draining water or other liquid from the bowl of a filter for pneumatic systems. The valve includes a bendable tubular body of flexible material and there is a poppet for normally closing a drain passage through the body. The valve has a stem in the passage which is deflectable by manual bending of the body to unseat the valve for opening the drain passage. There is a means for holding the valve seated when the body is not bent, and a portion of the passage constantly bypasses such means to permit drainage flow when the valve is unseated, regardless of whether there is pressure in the bowl.
