US Patent:

7175111, Feb 13, 2007
Filed:

Mar 3, 2004
Appl. No.:

10/791285
Inventors:

Linn D. Wanbaugh - Blue Springs MO, US

US Classification:

239527, 239525, 239302, 239332, 239333, 239351, 222333
Abstract:

A manually operated sprayer for a container of liquid to be sprayed includes variable volume pump means having liquid inlet and outlet means for discharging the contents of the container. The sprayer further includes a control module having product and vent valves reciprocably disposed therein, the product and vent valves being simultaneously reciprocable by means of the manual actuator between valve open and valve closed positions. In the valve open position, the product and vent valves respectively prevent flow of product and air respectively into the liquid inlet means and into a vent passage in communication between atmosphere and an interior of the container, and in the vent closed position, the product and vent valves respectively enable flow of product and air respectively into the liquid inlet means and into the vent passage.

US Patent:

7255294, Aug 14, 2007
Filed:

May 13, 2005
Appl. No.:

11/128840
Inventors:

Steve L. Sweeton - Lake Winnebago MO, US
Linn D. Wanbaugh - Blue Springs MO, US
David DeJong - West Olive MI, US
Assignee:

MeadWestvaco Corporation - Glen Allen VA
International Classification:

A62C 11/00
US Classification:

239333, 239332, 239351, 239360, 239526, 222333, 417411
Abstract:

A three part housing for a battery powered spray head includes a left half shell, a right half shell and a hinged top. The batteries are located in the upper portion of the housing below the hinged top (battery cover). The inner front of the top is provided with a downward depending latch member and a spring biased latch member is provided inside the housing. The spring biased latch member is actuated by inserting a pin (or stylus) through a hole in one of the half shells. This prevents accidental opening of the battery cover.

US Patent:

7631789, Dec 15, 2009
Filed:

Mar 4, 2005
Appl. No.:

11/072161
Inventors:

Joseph K. Dodd - Lee's Summit MO, US

US Classification:

2224644, 222382, 2223831, 2224641, 222527, 222530
Abstract:

In one embodiment of a dispensing system for connecting a remote power sprayer to a container of liquid, a flexible delivery tube includes one end non-removably connected to a remote retainer and the other end non-removably connected to a connector hose. The remote retainer and connector hose each include strain relief elements which respectively include a retainer adaptor and a connector adaptor for relieving the connection strain between the tube, the remote retainer and connector hose, as the power sprayer is being pulled and maneuvered during use. In a second embodiment, the flexible delivery tube includes one end non-removably connected to a remote retainer and the other end disposed freely in a container, but plugged onto a connector hose and including a spring weight slidably disposed thereon.

Battery Operated Spray Head Retrofittable Onto Existing Pump Spray Containers And Producing Substantially Continuous Spray

US Patent:

20060153707, Jul 13, 2006
Filed:

Jan 13, 2005
Appl. No.:

11/034600
Inventors:

Steven Sweeton - Lake Winnebago MO, US
Linn Wanbaugh - Blue Springs MO, US
David DeJong - West Olive MI, US
International Classification:

F04B 35/04
US Classification:

417411000
Abstract:

A battery operated spray pump includes a piston pump having a double wave cam which is pushed by a pair of rotating cam pushers coupled to the electric motor via a gear transmission. The double wave cam has an unequal duty cycle, i.e. takes more time to expel fluid from the piston cylinder than it takes to fill the cylinder. The cam pushers rotate at a speed which, in conjunction with the duty cycle of the cam, produces a low pressure nearly constant stream.
