DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The present disclosure provides a portable multi-fluid dispenser (also referred to herein as “MFD”) for use in separately storing and dispensing a plurality of fluids. The presently disclosed subject matter now will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which some, but not all embodiments of the presently disclosed subject matter are shown. Like numbers refer to like elements throughout. The presently disclosed subject matter may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will satisfy applicable legal requirements. Indeed, many modifications and other embodiments of the presently disclosed subject matter set forth herein will come to mind to one skilled in the art to which the presently disclosed subject matter pertains having the benefit of the teachings presented in the foregoing descriptions and the associated drawings. Therefore, it is to be understood that the presently disclosed subject matter is not to be limited to the specific embodiments disclosed and that modifications and other embodiments are intended to be included within the scope of the appended claims.
Referring now to FIG. 1 which depicts an embodiment of the MFD 100, featuring an outer shell 102, vertical see-through slits 103 in said outer shell, a removable cap 101, a partly detached portion of the removable cap 108, pump caps 104 and nozzle parts of said pump caps 105. FIG. 2 illustrates a perspective view of an embodiment of the MFD 100 depicting a side opening in the removable cap 101, through which a pump cap 104 is visible. When a user presses down on the partly detached portion of the removable cap 108, the pumping operation of the pump cap 105 showing through the removable cap 101 side opening is activated, and a certain amount of the fluid present in the capsule 200 connected to said pump cap 104 is dispensed via the pump cap nozzle 105, said dispensed fluid may then be collected by the user. All the different elements of the MFD 100 such as cylindrical outer shell 102, removable cap 101, partly detached portion of the removable cap 108, deodorant and sleeve (shown at least in FIGS. 3 and 4—numbered, respectively, 106 and 107), capsules (a capsule is shown at least in FIG. 6, and assigned the number 200) and pump caps 104 comprising nozzles 105 may be made out of any material commonly used in the art, including but not limited to, polymeric material, composites, alloys, metal. In a preferred embodiment, the removable cap 101 and outer shell 102 is made out of ABS (Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) and the capsules are made out of Copolyester resin. In some embodiments, the different elements of the MFD are each made of any suitable material or combination of materials. It will be recognized by those with ordinary skill in the art that said different elements may be fashioned from any suitable material. Each element of the MFD may be fashioned as one part, or an element may be fashioned as at least two parts that are subsequently attached together to form the element.
The removable cap rotates horizontally while attached to the cylindrical outer shell, thus the side opening may be positioned by a user in front of a pump cap of choice, thereby enabling the user to select the capsule from which fluid will be dispensed. In some embodiments of the MFD 100, the removable cap snaps into said positions via a bending beam, which contains a round protrusion that snaps into mating circular protrusions when located at a desired position. In other embodiments, the removable cap 101 is secured to the cylindrical outer shell 102 by magnetic force attraction, and can be rotated horizontally to be secured to said outer shell in a plurality of pre-determined positions. Additionally, in some embodiments of the MFD 100, a user is able to “lock” the MFD 100 (not shown), wherein in such position the side opening of the removable cap 101 is placed in between two pumps caps 104, thus pressing down on the partly detached part 108 of the removable cap 101 does not activate the pumping operation of any of the pump caps 104, thereby preventing an accidental dispense of fluid when the MFD 100 is not in use. By horizontal rotation, is meant herein that when the MFD 100 is looked at from above, the removable cap 101 may be rotated in either clockwise or anticlockwise direction, and thus be secured to the cylindrical outer shell 102 in a number of pre-determined positions.
In some embodiments of the MFD 100, fluid is dispensed by pressing down on the partly detached portion 108 of the removable cap 101. The detachment 111 between the partly detached portion 108 and the removable cap 101 is shown in FIG. 10. The inside of the partially detached portion 108 comprises a protrusion (shown in the top sectional view illustrated in FIG. 10). This protrusion does not press down on the pump caps 104 when the MFD 100 is not used. In a preferred embodiment, said protrusion does not touch the pump caps 104 when the partly detached portion 108 is not pressed down. However, when the partly detached portion 108 is pressed down, it presses down the pump cap 104 of choice, just as a user's finger would. As the user presses down on the partly detached portion 108, he or she is using one singular dispenser and dispensing a certain amount of liquid. The inside protrusion of the partially detached portion 108 of the removable cap 101 may have any suitable shape and size, as long as it allows said protrusion to effectively press down on a pump cap 104. The shape of said protrusion may be, without limitation, circular, square, elliptical or rectangular. The pump cap 104 used in the MFD 100, may be any type of pump cap traditionally used in the art. In some embodiments of the presently disclosed MFD 100, the pump cap 104 comprises a straw part to enable reaching and dispensing fluids present in the bottom of the capsules 200. In some embodiments of the presently disclosed MFD 100, the nozzle part 105 of the pump cap 104, can be “locked” by the user into a position in which the nozzle is aimed toward the center of the round side of the capsule 200 (the round side of the capsule is shown at least in FIG. 6). The user performs said locking of the nozzle 105 after securing the pump cap 104 to the capsule 200, by rotating the portion of the pump cap 104 which comprises the nozzle 105. In some embodiments, the capsule 200 and pump cap 101 comprise markings, such as arrows, to assist the user in positioning the nozzle in the position described above. Said position ensures that dispensed liquids squirt through the removable cap 101 side opening.
In the MFD embodiment according to which the removable cap 101 is secured to the cylindrical outer shell 102 by magnetic force, a user may replace a capsule 200 by removing said removable cap 101, which is done by pulling said removable cap 101 away from the outer cylindrical shell 102, thereby making the capsules 200 accessible. The capsule, or capsules, then may be pulled out and a new capsule, or a re-filled capsule, may be fitted inside the MFD 100. Alternatively, once the removable cap 101 is removed from the cylindrical outer shell 102, the pump cap 104 may be removed from a capsule 200, or capsules, of choice, and the capsule/s may be filled, or re-filled, with liquid. The pump cap/s 104 and the removable cap 101 may then be re-secured to the capsules 200 and outer cylindrical shell 102, respectively, and the MFD is then ready for use.
FIG. 3 depicts an embodiment of the MFD 100 featuring a spray deodorant 107 attached to the closed end of the MFD via a tight-fitting sleeve 106, wherein the spray deodorant is in a closed position. In some embodiments of the MFD, the deodorant may be attached to the closed end of the cylindrical outer shell 102 using magnetic force attraction (not shown). The deodorant according to the present disclosure may be any type of deodorant such as, without limitation, spray deodorant or roll-on deodorant.
FIG. 4 depicts an embodiment of the MFD 100 featuring a spray deodorant 107 attached to the closed end of the MFD 100 via a tight-fitting sleeve 106, wherein the spray deodorant 107 is in opened position. To attach said spray deodorant, said tight fitting sleeve 106 slides over the bottom of the cylindrical outer shell 102. In another embodiment, said tight-fitting sleeve 106 snaps to the bottom of the cylindrical outer shell 102. A person skilled in the art will appreciate that the spray deodorant 107 may be attached to the closed end (bottom) of the cylindrical outer shell 102 by any suitable means, preferably magnetic force attraction. The MFD 100 may or may not comprise the spray deodorant attachment.
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the MFD 100, depicting five capsules 200 fitting inside the cylindrical outer shell 102, wherein said capsules 200 feature a vertical groove (shown in FIG. 6, and assigned the number 201). FIG. 5 partly shows said vertical grooves 201 fitting onto the vertical protrusions (also referred to herein as threads) in the inside part of the cylindrical outer shell 102. The threads and grooves thus couple the capsules 200 to their positions inside the cylindrical outer shell 102. A person skilled in the art will appreciate that other fitting or locking means may be substituted for the threads and grooves 201 without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
The vertical see-through slits 103 in the cylindrical outer shell 102 allow viewing of the level, color and texture of fluids in the capsules 200. User may recognize the fluid he or she wants to dispense based on the look and texture of the fluid, and determine how much of the fluid is left in the capsule 200. The vertical see-through slits 103 may be transparent portions of the cylindrical outer shell 102, or openings in the cylindrical outer shell 102. The vertical see-through slits 103 may be of any size and shape that enables a user to view the liquid in the capsules 200, or view a label affixed to the capsules 200.
In addition, in another embodiment of the presently disclosed MFD 100, the capsules 200 may be labeled to identify the fluid they contain. The label is positioned so that it is visible to the user via the vertical see-through slits 103. Said labels comprise, without limitation, stickers, prints, writing, or engravement. A person skilled in the art will appreciate that any conventional way of labeling an object is within the scope of the present invention. Said labels comprise text, drawings, symbols or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the capsules 200 may be labeled for different kinds of fluids by the manufacturer. In yet other embodiments, the capsules 200 comprise stickers on which the user may write in order to label said capsules. In yet other embodiments, the capsules 200 comprise a designated area on which a label may be affixed, drawn or written by the user to allow viewing of the label via the see-through slit 103.
FIG. 6 illustrates an embodiment of a capsule 200. The capsule 200 comprises vertical grooves 201 designed to fit onto the vertical protrusions (threads) in the inside part of the cylindrical outer shell 102, thus securing the capsule 200 inside the cylindrical outer shell 102. The capsule 200 also features two straight sides 202 and one circular side, which enable efficient placement of multiple capsules 200 in the circular profile of the cylindrical outer shell 102 (as illustrated in FIG. 5). The capsule 200 is opened on one end. The opening part allows filling the capsule 200 with liquid, and attaching a pump cap 104 to said capsule. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the pump cap 104 may be secured to the capsule 200 using a screw-on closure. A person skilled in the art will appreciate that the pump cap 104 may be secured to the capsule 200 using any other suitable mechanism, such as without limitation a snap-on closure.
In some embodiments of the MFD 100, the removable cap 101 is secured to the cylindrical outer shell 102 using magnetic force attraction. FIG. 8 illustrates a top view of an embodiment of the cylindrical outer shell 102 depicting the profile of the vertical protrusions on the inside part of said shell. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 8, each said vertical protrusion define a space 109, wherein said space is wider at the open-end side, or top, of the cylindrical outer shell 102 (as shown in FIG. 9). In some embodiments, said wider space 114 at the top of the vertical protrusion is designed to secure a magnet. The terms “magnet” or “magnets” refer herein to magnet/s, permanent magnet/s, or ferromagnet/s. In the embodiment in which the removable cap 101 is secured to the cylindrical outer shell 102 using magnetic force attraction, the inside part of the removable cap 101 comprises vertical protrusions, wherein each said protrusion define a space 110, which is wider at the open end (bottom) of the removable cap 101, and designed to secure a magnet. An embodiment of the protrusions on the inside of the removable cap 101 is illustrated in FIG. 10 which depicts a top sectional view of the removable cap 101. An embodiment of said wider spaces 113 designed to secure magnets at the bottom of the removable cap 101 vertical protrusions is depicted in FIG. 11. The wider spaces 114, 113, designed to secure magnets on the cylindrical outer shell's vertical protrusions and the removable cap's vertical protrusions, respectively, may be of any shape and size, as desired and suitable to ensure the securement of the magnets. Accordingly, the magnets used for securing the removable cap 101 to the cylindrical outer shell 102 may be of any desired shape and size which fits securely in said wider spaces 113, 114 and thus secure the removable cap 101 to the cylindrical outer shell 102 with magnetic force attraction. The type of the magnets in the removable cap 101 and the cylindrical outer shell 102 is selected so as to create a magnetic force attraction between the removable cap 101 and the cylindrical outer shell 102. As an example, when the vertical protrusions of cylindrical outer shell 102 comprise magnets, then the vertical protrusions of the removable cap 101 may comprise ferromagnets. As another example, when the vertical protrusions of removable cap 101 comprise magnets, then the vertical protrusions of the cylindrical outer shell 102 may comprise ferromagnets. In a preferred embodiment, the removable cap 101 is secured to the outer cylindrical shell 102 using neodymium magnets. Each neodymium magnet has north and south side, and north of one magnet attracts the south of another magnet, and vice versa. Accordingly, if the removable cap's magnets are positioned so that their north side is facing outwards (away from the inside of said removable cap 101), the cylindrical outer shell's magnets are positioned so that their south side is facing outwards (away from the inside of said cylindrical outer shell 102). Similarly, if the removable cap's magnets are positioned so that their south side is facing outwards, the cylindrical outer shell's magnets are positioned so that their north side facing outwards. Thus, magnetic force attraction is created between the removable cap 101 and the cylindrical outer shell 102. Similar mechanism, utilizing neodymium magnets to generate magnetic attraction force, may be used to secure a deodorant to the closed end of the cylindrical outer shell 102.
In some embodiments in which the removable cap 101 is secured to the cylindrical outer shell 102 using magnetic force attraction, the removable cap 101 and the cylindrical outer shell 102 comprise the same number of magnets. In other embodiments, the removable cap 101 and the cylindrical outer shell 102 each comprise a different number of magnets. In the embodiment shown at least in FIGS. 9, 10 and 11, the removable cap 101 can be rotated horizontally by the user and be secured by magnetic attraction force in a number of pre-determined positions. In said pre-determined positions the side opening of the removable cap 101 is either in front of any one of the pump caps 104, or in between any two of the pump caps 104. When the removable cap 101 side opening is in front a pump cap 104 (as shown in at least FIG. 13), a user may press down on the partly detached portion 108 of the removable cap 101 and thus dispense liquid. When the removable cap 101 side opening is in between two pump caps, the partly detached portion 108 of the removable cap 101 cannot be used to easily pressed down on the pump caps; this position therefore prevents accidental dispense of liquid when the MFD 100 is not in use. In some embodiments of the MFD 100, some of the magnets in the removable cap 101 and cylindrical outer shell 102 overlap partly or completely when the removable cap 101 is secured to the cylindrical outer shell 102. In some embodiments of the MFD 100, some of the magnets in the removable cap 101 and cylindrical outer shell 102 do not overlap when the removable cap 101 is secured to the cylindrical outer shell 102. In a preferred embodiment, the magnets in the removable cap 101 and cylindrical outer shell 102 do not touch each other when the removable cap 101 is secured to the cylindrical outer shell 102. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 10, there are no magnets secured to the inside part of the removable cap 101 in the area that is immediately below the side opening. It will be appreciated by one skilled in the art, that any number of magnetic pieces may be used in the cylindrical outer shell 102 and removable cap 101 to secure said cap to said shell, while at the same time enable horizontal rotation of the removable cap 101.
FIG. 12 illustrates an embodiment of the MFD 100 in which magnetic force attraction is used to secure the removable cap 101 to the cylindrical outer shell 102. The magnets 112 secured in the vertical protrusions of the cylindrical outer shell 102 are shown. The capsules 200 are secured in the cylindrical outer shell 102. The capsules 200 are in fluid communication with pump caps 104 comprising nozzles 105 and vertical see-through slits 103 in the cylindrical outer shell 102 allow for viewing the capsules 200 content. The removable cap 101 is shown un-secured to the cylindrical outer shell 102, and it comprises a side opening and a partially detached top part 108. In the embodiment depicted in FIG. 12, the top of the magnets 112 secured in the cylindrical outer shell 102 is level with the top of the capsules 200 also secured in the cylindrical outer shell 102. This allows the removable cap 101, when secured to the cylindrical outer shell 102, to rotate horizontally to enable the side opening of the removable cap 101 to be positioned in front of a pump cap 104 of choice, or in between two pumps caps 104 to prevent dispense of liquid. When the removable cap 101 is rotated so that the side opening of the removable cap 101 is positioned in front of a pump cap 104 of choice, it is secured to said position by the magnetic attraction force, and allows for a convenient dispense of liquid by the user. The magnetic force attraction is strong enough so that the removable cap 101 stays in the desired position while a user presses down of the partly detached portion 108 of the removable cap 101 to dispense fluid. However, said magnetic force attraction is not strong enough to prevent a user from rotating the removable cap 101 horizontally, for example, to another secured position to enable dispense of liquid from another capsule 200, or to place the side opening of the removable cap 101 in between two pump caps 104 to prevent dispense of liquids. The magnets secured in the removable cap 101 and the cylindrical outer shell 102 provide axial locking and rotational alignment functionality between the removable cap 101 and the cylindrical outer shell 102. Said magnets hold the removable cap 101 and the cylindrical outer shell 102 axially together with magnetic attraction force, and also enable rotationally in a variety of selectable, pre-determined locations. The user must overcome the magnetic attraction force to cause any relative movement (axial or rotational) between the removable cap 101 and the cylindrical outer shell 102.
Magnets according to the present disclosure are any material or object that produces a magnetic field, or material that is magnetized and creates its own magnetic field. Magnets according to the present disclosure can be magnets, permanent magnets, or a ferromagnets. Unlimiting example for magnetic material which may be used according to the present disclosure include: ferrimagnetic materials (such as ferrites, magnetite and lodestone), ferromagnetic materials (such as iron, nickel, alnico, ferrite, cobalt and some alloys), paramagnetic substances (such as platinum and aluminum) and diamagnetic materials (such as carbon and copper). In preferred embodiments, the magnets are Neodymium Magnets.
