Dispensers and methods for using the same
A dispenser includes a dispenser body and a base, wherein the base is attached to the dispenser body and a piston in the base is seated in a fluid passage of the dispenser body to define a dispensing chamber which may be filled by movement of the dispenser body relative to the base and emptied by the return of the dispenser body to the original position relative to the base.
1. A dispenser, comprising:
a dispenser body, comprising:
a bottom wall;
a side wall extending upwardly from the bottom wall defining a space on an interior thereof;
a fluid passage extending through the bottom wall; and
a cup spring extending downwardly from the bottom wall;
a base, comprising:
a stem;
a piston at an end of the stem; and
at least one cup spring rib;
a cap attached to an upper peripheral edge of the side wall of the dispenser body, wherein the cap encloses the space forming a reservoir.
2. The dispenser of claim 1 , further comprising a fluid disbursement flange on the base.
3. The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the fluid passage further comprises:
at least one fluid inlet opening in the space forming the reservoir; and
at least one fluid outlet opening.
4. The dispenser of claim 3 , further comprising a dispensing chamber defined by the stem, piston, and fluid passage.
5. The dispenser of claim 1 , further comprising a fluid contained in the reservoir.
6. The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the cup spring is made of an elastomeric material.
7. A dispenser, comprising:
a dispenser body, comprising:
a bottom wall;
a side wall extending upwardly from the bottom wall defining a space on an interior thereof; and
a fluid passage extending through the bottom wall;
a base, comprising:
a stem; and
a piston at an end of the stem;
a cap attached to an upper peripheral edge of the side wall of the dispenser body, wherein the cap encloses the space forming a reservoir; and
a spring between the base and the dispenser body.
8. The dispenser of claim 7 , wherein the fluid passage comprises:
at least one fluid inlet opening in the space forming the reservoir; and
at least one fluid outlet opening.
9. The dispenser of claim 8 , further comprising a dispensing chamber defined by the stem, piston, and fluid passage.
