NON-CONTACT DISPENSERS AND RELATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240044930 titled 'NON-CONTACT DISPENSERS AND RELATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes non-contact dispensers and related systems and methods. The apparatus includes a pump with an inlet, an outlet, and a flow path connecting the inlet and the outlet. There are two displacement members that can be moved within the flow path to push volumes of fluid out of the outlet.

  • The apparatus is designed to dispense fluid without any physical contact, reducing the risk of contamination.
  • The pump has a flow path that allows fluid to flow from the inlet to the outlet.
  • The first displacement member can be moved to push a first volume of fluid out of the outlet.
  • The second displacement member can be moved to push a second volume of fluid out of the outlet.
  • The apparatus provides a controlled and precise dispensing of fluids.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Medical and healthcare settings where non-contact dispensing is crucial to prevent the spread of infections.
  • Food and beverage industry for hygienic dispensing of liquids.
  • Laboratory and research facilities for accurate and controlled dispensing of chemicals and reagents.
  • Public restrooms and other public spaces to provide touchless dispensing of soap, sanitizer, or other fluids.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Minimizes the risk of contamination and transmission of diseases by eliminating physical contact with the dispenser.
  • Provides a more hygienic and sanitary way of dispensing fluids compared to traditional dispensers.
  • Ensures accurate and controlled dispensing of fluids, reducing waste and improving efficiency.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved hygiene and reduced risk of infections in various settings.
  • Increased convenience and ease of use for users.
  • Enhanced accuracy and precision in dispensing fluids.
  • Cost savings due to reduced waste and improved efficiency.


Original Abstract Submitted

non-contact dispensers and related systems and methods are disclosed. in accordance with an implementation, an apparatus includes a pump having a body that defines an inlet, an outlet, and a flow path fluidly coupling the inlet and the outlet. a first displacement member is movable from a first position to a second position within the flow path to urge a first volume of the fluid out of the outlet. a second displacement member is movable from a first position to a second position within the flow path to urge a second volume of the fluid out of the outlet.
