Abstract:
A nozzle for dispensing a solution of molten hot melt and gas. Upon emerging from the nozzle, gas is released from the solution to form a foamed hot melt. The nozzle comprises a body having a liquid flow passage therein, which flow passage contains a restrictor at the upstream end and a diverter flow path at the downstream end.
Abstract:
A feeder for apparatus for ejecting a mixture of liquids, e.g. urethane foam, comprises a pair of swash plate proportioning pumps one individual to each of the liquids, e.g. resin and isocyanate, each proportioning pump being fed by a gear pump from a supply of the respective liquid. Seepage along the drive shafts of the isocyanate pumps is continuously removed by bathing them in a recirculating stream of flushing agent. The swash plate and gear pumps and flushing agent pump are all driven by a single motor from a common chain drive. The liquids are heated during passage through separate hoses to a common dispensing head or gun, by immersed coil electric resistance heaters extending lengthwise freely within the hoses. A novel control system is provided for the hose heater circuit, the adequacy of the liquid supply and other operating conditions.

Abstract:
Formulation and dispenser systems create dairy based toppings for beverages. The dispensers include a container, valve, and an actuator for the valve. The formulations include a liquid product and a propellant. The liquid product includes a certain percentage of milkfat provided, for example, by heavy cream, skim milk, nonfat dry milk, sweeteners, and an emulsifier. The propellant is nitrous oxide or nitrogen.
Abstract:
A foam dispenser with a pump mechanism that mixes a liquid with air to generate foam. The pump mechanism includes a first stage pump and a second stage pump. The first stage pump delivers the liquid and a first volume of the air through a first foam generator to generate a first foam. The second stage pump delivers the first foam and a second volume of the air through a second foam generator to generate a second foam.
Abstract:
A self-generated antimicrobial alcoholic foam prepared by combining an alcoholic pre-mix comprising at least 50 wt. % of a lower alcohol, based upon the total weight of the alcoholic pre-mix, at least one acidic component, and at least one waxy component; and an aqueous pre-mix comprising a carbonate. A dispenser and a two-part refill for a dispenser are also provided.
Abstract:
The invention pertains to a plastic spray gun nozzle having an orientable spray pattern achieved by rotational movement of the repositionable plastic nozzle.
Abstract:
A matter displacement and mixing system having a mixing chamber for material to enter, and a vortex aperture that directs air into the mixing chamber at either a high velocity for violent shearing or lower velocity for gentle mixing. This would depend on the shape of the vortex aperture, or the pressure.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing foamed molded bodies comprising the steps of A) providing a mold, and B) introducing a foam-forming reaction mixture into the mold under variable pressure of injection, wherein the method is characterized in that the foam-forming reaction mixture has a fiber time of ≧20 s to ≦60 s.
