Abstract
A dispenser for mixing and dispensing a liquid chemical concentrate with a dilutent from a container. The dispenser includes two slideable eductors one of which is also rotatable. Both a high and low flow rate can be obtained with simultaneous adjustment of concentration of the chemical concentrate. The dispenser has a high degree of accuracy of the amount of dilution of the chemical concentrate as well as positive positioning of the high and low flow rate.
Claims18
A dispenser comprising:
- a body including a bore and an inlet fluidly coupled to the bore and adapted to be connected to a source of pressurized water;
- an eductor at least partially disposed in the bore and defining a fluid passage, the eductor slidable relative to the body to provide control of different flow rates of a mixture of water and chemical concentrate from the fluid passage to an outlet;
- a product passage connected between the container and the body to selectively provide chemical concentrate to the fluid passage;
- a nozzle fluidly coupled to the eductor;
- and
- a spout fluidly coupled to the nozzle and configured to discharge the water and chemical concentrate to a reservoir, the spout positioned below the nozzle and extending generally downward from the nozzle such that the mixture of water and chemical concentrate is configured to discharge in the generally downward direction.
A dispenser comprising:
- a body including a bore and an inlet fluidly coupled to the bore and adapted to be connected to a source of pressurized water;
- an eductor at least partially disposed in the bore and defining a fluid passage, the eductor configured to control one or more flow rates of water and chemical concentrate through an outlet of the dispenser;
- a product passage connected between the container and the body to selectively provide chemical concentrate to the fluid passage;
- a nozzle fluidly coupled to the eductor;
- and
- a spout fluidly coupled to the nozzle by a flexible tube and configured to discharge the water and chemical concentrate to a reservoir.
A dispenser comprising:

- an eductor at least partially disposed in the bore and defining a fluid passage, the eductor configured to control one or more flow rates of water and chemical concentrate through an outlet of the dispenser;
- a product passage connected between the container and the body to selectively provide chemical concentrate to the fluid passage;
- a container connector attachable to the container to couple the body to the container;
- a nozzle coupled to the body to receive fluid from the eductor and to change the direction of fluid flow toward a generally downward direction;
- and
- a spout fluidly coupled to the eductor and configured to discharge the water and chemical concentrate to a reservoir,
- wherein the spout is structurally supported by one or both of the body and the container connector to orient the spout in a generally downward direction.
