Orientation-independent fluid delivery apparatus

A system for dispensing a fluid, the system comprising:

• a housing;
• an inlet tube and an outlet tube fixed in the housing;
• a container containing a first fluid, wherein the container is disengageably attached to the housing such that the container receives a second fluid from the inlet tube and the first fluid exits the container through the outlet tube in response to the container's receiving of the second fluid;
• and
• a bladder attached to the inlet tube that receives the second fluid and expands inside the container.

A kit for dispensing fluid, the kit comprising:

• a cap having an inlet tube and an outlet tube;
• an inlet connector for connecting the inlet tube to a compressor;
• a bladder coupled to the inlet tube so that the bladder can receive a fluid from the inlet tube, wherein the bladder expands as it receives the fluid;
• an outlet tube for connecting the outlet tube to an object in need of repair;
• and
• a container of sealant that is couplable to the cap such that the sealant exits the container through the outlet tube as the bladder expands.

A fluid delivery device comprising:

• a container having a first chamber and a second chamber;
• a first fluid in the first chamber;
• a second fluid in the second chamber;
• a first inlet opening through which a third fluid enters the first chamber;
• a second inlet opening through which the third fluid enters the second chamber;
• a first bladder in the first chamber, wherein the first bladder is attached to the first inlet opening such that the first bladder receives the third fluid and expands as the third fluid enters the first chamber through the first inlet opening;
• a second bladder in the second chamber, wherein the second bladder is attached to the second inlet opening such that the second bladder receives the third fluid and expands as the third fluid enters the second chamber through the second inlet opening;
• a first outlet opening in the first chamber through which the first fluid exits the first chamber as the first bladder expands;
• and
• a second outlet opening in the second chamber through which the second fluid exits the second chamber as the second bladder expands.
