Abstract
A modular dispenser system is described that can enable users to carry and use items and liquids that can be used together in a convenient, cost effective, and portable manner. The system includes a body, a bottle that is removably secured to the body, and a cover removably engaged to the body. When the body, bottle, and cover are secured together, it may form a unitary object. In this way, a user can easily carry and store the system and its items and liquids simultaneously. The modular dispenser system provides versatility to a user by enabling the user to use the items and the liquids together or separately.
Claims13
A modular dispenser system, comprising:
- (a) a generally cylindrical body comprising:
- a platform including one or more walls defining a hole therein;
- a sidewall extending upwardly from the platform;
- a skirt extending downwardly from the platform and forming a recessed area, the skirt adapted to fit over a top portion of a bottle;
- and
- a generally circular opening formed at the top of the sidewall;
- and
- (b) a bottle removably securable to the body, the bottle comprising:
- a generally cylindrical top portion having a first diameter, the top portion comprising a mouth;
- a generally cylindrical bottom portion extending from the top portion and having a second diameter greater than the first diameter;
- and
- a sprayer removably attachable to the mouth of the top portion, wherein at least a part of the sprayer is adapted to be accepted by the hole of the platform of the body.
A modular dispenser system, comprising:
- (a) a generally cylindrical body comprising:
- a platform comprising:
- a hole formed therein;
- and
- one or more openings formed about the hole that are generally aligned with one or more mating protrusions;
- a sidewall extending upwardly from the platform;
- a skirt extending downwardly from the platform and forming a recessed area, the skirt adapted to fit over a top portion of a bottle;
- a generally circular opening formed at the top of the sidewall;
- and
- the one or more mating protrusions disposed circumferentially on an inner surface of the skirt within the recessed area;
- (b) the bottle removably securable to the body, the bottle comprising:
- a generally cylindrical top portion having a first diameter, the top portion comprising a mouth;
- a generally cylindrical bottom portion extending from the top portion and having a second diameter greater than the first diameter;
- a circumferential groove connecting the top portion and the bottom portion, wherein the groove is adapted to engage with the one or more mating protrusions of the body;
- and
- a sprayer removably attachable to the mouth of the top portion, wherein at least a part of the sprayer is adapted to be accepted by the hole of the platform of the body, and wherein the sprayer is further adapted to be used as a spindle when the body and the bottle are secured together;
- (c) a cover removably engageable with the opening of the body, the cover comprising:
- an openable lid having a flexible living hinge attached to the cover;
- and
- a dispensing feature having an aperture to hold a dry wipe;
- (d) a roll of dry wipes contained within the body and fitted over the sprayer;
- and
- (e) a liquid formulation contained within the bottle.
A modular dispenser system, comprising:
- (a) a generally cylindrical body comprising a first end and a second end, the body further comprising
- a platform canter-leverly extending radially inwardly from an inner surface of the body, the platform including one or more walls defining a hole therein that is coaxial with the cylindrical body, the platform positioned longitudinally along the body between the first end and the second end;
- a sidewall extending upwardly from the platform toward the first end, the sidewall including a circumferential nub positioned proximate the first end and extending outwardly from an outer surface of the body to receive and removably capture a dispenser closure;
- a skirt extending downwardly from the platform toward the second end and forming a recessed area;
- a pair of opposed, partial-circumferential protrusions positioned at the second end and extending radially inwardly from an inner surface of the skirt;
- and
- a generally circular opening formed at the first end and at the second end;
- and
- (b) a bottle removably securable to the body, the bottle comprising
- a generally cylindrical top portion having a first diameter and a circumferential groove for engaging with the opposed, partial-circumferential protrusions for removably securing the bottle to the body, the top portion comprising a mouth;
- a generally cylindrical bottom portion extending from the top portion and having a second diameter greater than the first diameter;
- and
- a sprayer removably attachable to the mouth of the top portion, wherein at least a part of the sprayer is adapted to be accepted by the hole of the platform of the body.
