Hand Sanitizer Dispensing Device

A method of dispensing sanitizing fluid from a hand sanitizing dispensing device comprising:

• providing a hand sanitizer device comprising:
• an outer shell;
• an inner pod received through an open front of said outer shell said inner pod having continuous top and bottom surfaces, continuous lateral side surfaces, a continuous front surface, and an open rear thereby forming an enclosure;
• a front cover placed over a front surface of said inner pod and said front cover having a rear edge that connects with a front edge of said outer shell;
• an actuator mounted to said hand sanitizer device;
• a pump communicating with said actuator, said pump having a nozzle opening for dispensing sanitizing fluid;
• and
• actuating said actuator to cause sanitizing fluid to be dispensed through said nozzle opening.

A method of dispensing sanitizing fluid from a hand sanitizing dispensing device mounted to an IoT transport device comprising:

• providing a hand sanitizer device comprising an actuator mounted to said hand sanitizer device;
• a pump communicating with said actuator, said pump having a nozzle opening for dispensing sanitizing fluid;
• providing a mobile communication device with an App that communicates with the IoT transport device;
• operating the App to make a command to use the dispensing device including executing a purchase transaction of the IoT transport device in which a user also selects to use the dispenser device;
• viewing a status of the dispensing device on a first user interface of the App to confirm the mobile communication device successfully communicated with the IoT device to operate the dispensing device, said first user interface including an instruction for a user to operate the dispensing device by unlocking the dispensing device;
• and
• actuating the actuator to cause sanitizing fluid to be dispensed through said nozzle opening, wherein said actuating step includes a second user interface indicating the dispensing device is unlocked and ready for use.

In combination, a hand sanitizing dispensing device for dispensing a quantity of fluid therefrom mounted to a transport, namely, a scooter, said combination comprising:

• a scooter;
• a hand sanitizing device mounted to a steering column of the scooter, said hand sanitizing device comprising:
• an outer shell having top and bottom surfaces, lateral side surfaces, a rear surface with a concave shape and an open front;
• an inner pod having continuous top and bottom surfaces, continuous lateral side surfaces, a continuous front surface, and an open rear thereby forming an enclosure, said inner pod received through said open front of said outer shell;
• a front cover having top and bottom surfaces, lateral side surfaces, a front surface, and an open rear, said front cover placed over said front surface of said inner pod and said front cover having a rear edge that connects with a front edge of said shell;
• an actuator mounted to said dispensing device;
• a pump communicating with said actuator and having a dispense opening for dispensing sanitizing fluid;
• and
• wherein said actuator communicates with said pump to dispense sanitizing fluid, by reciprocal motion of said lever causing said pump to withdraw the sanitizing fluid within a container holding the sanitizing fluid, and subsequently causing the sanitizing fluid to be dispensed through said opening.
