Reservoir fluid dispenser with control valve

An apparatus for applying a liquid to a surface comprising:

• an applicator;
• a body member, the applicator being secured to an end of the body member, the body member defining a reservoir for housing a fluid;
• a piston means for exerting a force on the fluid in the reservoir;
• and
• the body member including two channels, a first channel being in fluid communication with a channel in the applicator, a second channel being in fluid communication with an area outside the body member, the body member further including a valve for allowing fluid communication between the reservoir and either the first channel or second channel, said second channel includes a one-way valve between said valve and an aperture in fluid communication with the area outside the body member, and said body member includes means for deactivating said one-way valve.

An apparatus for applying a liquid to a surface comprising:

• an applicator;
• a body member, the applicator being secured to an end of the body member, the body member defining a reservoir for housing a fluid;
• a piston means for exerting a force on the fluid in the reservoir;
• and
• the body member includes two channels, a first channel being in fluid communication with a channel in the applicator, and a second channel terminating at an aperture in said body member, the body member further including a first valve means for effecting fluid communication between the first channel and reservoir or the second channel and reservoir, and a second valve for regulating the flow of liquid from the reservoir through the aperture in the body member, the second valve includes a one-way valve for preventing the flow of liquid from the reservoir through the aperture in the body member.

• and
• the body member includes two channels, a first channel being in fluid communication with a channel in the applicator, and a second channel terminating at an aperture on said body member, the body member including a spring biased valve, the spring biased valve being biased to a first position wherein fluid communication between the reservoir and first channel is established and fluid communication between the second channel and reservoir is prevented, preventing fluid flow through said aperture to an area outside the body member, the body member including means for causing said valve to move to a second position wherein fluid communication between the first channel and reservoir is prevented and fluid communication between the second channel and reservoir is established allowing fluid flow through said aperture to an area outside the body member.
