Abstract
A portable water-mixture dispenser includes a housing having a manually-grippable handle, a container carried by the handle for containing a substance to be selectively mixed with the water when discharged from the housing outlet, and a control valve within a control chamber in a connecting passageway communicating with an inlet port of the container. The control valve is manually presettable to: (a) a first position to steer the water from the housing inlet directly to the housing outlet; (b) a second position to steer the water from the housing inlet to the container inlet port; or (c) a third position to block the flow of water from the housing inlet to both the container inlet port and the housing outlet.
Claims19
A portable water-mixture dispenser, comprising:
- a housing including a manually-grippable handle having a housing inlet connectable to a source of water, a housing outlet for discharging the water, and a connecting passageway connecting said inlet to said outlet;

- a control chamber in said connecting passageway communicating with said container inlet port;
- a control valve within said control chamber manually presettable to:
- (a) a first position to steer the water from the housing inlet directly to the housing outlet;
- (b) a second position to steer the water from the housing inlet to the container inlet port;
- or (c) a third position to block the flow of water from the housing inlet to both the container inlet port and the housing outlet;
- said handle being hollow and defining a major portion of said connecting passageway;
- said container being carried at one end of said handle and having a central axis substantially perpendicular to said handle;
