Abstract
A mobile fluid dispenser is provided for dispensing fluids. The mobile fluid dispenser comprises a body defining a tank, a pump mounted to the body, and wheels mounted to the body. The body comprises a tank. The wheels are configured such that the mobile fluid dispenser can be rolled on flat surfaces without being tipped from an upright position. The pump may be either electrically powered or air powered, and may be reversible to allow the tank to be filled with fluid from a remote supply source. The tank may also be filled through a fill opening formed in the body or through quick coupler.
Claims19
A mobile fluid dispenser, comprising:
- a body defining a reservoir for containing a fluid wherein said body comprises an upper portion and a base;
- a pump mounted on the upper portion of the body and being adapted to pump fluid from the reservoir;
- a plurality of wheels connected to the body such that the body can be rolled across a flat surface without tipping the body;
- a hose having a first end connected to the pump for receiving fluid output by the pump and a second end connected to a nozzle which is adapted to meter fluid flow through the hose;
- and
- a tool tray adapted to receive and support the nozzle.

A mobile fluid dispenser, comprising:
- a body comprising an upper portion formed of a polymeric material and a base permanently connected to and adapted to support the upper portion, the upper portion defining a reservoir;
- a pump mounted on the upper portion of the body and being adapted to pump fluid from the reservoir,
- a plurality of wheels connected to the base of the body in a manner such that the body can be rolled across a flat surface without tipping the body, wherein two wheels are axel wheels located proximal to the front of the dispenser and at last one wheel is a castor wheel located proximal to the back of the dispenser;
- a hose having a first end connected to the pump for receiving fluid output by the pump and a second end;
- a fluid dispensing wand connected to the second end of the hose and being adapted to meter fluid flow from the pump and through the hose;
- and
- a tool tray removably connectable to the body portion at a position that overlies the reservoir.
