Abstract
An automatic fluid soap dispensing apparatus and method comprising a dispensing spout, housing operatively connected to the dispensing spout and the housing adapted to removably receive and hold a fluid soap containing reservoir module in communication with the dispensing spout. The reservoir module has a central axis, and includes a pump mechanism and delivery tube mounted on the reservoir module in alignment with the central axis. The dispensing tube is adapted to move in the dispensing spout when the pump mechanism is actuated.
Claims11
In a fluid dispensing system, a mounting clip adapted to couple a motor housing and support assembly to a reservoir module, the mounting clip comprising:
- a flange;
- a lower plate defining a perimeter about an axis and having a plurality of protuberances that extend from the lower plate perimeter towards the axis, wherein two adjacent protuberances define a space;
- and
- a wall disposed between the flange and the lower plate to define a channel.
In a fluid dispensing system, a mounting clip adapted to couple a motor housing and support assembly to a reservoir module, the mounting clip comprising:
- a flange;
- a lower plate defining a substantially continuous perimeter about an axis and having a plurality of alternating protrusions and indentations that extend from the lower plate perimeter towards the axis;
- and
- a wall disposed between the flange and the lower plate to define a channel.
In a fluid dispensing system comprising:
- a motor housing;
- a support assembly;
- a reservoir module;
- and
- a mounting clip, said mounting clip comprising a flange, a lower plate defining a perimeter having an axis therethrough, said perimeter having a plurality of alternating protrusions and grooves, and a wall disposed between the flange and the lower plate to define a channel;
- wherein said mounting clip removably affixes said motor housing and support assembly to said reservoir module.
