Abstract
A package for delivering a cleaning solution to a surface to be cleaned includes a sealed packet having a cleaning solution therein with at least a portion of an outer lower surface thereof having at least one weakened, frangible area that is adapted to rupture when a predetermined pressure is applied to an upper surface of the packet. The cleaning solution in the packet can be discharged through the frangible areas when the packet is positioned on a surface and the predetermined pressure is applied to the packet to rupture the packet.
Claims14
A package for delivering a cleaning solution to a surface to be cleaned comprising:
- a sealed packet having a cleaning solution therein and a lowermost surface configured to rest on the surface to be cleaned, with at least a portion of the lowermost surface having at least one weakened, frangible area that is adapted to rupture when a predetermined pressure is applied to an upper surface of the packet;
- wherein the cleaning solution in the packet is discharged directly to the surface to be cleaned through the at least one frangible area in the lowermost surface when the packet is positioned on the surface to be cleaned and the predetermined pressure is applied to the packet to rupture the packet;
- wherein the packet has an absorbent material, the sealed packet comprises a pocket for receiving the absorbent material, the lowermost surface extends around a perimeter of the pocket, and multiple frangible areas are located in the lowermost surface around the perimeter of the pocket.
A package for delivering a cleaning solution to a surface to be cleaned comprising:
- a sealed packet having a cleaning solution therein and a lowermost surface configured to rest on the surface to be cleaned, with at least a portion of the lowermost surface having at least one weakened, frangible area that is adapted to rupture when a predetermined pressure is applied to an upper surface of the packet;
- wherein the cleaning solution in the packet is discharged directly to the surface to be cleaned through the at least one frangible area in the lowermost surface when the packet is positioned on the surface to be cleaned and the predetermined pressure is applied to the packet to rupture the packet;
- wherein the packet has an opening and a cover for resealably closing the opening;
- and
- wherein the cover has at least one downwardly extending hollow projection for dispensing the cleaning solution from the packet to the surface to be cleaned.
A package for delivering a cleaning solution to a surface to be cleaned comprising:
- a sealed packet defining a deformable fluid chamber having a bottom wall configured to rest on the surface to be cleaned and comprising a pocket, wherein the bottom wall extends around a perimeter of the pocket;
- a cleaning solution within the deformable fluid chamber;
- and
- an absorbent material received by the pocket;
- multiple frangible areas located in the bottom wall around the perimeter of the pocket, wherein at least one of the frangible areas is adapted to rupture when a predetermined pressure is applied to the packet;
- wherein the cleaning solution is discharged from the fluid chamber directly to the surface to be cleaned through the at least one frangible area in the bottom wall when the packet is positioned on the surface to be cleaned and the predetermined pressure is applied to the packet to rupture the packet.
