Spray bottle assembly

Abstract

An integrally formed and assembled spray bottle assembly for maintaining a constant open access of the fluid within the reservoir, to the spray pump, allowing uninterrupted and complete use of the spray bottle assembly and the product it contains. A vented retaining ring adjacent to the opening of an inner collapsible reservoir and protective outer enclosure forms a vented double walled reservoir. The vented retaining ring allows fluid communication between an interior and exterior of the outer enclosure. A trigger pump covers the vented retaining ring while allowing fluid communication there through. A conduit is disposed within the inner collapsible reservoir.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a Continuation-in-Part Application of, under 35 U.S.C. §121, and claims priority to, under 35 U.S.C. §121, U.S. Non-Provisional application Ser. No. 11 / 278,776, entitled Spray Bottle System, by C. Justin McFarland, filed on Apr. 5, 2006.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to spray bottle assemblies, more specifically a spray bottle assembly that maintains a constant access of fluid to the spray pump.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]In the related art, it has been known to use devices for spraying various liquids. Spray devices have been developed for applying cleaning products, pesticides, and aromatics to name a few. Such spray devices have allowed for convenience and portable spraying of many surfaces but have previously been limited in the direction and scope of their ability to spray surfaces from any direction without interruption. Certain spray...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0008]The present invention has been developed in response to the present state of the art, and in particular, in response to the problems and needs in the art that have not yet been fully solved by currently available spray bottle system. Accordingly, the present invention has been developed to provide a spray bottle system that allows nearly all of a spray bottle contents to be fully discharged during spraying, and which allows operation of the spray bottle over a very wide range of spray angles.

[0011]An advantage of the integrally formed and assembled spray bottle assembly is that it maintains a constant open access of the fluid within the reservoir, to the trigger pump, allowing uninterrupted and complete use of the spray bottle assembly and the product it contains regardless of the direction the bottle is oriented. Another advantage of the integrally formed and assembled spray bottle assembly is that the inner collapsible reservoir is resistant to tampering as being enclosed by the protective outer enclosure and the shroud of the trigger pump, when combined, without substantially restricting fluid communication there through via the vented retaining ring.

Problems solved by technology

Such spray devices have allowed for convenience and portable spraying of many surfaces but have previously been limited in the direction and scope of their ability to spray surfaces from any direction without interruption.

Certain spray devices containing an inner reservoir incorporate holes in the outer bottle exposing the inner reservoir to accidental or intentional tampering thus compromising the integrity of the spray device.

Further, contemporary spray devices have been unable to discharge completely the various products they contain.

The inventions referenced have numerous disadvantages including unreliability, limited spray direction and scope, sporadically interrupted spray flow, exposure to tampering, and inability to use the entire contents of the spray bottle.
