AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention is about a dispenser for hand sanitizer powder that can be rotated between a position to receive the sanitizer powder from a container and a position to dispense it through an opening in a tray. The hand sanitizer powder is made up of 0.05% to 5% of an anti-microbial compound, 0.5% to 15% of fused silica, and water. The invention also provides an anti-microbial powder made of 0.05% to 5% of an anti-microbial compound, 0.5% to 15% of fusted silica, and water. The hand sanitizer powder helps to kill or prevent the growth of microbes on surfaces that come into contact with it.

Problems solved by technology

In dry environments, not retaining cleanliness can often pose a threat of infection through physical contact, as well as the spread of blood-born pathogens and other infectious agents.

example 1

[0030]The anti-microbial hand sanitizer powder was prepared using the following process. First, 94.9 grams of deionized water was placed in a commercially available blender at 25° C. Then, 0.10 grams of benzethonium chloride was added to the water. Benzethonium chloride is commercially available as LONZAGARD Benzethonium Chloride USP from Lonza, Inc. of Mapleton, Ill. LONZAGARD Benzethonium Chloride USP is also known by the chemical name Disobutylphenoxyethoxyethyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride monohydrate (C27H42C1NO2 H2O; CAS No. 121-54-0). The water and benzethonium chloride were mixed until the benzethonium chloride completely dissolved. Then, 5.00 grams of AEROSIL R812S was added to the blender. AEROSIL R812S is commercially available from EVONIK Industries of Parsippany, NJ and is also known by the chemical name silanamine,1,1,1-trimethyl-N-(trimethylsilyl)-, hydrolysis products with silica (CAS-No. 68909-20-6). The mixture was mixed in the blender for 1 to 5 minutes at high ...

Abstract

A dispenser for dispensing hand sanitizer powder includes a base, a container supported on the base and including the hand sanitizer powder therein, and a tray coupled to the base beneath the container. The tray includes an opening. The dispenser also includes a body at least partially positioned within the tray and rotatable about an axis. The body includes at least one compartment exposed to an outer periphery of the body. The body is rotatable between a first position, in which the compartment is in facing relationship with the container to receive the hand sanitizer powder therefrom, and a second position, in which the compartment is aligned the opening in the tray for dispensing the hand sanitizer powder through the opening.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority to co-pending U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 456,244 filed on Nov. 3, 2010, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to hand sanitizers, and more particularly to hand sanitizer dispensersBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]In dry environments, not retaining cleanliness can often pose a threat of infection through physical contact, as well as the spread of blood-born pathogens and other infectious agents. In such environments where water is scarce, it is desirable to save water for consumption rather than using it for acts of hygiene and conventional manners of sanitation (e.g., washing with water and anti-microbial soaps, etc.).SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0004]The present invention provides, in one aspect, a dispenser for dispensing hand sanitizer powder including a base, a container supported on the base and including t...
