Spray head comprising cap member with rotatable/depressible valve held by frangible locking collar

Claim 2

A spray head for mixing pressurized water with a liquid held in a container with a seal to which the head is adapted to be attached and providing a spray thereof which comprises: (a) a cap member having fluid conduit means therein which respectively are adapted to communicate with (i) a source of the pressurized water; and (ii) an outlet for the spray; (b) a rotatable valve located in a bore between the fluid conduit means in the cap member which valve is adapted, upon rotation and movement towards the sealed container to unseal the container and also achieve intercommunication of the source of pressurized water and the outlet for the spray through the fluid conduit means in the cap member and an aligned fluid conduit means in the valve, which valve has additional conduit means connected to said aligned fluid conduit means, which also communicates with a fluid conduit for the liquid in the container to be contained in the spray, thereby allowing liquid to be aspirated into the valve from the container through a neck on the container to mix with the pressurized water and produce the spray when the fluid conduit means in the cap are intercommunicated with the aligned fluid conduit means in the valve; and (c) a frangible locking collar holding and preventing the valve from both rotation and movement towards the container except after the collar has been broken and removed from the valve.

Claim 3

A spray head as claimed in claim 1 wherein the locking collar lies on a surface of the cap member between the cap member and an upper portion of the rotatable valve.

Claim 4

A spray head as claimed in claim 1 wherein the valve has a sharpened point to allow for piercing of the seal over the container.

Claim 5

A spray head for mixing pressurized water with a liquid held in a sealed container to which the head is adapted to be attached and providing a spray thereof which comprises: (a) a cap member having fluid conduit means therein which respectively are adapted to communicate with (i) a source of the pressurized water; and (ii) an outlet for the spray; (b) a rotatable valve located in a bore between the fluid conduit means in the cap member which valve is adapted, upon rotation and movement towards said sealed container to unseal the container and also achieve intercommunication of the fluid conduit means in the cap member with an aligned fluid conduit means in the valve, which valve has additional conduit means, connected to said aligned fluid conduit means, which also communicates with a fluid conduit for the liquid in the container to be contained in the spray, thereby allowing liquid to be aspirated into the valve from the container through a neck on the container to mix with the pressurized water and produce the spray when the fluid conduit means in the cap are intercommunicated with the aligned fluid conduit means in the valve; (c) a frangible locking collar holding and preventing the valve from both rotation and movement towards the container except after the collar has been broken and removed from the valve; and (d) a hose adapter adjacent the fluid conduit means in the cap member leading to the source of pressurized water.

Claim 6

A spray head for mixing pressurized water with a liquid held in a sealed container to which the head is adapted to be attached and providing a spray thereof which comprises: (a) a cap member having fluid conduit means therein which respectively are adapted to communicate with (i) a source of the pressurized water; and (ii) an outlet for the spray; (b) a rotatable valve located in a bore between the fluid conduit means in the cap member which valve is adapted, upon rotation and movement towards said sealed container to unseal the container and also achieve intercommunication of the fluid conduit means in the cap member with an aligned fluid conduit means in the valve, which valve has additional conduit means, connected to said aligned fluid conduit means, which also communicates with a fluid conduit for the liquid in the container to be contained in the spray, thereby allowing liquid to be aspirated into the valve from the container through a neck on the container to mix with the pressurized water and produce the spray when the fluid conduit means in the cap are intercommunicated with the aligned fluid conduit means in the valve; (c) a frangible locking collar holding and preventing the valve from both rotation and movement towards the container except after the collar has been broken and removed from the valve; and (d) a hose adapter adjacent the fluid conduit means in the cap member leading to the source of pressurized water.

Claim 7

A spray head for mixing pressurized water with a liquid held in a sealed container to which the head is adapted to be attached and providing a spray thereof which comprises: (a) a cap member having fluid conduit means therein which respectively are adapted to communicate with (i) a source of the pressurized water; and (ii) an outlet for the spray; (b) a rotatable valve located in a bore between the fluid conduit means in the cap member which valve is adapted, upon rotation and movement towards said sealed container to unseal the container and also achieve intercommunication of the fluid conduit means in the cap member with an aligned fluid conduit means in the valve, which valve has additional conduit means, connected to said aligned fluid conduit means, which also communicates with a fluid conduit for the liquid in the container to be contained in the spray, thereby allowing liquid to be aspirated into the valve from the container through a neck on the container to mix with the pressurized water and produce the spray when the fluid conduit means in the cap are intercommunicated with the aligned fluid conduit means in the valve; and (c) a frangible locking collar holding and preventing the valve from both rotation and movement towards the container except after the collar has been broken and removed from the valve, the spray head having inwardly projecting flange means located in a portion of the bore in the cap member holding the rotatable valve which is adapted to cooperate with flange means carried by the valve to hold it for movement towards the container.

Claim 8

A spray head for mixing pressurized water with a liquid held in a sealed container to which the head is adapted to be attached and providing a spray thereof which comprises: (a) a cap member having fluid conduit means therein which respectively are adapted to communicate with (i) a source of the pressurized water; and (ii) an outlet for the spray; (b) a rotatable valve located in a bore between the fluid conduit means in the cap member which valve is adapted, upon rotation and movement towards said sealed container to unseal the container and also achieve intercommunication of the fluid conduit means in the cap member with an aligned fluid conduit means in the valve, which valve has additional conduit means, connected to said aligned fluid conduit means, which also communicates with a fluid conduit for the liquid in the container to be contained in the spray, thereby allowing liquid to be aspirated into the valve from the container through a neck on the container to mix with the pressurized water and produce the spray when the fluid conduit means in the cap are intercommunicated with the aligned fluid conduit means in the valve; and (c) a frangible locking collar holding and preventing the valve from both rotation and movement towards the container except after the collar has been broken and removed from the valve, the spray head having inwardly projecting flange means located in a portion of the bore in the cap member holding the rotatable valve which is adapted to cooperate with flange means carried by the valve to hold it for movement towards the container.
