- valve means comprising a one-way check valve mounted between the storage chamber and the pump chamber to permit operation of the foot pump means, there being an air means to permit the drawing of air into the storage chamber as liquid is being pumped out of the storage chamber by use of the foot pump means.
- a container apparatus having a container housing and a bellows foot pump means for pumping liquid connected to the container housing.
- the container housing has a storage chamber for storing liquid and an opening through which liquid is added into the storage chamber.
- the bellows foot pump means has a chamber wall defining a pump chamber with a pump chamber entrance opening and a pump chamber exit opening.
- the container housing has an exit opening in fluid communication with the pump chamber entrance opening to permit liquid in the storage chamber to be drawn and pumped into the pump chamber through the pump chamber entrance opening and out of the pump chamber through the pump chamber exit opening by operation of the bellow foot pump means.
- a valve means comprising a one-way check valve mounted between the storage chamber and the pump chamber to permit operation of the bellow foot pump means, there being an air means to permit the drawing of air into the storage chamber as liquid is being pumped out of the storage chamber by use of the bellow foot pump means.
- the foot pump apparatus has a coupling means for mounting the foot pump means to a container to be in fluid communication to the chamber of a container to permit the pumping of liquid from the container into the housing through the entrance opening and pump chamber and out the exit opening.
- a valve means comprising a one-way check valve mounted to the foot pump means to regulate the inflow of liquid during use.
- a bellows foot pump apparatus comprising: a bellows foot pump means mountable to a container for drawing and pumping liquid from the container, whereby the bellows foot pump means has a housing with an entrance opening for receiving liquid, a pump chamber, and an exit opening through which liquid is dispensed.
- the bellows foot pump apparatus has a coupling means for mounting the bellows foot pump means to a container to be in fluid communication to the chamber of a container to permit the pumping of liquid from the container into the housing through the entrance opening and pump chamber and out the exit opening.
- There is a valve means comprising a one-way check valve mounted to the bellows foot pump means to regulate the inflow of liquid for pumping during use.
- Figure 1 is a perspective illustration of a first embodiment of this invention showing the container having both the housing and the foot pump means attached to the housing;
- Figure 2 is a cross section of the embodiment shown in Figure 1, illustrating a preferred configuration of check valves utilized to control flow of liquid from the housing chamber and through the foot pump;
- Figure 3 is a cross section of an alternative embodiment to that shown in Figures 1 and 2, whereby an air check valve is mounted within the foot pump, in combination with the other check valves, to ensure that air is drawn into the container housing when liquid is drawn out, during use;
- Figures 4a, 4b and 4c are illustrations of showing the valve member of Figure 3 having three check valves, including a cross section view (Figure 4a) and two perspective views ( Figures 4b and 4c);
- Figure 5 is a sectional view showing how, in the preferred embodiment, the pump can be designed to permit removal and replacement of a section of the pump with the upper member of the pump being shown as disengaged from the base member of the pump;
- Figure 6 is a sectional view showing a different pump design than that shown in Figure 5.
- Figure 7 illustrates a foot pump, made in accordance with this invention, that is attachable to a conventional liquid container.
- Figure 8 is a perspective view showing the pump of Figure 7 mounted to a conventional container.
- the container 8 for storing and dispensing liquid, such as gasoline.
- the container 8 includes a lift handle 10 for lifting and an extended towing handle 12 for tilting and pulling the container along the ground using the wheels 14.
- the container 8 comprises a housing 16 within which there is a storage chamber 18 for storing liquid 20.
- the housing 16 has an opening at 22, covered by a threadedly secured cap 24.
- the cap includes a check valve 25, located at its top, which permits air to be drawn into the housing 16 when liquid is drawn out of the housing 16 by the pump as described below.
- Liquid 20 is first added into the storage chamber 18 through opening 22 after cap 24 is removed. Cap 24 is then remounted over opening 22 for storage and transport. This manner of filling the container 8 is standard.
- the container further comprises a foot pump, which in the preferred embodiment is a bellows foot pump, generally referred to by the numeral 26.
- a foot pump which in the preferred embodiment is a bellows foot pump, generally referred to by the numeral 26.
- foot pumps other than bellows foot pumps, such as, for instance, a simple resilient single chamber container, which collapses on downward pressure and reasserts its shape after the release of downward pressure, could also be used advantageously.
- the bellows foot pump 26 includes a base member 28 with a curved wall that is circular in cross section, and an upper bellows member, referred generally by the numeral 30, having a resiliently collapsible side wall 32, circular in cross section, and a flat top wall 34.
- Circular is the preferred embodiment but alternate design shapes would also be suitable.
- the upper bellows member 30 is integrally formed with the base member 28 to create a pump chamber 40 and as illustrated in Figure 5, the upper bellows member 30 is threadedly mountable onto the base member 28 using complementary threaded surfaces 36, 38 to create a pump chamber 40.
- the bellows pump is connected to the container housing via conduit member 33, which in the preferred embodiments of 1 to 5 are integrally connected to the bellows pump base member 28.
- the bellows foot pump 26 is also formed with an exit opening 42 through which liquid can be pumped and after it is drawn through the entrance opening 41 into the bellows chamber 40 from the storage chamber 18, via the passageway of the conduit member 33, during use by repeatedly pressing downwardly on the flat top wall 34 with one's foot and then raising one's foot to let the resilience of the top member 30 reassert its shape.
- two check valves 44, 45 are mounted within the pump means. These check valves ensure that the direction of the flow of the liquid is maintained from the container housing through the pump, and ensure that the pump chamber is properly pressured to achieve this end.
- Check valve 25, previously described ensures that air is introduced into the container housing 16 as any liquid is removed via the pump.
- Check valves 44, 45 are standard one-way valves used in pumping operations for liquids and are readily available off of the shelf. The choice of which valve to use is a matter of simple choice.
- the check valve 44 ensures that liquid 20 will not flow back into the storage chamber 18 of the container 8 from the bellows chamber 40 once the liquid has passed from the container housing 16 into the bellows pump 26.
- the check valve 44 ensures that liquid 20 will not flow back into the storage chamber 18 of the container 8 from the bellows chamber 40 once the liquid has passed from the container housing 16 into the bellows pump 26.
- check valve 44 is forced closed to prevent passage of liquid from the bellows pump back into the container housing.
- check valve 44 is open and the bellows chamber 40 can refill. Liquid is thereby pumped from the container.
- a delivery hose 46 with a delivery nozzle 48 is threadedly attached the bellows pump 26 at the opening 42 with barbed outlet member 49 so that the user can direct delivery of the liquid that has so easily been pumped from the container.
- the connection of the dispensing hose to the foot pump is achieved, in the embodiments shown in figures 1 and 2, by means of a barbed outlet member 49.
- the check valve 45 ensures that liquid once pumped out of the pump chamber does not flow back into the pump chamber. As will be apparent, this particular check valve 45 can be positioned further away from the pump, for instance, within the delivery hose 46 or nozzle 48. The positioning of the check valve 45, providing it is placed to achieve the aforesaid function, is a choice of design. Similarly, a choice of design is also where the check valve 44 is disposed. The check valve 44 could be disposed within the conduit member 33, the container housing 16 or the bellows pump 30.
- valve control means comprising a valve member, generally referred to by the number 70, which extends through the pump from its outlet opening 42 to its inlet opening 41.
- This valve member 70 provides three subsidiary functions to its main function of ensuring that the liquid will flow, during use, in only one direction, namely from the container housing into the dispensing tube.
- the three subsiduary functions are i) that liquid will flow only in the direction through opening 41 from the container housing 16 into the pump chamber 40, whereby there is a check valve 72 that opens when the resilience of the pump reasserts itself to draw liquid into the pump chamber 40 and that closes when downward pressure is exerted by the user with his foot onto the pump; ii) that liquid will flow in the direction only through opening 42 from the pump chamber 40 into the dispensing hose 46, whereby there is a check valve 74 that opens when downward pressure is exerted by the user onto the pump and that closes when the resilience of the pump reasserts the shape of the pump to re- expand the volume of the chamber after downward pressure by the user is released; and iii) an air valve 76 with an air-way tube 78 which opens to draw air from the outside through the tube and into the passageway of conduit member 33 when liquid is being drawn into the pump chamber and which closes to prevent liquid from leaking through the valve into the atmosphere when the pump is not being used.
- an subsidiary air tube 80 is attached to the air-way tube 78 to more easily introduce the air into the storage chamber 18 proper. It will be apparent that when this configuration of a pump valve member is being used no air valve, such as that shown at 25, need be attached to the container.
- the check valve 74 ensures that liquid once pumped out of the pump chamber does not flow back into the pump chamber. As will be apparent, this particular check valve 74 can be positioned further away from the pump, for instance, within the delivery hose 46 or nozzle 48. The positioning of the check valve 74, providing it is placed to achieve the aforesaid function, is a choice of design.
- the bellows pump is shown having an upper bellows member, here numbered 50, and a lower bellows base member, here numbered 52.
- a top wall seating surface 54 is formed to descend downwardly and inwardly from the side wall of the base member 52.
- a threaded surface 58 is formed to define the opening 60.
- the upper bellows member 50 has a complimentary inner wall 62 that rests against the top wall seating surface 54 when the threaded member 70 is threadedly secured within the opening 60 against threaded surface 58. It will be apparent that the upper bellows member 50 is hollow to permit resilience and suction, and so that the bellows pump of this embodiment can pump on the same general principle of operation as the bellows pump of the embodiments previously described.
- the bellows foot pump is ready for use when the container 8 is in an upright position. This has the advantage of the user being able to remove liquid from the container without tilting the container or moving it.
- the bellows pump can be formed completely separate from the container and mounted, providing the threading is complementary, directly to a standard liquid container. This is shown in Figure 8, with the pump shown in figure 7.
- bellows foot pump 60 mountable to a container 8 for storing and dispensing liquid.
- the bellows foot pump 60 has a coupling means 22, comprising an 0-ring (not shown) for sealing, and an outer tightening coupling ring 62, which in the preferred embodiment would be the existing container cap that threadedly secures about the threaded opening already existing on the can.
- the liquid can be dispensed by tilting the can so that the bellows foot pump 60 is in the operative position as shown in Figure 6, and liquid can be pumped, using the afore-described manner for the previous embodiments.
- the bellows foot pump 60 can be provided with an air means to meet that need.
- the coupling means 22 in the assembly shown in figure 7 could include an air means opening 23 which could also house a check valve which allow or regulate air airflow into the container 8 as fluid is being pumped out.
- the bellows pump can be made integrally to the container housing or as separably mountable.
- the advantage of making the bellows pump separately mountable is that the pump can be replaced without replacing the whole configuration.
