  • Hand or manually operated pesticidal dusters operated by an air pump are presently in wide use in which the pump barrel or cylinder is provided with a chamber supplied by the home owner or operator with a quantity of a pesticidal dust and refilled by the operator when the supply is exhausted, or to the pump is affixed a dust container which is refilled from another container by the operator when the supply is exhausted.
  • home owners or operators In view of the poisonous character of many of the dusts now being used, home owners or operators, usually inexperienced, must exercise considerable caution in refilling these barrels or containers from an available supply. I
  • the operator purchases a filled and sealed receptacle supplied by the manufacturer of the pesticidal dust with a specified quantity thereof and upon removing its cap the hand pump is quickly and easily attached to the receptacle and the assembled unit is then ready for the dusting operation.
  • the present dust receptacle is disposed of when empty and a similar filled receptacle as purchased from a supplier is quickly and easily assembled for use.
  • a discharge tube having a discharge port disposed at the upper side of the receptacle when dusting.
  • Another important object of the present invention is the provision of a novel packaged dust receptacle available for purchase separately from a supplier of pesticidal dusts and which receptacle is readily removed and disposed of when the supply of dust has been exhausted, the hand pump and receptacle being so constructed that the pump is Quickly and easily attached to a receptacle and the receptacle readily removed for disposal and replacement by a new receptacle.
  • the home owner, truck gardener or other operator can readily follow the manufacturers directions as to a given area capableof being eflectively dusted by a prescribed quantity of the dust.
  • FIGURE 1 is a top plan view of the novel combination air pump and dust receptacle assembled and ready for use.
  • FIG. 2 is a fragmentary enlarged view of the assembly, the view being taken approximately on the line 22 of FIG. 1 and viewed in the direction of the arrows.
  • FIG. 3 is a view in vertical cross section taken on the line 3-3 of FIG. 2. and viewed in the direction of the arrows, the view being on a reduced scale from that of FIG. 2.
  • the novel illustrative embodiment of the combined pump and dust receptacle comprises an air pump 10 and a relatively large receptacle 11 containing a quantity of a pesticidal dust or powder 12.
  • This filled receptacle is purchased separately but designed for ready attachment to and detachment from the discharge end of the pump barrel 13.
  • the novel air pump 10 comprises the pump barrel or cylinder 13 in which a plunger or piston 14 is affixed to one end of a piston rod 15 mounted for sliding or reciprocatory movement in an aligned opening in an end closure 16 and upon the piston rod is mounted a washer 17.
  • the end closure 16 may be of wood or any desired composition.
  • the plunger preferably comprises a leather cup 18 mounted in operative position on the inner end of the piston rod 15 between a washer 19 abutting an enlargement 20 on the extreme end of the rod and a larger washer or metal plate 21 seating against and in contact with substantially the entire surface area of the base of the leather cup 18 and between it and embossments 22 on the piston rod, whereby the leather cup 18 is securely retained in operative position on the inner end of the piston rod 15.
  • the forward end 23 of the pump barrel 12 is of enlarged diameter and joined by a tapered portion 24 with the remainder of the barrel which is of uniform diameter.
  • This enlarged tapered portion 24 permits the cup leather 18 to be expanded thereat when reaching the end of its forward stroke with the forward stroke of the piston rod being limited by the washer 17 and embossments 25 on the piston rod 14 adapted to abut the washer 17.
  • a hole 26 in the rear of the barrel adjacent the end closure 16 provides an opening to the atmosphere whereby on the rearward or suction stroke of the pump plunger operated by withdrawing or rearward pull on the handle 27, air is drawn into the barrel 13 and flows past the leather cup 18 into the pump chamber in front of the plunger, and on the forward or pressure stroke this air under pressure is forced outwardly through an end cap assembly 28 at the forward end of the pump barrel 13.
  • the end cap assembly 28 comprises a cup part 29 securely affixed or spun onto the forward enlarged end 23 of the pump barrel 13 and anchored thereto by an over.- lapping and rearwardly bent flange at 30 with the anchored part having a tubular neck portion 31 having an internal thread and a transverse, dished partition 32 having plural spaced apertures at 33 for the passage of air under pressure from the interior or air chamber of the barrel 13 upon the forward or pressure stroke.
  • Disposed forwardly or outwardly of the partition 32 but within the cup part 29 of the end cap assembly 28 is a convex or domed part 34 having a peripheral flange 35 abutting an annular flat surface on the .end cap 28.
  • a sealing washer 36 seats against the peripheral flange 35.
  • the domed part 34 has a centrally arranged discharge opening 37 through which the air under pressure entering the space 38 from the pump barrel is discharged.
  • ber preferably of natural or compounded synthetic rubber, which is anchored centrally in position by a rivet or other anchoring means 40 aflixed to the partition 32 and of a size or diameter to cover the spaced apertures 33. Due to the flexibility of the one-way valve member 39, it opens upon the down or forward stroke and automatically closes on the back or suction stroke whereby to prevent any backflow of dust 12 into the pump from the receptacle 11.
  • the dust receptacle 11 comprises a container of a size for economically packaging a pesticidal or insecticidal dust by the manufacturer of such products.
  • the home owner or user having purchased one of the novel filled receptacles of the present invention is merely required to unscrew and remove the cap (not shown) from the threaded neck 41 opening into the receptacle and attach thereto the internally threaded end 31 of the pump barrel 13 with the sealing washer 36 effecting sealing contact therebetween.
  • a discharge tube 42 open at one end 43 through the base 44 of the receptacle to the atmosphere and its other end stopping short of the other end 45 of the receptacle for passage and discharge of the dust particles under air pressure generated by the pump.
  • This openended discharge tube '42 is disposed eccentrically in the receptacle and, when the assembled duster is operated, the open end 43 thereof is disposed uppermost as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. This open end 43 is retained closed by a piece of adhesive or by an suitable sealing means until ready for use.
  • the size or area of the discharge port or opening 37 in the domed plate 34 is somewhat less than the aggregate of the areas of the apertures 33 in the partition 32 for most effective operation.
  • the present invention comprehends the combination of a novel air pump for detachable mounting upon a novel dust receptacle for disseminating pesticidal, insecticidal or other dust contained in said receptacle.
  • the pump is intended for repeated use while the novel receptacle when emptied of its contents is thrown away and the user purchases another similar dust receptacle for attachment to the pump. In this manner, the user need not transfer the dust from one container to another or to the dust chamber of the barrel, so that any danger involved in the use of pesticidal dust is greatly minimized.
