INVEN TOR. Robert W. Flynn 3,679,044 LACQUER DISPENSER This invention relates to a lacquer dispenser. More specifically, the invention relates to a dispenser for a lacquer under pressure of the type used by a lady to retain her hair in a combed position.
Spray lacquers of various types have heretofore been known and are available in various types of dispensers. Primarily these dispensers consist of a pressurized can or container 6 to 8 inches in height which are used in the home. The containers are too bulky and cumbersome to be packed in the purse for an evening or a short trip. Furthermore, these devices are relatively easily discharged which makes their transportation and use from a purse, suitcase, or the like extremely undesirable.
In accordance with the present invention a pressure lacquer dispenser has been provided which can be maintained in restrooms, beauty parlors, and the like for con venient use. The dispenser preferably is housed in a mirrored cabinet having one or more lacquer containers therein and connected to a hose or the like which extends exteriorally of the cabinet to be easily used by a lady. An atomizing valve is provided at the end of the hose for more efiicient use. A coin operated valve is preferably included in the construction so that the device can be installed and used in some installations without having an attendant present at all times.
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide a new and improved dispenser.
Another object of the invention is to provide a new dispenser designed especially for lacquer under pressure.
pressure lacquer dispenser which includes a mirror so that the user can observe her hair at the same time.
Another object of the invention is to provide a new and improved coin operated dispenser.
A still further object invention will become apparent from the following de- FIG. 1 is an isometric View of the device.
FIG. 2 is an enlarged front view of the device with the front removed. a
FIG. 3 is a plan view of the coin operated valve.
FIG. 4 is a view taken on the line 44 of FIG. 3.
' FIG. 5 is a cross section view taken through the coupling member and the hoses at the cabinet.
FIG. 6 is a cross section view taken through the hoses and the atmoizing valve at the end remote from the cabinet.
The following is a discussion and description of a preferred specific embodiment of the new lacquer dispenser of the invention, such being made with reference to the drawings whereon the same reference numerals are used to indicate the same or similar parts and/or structure. It is to be understood that such discussion and description is not to unduly limit the scope of the invention.
Referring now to the drawings in detail, the lacquer dispenser of the invention is shown generally at it) and preferably consists of a hollow cabinet 12 having a mirror 14 on the front face. The front face having the mirror 14 thereon can be hinged at 16 for easy access to the in- 3,679,944 Patented Feb. 26, 1&63
terior thereof. Suitable common lock means (not shown) can be provided to prevent access to the interior of the cabinet except by authorized personnel.
The preferred construction of the interior of the cab inet is best seen in FIG. 2. Che or more containers 18 are mounted in the interior of the cabinet in any suitable manner. The containers preferably are of the type designed to receive and retain for dispensing a liquid under pressure, preferably a lacquer, which is in admixture with a dissolved inert gas. These containers 18 are of a standard construction available on the open market which are designed for retaining the lacquer under a high pressure, and in most instances, have curved structural surfaces for best efiiciency in retaining the pressurized liquid.
An elongated tubular header 2.0 is also mounted within the cabinet in any suitable manner and is in fluid communication with the containers 18 through a series of valves and conduits. These include a valve 22 in the outlet of each of the containers 18 and a valve 24 in each of the inlet conduits 26 of the header 2d. Coupling members 28 have been provided between the header inlets 26 and the associated valve 24 and the Valve 22 in the outlet of the containers 13. As will be readily apparent from the foregoing description, each of the containers 18 can be placed in fluid communication with the header 20 by opening the valves 22 and 24-. 'When it is desired to remove one of the containers 18, or operate the device with fewer containers than the number of inlet conduits 26 on the header 20 it is merely necessary to close the valves 24 and 22 and remove the container 18 from the valve 22 or coupling means 28. This is of major importance in a commercial application since the same basic construction can be provided for use in both large and small volume locations without any alteration of the equipment. Also, by providing for a plurality of containers 18, each of the containers can be completely emptied before it is necessary to replace it, and further more the device need vending company.
The cabinet can be secured to a Wall or other similar support by providing enlarged holes 39 in the back of the cabinet and screws 32 or the like on the wall or supporting structure which project through the holes 39. A slot 34 can intersect the holes 3d at the top side thereof to'receive' the holder screw 32 and thus prevent removal of the cabinet except by lifting the entire unit and allowing the screw 32 to pass through the holeor opening 30. Other securing means can, of course, be uSed' to mount the device.
7 A coupling member 4% is threadedly secured to oneside or end of the cabinet 12 and extends through the cabinet wall. Locking nut members 44 and 46 can be threadedly secured to the coupling member 44} on the outside and inside of the cabinet 12, respectively, to positively locate the coupling member 40 and prevent access to the working parts of the device by vandals.
A valve 50, preferably of the coin operated slide valve type, is included with the device. The valve 50 is threadedly mounted on the coupling 40 and the header 2i) and is operable to close the header 2%. The coin operated valve can be any of a number of types presently available. The valve illustrated, as best shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, includes a mounting block 52 which threadedly receives the header 2t} and the coupling member 40. A central opening 54. passes through the block 52 and joins the header 20 to the coupling member 4% when the valve is open. A slot 56 passes through the major length of the block 52 as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 and is adapted to tightly receive in sliding relation the forward end of a slide 58 to close the opening 54. The forward endonly be periodically serviced by a proximately the same size as the opening 54 in the block 52, and which is aligned with the opening 54 when the valveis placed in the open position. The other end of the slide member 58 is in a plane approximately 90 degrees to the plane of the forward end, and a coin receiving hole or slot 62 is provided therein. The slide meniher 58 terminates in an. upwardly extending flange 64 which" is used to move the slide in the usual manner. The slide membe riSS moves along and is guided by a rigid plate 66 which is secured to the front of th e cabinet 12' The inner end of the plate 66 has an opening 68" therein through which coins can drop into a suitable receptacle, not shown, inside the cabinet. A spiral spring 70, or other suitable means, is mounted between flanges on the, slide member 58 and the rigid plate 66 to continually urge the: slide member 58 into the extended position, closing. theopeuing 54.
y In operation, a coin is placed in acoin receiving hole 62' and the flange or lever 64 is pushed towards thecabir net. When the holes; 62 and 68 overlie each other the coin will drop therethrough into the receptacle, and at thesame time the hole 60 and opening 4 will be aligned,

mechanism to prevent-its operation by nslugs, defective coins,- and the like. The means are not shown since they constitutenopart of the inyention and are well known? inthe art. The slide valve 58 is most preferably in close proximity to coupling 40 and the preferably flexible tube therein as is described hereinafter.
and press it firmly against the end of the coupling menu- The other end of the hose 72 is secured to an atomizing dispensing valve 76. The hose is mounted in and closedby the atomizing dispensing valve 76.
' A second hose 78 is positioned within the hose 72 andpreferably extendsthe full length of the hose72 and into the coupling 40 to a point preferably closely adjacent the slide valve 50. The inner endv of hose 78 preferably iies in the bottom of coupling 40 for greatest ef-- ficiency. The other end of the hose 78 is also secured in the body of the dispensing valve 76. An annularsealing mern her 80 can be provided, where necessary, to seal theconnection ofthehoses' 72 and 78 to the atomizing valve. 76. A spacing plug .82 can be used to separate the hoses 72 and 78 in their mounting in the dispensing valve 76. The second hose 78 is similar in construction tothe hose 72 and can be made of like materials.
The dispensing valve 76 has a conduit 84 extending therethrough which preferably communicates with hose 78 only. The dispensin-g valve. 76 has a valve operator or eap 86mounted on the end thereof. The valve operator 86 ispreferably spring loaded by a spiral spring within the cap-like structure of the operator 86. When the top of the valve operator or cap 86 is depressed against the force of the spring 88, an opening 90 in the valve'operator 86 will be aligned with an opening 92 whichdeads to the conduit 84. The smaller hose or tube 78 ;is thus ,placed in communication with the atmosphere through the v conduit 84 and the openings 90 and 92. Obviously, when the pressure is relieved from the top of the valve operator 86'the spring 88 will place the openings 90;;and 92 out of alignment, which effectively closes thevaiv'e.
I 7 Of course, suitable, means vare provided with the coin operated slide valve;
A suitable clamp 94 can be secured to the side of the cabinet 12 to receive and retain the dispensing valve 76 and/ or the hoses during periods of non-use.
To prepare the device for use, one or more of the containers 18 are secured within the cabinet 12 to the coupling members 28 and the valves 22 and 24 are opened to place the interior of one of the containers 18 in fluid communication with the header 20. The containers 18 hold an admixture of a lacquer and an inert gas at relatively high pressure which forces the lacquer and gas therein through the valves 22 and 24.and coupling member 28 into the header 20. With the containers 18 thus in position the device is ready for use and the hinged front mirror 14 can be closed and locked in position. When one desires to use the device, it is then only necessary to insert a coin into the coin receiving slot 62 in the coin operated slide valve 50 which is then operated in a manner hereinbefore described. When the coin operated valveis open therheader 20" will be in fluid communication with the hoses .or tubes72 and 78 throughthe valve 50 and thecoupling meansAl). The length andsize of the hoses 72 and 78 are chosen so. that a predetermined quantity of the lacqueradmixed with the gas will be discharged into the hoses when the coin. operated slide valve is open. The valve 50zis then. closed and the lacquer onto her hair by depressing the valve operator or cap 86. Upon; depressing the valve operator 86 the lacquer-will be exhausted from both oft-hetubes or hoses 72 and 78 through the smaller hose 78. The use of the two hoses 72 and, 78.1nounted as described prevents'all the lacquer from being instantlyflashed from theatom izing valve 76 when-the cap 86 is depressed; Upon emptying of the first can 18, its vvalves22 and: 24 are closed for replacement of the can, while another can 18 is placed in communication with header 20.
While. the device. has been desoribedas having'acoin operated slide. valve between the: header and the hoses, it should be understood that other types of valves can be used therein. For example, in installations such as a beauty parlor and the like it would, of course, be undesirable to use a coin each. time'one desired to apply spray to the hair. The coin operated and slide valve is most useful in installations where the spraylacquer will be applied by the individual desiring it, and no attendant will then be necessary to operate the device or receive payment therefor. Also the atomizing dispensingvalve described is intended to be merely illustrative, and other types of atomizing valves can also be used.-
It will be evident to those skilled in the art, that vari-' ous other modifications of the invention can be made, or followed, in the light of this description and discus: sion, without departing from the spirit of the disclosure or the scopeof the claims.
While the invention has beendescrihed in connection with a preferred specific embodiment thereof, it will be understood that this description is intended to illustrate and not to limit the scope of the invention, which is defined in the claims.
