Abstract
A squeeze bottle atomizer comprised of a tube retainer having a product outlet port in a conical shaped central post through which fluid is expelled from within the container. A plurality of air inlet ports are located adjacent the central post and allow air to be forced and sucked out of the container when squeezed as well as return and be sucked into the interior of the container when the container is released. The orifice cup has an annular mixing or turbulence chamber wherein the air and the fluid from within the container are mixed before being expelled out of the orifice cup through a discharge orifice. The axis of the product outlet port is coincident with the axis of the discharge orifice. A dip tube depends from the tube retainer and defines a path for the fluid from the bottom of the container to the annular mixing chamber.

6402054 - Airless squeeze bottle aspirator - Owned by Saint-Gobain Calmar Inc. (City of Industry, CA)

An airless squeeze bottle sprayer comprised of a tube retainer, an orifice cup and a closure. The tube retainer has a product outlet port, a post, and at least one tangential apertures through which fluid is expelled from within the container. The orifice cup has an annular mixing or turbulence chamber wherein the fluid from within the container is mixed up before being expelled out of the orifice cup through a discharge orifice. A dip tube depends from the tube retainer and defines a path for the fluid from the bottom of the container to the annular mixing chamber. When the container is squeezed, fluid is forced up through the dip tube into the mixing chamber and out of the container through the discharge orifice in the orifice cup. Any air that is introduced into the container and expelled out of the container is done so through the same path as the fluid, the sprayer lacks any distinct or separate air ports.
