Peristaltic pump in motion. A peristaltic pump, also commonly known as a roller pump, is a type of positive displacement pump used for pumping a variety of fluids. The fluid is contained in a flexible tube fitted inside a circular pump casing. Most peristaltic pumps work through rotary motion, though linear peristaltic pumps have also been made.
A submersible pump (or electric submersible pump ( ESP) is a device which has a hermetically sealed motor close-coupled to the pump body. The whole assembly is submerged in the fluid to be pumped. The main advantage of this type of pump is that it prevents pump cavitation, a problem associated with a high elevation difference between the pump ...
A decorated, transparent plastic feeding bottle with blue cap and silicone teat, anti-leakage plate and screw mounting from 2007. A baby bottle, nursing bottle, or feeding bottle is a bottle with a teat (also called a nipple in the US) attached to it, which creates the ability to drink via suckling. It is typically used by infants and young ...
Pump dispenser. A pump dispenser is used on containers of liquids to help dispensing. They might be used on bottles, jars, or tubes. Often the contents are viscous liquids such as creams and lotions. [1] Some are metered to provide uniform usage. Some mix contents from two or more sources prior to dispensing.
Soda siphons. As early as 1790, the concept of an "aerosol" was introduced in France, with self-pressurized carbonated beverages. [1] The modern siphon was created in 1829, when two Frenchmen patented a hollow corkscrew which could be inserted into a soda bottle and, by use of a valve, allowed a portion of the contents to be dispensed while maintaining the pressure on the inside of the bottle ...
In a spray bottle, the dispensing is powered by the user's efforts, as opposed to the spray can, in which the user simply actuates a valve and product is dispensed under pressure. Several designs have been developed. [1] [2] [3] Some of the pumping mechanisms of spray bottles are similar to those of pump dispensers which are used for more ...
The parts are reusable, mass-produced sterile plastic, and can be produced by the same machines that make plastic soft-drink bottles and caps. A pressure bottle, restrictor and chamber requires more nursing attention than electronically controlled pumps. In the areas where these are used, nurses are often volunteers, or very inexpensive.
In a nod to the blue color, a cocktail called Aqua Velva is made with vodka, gin, lemon-lime, and blue curacao. [9] Among other things, this is discussed in the film Zodiac — The Killer's Trail as the favorite drink of author Robert Graysmith. [10] Gallery. Original Aqua Velva bottle from the 1930s.
