Disclosed are can taps for dispensing fluids from containers. The can tap has a housing with an inlet and an outlet, and a pin. The pin has a flow portion in fluidic communication with the inlet and the outlet of the housing. The pin may have a blunt depressor capable of operating a valve on the container. The flow portion of the pin allows fluid to flow between the housing and the pin. The can tap may have a gasket comprising a material having a hardness that prevents deformation of the container.

Can tap

An adaptor including a lower fitting including a central axial opening including a pin valve, a lower travel stop, a lower crimp ring seating surface, an upper fitting including a male thread, a seating radius configured to conform with a curled lip of the aerosol can, an upper travel stop, configured to contact the lower travel stop during assembly, an upper crimp ring seating surface, a crimp ring configured to rest between the lower crimp ring seating surface and the upper crimp ring seating surface and configured to compressed in the axial direction while simultaneously expanding in the radial direction during installation.

Aerosol can adaptor

An automatic lint filter cleaning and lint collection system for a laundry dryer. The apparatus comprises a lint filter pivot chamber, a lint collection chamber, a lint filter housing pivotably mounted between the pivot chamber and collection chamber, a flange between the pivot chamber and collection chamber wherein the filter housing is biased into abutment with the flange, a lint collection container, an auger rotatably mounted within the collection chamber, and a drive assembly operably connected to the lint filter housing and auger. The drive assembly is operable to pivot the filter housing away from the flange and then to release the filter housing such that the filter housing forcibly returns into abutment with the flange and thereby causes the lint filter to release lint into the collection chamber. The drive assembly is operable to rotate the auger and thereby move lint from the collection chamber into the collection container.
