Filtered fluid pump dispenser with direct application mode

摘要

A filtered fluid pump spray dispenser and applicator assembly includes a container having a pump spray mechanism connected to a fluid feed tube immersed in a fluid to be dispensed. The open end of the fluid feed tube is covered by a porous and permeable filter, which filters particulate matter from the fluid during spray mode fluid dispensing. The pump mechanism and fluid feed tube may be removed, and fluid contained in the filter applied directly to a surface in direct application mode fluid dispensing.

1. A method of applying fluid to one or more surfaces from a container having a fluid feed tube interposed between a pump spray apparatus and a filter, comprising:
manually actuating the pump spray apparatus so as to draw fluid from the container through the filter and fluid feed tube whereby the filter is operative to filter particulate matter from fluid, at least partially atomize the fluid, and direct the resulting spray generally towards a surface; and removing the pump spray apparatus, fluid feed tube, and filter, and applying fluid to a surface in a controlled manner by direct contact of the filter to the surface.
