Definitions
- This invention pertains to a device for use in effecting removal of garment stains.
- An object of the invention is to provide means for use in effecting removal of garment stains, e.g. in a restaurant or similar establishment, before the material causing the stain has had a chance to dry and "set".
- the present invention seeks to avoid these problems and provides a device for use in assisting removal of garment stains comprising a reservoir containing a supply of a supersaturated aqueous solution of carbon dioxide, characterised in that the reservoir is shaped and dimensioned so as to be capable of being concealed on the person, and by valve-nozzle means openable to deliver a portion of said solution under pressure from the reservoir for applying the solution to a stained portion of a garment.
- the shape and dimensions of the reservoir are not critical, so long as the device can be carried on the person, e.g., concealed in a pocket or a purse.
- the reservoir can be shaped and dimensioned to the approximate proportions of a conventional tube of lipstick, perfume atomizer, breath freshener cartridge or the like.
- the materials of construction of the reservoir are not critical and need only have the requisite strength and chemical stability to maintain the slightly acidic solution of carbon dioxide superatmospheric pressure, so as to maintain the carbon dioxide in the aqueous solution until it is released through the valve-nozzle.
- the substantially incompressible carbon dioxide solution fills only a portion of the reservoir and is ejected therefrom by the pressure of a compressible gas phase filling the remaining portion of the reservoir, whereas, in another embodiment, the supersaturated carbon dioxide solution substantially fills the entire reservoir and is either pumped therefrom under pressure or ejected therefrom by deforming the reservoir in the manner of the familiar "squeeze bottle".
- the supersaturated carbon dioxide solution can be specially prepared by simply dissolving carbon dioxide under pressure with the water carrier as is commonly carried out in drugstore soda fountains.
- the solution can be commercially obtained as ordinary club soda or the like, which optionally may contain additional beneficial ingredients such as sodium bicarbonate and citric acid.
- a supply of carbonated water 13 partially fills the interior of the reservoir 10 and a compressible gas, e.g., C0 2 , 14 fills the remaining interior of the reservoir 10, providing a motive force which ejects the carbonated water 13 under pressure through the dip tube 15 when the plunger portion 16 of the valve 12 is depressed in the direction of the arrow A against the action of the spring 17.
- the supersaturated carbon dioxide solution indicated by the dashed lines 18, is ejected through a flared nozzle 19 and is directed against the stained portion B of a fabric substrate 20 which carries food stain material 21.
- the wetted portion of the fabric substrate 20- is dabbed and lightly rubbed with any suitable absorbent material, such as a cloth or paper napkin, to remove the water and the food stain material 21 which is separated from the fabric 20. This procedure can be repeated if necessary to effect the complete removal of the staining material.
- the reservoir 31, in accordance with another embodiment of the invention, may be completely filled with the carbonated water solution 32 which is ejected under pressure through the dip tube 33 by means of a pump 34 actuated by a plunger 35.
- the carbonated water solution 41 can be ejected from a collapsible reservoir 42 by squeezing to eject the solution 41 through the dip tube 43, overcoming the pressure of the spring 44 on a flapper valve 45.
