Fluid safety dispenser

Abstract

A fluid safety dispenser system having a fluid storage container keyed to a fluid dispenser. The container having a valve body positionable in the opening of the container, the valve body having a plug member biased to allow fluid passage through the opening of the container when in a displaced position and to eliminate fluid passage through the opening of the container when the plug member is in a seated position. The keyed fluid dispenser assimilates a syringe and is releasably securable to the valve body for use in depressing the plug member by movement of a leaf spring when the keyed fluid dispenser is in position. The keyed fluid dispenser has indicia to provide for exact measurement and can be temporarily coupled to the container to provide ease of fluid transfer.

         8 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 6  wherein said plug element is dome shaped with at least one channel formed along an upper surface thereof, said dome shape sized to plug said aperture, said channel facilitating fluid flow when said plug element is displaced. 
     
     
         9 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 1  wherein said valve member includes a ratchet means for unidirectional attachment to the container. 
     
     
         10 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 1  wherein said fluid dispenser includes a longitudinal flute positioned along an outer surface of the receptacle insert and said aperture includes at least one tang constructed and arranged to receive said flute. 
     
     
         11 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 10  wherein said flute includes a lateral offset, said lateral offset receptive to said tang for temporarily securing said fluid dispenser to said valve body. 
     
     
         12 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 1  wherein said fluid dispenser includes a tang along an outer surface of the receptacle insert and at least one flute extending along the length of said aperture constructed and arranged to receive said tang. 
     
     
         13 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 12  wherein said tang can pass through said aperture for placement along a lower surface of said valve body, said placement of said tang along the lower surface allowing for temporary securement of said fluid dispenser to said valve body. 
     
     
         14 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 1  wherein an inner portion of said valve member is threaded for securement to a threaded container. 
     
     
         15 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 1  wherein said valve member is available to receive a cap. 
     
     
         16 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 15  wherein said lid is attached to said valve member by a living hinge. 
     
     
         17 . A fluid safety dispenser system comprising:
 a container having a bottom, a top, and a continuous side wall there between for storage of fluids, said top having an opening formed from an inner side wall to provide a passageway for the fluids stored therein and threads formed along an outer surface of said opening;   a valve body threadingly secured to said outer surface of said opening, said valve body having a centrally disposed aperture with at least one tang extending outwardly therefrom;   a plug member constructed and arranged to seal said aperture in said valve body;   a leaf spring for biasing said plug member against said aperture to prevent fluids stored in said container from removal; and   a fluid dispenser formed from a vessel having a syringe, said vessel including a receptacle insert for displacing said plug from said aperture and drawing fluids from said container, said fluid dispenser having a longitudinal flute positioned along an outer surface of said receptacle insert constructed and arranged to receive said tang.   
     
     
         18 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 7  wherein said fluid dispenser includes measurement indicia to indicate the amount of fluid drawn from said container. 
     
     
         19 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 7  wherein said valve body and said plug member are preassembled as an assembly, said assembly insertable into said opening and sealing the fluids held within the container. 
     
     
         20 . The fluid safety dispenser system as set forth in  claim 17  wherein said flute includes a lateral offset, said lateral offset receptive to said tang for temporarily securing said fluid dispenser to said valve body.
