Abstract: A deterioration detecting apparatus for a purifying catalyst in an exhaust system of an engine (1). A first oxygen concentration sensor (17) is disposed upstream of the catalyst (14a). A second oxygen concentration sensor (18) is disposed downstream. An amount of oxygen flowing into the catalyst (14a) is calculated from the oxygen concentration detected by the first sensor (17) and the detected intake air flow rate (7). A control command value of an air-fuel ratio is alternately switched between a first value corresponding to a lean air-fuel ratio and a second value corresponding to a rich air-fuel ratio according to a result of comparison between the calculated inflowing oxygen amount and target values. Excessive inflowing oxygen amounts are calculated. The target values are corrected with the excessive inflowing oxygen amount. A deterioration degree of the catalyst (14a) is detected based on an output of the second sensor (18) when performing the switching of the control command value using the corrected target values.

Abstract: A liquid soap dispenser is disclosed having a permanent housing which permits simplified insertion and replacement of disposable fluid reservoirs. The housing includes an actuator assembly which is cycled by a lever between first and second positions. The actuator assembly is configured to couple to a piston element of a piston pump carried on the reservoir so that when cycled, the piston element is actuated in sliding movement to dispense a quantity of fluid. The piston element includes resiliently deformable fingers which act to secure the piston element to the actuator assembly for sliding movement therewith. If, on insertion of a replacement reservoir, the reservoir is positioned uncoupled from the actuator assembly, on first cycling of the actuator assembly the fingers deform to permit movement of the actuator assembly relative to the piston element and move towards a coupled orientation. In the coupled orientation, the fingers return to an undeformed configuration securing the piston element to the actuator assembly.
