Abstract:
Various dispensing devices, such as foaming soap pumps, are disclosed. The soap pump can include a fluid storage unit and a fluid handling unit. The fluid storage unit can include a reservoir that is configured to hold a quantity of product, such as liquid soap. The fluid handling unit can include a pumping assembly and dispensing assembly. The soap pump can be configured to withdraw liquid soap from the reservoir, convert the liquid soap to foamed soap, and dispense the foamed soap from the discharge assembly.

Claim (Index 24):
A dispensing device comprising:\n a reservoir configured to store a liquid product; an air inlet; a pumping assembly configured to draw the liquid product from the reservoir and to draw air through the air inlet, the pumping assembly comprising:\n a plurality of compartments; and \n a plurality of resilient members, each of the resilient members being movable between a first state and a second state, each of the resilient members being associated with one of the compartments, each compartment having a volume that is greater when the associated resilient member is in the first state than in the second state; \n a motor configured to drive an actuation member, the actuation member configured to actuate the resilient members between the first state and the second state, thereby drawing the liquid product and air into the pumping assembly and providing a flow of the liquid product and air out of the pumping assembly; a foaming unit configured to convert the flow of the liquid product and air into a foamed product; and a discharge nozzle configured to dispense the foamed product out of the dispensing device.
