This invention describes a system for dispensing liquid from a special container, likely for an appliance. The container fits into a sliding drawer, and as the drawer moves, a part of the system interacts with a shaped surface on the container to allow liquid to be drawn out. The system can also use gas to help push the liquid out of the container.
Why it matters: The custom mechanical interface and gas-assisted dispensing could benefit from cheaper, more precise small pumps and advanced manufacturing techniques like 3D printing for custom parts, which were less accessible in 2009.
