The present invention generally provides a towel wetting or pre-wetting device for the wetting of towels at the point of use. More specifically, the present invention provides for disposable towel pre-wetting devices which provide a point of use wetting for cleaning and disinfecting wipes or towels. Embodiments allow for activation of the towel pre-wetting device with a towel through the lid which temporarily unseals the bowl from the cap allowing fluid to be released from the reservoir to pre-wet a towel as it is extracted through the lid. Embodiments allow for the adjustment of the bowl relative to the cap which controls the volume of fluid to be released to wet the towel. The pre-wetting device is intended to be affixed to the top of a cylinder of towels. Thus the present invention solves the unmet need of providing for wet cleaning wipes or towels at the point of use.

When using a Prep Pad that contains a solution soaked with alcohol, adhesive or patch remover, or any other kind of antibacterial agent, the act of operating it while trivial for one time use can quickly become inefficient, mundane and time consuming. The invention packs multiple, but single use encapsulated Pellets inside a cylindrical refill apparatus. The Pellet is made of soft material and it may be soaked or un-soaked. The refill apparatus is then inserted into a cylindrical pen like structure that automatically peels the Pellet when operated. The result is that in a few pen like clicks, an operator, using a single hand, can quickly get ready to cleanse or apply a Pellet onto a surface. An operator can easily store capacity for multiple applications in a pen pocket. The single hand use, quickness to readiness and compact easy storage makes the invention ideal alternative to a Prep Pad like use. 1.

Dispensing Tissue Box

A tissue box that, in the preferred embodiment, includes an additional and integral box cover section which may be pivoted away from the tissue box, then engaged with the same in a way that permits support on a flat surface and where the tissue box becomes substantially inverted, allowing for the removal of tissues in a substantially downward direction. 1. A tissue box for placement on a planar surface whereby said tissue box is maintained in a substantially inverted position so that tissues are dispensed in a substantially downward direction. This invention relates to a tissue box that dispenses tissues in a substantially downward direction.Facial tissues were invented in 1924 by International Cellucotton Products Company (later to be called Kimberly-Clark) for removing makeup and creams from women's faces, and called Kleenex. That brand name was chosen to phonetically link it to Kotex, another product introduced only a few years earlier by this same company. A company researcher who was struggling with hay fever kept using their new Kleenex product to clear his nose. It was this inadvertent act which persuaded the company to market Kleenex as a disposable handkerchief. Since then, the tissue box has become as ubiquitous a sight as a wall clock or telephone.Tissue boxes have changed little since their introduction in 1924. A portion of the box top is removed to expose the top tissue, then they are removed in succession until the bottom-most tissue is removed and the box discarded. One improvement in tissue boxes was to interleave the tissues, then provide a plastic film having a slit in the middle attached to the top of the tissue box through which tissues are pulled. Since the bottom of the top tissue is folded under the top of the next tissue, pulling out the first constrains the top of the next tissue to partially follow the first tissue out of the box via friction. That friction is released once the first tissue fully leaves the box. With the top portion of a ...
