Dispensers mechanism
The down stroke, the piston pushing
in, shrinks the area of the cylinder,
forcing fluid out of the pump.
The upstroke, the spring pushing the
piston back out, expands the cylinder
area, sucking fluid into the pump.
In a spray bottle, you need to suck
cleaning fluid in from the reservoir
below and force it out through the
barrel above. In order to get all of the
fluid moving through the barrel, the
pump must only force the fluid up -- it
cannot force the fluid back into the
reservoir. In other words, the fluid must
move through the pump in only one
direction. That’s why one way valves
are used
UpstrokeDown stroke

• The outer body becomes oily due to dripping of oil.
• Currently there is a 3 level storage of oil
i.e. 15litre/5litre(pack as received) , 1litre(weekly use dispenser),
250ml.(daily use dispenser).
• Oil marks(rings) found on the floor of storage.
• No metering of oil while dispensing oil from dispenser to pan.
• Cleaning of plastic and other dispensers.
• Oil does not spread evenly on‘Tawa’
