The goal of this project is to design and model a dispensing pump that tackles some of the most common issues of using pumps: clogging and runoff. Our final design looks like a conventional hand pump but has unique features designed to make the user experience better and mitigate clogging and runoff issues.
The design was also inspired by a sink where the product leaves the nozzle through a hole on the underside instead of at the tip of the actuator. This placement creates a better user experience as the product does not shoot out horizontally at the consumer but rather downward toward their hand, surface, etc.
