A China Sprayer Bottle(KEXON) is a device that uses a basic pump mechanism to dispense contained liquids. All spray bottles are made up of the same parts that create a simple mechanism for pumping liquids up a tube, into a cylinder and out through a nozzle. Spray bottles are a very useful device, with a surprisingly simple construction. Made from only a few parts a spray bottle is constructed off of the basic principles used in industrial machinery, plumbing principles and human biology.

Some form of the spray bottle, a device for controlling the stream of liquids, has been around since before the 20th century. The original spray bottle was rather crude compared to modern spray bottles and its main part was a rubber bulb that acted as a catapult for shooting air, which forced the liquid to squirt. With the advancements in technology and the low cost of producing plastics after World War II, the demand for sprayers as convenient tools for the home only increased. 1947 saw the first commercial marketing for the spray bottle, when Dr. Jules Bernard Montenier invented an underarm deodorant dispenser. Roger Drackett, a soybean farmer and an investor in the Seaquist Company, one of the earliest producers of spray bottles, started using a plastic sprayers in his glass Windex bottles. It wasn't until the 1960s, when the consistency of plastic had improved, that spray bottles with trigger-lever mechanisms became popular.

A spray bottle has a trigger lever, piston, spring, cylinder, pump, thin plastic tube, bottle and two one-way valves. The pump mechanism sits in the head of the spray bottle between the two one-way valves located at the reservoir and the nozzle. The pump is made up of the piston, spring and cylinder and is activated by the trigger lever. When the trigger is compressed, the spring pushes the piston into the cylinder, pushing the liquid trapped in the cylinder out. Meanwhile, the one-way valve between the pump and reservoir is sealed by the water pressure. In order for liquid to get into the cylinder, however, the trigger must be released. The one-way valve between the nozzle and pump closes, while the one-way valve between the pump and reservoir is released to allow water to be sucked into the cylinder.
