In 1888, Dr. Allen DeVilbiss was a country doctor serving patients in the rural communities around the town of Toledo in Ohio USA. The most common treatment for throat infections at the time was to swab the inside of the patient's throat with petroleum jelly or goose grease not a pleasant remedy but as effective as possible.

Dr. DeVilbiss set about inventing a better method of coating infected throats of patients, working in his little work shop, he assembled a hollow rubber ball, a metal jar, and a small tube. The home grown device would pump out a spray of medicine when the ball was squeezed. He filled the metal jar with petroleum jelly and heated it over a candle flame to make the jelly a sprayable liquid. He next added an adjustable tip to the tube that allowed him to adjust the pattern of the spray.

The adjustable spray tip was unique enough that Dr. DeVilbiss applied for and received a patent for the idea.
