AEROSOL ACTUATOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240051732 titled 'AEROSOL ACTUATOR
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an aerosol dispenser that is used to actuate an aerosol valve. The dispenser includes a base, an actuator, and a container mount to secure it to an aerosol container. The actuator is coupled to a nozzle that extends between the aerosol valve and a terminal orifice. The actuator can be pivotably displaced to position it between a dispensing position and a non-dispensing position. The dispenser also includes a primary base pivot terminator and a primary actuator pivot terminator that abut with each other to define an interlock and terminate pivoting of the actuator in the dispensing position.
- The aerosol dispenser is designed to actuate an aerosol valve.
- It includes a base, an actuator, and a container mount for securing it to an aerosol container.
- The actuator is coupled to a nozzle that extends between the aerosol valve and a terminal orifice.
- The actuator can be pivotably displaced to position it between a dispensing position and a non-dispensing position.
- The dispenser includes a primary base pivot terminator and a primary actuator pivot terminator that define an interlock and terminate pivoting of the actuator in the dispensing position.
Potential Applications:
- This aerosol dispenser can be used in various industries such as personal care, household cleaning, automotive, and more.
- It can be used for dispensing aerosol products such as air fresheners, cleaning sprays, lubricants, and insecticides.
Problems Solved:
- The dispenser provides a secure and reliable actuation mechanism for aerosol valves.
- It ensures proper alignment between the aerosol valve and the terminal orifice for effective dispensing.
- The interlock between the base and actuator prevents accidental or unauthorized dispensing.
Benefits:
- The dispenser allows for controlled and precise dispensing of aerosol products.
- It provides a user-friendly and ergonomic design for easy actuation.
- The interlock mechanism enhances safety by preventing accidental or unauthorized dispensing.
- The dispenser can be easily attached to and detached from aerosol containers for convenience and versatility.
Original Abstract Submitted
an aerosol dispenser is disclosed for actuating an aerosol valve comprising a base and an actuator. a container mount secures the base to an aerosol container. a base opening is in the base. a nozzle coupled to the actuator extends between the aerosol valve and a terminal orifice. an actuator mount secures the actuator to the base. the terminal orifice aligns with the base opening for defining a dispensing position. the terminal orifice is non-aligning with the base opening for defining a non-dispensing position. the actuator is pivotably displaced for positioning the actuator between the dispensing position and the non-dispensing position. a primary base pivot terminator is in the base. a primary actuator pivot terminator is in the actuator. the primary base pivot terminator abuts with the primary actuator pivot terminator for defining an interlock and terminating pivoting of the actuator in the dispensing position.
