FOAMING LIQUID CREAMERS FOR AEROSOL PACKAGING, AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SUCH FOAMING LIQUID CREAMERS AND AEROSOL PACKAGINGS

A foaming liquid creamer contains water, a lipid, a buffer salt, a stabilizer, and a dairy protein. Optionally the foaming liquid creamer further contains a sugar and/or a flavor. The buffer salt may include at least one of sodium bicarbonate or dipotassium phosphate. The stabilizer may include at least one of carrageenan, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), or guar gum. The dairy protein may include at least one of micellar casein or sodium caseinate. The emulsifier may include mono- and di-glycerides. The lipid may include an oil. The foaming liquid creamer may additionally include an emulsifier such as mono- and di-glycerides. Another aspect is an aerosol packaging which includes the foaming liquid creamer in a pressurized container, and the aerosol packaging has an actuator nozzle.

ACTUATOR NOZZLE FOR AEROSOL PACKAGING, AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SUCH ACTUATOR NOZZLES AND AEROSOL PACKAGINGS

An actuator nozzle has a lower portion comprising a base configured to connect to a container, and the base includes a lower orifice. The actuator nozzle also has an upper portion including a tapered section on one side of the upper portion, the tapered section tapers inward as the tapered section extends upward from the lower portion, the upper portion further having a substantially vertical section on an opposite side of the upper portion from the tapered section. The actuator nozzle also has an upper orifice in fluid communication with the lower orifice by an interior channel of the actuator nozzle, the upper orifice angled downward from a top of the tapered section of the upper portion to a top of the substantially vertical section of the upper portion.

FOAMING LIQUID CREAMERS FOR AEROSOL PACKAGING, AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SUCH FOAMING LIQUID CREAMERS AND AEROSOL PACKAGINGS

A foaming liquid creamer contains (i) water; (ii) at least one of micellar casein or sodium caseinate; (iii) at least one carbohydrate source; (iv) at least one lipid; (v) at least one buffer salt; (vi) at least one stabilizer; (vii) at least one sweetener; and (viii) at least one emulsifier. The carbohydrate source may include glucose syrup, preferably glucose syrup DE 25-29. The buffer salt may include dipotassium phosphate. The stabilizer may include at least one of carrageenan, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), or microcrystalline cellulose (MCC). The lipid may include coconut oil. The at least one emulsifier may include mono- and di-glycerides. The sweetener may include at least one of sucralose or acesulfame. The foaming liquid creamer may also contain a flavor. Another foaming liquid creamer contains (i) water; (ii) at least one of non-fat milk solids or milk fat; and (iii) sugar. Another aspect is an aerosol packaging which includes one of these foaming liquid creamers in a pressurized container, and the aerosol packaging has an actuator nozzle.

Proportionally controlled cap for spray paint cans
12473140 · 2025-11-18 ·

Described herein are proportionally controlled caps for spray paint cans that can provide a variety of spray effects and/or spread in the spray of paint without changing caps. The disclosed proportionally controlled caps include actuating elements that change the spread in spray paint to achieve a targeted spread. The cap includes an actuator button that is configured to move relative to a main body to cause a needle valve to change the spread in paint leaving the needle valve. The disclosed caps for spray paint cans can be configured to fit typical spray paint cans so that the disclosed caps can be used to replace the typical caps that come with spray paint cans, enabling typical spray paint cans to achieve a variety of spray effects and/or spreads in spray paint with a single cap.

Paint dispensing method and apparatus
12492066 · 2025-12-09 · ·

A paint container for use with a reusable dispensing apparatus, and the reusable dispensing apparatus are provided to dispense paint under pressure. The paint container includes a housing defining an interior space that is devoid of an internal valve, and a combination comprising a propellant combined with paint within the interior space. A container cap is installed on the housing to enclose the propellant combined with the paint within the interior space at an elevated pressure, and defines a channel that cooperates with a portion of the housing. A compressible gasket is disposed within the channel and compressed between the container cap and the portion of the housing to form a seal that interferes with an escape of the propellant combined with the paint between the container cap and the housing. A releasable fastener engages releasably couples the reusable dispensing apparatus to the container cap.

FORMULATION AND DISPENSER SYSTEMS FOR BEVERAGE FOAM TOPPINGS
20260013671 · 2026-01-15 ·

Formulation and dispenser systems create dairy based toppings for beverages. The dispensers include a container, valve, and an actuator for the valve. The formulations include a liquid product and a propellant. The liquid product includes a certain percentage of milkfat provided, for example, by heavy cream, skim milk, nonfat dry milk, sweeteners, and an emulsifier. The propellant is nitrous oxide or nitrogen.
