The invention relates to a dispensing head comprising an insert (20) provided with a cam surface, a ring (10) on which is articulated a lever (30) provided with a trigger, and at least one cam follower. The lever and the cam surface can rotate relative to each other between a closed position and an open position. According to the invention, the insert (20) is configured to be blocked in rotation relative to the container (80) and to the stem (81) of the valve, the ring is an adjustment ring (10) which is configured to rotate relative to the container (80) and to the insert (20) about the main axis (A) of the valve to bring the lever (30) and the cam surface (22) into an open or closed position. Tamper-evident means can be provided in the insert to ensure the integrity of the dispensing head before the first use.

Aspects of the disclosure are directed to methods and/or apparatuses involving an apparatus having a channel, an actuator, a mechanical stop, and a dial having nozzles and a gear. The dial is operable to rotate for selectively aligning each of the respective nozzles with the channel. The gear has a plurality of cogs and recessed regions between adjacent ones of the cogs, and is configured with the mechanical stop to prevent movement of the actuator when the dial is positioned such that none of the nozzles are aligned with the channel.

An aerosol actuator having an operating cap and a base cap, where the operating cap interfaces with the aerosol valve of an aerosol dispenser and is rotatable between a locked position which prohibits dispensing of the aerosol product and an unlocked position that allows dispensing of an aerosol product via tilting action of the operating cap, is presented. The operating cap is equipped with a plurality of fins positionable over a plurality of blocking surfaces and slots in the base cap, where rotation in one direction locks the operating cap and prevents actuation and consequent dispensing of an aerosol product and rotation in an opposite direction allows for operation of the cap and consequently the dispensing of an aerosol product.

A spray control apparatus for aerosol cans has a can coupling cap with a segmented and discontinuous aerosol can engaging ring. The cap top lip has a locking ledge having a bearing surface facing away from the can engaging ring, a cam track having a bearing surface facing toward the can engaging ring, and a guide slot therebetween. A plurality of generally planar reinforcing ribs radiate inwardly from the cap side wall. An actuator is concentrically within the cap, and has at least one cam protruding radially into the cap top lip. The cam engages the locking ledge bearing surface in a first rotary position and is thereby blocked from axial movement, and engages the cam track bearing surface in a second rotary position and is thereby driven axially toward the can engaging ring, and passes though the guide slot when rotated between the first and second rotary positions.

A dispensing system includes a manifold adapted to be fluidly coupled to a valve stem of a container. The manifold includes first and second members extending outwardly from the manifold. The dispensing system also includes a shroud having first and second shroud portions on opposing sides of the shroud. The dispensing system further includes at least one enclosed track. The enclosed track receives and permits sliding of at least one of the first and second members.

An adapter for a container includes a bracket having an annular sidewall and at least one projection extending interiorly from an external surface of the sidewall, wherein the at least one projection includes a sloped surface.
