To provide a fixing plate for an aerosol container that allows positioning thereof, fittable to a mounting cup, applicable to aerosol containers without changes in shape, and fittable to the mounting cup without displacing out of position relative to the mounting cup. The fixing plate (100) for an aerosol container is mounted to a mounting cup (310) having two stems (320) protruding therefrom and is used for positioning of an exterior component. The fixing plate is formed in a cylindrical shape fittable to the mounting cup (310), includes, on an inner circumferential side thereof, container positioning unit and container lock unit for positioning and retaining and fitting of the fixing plate (100) and the mounting cup (310), and includes, on an outer circumferential side thereof, exterior component positioning unit and exterior component lock unit for positioning and retaining and fitting of the fixing plate (100) and the exterior component (200).

Dispensing systems, dispensers, and methods for dispensing a pressurized product from a container. Such a dispenser includes a cap, a nozzle within the cap so as to be translatable relative to the cap, an actuator within the cap so as to be translatable relative to the cap and relative to the nozzle, and a biasing member that urges the actuator and nozzle apart from each other. The nozzle is configured to attach to a valve stem of a canister and has a passageway through which the pressurized product is dispersed. The dispenser has a partially actuated position following a first actuation stage resulting from the actuator being translated until the actuator abuts the nozzle without causing the nozzle to translate, and a fully actuated position following a second actuation stage resulting from the actuator being further translated to cause the nozzle to simultaneously translate with the actuator.

Dispensing systems, dispensers, and methods for dispensing a pepper spray or other irritant from a container. Such dispensers include a cap, a nozzle within the cap so as to be translatable relative to the cap, an actuator within the cap so as to be translatable relative to the cap and relative to the nozzle, and a biasing member that urges the actuator and nozzle apart. The nozzle is configured to attach to a valve stem of a canister and has a passageway through which the pepper spray is dispersed. The dispenser has a partially actuated position following a first actuation stage resulting from the actuator being translated until the actuator abuts the nozzle without causing the nozzle to translate, and a fully actuated position following a second actuation stage resulting from the actuator being further translated to cause the nozzle to simultaneously translate with the actuator.

A trigger operated aerosol dispenser is disclosed for dispensing an aerosol product from an aerosol container through an aerosol valve. The trigger operated aerosol dispenser comprises a base secured to the aerosol container with a dispensing head mounted to the base. A nozzle extends through the dispensing head for communicating the aerosol valve with a terminal orifice. A trigger actuator extends from the dispensing head for actuating the aerosol valve upon depression of the trigger actuator to dispense the aerosol product from the terminal orifice. The trigger operated aerosol dispenser may incorporate a lock for inhibiting the trigger from actuating the aerosol valve. In one example, the trigger operated aerosol dispenser may be actuated in an alternate manner upon a depression of the dispensing head. Preferably, the trigger operated aerosol dispenser is formed from a two piece unit.

An aerosol dispenser assembly is disclosed that includes a container holding a liquid product and a compressed gas propellant for propelling the liquid product from the container. A design methodology for the actuator body and swirl nozzle insert is disclosed for maintaining a small particle size or Sauter Mean Diameter (D[3, 2]) of less than 48 m at a suitable spray rate (1.5-2 g/s), while utilizing a compressed gas VOC-free propellant for an air freshener product. As obtaining reduced particle size to compete with LPG propellants may result in a reduced spray rate, it is anticipated that one or more nozzles may be designed into the actuator body to maintain a suitable spray rate.

An aerosol hairspray product for styling and/or shaping hair wherein the product comprises: a container; a spraying device; a propellant; a hairstyling formulation comprising: (a) at least about 50% water; and (b) from about 0.01% to about 20% of a hairstyling polymer, wherein the hairstyling polymer is selected from the group consisting of: acrylates copolymers of two or more monomers of (meth)acrylic acid or one of their simple esters; acrylates/hydroxyesters acrylates copolymers of butyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, methacrylic acid, ethyl acrylate and hydroxyethyl methacrylate; polyurethane-14/AMP-acrylates polymer blend; and mixtures thereof. The product comprises about 2% or less alcohol, or is substantially free of alcohol, and the product comprises 54% or less VOC.

A discharge container includes: a container body in which contents are stored; a securing member; a discharger including a stem; an exterior portion that includes a top wall portion through which a molded hole passes, and that discharges the contents from the molding hole onto a discharge surface of the top wall portion; and an inner plate in the exterior section to be movable and which forms a diffusion chamber between the inner plate and a supply surface of the top wall portion.

An electrical plug-incorporated aerosol perfume dispenser that uses a negative pressure pipette in communication with a fragrance bottle and a gas delivery device to continuously deliver gas over the top side of the negative pressure pipette for causing a venturi effect to generate negative pressure adsorption in the negative pressure adsorption hole of the negative pressure pipette. Subject to this negative pressure adsorption effect, the molecules of the fluid fragrance are carried through the opposite drainage hole of the negative pressure pipette into the inside of an air duct around the negative pressure adsorption hole and delivered by the gas from the delivery device through an air outlet toward the outside open air. Based on the negative pressure adsorption structure, the electrical plug-incorporated aerosol perfume dispenser is safe in use.

Devices deliver the content of an aerosol, and are used in powder-actuated tools. A spray nozzle includes a cylindrical housing having, at a first end, with a base having a mounting bore that extends inside said housing so as to receive a barrel of a powder-actuated tool. The nozzle is equipped with a securing means. The base includes lobes that lie opposite one another in a single plane. A peripheral section of the second end of the housing is located on the same side as one of these lobes and has a curved projection with a rounded outer surface and an upward taper to form a common top surface with an additional cylindrical projection partially embedded into the inner surface of the curved projection. A V-shaped groove in communication with an axial opening of the second end of the housing extends on a free side of the additional projection.

An aerosol hairspray product includes a pressurisable container having a propellant and a container wall which encloses a reservoir, a hairstyling formulation having from 20 wt % to 75 wt % water, by total weight of the hairstyling formulation and propellant and from 1.0 wt % to 15 wt % hairstyling polymer, by total weight of the hairstyling formulation and propellant, and a spraying device attached to the pressurisable container and having a valve and an actuator. The reservoir is configured to store the hairstyling formulation. The valve has a spring means, a valve body having a stem, a restricted tail piece (RTP) having a first diameter of from 0.1 mm to 2.5 mm, and a vapour phase tap (VPT) having a second diameter of from 0.1 mm to 1.5 mm. The actuator has a main spray channel and communicates with an insert.
