A dispenser system for a canister. The system includes an actuator with universal and replaceable component parts. The actuator may include an actuator frame, plunger, control, stem connector and canister connector. The actuator may be within a housing form factor that holds additional sensors. The sensors may be removable components that are used as part of a larger canister system. The sensor may communicate with a mobile device to indicate when to stop dispensing contents from the canister. The sensor may additionally be designed to prevent inadvertent actuation until the sensor is removed.

A valve for a container for dispensing pressurized fluid includes a housing which is mounted on a valve cup, a hollow stem provided in a passage of the housing which stem has at least one lateral inlet opening at its lower end and an outlet opening at its upper end, and a spring. The housing has a circumferential step-like contour with an outer, lower part and a central, upper part. The valve cup follows essentially the step-like contour line of the housing and ends horizontally on the top of the housing close to the stem and a sealing is provided on the upper side of the housing between the housing and the valve cup and which seals at the same time the valve cup against the housing and the stem against the housing.

A system and method to spray fluid from a container at different mass flow rates is provided. The system includes an actuator rotatable to select a mass flow rate and a valve having dual orifices that are selectively unsealed when the actuator is depressed according to the mass flow rate selection to effect dispensing of fluid.

A trigger overcap assembly includes a housing having a body, a cap secured to an upper end of the housing, and a trigger at least partially disposed within the body. The cap defines two or more flanges extending downwardly from an underside of the cap. The flanges are configured to engage with and retain the trigger.

An inhalation device including a housing, which encloses a liquid reservoir in which the liquid is stored before discharge, and an applicator head with a nebulization chamber and an applicator piece connected thereto, wherein the applicator piece is designed either as a mouthpiece, to be received in the mouth of a patient, or as an inhalation mask, to sealingly cover the mouth, the nose, or the mouth and the nose. The inhalation device furthermore has a discharge channel which connects the liquid reservoir to the applicator head. The inhalation device includes at the end of the discharge channel a nozzle plate with a large number of nozzle openings which serve to generate an inhalation mist and through which the liquid from the liquid reservoir is conveyed into the nebulization chamber.

A fluid dispenser device having a body, a reservoir including a neck, a dispenser member mounted on the reservoir, a lateral actuator system secured to the body and including a lever pivotally mounted, and a transverse projection formed directly on the reservoir and formed on or below the neck and co-operating, during actuation, with the lateral actuator system. The reservoir includes two parallel transverse projections that extend in symmetrical manner respectively on either side of the reservoir, a radial recess being defined between the two parallel transverse projections, the radial recess co-operating with the body so as to guide the reservoir axially during actuation.

A dispenser for aerosol containers includes: a nozzle; and a cover including an operating portion. One of the operating portion and the nozzle includes a sliding portion capable of depressing the nozzle to a predetermined depression position together with a plurality of stems while sliding on a slid portion provided at an other one of the operating portion and the nozzle to a termination, with a depression operation on the operating portion. A vibration generation portion that generates vibration as a result of entry of the sliding portion is provided at the termination of the slid portion.

A trigger overcap assembly includes a housing having a body, a cap secured to an upper end of the body, and a trigger at least partially disposed within the body. The trigger includes a manifold having a fluid passageway, and a pivot rod of the trigger is pivotally coupled with a pivot notch of the cap.

An actuator cap (1;50) for a fluid spray dispenser comprises a second body part (2) and a first body part (3). The first body part (3) is adapted for connection to a container for the fluid to be dispensed and incorporates a spray channel arrangement (4). The second body part (2) incorporates an actuator button (5) and is rotatable with respect to the first body part (3) from a first position in which the actuator button (5) is non-elevated into a second position in which the actuator button (5) is elevated and capable of depression to cause depression of a part (16) of the spray channel arrangement (4). The actuator button (4) defines a first cam profile (20) along which a first cam follower (22) defined by the first body part (3) travels to cause elevation or retraction of the actuator button (5) when the second body part (3) is rotated. The actuator button (5) also defines a second cam profile (23) that bears against said part (21) of the spray channel arrangement (4) such that when the actuator button (5) is in its elevated position and depressed the actuator button (5) depresses said second cam profile (23) and in turn depresses said part (21) of the spray channel arrangement (4) relative to the first body part (3) to dispense fluid from the container when in use. Preferably, the first and second body parts (3, 2) are individual, integrally moulded components that are snap-fitted together to assemble the actuator cap (1; 50).

A spray cap system is described that can enable a user to more consistently and accurately dispense and work with the contents of a spray can. The system includes a spray cap, spray button, spray nozzle, implement holder, and an implement (such as a brush, a foam pad applicator, or a sponge). By using the spray cap system, a user may achieve a more optimal discharge pattern of the contents of the can with a more efficient and optimal coverage of a surface. In addition, the user may utilize the implement while it is attached to the spray cap or remove the implement to use the implement independently. The spray cap system provides versatility to a user by enabling the user to spray the contents of the spray can regardless of whether the implement is attached to the spray cap.
