Abstract

Abstract A container for fluent material having a nozzle for dispensing the material with the nozzle being moved into dispensing position and also being actuated by a slidably mounted container cover. The container may be, for instance, a pressurized container for dispensing an aerosol product or a pump container equipped with, for example, a ball check valve for dispensing a fluent mass material.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 135 words
A pressurized dipsenser package for an aerosol material comprising: a pressurized container for the aerosol material, said pressurized container having a valve stem located on one end thereof for releasing the aerosol material contained therein when actuated; a nozzle having an outlet; means for connecting said nozzle to the valve stem of said pressurized container and for communicating the interior of said pressurized container with said nozzle when the valve stem is actuated; a hollow cover mounted on said container adjacent said nozzle for rotational and reciprocable motion; said cover operatively coupled to the valve stem for pushing the valve stem to actuate the valve stem when said cover is reciprocated in a downward direction; and means for moving said nozzle outlet into and out of said cover during a rotary movement of said cover.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 135 words
A pressurized dipsenser package for an aerosol material comprising: a pressurized container for the aerosol material, said pressurized container having a valve stem located on one end thereof for releasing the aerosol material contained therein when actuated; a nozzle having an outlet; means for connecting said nozzle to the valve stem of said pressurized container and for communicating the interior of said pressurized container with said nozzle when the valve stem is actuated; a hollow cover mounted on said container adjacent said nozzle for rotational and reciprocable motion; said cover operatively coupled to the valve stem for pushing the valve stem to actuate the valve stem when said cover is reciprocated in a downward direction; and means for moving said nozzle outlet into and out of said cover during a rotary movement of said cover.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
The pressurized package as recited in claim 1 which comprises means for covering said nozzle outlet when said nozzle is within said cover.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 28 words
A pressurized package as recited in claim 1 in which said nozzle moving means comprises an eccentric mounting on said cover for said nozzle on said pressurized container.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
A pressurized package as recited in claim 1 in which said cover comprises an aperture for passing said nozzle to a dispensing position.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 28 words
A pressurized package as recited in claim 1 in which said cover comprises a top, depending skirt and a valve stem pusher on the underside of said top.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 22 words
A pressurized package as recited in claim 1, said valve stem being centrally located on the one end of said pressurized container.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 173 words
A pressurized dispenser package for an aerosol material comprising: a pressurized container for the aerosol material, said pressurized container having a valve stem located on one end thereof for releasing the aerosol material contained therein when actuated; a nozzle having an outlet; means for connecting said nozzle to the valve stem of said pressurized container and for communicating the interior of said pressurized container with said nozzle when the valve stem is actuated; a hollow cover mounted on said container adjacent said nozzle for rotational and reciprocable motion; said cover operatively coupled to the valve stem for pushing the valve stem when said cover is reciprocated in a downward direction; means for moving said nozzle outlet into and out of said cover during a rotary movement of said cover; and head means for mounting on said pressurized container and cooperating with said cover, so that when said cover is mounted on said head means, said cover may be moved toward and away from said pressurized container and rotated relative to said head means.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 173 words
A pressurized dispenser package for an aerosol material comprising: a pressurized container for the aerosol material, said pressurized container having a valve stem located on one end thereof for releasing the aerosol material contained therein when actuated; a nozzle having an outlet; means for connecting said nozzle to the valve stem of said pressurized container and for communicating the interior of said pressurized container with said nozzle when the valve stem is actuated; a hollow cover mounted on said container adjacent said nozzle for rotational and reciprocable motion; said cover operatively coupled to the valve stem for pushing the valve stem when said cover is reciprocated in a downward direction; means for moving said nozzle outlet into and out of said cover during a rotary movement of said cover; and head means for mounting on said pressurized container and cooperating with said cover, so that when said cover is mounted on said head means, said cover may be moved toward and away from said pressurized container and rotated relative to said head means.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 22 words
A pressurized package as recited in claim 7, said valve stem being centrally located on the one end of said pressurized container.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 35 words
A pressurized package as recited in claim 7, said head means further comprises a stop member for preventing said nozzle from being depressed and actuating the valve stem when said nozzle is within said cover.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 33 words
A pressurized package as recited in claim 7, said head means further including a nozzle opening for cooperating with the aperture in said cover when said nozzle is rotated to a dispensing position.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 27 words
A pressurized package as recited in claim 7, said head means further including a lock member for preventing said cover from being removed from said head means.
