Abstract: An actuator cap for dispensing a liquid product, the cap comprising a rotatable outer body and an associated actuator button and a non-rotatable chassis and associated spray channel assembly; the outer body and actuator button being rotatable between: a first position in which the actuator button is non-elevated, the actuator button being incapable of depression in this position; a second position in which the actuator button is elevated across its full length and width relative to top surface of the outer body, the button still being incapable of depression in this position; and a third position in which the actuator button is elevated across its full length and width and tilted relative to top surface of the outer body, the button being capable of depression in this position; depression of the actuator button causing release of liquid product from an associated container through the spray channel assembly.

Abstract: An actuator cap for dispensing a liquid product, comprising: i) a rotatable outer body and an associated actuator button, the outer body comprising an inward projecting retaining clip and ii) a non-rotatable chassis and an associated spray channel assembly, the non-rotatable chassis comprising a circumferentially extending slot into which the inward projecting retaining clip of the rotatable outer body fits; the outer body and actuator button being rotatable between: a first position in which the actuator button is incapable of depression and the inward projecting retaining clip of the rotatable outer body is held firmly in the circumferentially extending slot of the non-rotatable chassis and a second position in which actuator button is capable of depression and the inward projecting retaining clip of the rotatable outer body is held less firmly in the circumferentially extending slot of the non-rotatable chassis.

Abstract: A method and actuator cap for opening a valve stem on a pressurised aerosol container, said method and actuator cap comprising the use of an actuator button that pivots about its front edge such that downward force on the rear edge of the actuation button causes an increased downward force on the valve stem, the total downward force on the valve stem being at least 10 N, characterised in that the downward force on the actuator button forces it downwards across its full length.

Abstract: The aerosol dispenser, comprises: an aerosol canister and associated valve stem; and an actuator cap (1) comprising: a rotatable outer body (2) and an associated actuator button (3); and a non-rotatable chassis (4) and an associated spray channel assembly (6), the latter comprising an outlet nozzle (63); the outer body (2) being rotatable between a first position in which the spray channel assembly (6) is separated from the valve stem of the aerosol canister and the dispenser is incapable of activation and a second position in which the spray channel assembly (6) is attached to the valve stem of the aerosol canister and the dispenser is capable of activation.

Abstract: An actuator cap (1) for dispensing a fluid product, comprising a rotatable outer body (2), a non-rotatable chassis (4), an actuator button (3) and a spray channel assembly (6), the latter comprising an outlet nozzle (63); the outer body (2) being rotatable relative to the chassis (4) between a first position in which the actuator button (3) is incapable of depression and a second position in which the actuator button (3) is capable of depression, said depression causing release of fluid product from an associated container through the spray channel assembly (6), the actuator cap (1) also comprises rotational tensioning means (34 and/or 12, 24) between the outer body (2) and the chassis (4), said rotational tensioning means (34 and/or 12, 24) serving to ease rotation of the outer body (2) towards its second position when close thereto.
