  • Patent number: 8727185
    Abstract: A dispensing device is described. The dispensing device can include a body comprising a downwardly extending, elongated handle, at least one plunger slidably coupled to the body, and a trigger pivotably coupled to the body at a pivot point. The trigger can include a trigger portion extending downward from the pivot point and a transfer arm extending above the pivot point. The dispensing device can also include an actuator for engaging and advancing the at least one plunger in an axial direction and an elongated linkage extending axially and transmitting motion from the transfer arm to the actuator. The actuator can be positioned behind the handle and the linkage can cause the actuator to move forward axially when the trigger portion is pulled.
