  • Aerosol over cap with flip-up closure
    Patent number: 6908017
    Abstract: Disclosed are actuator over caps suitable for use with aerosol containers. The caps are provided with flip-down lids that can move from a first position that blocks the outlet to prevent product drool between uses, to a second position that does not block dispensing. A push button is linked by a living hinge to a top wall of the cap. Downward pressure on the button can drive the lid away from its blocking position to facilitate opening the outlet of the cap.
