Patent number: 10836561Abstract: An aerosol dispenser, an outer container for an aerosol dispenser, and a preform for an outer container. The aerosol dispenser, outer container, and preform each have a neck including a crimp ring. The crimp ring may be configured to receive a valve cup, which is clinched thereto. The crimp ring includes one or more vents. The vents may be used to control overpressurization within the dispenser. The vents may be exposed to pressurized propellant and product due to deformation of the neck during undue overpressurization. The vents allow propellant and/or product to be released therethrough in the event of overpressurization.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2019Date of Patent: November 17, 2020Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Matthew John Martin, Andrew William Franckhauser, Douglas Bruce Zeik

Patent number: 9986809Abstract: The present invention relates to an aerosol hairspray product. The product comprises: a pressurizable container comprising a container wall which encloses a reservoir for storing a hairstyling formulation and a liquefied gas propellant; and a spraying device attached to the container for dispensing the hairstyling formulation from the reservoir of the container. The spraying device comprises a valve and a nozzle and the valve comprises a valve body, a stem and a spring means. The valve body houses an insert and the insert comprises an insert orifice and at least two channels. The channels are tangentially disposed about the insert orifice. Also the valve body comprises at least two vapor taps. Furthermore the insert orifice is capable of being in liquid communication with the hairstyling formulation in the reservoir.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2014Date of Patent: June 5, 2018Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Jodi Lee Brown, Jose Antonio Carballada, Willy Benson, Matthew John Martin, Kendrick Jon Hughes

Patent number: 9061795Abstract: A container having a curved bottom and base cup which allows the container to stand upright. The container and base cup are fitted together by a mechanical engagement having portions on the container and base cup. The mechanical engagement of the container is disposed within the bottom cone of the container. The mechanical engagement of the base cup is cantilevered from the bottom of the base cup. Such disposition reduces stress at the interface between the side wall of the container and edge of the base, providing for a smoother transition and better appearance. Also, this disposition provides resistance to separation of the container and base cup during drop impact. The bottom of the container may be curved and have a well therein for receiving the contents of the container and a dip tube.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2007Date of Patent: June 23, 2015Assignee: Procter & GambleInventors: Richard Michael Girardot, Scott Edward Smith, Chow-chi Huang, Matthew John Martin, Terence McCarthy, Leonard Clyde Graham

Patent number: 8523005Abstract: A container having a curved bottom and base cup which allows the container to stand upright. The container and base cup are fitted together by a mechanical engagement having portions on the container and base cup. The mechanical engagement of the container is disposed within the bottom cone of the container. The mechanical engagement of the base cup is cantilevered from the bottom of the base cup. Such disposition reduces stress at the interface between the side wall of the container and edge of the base, providing for a smoother transition and better appearance. Also, this disposition provides resistance to separation of the container and base cup during drop impact. The bottom of the container may be curved and have a well therein for receiving the contents of the container and a dip tube.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2010Date of Patent: September 3, 2013Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Matthew John Martin, Scott Edward Smith
