  • Operating handle for aerosol container
    Patent number: 4579258
    Abstract: An operating handle for an aerosol container features a hand grip portion, a shell portion and a trigger assembly interconnecting the hand grip portion and the shell portion. The trigger assembly includes an actuator arm for engaging the plunger head of an aerosol container and a trigger arm projecting along the hand grip portion whereby the trigger arm can be squeezed toward the hand grip portion to drive the actuator arm against the plunger head. The shell portion serves as a receptacle in which the aerosol can is secured and as a shield for isolating the hand and fingers from exposure to the aerosol spray. A quick release fastener assembly is carried by the shell portion for securing the aerosol container in a stable, upright operating position within the shell.
