- the actuating device 12 consists of a frame 13 which is substantially cylindrical in shape and is constructed such that its lower circumferential edge portion 14 sits'tightly in a recess 15 which is substantially defined by the crimped attachment of a cup 16 onto the body of the package 10.
- the frame 13 has a substantially closed top portion 18 and an upper plate 19, an intermediate plate 20, and a lower plate 21, all horizontally positioned within the housing and vertically spaced from each other.
- the horizontal plates 19, 20 and 21 are properly positioned within the frame 13 by means of vertical supporting members 22 and 23 which are shown broken away in the drawing.
- the vertical supporting members 22 and 23 are comprised essentially of a longitudinally extending rod 24 which is secured to the top portion 18 of the frame 13 and to the lower horizontal support 21.
- the rod extends through each of the upper and intermediate plates 19 and 2th and has a cylindrical sleeve 25 positioned about the rod 24'.
- a separate cylindrical sleeve 25 would be arranged about the rod 24 between the top portion 18 of the frame 13 and each of the horizontal supports 19, 20 and 21.
- three such sleeves 25 would be mounted in each rod 24, thereby maintaining the plates properly spaced from each other.
- a cup-shaped winding member 27 of slightly larger diameter than the frame 13 substantially encompasses the upper portion of the frame'

- the mechanism can be stopped.
- the spur gear 70 mounted at the end portion of the main drive shaft 35 "which extends below the intermediate support 20 is an internal spur gear 70.
- the internal spur gear 70 rotates with the drive wheel 37 and thus is directly driven by the barrel'spring 29 so that the torque developed by the spring is always applied to the internal spur gear.
- the spur gear 70 shown in this embodiment is designed to make one revolution every four hours.
- the spur 'gear 70 drives a one hour gear 71 which is rotatable on the shaft 72 and which in turn is mounted on the lower horizontal support 21.
- the one hour gear 71 drives a one-half hour gear 73 which is similarly mounted on a shaft .74 and mounted in the lower horizontal support 21.
- a cam 75 is also mounted on shaft 74 and spaced from the one-half hour gear 73.
- the cam 75 has identical cam actuating surfaces 76 and 77 which 4 extend in diametrically opposed directions from the bottom of the cam 75.
- the cam is constructed to actuate the aerosol package every fifteen minutes.
- the cam 75 can be constructed with cam surfaces similar to cam surfaces 76 and 77, but formed to extend outwardly substantially 90 offset from each other.
- Such a cam could be mounted on the one hour wheel 71 or the shaft 72 and actuation of the package could nevertheless be achieved every fifteen minutes.
- a special valve actuator 78 is mounted on the valve stem 11 which extends outwardly from the aerosol package 10.
- the actuator consists of a base supporting cylindrical member 79 which is adapted to fit snugly around a ring portion 80 of the cup 16 on the aerosol package 10.
- a nozzle portion 81 of the actuator 78 Inserted overthe valve stem 11 is a nozzle portion 81 of the actuator 78 which is joined to the cylindrical member Stiby. supporting members 82.
- the nozzle portion 81' has an orifice 83 formed therein to regulate the spray of
- the valve stem 11 formed in the aerosol package 10 is connected to a valve of the type adapted to be actuated by horizontal displacement.
- cam surfaces 76 and 77 are so formed in relation to the cam follower 85 that this displacement in a horizontal direction is' of a sufficient extent to actuate the valve 11 thereby causing the fluid within the package .10 to be dispensedfor a very short increment of time.
- cup-shaped member 27 In operation the cup-shaped member 27 is simply grasped by hand and rotated thereby winding the main'-' spring 29.
- the pin 32 becomes lodged in one of the ratchet teeth 33 thereby maintaining the barrel in its above could also be adapted to actuate aerosol packages having-vertical actuated valves contained therein. Referring now to FIG. 5 one arrangement has'been set forth in which this is accomplished.
- a spur gear 87 is attached to the end of the maindrive shaft 35.
- .spur gear serves to rotate a pinion gear 88 which is' mounted on a vertical shaft 89 which is pivotably mounted between the intermediate support 20 and the lower support 21 Also mounted on the shaft 89 and spaced from the pinion; 88 is a bevel drive gear 90.
- the bevel drive gear 90 serves-to rotate a bevel pinion gear 91 which is'securely mounted on a shaft 92 which is suspended over: the nozzle portion 81 of the actuator .78.
- journals 93 and 94 which are mounted on the lower horizontal support 21 a cam 94 is secured to the shaft 92 overlying the nozzle portion 81.
- the cam 94 has two cam actuating surfaces 95 and 96 which are in diametrically opposed positions.
- FIG. 6 the second embodiment of an intermittent actuating device of'a different drive arrangement is shown.
- The'actuatingdevice shown in FIG. 6 is substantially similar to that shown in FIG. 1 containing a more simplified drive mechanism.
- a click spring and rachet mechanism 90 is shown in an inverted position to that shown in FIG. 1.
- Spaced below the spring and rachet mechanism 90 preferably rotatable with the spring and rachet mechanism, which functions in a similar manner as that described in the first embodiment is a spur gear 91.
- the spur'gea'r 91 drives a pinion 92' whichis rotatably mounted ona main drive shaft 93.
- the drive shaft 93 is pivotably mounted between the upper portion 18 of the housing and the lower horizontal plate 21.
- a second drive pinion 94 is also securely mounted on the shaft 93 and rotatable therewith.
- the drive pinion 94 drives a wheel 95 which is one of several wheels comprising the timer train.
- the wheel 95 is equivalent to wheel 39 in the timer train as shown and described in FIG. 1.
- the remainder of a timer train, which is only partially shown in FIG. 6, is the same as that shown and described with respect to FIG. 1.
- a third drive gear 96 is securely mounted on shaft 93 and spaced from the drive pinion 94.
- the drive gear 96 serves as the hour wheel in the mechanism.
- the hour wheel 96 drives a one-half hour wheel 97 which is securely mounted on shaft 98 which is pivotably mounted between the intermediate plate 20 and the lower plate 21.
- the cam 99 Securely mounted on the shaft 98 and rotatable therewith is a cam 99.
- the cam 99 can have substantially the configuration of the cam shown in FIG. 4, or any other suitable configuration could be formed provided only that the cam be adapted to at least intermittently contact a cam follower 100, which is shown mounted on the nozzle or valve stem 101.
- the spring 29 is wound by the selective winding member 27 and is maintained in its wound position by the spring and rachet mechanism 90.
- the mainspring 29 provides sufficient force to drive the gear 91 which in turn drives the drive shaft 93 in its meshed relationship with pinion 92.
- the main drive shaft 93 is thus rotated and this rotation is regulated by the timer train as the drive shaft 93 is in meshed relationship with the pinion 94 and the wheel 95.
- This regulated motion is transferred to the cam 99 through the gear reduction of the one-half hour gear 97 and the hour gear 96.
- cams described have been ones in which the cam follower mounted on the valve is displaced against the resilient force of the spring loaded valve in order to dispense fluid therefrom, it is also intended that cam and valve actuator could be designed to cooperate with a valve which is held under tension in its closed position during contact of the cam valve actuator and is actuated to dispense fluid when said cam and valve actuator are out of engagement with each other.
- each of the embodiments shown describes a final gear reduction by means of one hour and one-half hour gears so as to cause a dipslacement every fifteen minutes, it is of course possible to increase or decrease the actuation time by varying the gear sizes, as well as by employing differently shaped cams.
