Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus for mounting and controlling sprayed application of a substance from a canister.
- Product dispensers e.g. aerosol canisters
- aerosol canisters are extremely commonplace and are used for the dispense of a multitude of products including cleaning and personal care products.
- the aerosol canister is not hand held but is distanced from a user by being mounted on an apparatus.
- These kind of apparatus are particularly useful when the contents of the aerosol are intended to be dispensed at a distance from the user, e.g. in a floor cleaning operation. In this manner the user does not have to bend down to ensure good contact / discharge of the aerosol contents onto the floor.
- the apparatus use an extension rod which contains an internal linkage between a trigger (operated by a user) and an aerosol canister.
- a trigger operated by a user
- an aerosol canister In use the linkage moves around within the rod causing an unpleasant noise as it contacts the internal surface of the rod.
- an apparatus for mounting and controlling sprayed application of a substance from a canister with a manual actuator mechanism comprising a main body portion with means for removable mounting of a canister; with a handle extending therefrom, and a trigger connected to said handle, said trigger adapted for causing said canister to emit a spray upon manual actuation thereof; wherein the handle is in the form of a tube and disposed within the tube is a rigid linkage cooperating with the canister and the trigger, characterized in that the linkage has a resilient arm bias against the interior of the tube.
- the apparatus may be removable connected to the means fro removable mounting of a canister and thus be in the form of an (extension) handle.
- an apparatus for use in controlling sprayed application of a substance from a canister with a manual actuator mechanism comprising a handle for association with a canister (or a mounting / housing therefore) , having a trigger connected to said handle, said trigger adapted for causing said canister to emit a spray upon manual actuation thereof; wherein the handle is in the form of a tube and disposed within the tube is a rigid linkage cooperating with the canister and the trigger, characterized in that the linkage has a resilient arm bias against the interior of the tube.
- the canister comprises an aerosol canister.
- the resilient arm acts as spring.
- the linkage has multiple arms for enhanced distancing from the tube of the main body.
- the arms are preferably arranged opposing sides of the linkage. Such arrangement may be in pairs, e.g. with a number of pairs of arms arranged along the length (or a portion thereof) of the rod. With this arrangement central disposition of the linkage within the tube may be achieved. With the use of the arms a reduction of friction caused by operation of the linkage has been observed, this is thought to be due to reduced contact of the linkage with the tube .
- the Ixnkage is in the form of a solid rod with vanes extending therefrom.
- the arms are mounted on the vanes.
- the mounting is on a surface of the vanes most distant from the solid rod.
- the linkage comprises a plastics material.
- the main body comprises a metallic material, e.g. aluminum.
- the trigger In use operation of the trigger causes movement of the linkage within the main body. Generally this movement is relative to the main body in an axial dimension. The movement of the linkage is such as to bring about activation of an aerosol canister.
- Preferably said use is with an aerosol in a floor / carpet cleaning operation.
- Figure 1 is a plan view of a device according to the invention.
- Figure 2 is a linkage of a device according to the invention.
- the apparatus 1 comprises a main body portion 3 with means for removable mounting of an aerosol canister 2.
- the main body portion 3 has a handle 4 extending therefrom.
- the handle 4 has a trigger 5 connected thereto, said trigger 5 adapted for causing said aerosol canister 2 to emit a spray upon manual actuation thereof.
- the handle 4 is in the form of a tube and disposed within the tube is a rigid linkage 6 (not visible in figure 1) cooperating with the aerosol canister 2 and the trigger 5.
- the linkage 6 is in the form of a rod.
- the rod has a plurality of axial vanes 7 branching therefrom. On the vanes 7 are arranged a plurality of resilient arms 8. The arms 8 act against the inside of the handle 4, ensuring that the linkage 6 does not audibly contact the handle 4.
