Dual actuated aerosol devices
An aerosol actuator having a button actuator on a top surface thereof and a lever actuator extending away from the button actuator may be assembled with an aerosol container and valve to provide ergonomic application of a product utilizing the aerosol actuator.
1. A trigger for an aerosol actuator, comprising:
a top button actuator;
a lever actuator extending off of the top button actuator;
at least one pivot support extending off of the top button actuator;
at least one trigger post extending outward from the at least one pivot support;
at least one actuator wing extending off of a bottom of the top button actuator configured to actuate the aerosol actuator upon application of a force to either the top button actuator or the lever actuator;
at least one retention post extending outward from the trigger, wherein the at least one retention post is configured to prevent the trigger from being disassembled from the aerosol actuator once assembled thereto; and
an actuation lock extending downward from the bottom of the top button actuator configured to engage a lock projection on a base to prevent the trigger from pivoting relative to the aerosol actuator.
2. The trigger of claim 1 , further comprising a top button actuator length and a lever actuator length, wherein the top button actuator length is less than the lever actuator length.
3. The trigger of claim 1 , wherein the at least one pivot support further comprises at least one trigger post extending outwards from the pivot support and wherein the at least one trigger post mates with the aerosol actuator.
4. The trigger of claim 3 , wherein the at least one trigger post provide a pivot point for the trigger to rotate relative to the aerosol actuator.
5. The trigger of claim 1 , wherein the at least one actuator wing comprises two actuator wings.
6. The trigger of claim 1 , wherein the at least one actuator wing comprises at least one actuator wing having a wave-like shape.
7. The trigger of claim 1 , wherein the at least one actuator wing is configured to apply an actuating force to a manifold of the aerosol actuator when a force is applied to the top button actuator.
8. The trigger of claim 1 , wherein the at least one actuator wing is configured to apply an actuating force to a manifold of the aerosol actuator when a force is applied to the lever actuator.
9. The trigger of claim 1 , wherein the at least one retention post comprises two retention posts.
10. The trigger of claim 1 , wherein the at least one retention post further comprises a sloping surface projected away from the trigger.
11. The trigger of claim 1 , further comprising at least one indicia on a surface of the top button actuator.
12. The trigger of claim 1 , further comprising at least one indicia on a surface of the lever actuator.
