ABSTRACT:
An actuator assembly for an aerosol container provided with a stem. The actuator assembly controls the dispensing of an aerosol product from the container. The actuator assembly includes a base which supports an actuator within a throughbore of the base in a cantilevered fashion. The actuator is provided with a primary discharge orifice for discharging the product from the aerosol container in a first spray configuration. The actuator assembly includes a secondary actuator mechanism which, when in an inactive position, allows the primary discharge orifice to control solely the discharge of the product to be dispensed from the aerosol container. The secondary actuator mechanism, when in a second active position, communicates with the primary discharge orifice and controls the spray configuration of the product to be dispensed as it is dispensed from the aerosol container. The secondary actuator mechanism can either be pivotally attached to the actuator assembly or completely removable therefrom.
