ABSTRACT:
A cap and valve actuator for spray dispensers used with aerosol containers, which includes a cap and a valve actuator member positioned therewithin and with the valve actuator member cooperating with the depressible discharge part of the spray dispenser, with the cap body having a circumference substantially that of the aerosol container so as not to extend substantially outwardly thereof, to permit the containers with caps thereon to be positioned contiguous to each other, and with the cap having an outlet opening at the front side thereof; the cap having a finger receiving socket extending inside the cap and accessible through a side rear opening in the cap body; the valve actuator having a socket for engagement with the valve stem of the aerosol container and a forwardly extending portion extending substantially to the front side outlet opening of the cap, with the forwardly extending portion of the actuator having a duct communicating with the socket engaging the valve stem of the aerosol container. The horizontally extending portion of the actuator has a projection at the forward end which is manually engageable by the forepart of the finger of the hand for manual depression through the forwardly extending portion of the actuator and through the outlet opening of the cap, the finger receiving socket and the projection for operating the valve actuator being such that the finger must be inserted deep into the finger receiving socket for forepart of any finger to actuate the valve actuator, thereby providing a unit which can be operated by adults but normally not by children.
