ABSTRACT:
A snap-on cap for an aerosol shaving cream can is disclosed. An integral shaving cream brush is mounted in the cap so that when the cap is snapped onto a can of shaving cream the brush is held at an angle to the can body allowing for more convenient and efficient application of the foam. The cap is assembled in two pieces; a firm outer housing which provides a gripping surface and a flexible activator assembly which allows the cap to be easily snapped onto the aerosol can. The flexible activator assembly is comprised of an activator button rigidly connected to a nozzle by means of a strut. The nozzle and the activator button are each connected by a "hinge" to the brush forming a hinged parallelogram structure which provides sufficient flexibility to prevent activation of the aerosol can when the brush assembly is initially snapped onto the can. The hinged parallelogram allows vertical pressure to operate the can while preventing undesirable side-to-side movement of the activator button.
