A dispensing system, comprising:
- a housing for coupling to a container, the housing having a first sidewall including an aperture;
- a trigger having a grip portion disposed outside of the housing and an arm extending through the aperture of the first sidewall and pivotably coupled to a fulcrum spaced apart from the first sidewall;
- a cap coupled to the housing;
- and
- a manifold suspended from the cap,
- wherein a lowermost point of the grip portion is to move along a first arcuate path, and a portion of the manifold is to move along a second arcuate path opposing the first arcuate path when the trigger moves from an unactuated position to an actuated position.
A dispensing system, comprising:
- a housing for coupling to a container, the housing having a first sidewall including an aperture;
- a trigger having a grip portion disposed outside of the housing and an arm extending through the aperture of the first sidewall and pivotably coupled to a fulcrum spaced apart from the first sidewall;
- a cap coupled to the housing;
- and
