Abstract
An aerosol container includes a housing and a manually operable discharge valve mounted thereon for the dispensing of a liquid from the container. A reservoir for the liquid to be dispensed is mounted within the container and a chamber adapted to contain a supply of pressurized air is also mounted within the container. An air pump is mounted within the housing adapted to develop a supply of pressurized air upon oscillatory motion of the container by shaking. The container is so constructed as to provide for the withdrawal of liquid from the reservoir and for the discharge of the liquid thus withdrawn from the discharge valve under the influence of the pressurized air.
Claims8
An aerosol container comprising in combination:
- a housing;
- a manually operable discharge valve carried by said housing and adapted to selectively dispense a pressurized liquid therefrom;
- a reservoir mounted within said housing for the storage of the liquid to be dispensed;
- a chamber mounted within said housing adapted to contain a supply of pressurized air;
- air pump means mounted within said housing and adapted to develop a supply of pressurized air upon oscillatory motion of the container;
- conduit means for conveying pressurized air from said air pump means to said chamber;
- and means for withdrawing liquid from said reservoir and conveying same to said discharge valve and for dispensing same from said discharge valve under the influence of the pressurized air in said chamber.
