Manually operative atomizer

In a manually operable atomizer of the type having a container for containing liquid and an atomizer assembly connected to said container for atomizing the liquid, the atomizer assembly including a cylinder, a piston slidable in said cylinder, an atomizer head having a nozzle port therein, a pipe connecting and allowing communication between said piston and said atomizer head, and a spring biasing said atomizer head in a first direction, movement of said atomizer head in a direction opposite said first direction causing compression of liquid in said cylinder, forcing the liquid through said pipe and out through said nozzle port,

• the improvement comprising:
• a guiding member on said atomizer head;
• an operating member for depressing said guiding member against the biasing of said spring, said operating member including an inclined surface engaging said guiding member;
• and
• a cap connected to said container for supporting said operating member, said cap having openings therein for allowing access to said operating member and to allow passage of the atomized liquid;
• said guide member being in the form of a pair of guide pins projecting outwardly from respective side surfaces of said atomizer head;
• said inclined surface of said operating member including corresponding inclined cam surfaces on two space arms of said operating member, said cam surfaces engaging respective ones of said guide pins;
• said operating member being pivotally secured at a base portion thereof to the ceiling of said cap for free pivotal movement.
