Abstract
An aerosol container 10 having a perforated nozzle member 11 disposed at a distal end of a container body 12 with a content stored therein and for discharging the content onto the sole of a foot by stepping on the perforated nozzle member 11, wherein projections are provided at a location surrounding a plurality of nozzle ports 14 formed in the perforated discharge nozzle member 11 and an interval between a sole side of the foot and the nozzle ports 14 is retained by the projection when the perforated discharge nozzle member 11 is stepped on. The projections surrounding the plurality of nozzle ports 14 are an annular wall 32 and an upper end of the annular wall 32 is defined as an opening having a size dimension able to be covered with the sole of a foot.

An aerosol container comprising:
- a discharge nozzle member, disposed on a distal end of a body of said aerosol container with a content stored therein, for discharging the content onto a sole of a foot by stepping on said discharge nozzle member;
- projections are provided at a location surrounding a plurality of nozzle ports formed in said discharge nozzle member and an interval between a side of the sole of the foot and said plurality of nozzle ports is retained by said projections when said discharge nozzle member is stepped on, wherein said discharge nozzle member is provided with sound-reduction means being an annular wall arranged as said projections surrounding said plurality of nozzle ports, and an upper end of said annular wall is defined as an opening having a size dimension able to be covered with the sole of the foot.
A method of using an aerosol container comprising the step of:
- providing a discharge nozzle member on a distal end of a body of said aerosol container with a content stored therein;
- forming a plurality of nozzle ports in said discharge nozzle member;
- providing projections at a location surrounding said plurality of nozzle ports;
- stepping on said discharge nozzle member to discharge the content of said aerosol container onto a sole of a foot so that the foot can be treated with the content;
- retaining an interval between a side of the sole of the foot onto which the contents of said aerosol container are to be sprayed via said projections when said discharge nozzle member is stepped on;
- and
- providing said discharge nozzle member with sound-reduction means in the form of an annular wall arranged as said projections surrounding said plurality of nozzle ports, wherein an upper end of said annular wall is defined as an opening having a size dimension able to be covered with the sole of the foot.
