Patent ID: 8523023

Claim:
An aerosol container resuscitator assembly for directing aerosol container product discharge, the aerosol container resuscitator assembly thereof comprising: an interface fitting assembly, said fitting assembly comprising an annular fitting and a three-dimensional, elastically deformable, clamping structure, the annular fitting comprising an upper fitting section, a lower fitting section, and a driver assembly-receiving cavity extending through the upper and lower fitting sections, the upper fitting section having a first exterior diameter, an upper fitting surface, a lower fitting surface, and a fitting thickness between the upper and lower fitting surfaces, the first exterior diameter being greater in magnitude than an inner rim diameter of said aerosol container rim, the upper fitting surface comprising diametrically-aligned, radially opposed clamp-receiving grooves opposite the driver assembly-receiving cavity, the lower fitting surface for engaging an upper portion of an aerosol container rim, the lower fitting section having a second exterior diameter being lesser than the first exterior diameter and inner rim diameter, the lower fitting section for positioning the annular fitting against an inner portion of said aerosol container rim, the three-dimensional, elastically deformable clamping structure integrally comprising a U-shaped structure in a first dimension and opposed r-shaped structures in a second dimension, the U-shaped stricture being elastically deformable and when in its relaxed state, is shaped so as to engage a select arc length of an outer diameter of the aerosol container rim lesser than its maximum outer diameter, the r-shaped structures each having a fitting spanning section and a fitting clamping section, the fitting spanning section for spanning the fitting thickness, the fitting clamping section being receivable in the clamp-receiving grooves for clamping the interface fitting assembly to the aerosol container rim; and a driver assembly, the driver assembly comprising a sleeve and a driver, the sleeve extending through the driver assembly-receiving cavity and comprising axially opposed spring/seal-receiving and driver-receiving cavities, said spring/seal-receiving and driver-receiving cavities being in communication with one another, the driver being received in the spring/seal-receiving and driver-receiving cavities and comprising an assembly outlet and driver conduit a conduit inlet of which driver conduit is communicatively engageable with a container outlet on the aerosol container for enabling matter to pass from the container outlet to the assembly outlet via the conduit inlet and driver conduit, the aerosol container resuscitator assembly thusly for directing aerosol container product discharge.
