Patent ID: 8505786

Claim:
A system for dispensing texture material onto a target surface in a desired pattern that substantially matches an existing pattern on the target surface, comprising: a main container, where the main container stores texture material and pressurized propellant material; an outlet assembly supported by the main container, where the outlet assembly comprises an actuator member having a stem portion and a plurality of fingers, where the actuator member defines a first engaging surface, an outlet member arranged within the plurality of fingers, where the outlet member is deformable and defines an outlet opening, and a screw member defining a second engaging surface, where the second engaging surface is adapted to engage the first engaging surface such that rotation of the screw member relative to the actuator member displaces at least one of the fingers such that the fingers act on the outlet member to alter a cross-sectional area of the outlet opening; and an aerosol valve assembly arranged to allow control of fluid flowing out of the main container; whereby the outlet assembly is configured such that the cross-sectional area of the outlet opening corresponds to the desired pattern; the aerosol valve assembly is operated to allow the pressurized propellant material to force the texture material out of the main container through the outlet opening defined by the outlet assembly; and the texture material forced out of the main container is deposited on the target surface in the desired pattern.
