Abstract:
An actuator includes a nozzle; a valve; and a trigger operatively connected with the valve, wherein the trigger comprises an elastomeric material, wherein the trigger is configured to reciprocate from a forward position to a rearward position and back to a forward position upon actuation, wherein upon actuation from a forward position to a rearward position the trigger comprises a changing moment arm.

Claim (Index 1):
An actuator comprising:\n a nozzle; a valve; a trigger operatively connected with the valve, wherein the trigger comprises a first zone and a second zone, wherein the first and second zones are joined by a hinge, wherein the hinge comprises a hinge axis that the first and second zones are movable about, wherein the trigger is configured to reciprocate from a forward position to a rearward position and back to a forward position upon actuation; and a mechanical stop positioned between the trigger and the housing, wherein the mechanical stop is configured to engage with the first zone of the trigger, wherein movement of the trigger from a forward position to the mechanical stop causes the first and second zones to move about a common axis, wherein movement of the trigger from the mechanical stop to the rearward position causes the first and second zones to move in opposite directions about the hinge axis.
