Abstract:
An actuator for operatively engaging and dispensing a fluent medicament from a package in the form of a spray. The actuator includes a housing to receive and hold the package and further includes a force amplification mechanism that is connected to, and movable with respect to, the housing. The housing further includes a force transfer mechanism operatively engaged with a portion of the package. The force amplification mechanism is coupled with force transfer mechanism for accumulating a force sufficient to dispense the medicament from the package in the form of a spray.

Claim (Index 1):
An actuator for operatively engaging and dispensing a fluent medicament from a package in the form of a spray, said package of the type having a body containing a fluent medicament, a plunger movable relative to the body, an internal flow passage terminating at an exit orifice, and a frangible member for initially preventing movement of the plunger relative to the body, said actuator comprising:\n a housing with a recess configured to receive and hold the package; a force amplification mechanism movably connected with the housing for receiving and amplifying an input force generated by a user of the actuator; a force transfer mechanism carried by the housing and configured to receive an amplified force from the force amplification mechanism, the force transfer mechanism further configured to transmit the amplified force against the plunger of the package, wherein movement of the force amplification mechanism relative to the housing generates an amplified force against the plunger of the package sufficient to dispense the medicament from the exit orifice of the package in the form of a spray.
