An actuator-overcap (14) for use with pressurized aerosol containers of the type having tiltactuatable valves whereby a wall mounted pressurized package avoids spraying of the product on the wall. The actuator-overcap includes a fixed portion (24) and a tab portion (26) movably attached thereto through a peripherally located hinge (28). The tab portion includes a laterally-facing finger-contact surface (38) which is radially depressible to actuate the valve (20). The tab portion also includes an overhang (40) which is axially adjacent to the distal end (34) of a valve stem extension (30). The valve stem extension has an upward-facing bearing surface (36) which is contacted by a downward-facing wedging surface (44) on the overhang of the tab portion. The wedging surface is engageable with the bearing surface at a position radially opposite the position of the hinge such that radial depression of the finger-contact surface provides a wedging action on the extension causing it to tilt toward the hinge position. |
