Novel point-of-purchase cantilevered deflectable display assemblies, which normally extend transversely into a shopping aisle. Display assemblies which accommodate substitution of one frame-carried form or configuration of advertising for another, which can be radically different, without disconnecting the entire display assembly from its mounting to a molding at a store shelf or like. The advertising frame with which the advertising medium is associated is removably connected to a hanger portion. The hanger portion accommodates the above-mentioned on-site frame and advertisement removal and exchange while the remainder of the display assembly remains in its shelf-mounted or like position. Display assemblies are disclosed which enhance the deflectable nature of the cantilevered distal part of the display assemblies, the manner in which pivoting occurs and is controlled or limited and the way in which the display assemblies are biased toward neutral in the assembled condition.

A disposable atomizer device for directing a liquid into or on the body of a patient. The atomizer device includes a container for holding a liquid, and a liquid inlet tube disposed in the container. An atomizing nozzle is in communication with the liquid inlet tube. A gas inlet tube is in communication with the nozzle and is attachable to a source of compressed gas. The atomizer device includes a trigger valve system adjacent to the gas inlet tube for providing controlled release of compressed gas from the gas inlet tube to the atomizing nozzle. The trigger valve system includes a needle valve positioned in a needle support surrounded by a valve housing with a cap. The needle support is movably engaged with the cap for retaining the needle valve within the valve housing, and the needle valve is resiliently biased toward the cap. The valve housing has a pressure relief port for reducing line pressure to an acceptable level. When the needle support is depressed inwardly by an operator, the needle valve releases compressed gas from the gas inlet tube into the nozzle, thereby withdrawing the liquid from the container into the nozzle such that the liquid is atomized when discharged from the nozzle.
