Abstract
An article includes a can with a valve stem and a dispensing device attached to the valve stem where the dispensing device includes a hollow base, a hollow tube attached to the hollow base the hollow tube having one or more than one hole proximate to its exit end, a sleeve with a finger pad that slides over the hollow tube and an elastic connector attaching the sleeve to at least one of the hollow base and hollow tube, and a sealing gasket residing between the hollow tube and sleeve, wherein the dispensing device can reversibly move between a closed position where the sleeve seals the one or more than one hole in the hollow tube and an open position where the one or more than one hole in the hollow tube is unsealed by the sleeve and the elastic connector provides a restoring force to the sleeve when in the open position that directs the sleeve to a closed position.
