Claims
- 1. An aerosol sprayer which comprises an aerosol can having a spray nozzle equipped on one end thereof, a pressure regulator connected with said can for providing a constant pressure in said can, and a compressed gas bomb which is connected with said regulator and charged with a highly compressed inert gas, said bomb being smaller in volume than said can and capable of holding greater pressures than said can, said regulator including a valve having a valve element exposed on one side to the pressure in the bomb in a direction to close the valve, a chamber on a second side of the valve element, said chamber partially defined by a partition member, said partition member being spring-biased against said valve in a direction to open said valve element, said partition member exposed on the side opposite said chamber to the interior of the can, and a passageway between said secondary chamber and the interior of the can and, a second valve means in said chamber for opening and closing said passageway in response to pressure changes in the can.
- 2. An aerosol sprayer according to claim 1 wherein the pressure regulator maintains a portion of the highly compressed gas within the bomb at a pressure of less than 10 Kg/cm.sup.2.
- 3. An apparatus sprayer according to claim 1 wherein the pressure regulator maintains a substantially constant pressure in said can of less than 10 Kg/cm.sup.2.
- 4. The aerosol sprayer according to claim 3 wherein the highly compressed gas in the bomb has an initial pressure of greater than 10 Kg/cm.sup.2.
