Tip holder for aerosol dispensing containers

Abstract

A tip holder mountable on an aerosol dispensing container wherein the tip holder has a plurality of spraying dispensing tip holders for frictionally and releasably holding spare spraying dispensing tips.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A spare tip holder mountable on an aerosol dispensing container comprising, in combination:
 a rim portion;   at least one spraying dispensing tip holder mounted on said rim portion and extending therefrom, said at least one spraying dispensing tip holder having walls defining a generally tubular tip holder having a generally circular aperture therethrough and said aperture sized to have said walls releasably and frictionally retain a spraying dispensing tip therein.   
     
     
         2 . The arrangement defined in  claim 1  wherein:
 said rim is generally planar and is circular about a centerline extending perpendicularly to the plane of the rim; 
 said at least one spraying dispensing tip holder extends inwardly from said rim towards said centerline. 
 
     
     
         3 . The arrangement defined in  claim 2  and further comprising:
 a plurality of said spraying dispensing tip holders mounted on said rim and extending inwardly therefrom from said rim towards said centerline. 
 
     
     
         4 . The arrangement defined in  claim 1  and further comprising:
 said rim is generally planar and is circular about a centerline extending perpendicularly to the plane of the rim; 
 a plurality of said spraying dispensing tip holders mounted on said rim and extending inwardly from said rim toward said centerline and the walls of at least some of said spraying dispensing tip holders are split. 
 
     
     
         5 . The arrangement defined in  claim 3  and further comprising:
 a reinforcing member extending between adjacent spraying dispensing tip holders in regions spaced from said rim. 
 
     
     
         6 . The arrangement defined in  claim 4  and further comprising:
 a reinforcing member extending between adjacent spraying dispensing tip holders in regions spaced from said rim. 
 
     
     
         7 . The arrangement defined in  claim 3  wherein:
 the walls of each of said plurality spraying dispensing tip holders define a complete cylinder. 
 
     
     
         8 . The arrangement defined in  claim 4  wherein:
 the walls of each of said spraying dispensing tip holders are split. 
 
     
     
         9 . The arrangement defined in  claim 7  and further comprising:
 reinforcing members extending between adjacent spraying dispensing tip holders in regions spaced from said rim. 
 
     
     
         10 . The arrangement defined in  claim 8  and further comprising:
 reinforcing member extending between adjacent spraying dispensing tip holders in regions spaced from said rim. 
 
     
     
         11 . The arrangement defined in  claim 1  wherein:
 said rim is generally planar and is circular about a centerline extending perpendicularly to the plane of the rim; 
 said at least one spraying dispensing tip holder extends outwardly from said rim away from said centerline. 
 
     
     
         12 . The arrangement defined in  claim 11  and further comprising:
 a plurality of said spraying dispensing tip holders mounted on said rim and extending outwardly from said rim away from said centerline. 
 
     
     
         13 . The arrangement defined in  claim 12  wherein:
 the walls of at least some of said spraying dispensing tip holders are split. 
 
     
     
         14 . The arrangement defined in  claim 12  wherein:
 the walls of each of said spraying dispensing tip holders are split. 
 
     
     
         15 . The arrangement defined in  claim 12  and further comprising:
 the walls of each of said plurality spraying dispensing tip holders define a complete cylinder. 
 
     
     
         16 . The arrangement defined in  claim 15  and further comprising:
 a reinforcing member extending between adjacent spraying dispensing tip holders in regions spaced from said rim.
