[0003] Helpful for the visually impaired or in poor lighting.
[0004] This applies to all sprays and spray containers.
[0005] The marking should be easy to feel on the outer edge of the spray button so that the user can see in which direction the spray jet goes.
[0006] The orientation aid can be an arrow or a button. Any type of clearly tactile orientation feature should be protected. Reference drawing 1 front with arrow as orientation head 2 Side view with round orientation head 3 Direction arrow 4 Orientation button strength of the arrow / head
