Double nozzle overcap assembly

Abstract

[00124] An overcap assembly configured to attach to a container. The overcap assembly includes a body, an actuator, a first nozzle, and a second nozzle. The actuator is integrally attached with the body and defines a longitudinal axis. The actuator further comprises a fluid passageway that extends therein. The first nozzle and the second nozzle extend laterally from the actuator, and the first nozzle and the second nozzle define a portion of the fluid passageway. The first nozzle comprises a first angled exit aperture and the second nozzle comprises a second angled exit aperture. The first nozzle and the second nozzle each comprises an inner cylindrical wall and an outer cylindrical wall surrounding and spaced apart from the inner cylindrical wall. The first angled exit aperture and the second angled exit aperture are non-parallel to the longitudinal axis. 20 26 20 55 53 13 J ul 2 02 6 A B S T R A C T O F T H E D I S C L O S U R E [ 0 0 1 2 4 ] A n o v e r c a p a s s e m b l y c o n f i g u r e d t o a t t a c h t o a c o n t a i n e r .
