The present invention discloses an aerosol dispensing device for selectively dispensing a pressurized aerosol disinfectant from an aerosol container. A wall mounted support base for holding an aerosol container has two support holes at its lower end which rotatingly receive corresponding support shafts integral with a cover so as to permit the cover to rotate downward with respect to the support base; a latch mechanism detachably secures the top end of the cover to the support base. The aerosol container includes a normally closed discharge valve at one end, the discharge valve having a hollow stem extending from one end of the aerosol container and being in flow communication therewith when the hollow stem is laterally deflected. The aerosol container is removably received, stem down, in a mating U-shaped support arm attached to the support base, by means of a mating ring-form groove formed in one end of the aerosol container near the hollow stem. A supplemental nozzle with integral extender projection is removably attached to the hollow stem so as to form a discharge flow path therewith when the discharge valve is open; the extender projection normally reposing in a first position wherein the hollow stem is undeflected and the discharge valve is closed. The aerosol dispensing device is activated by means of an actuating force applied to a pushbutton suspended in a cut-out area of the cover; the pushbutton being rotatingly attached to the cover by two suspension arms. An actuator integral with the pushbutton laterally displaces the extender projection to a second position wherein the discharge valve is open, in response to the actuating force. Two resilient members integral with the pushbutton, and compressed in accordance with the actuating force, act to resist motion of the pushbutton and permit the extender projection to be automatically restored to the first position when the actuating force ceases to be applied to the pushbutton.

[ What is claimed and desired to be secured by United States Letters Patent is:] [1.]1. An aerosol dispensing device comprising:(a) an enclosure having a cover rotatably attached to a support base;(b) a container removably received by the support base, the container holding an agent under pressure that is releasable through a discharge valve;(c) an extender projection operably attached to the discharge valve;(d) a movable actuator that is capable of displacing the extender projection so as to open the discharge valve in response to an actuating force applied to the actuator, whereby the agent is discharged from the container through the discharge valve when the discharge valve is open; and(e) at least one resilient member that exerts a force that moves the moveable actuator into a closed position when the actuating force is removed, the at least one resilient member comprising a plurality of "S" shaped springs.
