Abstract
The present invention relates to a package for dispensing a liquid product having a blow molded container body including an aperture and a pivotal connection. A pump device is attached to the aperture, and a unitarily formed actuation lever is pivotally connected directly to the pivotal connection of the container body allowing arcuate movement of the actuation lever. The pump device has a first contact surface located on a portion thereof and the actuation lever has a second contact surface which cooperates with the first contact surface enabling the actuation lever to apply a substantially vertical operating force upon the pump device when rotated, thereby dispensing the liquid product. In a preferred embodiment the liquid is dispensed as an atomized spray.
