Abstract

An extension arm device for releasably holding, manipulating, and remote operation of conventional trigger pump spray containers having a manual trigger pump spray head thereon. The extension arm is an elongate tubular member having a mounting receptacle at a distal end for releasably receiving and securing the trigger pump spray container and pump spray head thereto, a handle and trigger assembly at the proximal end, and an actuator rod connected to the trigger assembly at the proximal end extending through the arm and having an opposed outer end configured to engage and operate the trigger of the trigger pump spray head. Manual reciprocation of the trigger assembly at the proximal end is transmitted to the pump spray head trigger by the actuator rod to pump liquid from the container and discharge it through the nozzle of the spray head.
