Abstract:
A fluid dispenser head for mounting on an actuator rod of a dispenser member that is displaceable down and up along an axis (X), the head including an axial connection sleeve for engaging on the actuator rod and defining an inlet duct, the head further including a dispenser endpiece defining an endpiece channel that is connected to the inlet duct via a connection channel, the endpiece including a free dispenser end defining a dispenser orifice that is situated at a downstream end of the endpiece channel, the head further including a bearing surface on which axial pressure can be exerted so as to drive in the actuator rod, where the endpiece extends substantially parallel to the axis (X), and is offset away from the axis.
Abstract:
A method for packaging a fluid product dispenser, where the said dispenser includes a reservoir (1) of constant effective volume filled with a fluid product (10), and a dispensing device (3) that includes a dip tube (2) which is intended to extract the fluid product (10) contained in the reservoir on operation of the dispensing device (3), the reservoir (1) and the dip tube (2) being made from a material or materials that are substantially or perfectly transparent, where the said dip tube initially contains air (A), and the dip tube (2) is connected to the dispensing device and has one free end extending to the bottom of the reservoir,the method being characterised in that the air (A) is extracted from the dip tube (2) and is replaced by the fluid product.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a fluid dispenser member comprising a body (1), a pusher (2) axially displaceable between a rest position and a depressed position, the pusher forming a fluid dispenser orifice (24), and a flexible part (3) connecting the body to the pusher. The part forms return spring means (35) urging the pusher towards the rest position. The part also forms the moving member (38) of an outlet valve. The part also comprises support means (33) engaged with the body, and anchor means (37) engaged with the pusher. The support means are surrounded by the anchor means. The part includes an elastically deformable portion (34) that extends between the support means and the anchor means. The elastically deformable portion (34) constitutes both the return spring means (35) and the outlet valve moving member (38).
Abstract:
A refill device for a receptacle provided with a threaded neck including a receptacle, designed to contain a product to be transferred into the receptacle, a cooperation structure designed to form a connection between the first and a second receptacle, a closing structure for closing off the receptacle, a transferring structure for transferring the product contained in the receptacle to the receptacle. The cooperation structure includes a threaded base capable of cooperating with the neck, the closing structure comprises a wall closing off the base, designed to be broken off by an axial force, the transfer structure includes an axial packing designed to be placed above the wall, such that during the said screwing of the neck, the neck pushes the axial packing into contact with the wall, so as to break the wall and enable the liquid to flow by gravity.
Abstract:
A method of assembling a fluid dispenser comprising: a dispenser member (2), such as a pump, the member including an inlet tube (22; 61) in which there extends an inlet for admitting fluid into the dispenser member; a reservoir (10) for containing fluid, said reservoir comprising a cylinder (11; 11′) and a follower-piston (14) that is slidably mounted in said cylinder; and an annular dish (32; 32′) presenting an outer periphery (33) that is secured to the cylinder (11; 11′), and an inner periphery (321) defining an opening (20) of section that is small relative to the cylinder, the working volume of the reservoir (10) being defined between the dish (32; 32′) and the follower-piston (14) over a height of the cylinder, the method including the successive steps of: filling the reservoir (10) with fluid; and engaging the tube (22) in leaktight manner in the opening.
Abstract:
A makeup box comprising a bottom (1) on which is articulated a cover, a push button being mounted in the periphery of the bottom (1) opposite the axis of articulation of the cover and coacting with a catch or the like of the cover. The bottom (1) is constituted by a solid piece provided with a recess (3) running about all its internal periphery and opening (5) centrally, a front window (6) opening into the recess (3) for the reception of a push button and catches, such as ribs or tongues (8), for the push button, disposed on opposite sides of the window (6).
Abstract:
This invention has as its subject a dispensing device for fluid-like products, composed of a container having a cylindrical drum, of which one end is provided with a movable base and the other end includes a neck which is capped by a distributor assembly including a pump with axial intake which is fitted onto a plunger sleeve. The lower face of the sleeve penetrates into the neck of the container during the fixing of the distributor assembly in the neck of the container, coming into position in sliding sealing engagement with a bearing surface of the neck.
Abstract:
An inhaler for powder products comprising a housing having an oral suction mouthpiece, a piston contained within the housing for movement in opposite directions, and an elastic member for urging the piston in one direction. The mouthpiece connects with a chamber in which the piston is located so that inhaling through the mouthpiece draws the piston toward the user's mouth. The piston includes a charging cavity for holding a charge of powder product. The cavity communicates with the internal volume of the mouthpiece as the piston is drawn toward the user's mouth whereby the charge is dispensed and inhaled by the user.
Abstract:
An atomizing nozzle usable on a vaporizer or atomizer is provided, having a unified core and valve member and a diaphragm perforated by a narrow orifice. The unitary member is axially mobile and laterally guided in a chamber within the nozzle. Additionally, the unified member has, on its end remote from the orifice, a concave circular cup in which the edges of the cup are turned toward the orifice, and, on its end nearest to the orifice, a core portion which cooperates with the diaphragm to form a system of turbulent channels which supply the orifice.
Abstract:
A fastener system for releasably fastening a dispenser member on a reservoir neck, the system having a fastener ring including flexible axial tabs for fastening around the reservoir neck, the tabs separated by axial slots; and a locking sleeve engaged around the fastener ring to lock the tabs in engagement around the neck. The sleeve forms a plurality of locking sectors that engage the tabs to lock them around the neck and a plurality of non-locking sectors not in contact with the ring. The sleeve is movable about the ring between an assembled position and a disassembled position in which the locking sectors are situated at the slots so as to enable the tabs to deform in order to disengage from the neck.
