Abstract:
A fluid dispenser device comprising a fluid reservoir (10), and a dispensing member (20), such as a metering valve, fitted to said reservoir (10), said reservoir (10) and said valve (20) being assembled into a body (30) incorporating a dispensing orifice (31), said device being characterized in that it includes an adjustment element (40) disposed between the reservoir (10) and the body (30), said adjustment element (40) being provided with adapter means (45) that are movable and/or deformable and that co-operate with the body (30) and/or with the reservoir (10) while the reservoir (10) is being assembled into the body (30), thereby compensating for the manufacturing tolerances of said body (30) and/or of said reservoir and/or said dispensing member (20).
Abstract:
A fluid dispenser device including a fluid dispenser member (10) such as a pump or a valve, and a dispenser head (20) provided with a dispensing orifice, said fluid dispenser device being characterized in that said device is provided with dispensing detector means (30, 31) for detecting dispensing of a dose of fluid, said detector means (30, 31) being adapted to deliver a signal for informing the user that a dose of fluid has indeed been dispensed by said pump, said detector means comprising a detector (30) for detecting the fluid going from said dispenser member to said dispenser orifice.
Abstract:
A fluid dispenser device comprising: a body (1) incorporating a dispenser orifice (5); a reservoir (10) containing the fluid; and a dispenser member (15), such as a metering valve or pump, for selectively dispensing the fluid contained in the reservoir (10), the device being characterized in that it further comprises a dose indicator comprising electronic display means (20), said display means (20) including a permanent display member (21) that does not require any energy in order to keep the display unchanged, and that requires only a small amount of energy in order to change said display.
Abstract:
An inhaler (1) for dispensing accurate and reproducible doses of powder. The inhaler includes an expulsion channel (2) opening out in an outlet orifice (3), and is characterized by a combination of or: a pre-dosing device (100) having the powder in individual reservoirs (101), each reservoir (101) containing one dose of powder, and; a transfer device (200) for transferring a dose of powder in full into the expulsion channel (2) on each actuation of the inhaler. The inhaler also includes an air flow source (300) having a pump (301) triggerable by the user the air flow source (300) sending a flow of air into the expulsion channel (2) towards the outlet orifice (3) to expel the dose of powder.
Abstract:
A compressed gas device is disclosed for spraying a single dose of a fluid substance in finely divided form. The device comprises a tank containing the single dose having an inlet orifice for compressed gas, and an outlet orifice. The device further comprises a manually actuated gas pump having a gas supply communicating with the inlet orifice of the tank via an intermediate channel. The intermediate channel has a length of narrowed section that is closed in a sealed manner by a plug which is held in the narrowed section so that when the pressure of the gas supplied by the pump reaches a predetermined threshold, the plug is expelled towards the tank to open the intermediate channel. The device includes an abutment element to limit the displacement of the plug towards the outlet orifice of the tank of substance. The abutment element is constructed to guarantee that the compressed air can continue to floe through the outlet orifice when the plug is in its abutment position.
