The stopper comprises a plurality of through holes.

DISPENSER PUMPS AND DISPENSERS

A dispenser pump has a plunger operable in a body including an outer cylinder body having a vent opening in its sidewall and a body insert fitting into the top of the outer body and providing an external collar through which the plunger stem operates. The body insert has lock-down threads to lock down the plunger for shipping. The insert also has formations for blocking or unblocking the vent opening by rotation between the outer body and body insert, driven by rotation of the plunger head which makes a catch engagement with the top of the body insert. This plunger head rotation is the locking or unlocking action for the plunger lock-down. Blocking the vent during shipping reduces leakage.

Discharge head, and liquid dispenser comprising such a discharge head
11066218 · 2021-07-20 · ·

Discharge head for a liquid dispenser including a housing, a coupling device for attachment to a liquid store, a discharge opening through which liquid is dispensed and an outlet channel extending from an inlet region, pointing in the direction of the liquid store, up to the discharge opening and via which the discharge opening is supplied with liquid. A throttle device is arranged in the outlet channel and includes a throttle channel for reducing liquid pressure and/or liquid flow through the throttle device. The throttle device is designed in the form of a dynamic throttle device, in which a free cross section of the throttle channel is reduced in size with increasing pressure prevailing at the throttle device, or with greater liquid flow flowing through the throttle device.

Outlet valve arrangements for enhanced pump efficiency

A dispenser includes a housing, an inverted container disposed in the housing, a outlet nozzle, a pump, a first check valve, and a second check valve. The container holds a fluid. The pump is disposed between the container and the outlet nozzle. The pump includes a pump inlet in fluid communication with the container, a pump outlet in fluid communication with the outlet nozzle, and a pump chamber in fluid communication with the pump inlet and the pump outlet. The pump chamber is movable between an expanded position and a compressed position. The first check valve is disposed between the pump and the outlet nozzle, and the first check valve has a first cracking pressure. The second check valve is disposed between the first check valve and the outlet nozzle, and the second check valve has a second cracking pressure. The second cracking pressure of the second check valve is greater than the first cracking pressure of the first check valve.

Liquid pump capable of achieving pressure equilibrium

A liquid pump capable of achieving pressure equilibrium includes a body, piston member, unidirectional input valve, unidirectional output valve, input inner-pipe, unidirectional gas-feeding hermetic-seal valve and input outer-pipe. The body has an input opening, output opening and piston opening. The piston member has a piston space communicating with the piston opening. The unidirectional input valve includes an input plug and input resilient element. The input plug abuts against the input opening. The unidirectional output valve includes an output plug and output resilient element. The output plug abuts against the output opening from outside. An input channel of the input inner-pipe communicates with the input opening. Direction of gas-flow between the unidirectional gas-feeding hermetic-seal valve and the input inner-pipe is opposite input direction of the input channel. The input outer-pipe has an input portion communicating with the input channel. A gas-feeding-channel is defined between a gas-feeding-portion and the input inner-pipe.

Dispensing device for fluid products
10946400 · 2021-03-16 · ·

A dispensing device for fluid products includes a draw-up pipe, a main body and a dispensing head. The main body includes a pumping system, connected to the draw-up pipe and a fastening ring nut, for fixing the dispensing device to a container for fluid products. The fastening ring nut and the pumping system are mutually coupled for forming between them an air compensation duct which allows the selective passage of air from the outside towards the inside of the container during the operation of the dispensing device. The dispensing head in turn includes a cup, which has in a relative lower portion a passage, and a valve, housed in the lower portion of the cup, configured to adopt a first configuration, or open configuration, wherein the passage is put in fluid communication with the pumping system and a second configuration, or closed configuration, wherein the passage is occluded.

Dispenser pumps and dispensers

A dispenser pump has a plunger (3) operable in a body including an outer cylinder body (6) having a vent opening (66) in its sidewall and a body insert (7) fitting into the top of the outer body and providing an external collar through which the plunger stem operates. The body insert (7) has lock-down threads (722) to lock down the plunger for shipping. The insert (7) also has formations for blocking or unblocking the vent opening (66) by rotation between the outer body (6) and body insert (7), driven by rotation of the plunger head (31) which makes a catch engagement with the top of the body insert (7). This plunger head rotation is the locking or unlocking action for the plunger lock-down. Blocking the vent during shipping reduces leakage.

Outlet valve arrangements for enhanced pump efficiency

A dispenser includes a housing, an inverted container disposed in the housing, a outlet nozzle, a pump, a first check valve, and a second check valve. The pump is disposed between the container and the outlet nozzle. The pump includes a pump inlet a pump outlet, and a pump chamber. The pump chamber is movable between an expanded position and a compressed position. The first check valve is disposed between the pump and the outlet nozzle, and the first check valve has a first cracking pressure. The second check valve is disposed between the first check valve and the outlet nozzle, and the second check valve has a second cracking pressure. The second cracking pressure of the second check valve is greater than the first cracking pressure of the first check valve.
