An article includes a can with a valve stem and a dispensing device attached to the valve stem where the dispensing device includes a hollow base, a hollow tube attached to the hollow base the hollow tube having one or more than one hole proximate to its exit end, a sleeve with a finger pad that slides over the hollow tube and an elastic connector attaching the sleeve to at least one of the hollow base and hollow tube, and a sealing gasket residing between the hollow tube and sleeve, wherein the dispensing device can reversibly move between a closed position where the sleeve seals the one or more than one hole in the hollow tube and an open position where the one or more than one hole in the hollow tube is unsealed by the sleeve and the elastic connector provides a restoring force to the sleeve when in the open position that directs the sleeve to a closed position.

An article has a can with a valve stem and a dispensing device, the dispensing device includes a cap over the valve stem, a hollow tube extending through a slot in the cap and attached to the valve stem, a sleeve slidably extending over the hollow tube, a lever hingedly attached to the cap and operatively engaging the sleeve, an elastic feature that provides a force or causes a force to be applied to the sleeve in a direction that tries to move the sleeve to a closed position, and a sealing gasket between the sleeve and hollow tube proximate to the exit end of the hollow tube; where the sleeve seals the hollow tube when in the closed position and displacing the lever towards the can simultaneously unseals the hollow tube and tilts the valve stem, and when released allows the sleeve to restore to a closed position.

A propellantless aerosol fluid dispensing system including a reusable pressurizable canister and a disposable fluid containing pouch, the pouch including a valve assembly for dispensing the fluid.

The present invention relates to a device for spraying a product, in particular a cosmetic product, makeup product or care product, said device comprising: a container containing the product, and a dispensing head (3) comprising a body (5), and an endpiece, in particular a diffuser (7), attached to the body,
the body and the endpiece (7) being configured to allow the product to be sprayed through outlet orifices about a longitudinal axis (Y) of the endpiece, in particular in at least two different directions, which are in particular diametrically opposite, the dispensing head (3) comprising at least first (15) and second (16) chambers, in particular concentric chambers, through which the flow of product successively passes before emerging from the outlet orifices, at least one opening between the first and second concentric chambers being able to be offset angularly with respect to at least one of the outlet orifices.

Provided is a pressure reducing tilt nozzle that includes a body defining a cavity having an inlet and an outlet, and a piston disposed in the cavity. The piston is biased in a first piston position away from the inlet allowing flow through the inlet and is movable toward the inlet to a second piston position preventing flow through the inlet when pressure in the cavity overcomes a biasing force biasing the piston in the first piston position.

A pressure gauge for an aerosol container includes a scale attached to the container body and a pointer associated with and movable relative to the scale. The pointer is operatively coupled to a valve assembly of the aerosol container. The pointer moves relative to the scale in response to movement of at least a portion of the valve assembly due to internal pressure in the container body to provide a reading.

A fluid dispensing apparatus and liquid container with a fluid dispensing apparatus are provided. The fluid dispensing apparatus includes a valve body defining a bore that extends at least partially through a valve body, and an adaptor including a piercing member positioned to pierce a pierceable membrane enclosing the liquid container. The adaptor also includes a releasable fastener that cooperates with a portion of the liquid container to releasably couple the valve body to the liquid container. A liquid droplet production apparatus of the fluid dispensing apparatus controls a discharge of the liquid from the liquid container. The liquid droplet production apparatus includes a perforate membrane, and an actuator that is selectively operable to vibrate the perforate membrane and cause liquid droplets to be emitted from the perforate membrane and projected generally away from the liquid container.
