A pressure control device for pressure packaging based on a disc with fluid connection and a collecting basin, with associated closing means. The closing mechanism in the pressure control device is no longer based on a cylinder with a central opening in the separation wall and closing-off of the opening by means of a piston with stem. The proposal is extremely simple, compact and easy to assemble. The use of O-rings is superfluous. A method for manufacturing a pressure control system and a kit of parts for the assembly thereof.

Device for dispensing a fluid product, having a reservoir containing the fluid product and a metering valve having a valve body containing a metering chamber, a valve shut-off element sliding axially in the valve body between an rest position and a dispensing position in order to dispense the contents of the metering chamber. The valve shut-off element is urged towards its rest position by a valve spring, the reservoir containing a follower-piston and a piston spring that axially urges the follower-piston towards the metering valve, the follower-piston being suitable for axially sliding in the reservoir in a sealed manner after each actuation to compensate for the volume of each dispensed dose.

The present disclosure relates to a valve for dispensing flowable product from a container under pressure, the valve comprising a stem, a seal coupled to the stem, and a mounting cup configured to mount the valve to the container, wherein each of the stem, seal, and mounting cup comprises a recyclable plastic, and wherein the valve is free from a gasket configured to surround an opening of the container to form a seal between the valve and the container. Also provided herein is a container for dispensing a flowable product under pressure comprising the valve as described above.

A label printing device includes: a conveying unit configured to convey a mountless label; a shaft portion configured to change a conveying direction of the mountless label; a cutting unit configured to cut the mountless label of which the conveying direction is changed by the shaft portion and issue a label; and a controller configured to control the conveying unit and the cutting unit. The controller executes a preparatory operation mode in which the mountless label is conveyed a predetermined distance longer than a length of a portion extending from the shaft portion to the cutting unit in the mountless label by the conveying unit and is cut by the cutting unit when a label is not issued for more than a predetermined time.

By means of selective laser exposure and subsequent etching away of the exposed regions (selective laser-induced etching), a cylindrical-conical cavity (15) having a mainly tangential fluid inlet (16) and axial fluid outlet (17) is formed in the quartz glass nozzle body (14) having a generally cylindrical shape.

The present disclosure describes devices, systems, and methods for the production and/or delivery of a foamable and/or flowable material for consumption, such as by direct application to a consumer, such as directly to the mouth of the consumer. A device and/or system for converting a material from a first, unfoamed state to a second, foamed state is provided, and a device and/or system for converting a material from a first, non or semi-flowable state to a second, flowable state is provided.

A pressure pack dispenser (100) for dispensing a product comprises a cylindrical container (401) with a product outlet through which the product is dispensed, a composite piston (408) movably mounted within the container, and a pressurised propellant. The composite piston comprises a first upper piston (409A) coupled to a second lower piston (409B) to permit limited relative axial movement and a viscous sealant material (410) located between the first and second pistons. The propellant comprises a compressed gas which remains in the gaseous phase as the piston (408) moves from a first full position to a second exhausted position, or a mixture of a liquid propellant and a compressed gas selected such that in the full position the mixture is at a pressure greater than the vapour pressure of the liquid propellant. A clearance is provided between the second lower piston (409B) and the container wall (401A) which is filled with the sealant (410) as the composite piston moves to expel product. The viscosity of the sealant and clearance are selected such that a thin film of viscous sealant material (410A) is left on the container wall of the propellant chamber, thereby reducing friction between the composite piston (408) and the container wall (401A). The sealant (410) preferably comprises a mixture of glycerine and starch, and has a viscosity of less than 100 poise and less than 4000 poise at 20 C.
