VALVE CARTRIDGE FOR ACTUATORS OF A RANGE OF PACKAGING, having an independent complementary valve mechanism (1) to be mounted directly on the internal region of an outlet nozzle (2) of a known actuator (3) of a usual packaging (4), which actuator is traditionally combined with a pump-type mechanism (5) for extracting the product (P) contained in said packaging (4) and, accordingly, said packaging has a seal-tight upper closing part (6) that forms the body housing the extractor pump-type mechanism (5), the upper part of which is in communication with the outlet nozzle (2), while the lower part is in communication with the inside of the packaging (4), where it produces a vacuum, negative pressure or positive pressure, sufficient to move the product (P) to the outlet nozzle (2), containing an inlet duct (7) and an outlet duct (8), and in the latter there is mounted the independent complementary valve mechanism (1) which alters said stream of the semi-solid product (P) turning it into a drip, trickle or spray.

A pump for dispensing a fluid, has a pump head , a piston body with a piston, a pump chamber limited by a pump chamber body, an inlet valve and an outlet valve, the piston being moveable by respective movement of the pump head between an upper starting position and a lower end position. A return stroke force for a return stroke from the lower end position into the upper starting position is provided by a bellows, formed by two bellows arranged one above the other, Each of the bellows is folded up, when moving the pump head into the lower end position, by exerting a compression force on the pump head, the first bellows receiving the compression force by direct engagement with the pump head, the second bellows receiving the compression force only by engagement with the first bellows.

A liquid foam composition and a foam dispenser. The liquid foam composition includes a combination of water, a surfactant, and a emulsifier. The foam dispenser includes a container containing the liquid foam composition. The foam dispenser further includes a foam dispensing pump having mesh within a liquid passage, a closure securing the foam dispensing pump assembly within the container, and a nozzle operably connected to the foam dispensing pump and extending from the closure. The nozzle is fluidly connected to the liquid passage.

A fluid delivery system for dispensing fluid can include a dispenser, such as a trigger engine-type dispenser (100), configured to draw fluid up from a container. A nozzle assembly can include a nozzle (160), and a nozzle slide (112). The nozzle slide can be configured to slide and/or rotate relative to the shroud (102) to provide different dispensing modes. In alternative examples, the nozzle (160) can be configured to rotate in 30 degree increments relative to the shroud (102) to provide the different dispensing modes or the nozzle assembly can include a nozzle extension, and the nozzle extension can be configured to rotate relative to the shroud to provide different dispensing patterns out of the nozzle. In another example a first nozzle can be configured to provide one or more dispensing modes, and a second nozzle can be configured to provide a different dispensing mode than the first nozzle. Methods of dispensing fluids and methods of assembling fluid dispensers are also disclosed.

In a foamer dispenser, a depressing head includes: a head main unit with a top wall portion arranged above the stem and with an attachment cylindrical portion that extends downwardly from the top wall portion and is attached to the stem; and an exterior cylindrical portion that is provided beneath the top wall portion and surrounds the attachment cylindrical portion and the guide cylindrical portion from an outer side in a radial direction. An inside of the exterior cylindrical portion is communicable with an inside of the cylinder for air through an inside of the guide cylindrical portion. The head main unit and the exterior cylindrical portion are formed as separate entities and are fitted to each other. In an upper end portion of the exterior cylindrical portion, intake holes are formed that penetrate through the exterior cylindrical portion in a radial direction and open toward an upward direction.

The invention relates to a device for packaging and dispensing a product, comprising a pump head (1) that can be actuated by applying pressure along a central longitudinal axis (A-A) for a product dispensing operation, and a support device which is associated with this pump head and is fixed to the opening (2) of a bottle containing the product, this support device comprising a lock (6) held on said opening and a locking arrangement (7) comprising at least one locking tab (8) that can be moved by applying pressure to at least one lateral contact area (9) and bears a locking cam (10) of the pump head, said cam (10) being arranged under the pump head (1) and forming a stop for blocking the internal end (1A) of the pump head, in a non-actuated locked position.

According to the invention, the device comprises at least one said lateral contact area (9) borne by a skirt section borne by a radially elastically deformable ring bearing two said locking tabs that are arranged in a diametrically opposite manner, this skirt section being arranged at an equal distance from each of these tabs, and said cam (10) consisting of a radial flange borne by each of said locking tabs parallel to said central longitudinal axis.

Various embodiments are directed to a fluid container comprising at least two fluid dispensing paths, wherein the fluid container comprises a container body and a fluid dispenser, wherein the fluid dispenser comprises a dispenser body connected to the container and a bottom portion enclosing the container. The dispenser body comprises a flow path extending through the bottom portion to a flow path exit, and a conduit aperture extending through the bottom portion and configured to accept a flexible conduit therein. A dispenser cap is operably connected to the dispenser body, wherein the dispenser cap comprises a fluid pump configured to pump fluid from the container via the flexible conduit. The dispenser cap is operable between a closed configuration in which the flow path exit is sealed and an open configuration in which the flow path exit is open, enabling fluid to flow out of the container via the flow path.

A fluid dispenser including a body, a chamber coupled to or formed as part of the body and configured to contain a quantity of fluid, and a piston coupled to the body and rotatable within the chamber to different position. The piston is movable relative to the chamber in a first direction along an axis to draw fluid into the chamber, and the piston is movable relative to the chamber in a second direction opposite the first direction to discharge fluid from the chamber. The piston has stroke lengths that are selectable via the different rotational positions of the piston and that are associated with metered quantities of fluid to be drawn into the chamber. An anti-reversal feature is disposed between the piston and the body. The anti-reversal feature inhibits reversal of the piston during movement of the piston in the first direction or the second direction.

Apparatuses suited for use with, for example, fluid cosmetic products. In some embodiments, the present apparatuses include an outer sleeve, a dispenser mechanism, and an inner container. In these embodiments, the dispenser mechanism is coupled to the outer sleeve and the inner container is removably coupled to the outer sleeve.

A child-resistant closure system for a container comprises a protective cap, a dispensing tip, and a cylindrical base. The dispensing tip includes a pair of buttons adapted to control whether the dispensing tip is in a locked condition so as to prevent actuation or an unlocked condition so as to permit actuation, via the shoulders, of a sprayer pump unit that is partially contained within the dispensing tip. The cylindrical base has a pair of spaced apart upwardly extending legs. In an locked condition of the dispensing tip, the upwardly extending legs are not aligned with slots defined in a horizontal circumferential portion of the dispensing tip such that downward movement of the dispensing tip in relation to the base is blocked by the upwardly extending legs to prohibit actuation of the sprayer pump unit and to lock the dispensing tip.
