A dispensing device dispenses a liquid held in a container. The device includes an engagement portion for the mutual engagement of the device and the container. Drawing and dispensing means draws the liquid from the container to dispense it. A main operating body operates the drawing and dispensing means through pressure exerted along a pressing direction. The main operating body moves with respect to the engagement portion, when subjected to pressure, between a rest position and an activating position. A dispensing nozzle is fixed to the main operating body and provided with a dispensing duct suited to dispense the liquid. The dispensing nozzle is switched from the main operating body, through a rotary movement, between a dispensing position and a non-dispensing position. Constraining means prevents the movement of the main operating body along the pressing direction when the dispensing nozzle is in the non-dispensing position.

The actuator includes a shroud adapted to be situated on an aerosol container over the stem and an actuation member mounted on and moveable within the shroud to depress the stem by the application of an external force applied to the top surface of the actuation member. The actuation member includes a nozzle and a conduit for connecting the stem and the nozzle. A hood is normally positioned to block the actuation member from being moved to depress the stem. A locking member normally intersects the path of movement of the hood to lock the hood in its blocking position. The locking member has two sections both of which must be simultaneously moved to a position remote from the path of hood movement such that the hood may be moved from its blocking position, allowing the actuation member to be moved to depress the stem.

A valve for a container for dispensing pressurized fluid includes a housing which is mounted on a valve cup, a hollow stem provided in a passage of the housing which stem has at least one lateral inlet opening at its lower end and an outlet opening at its upper end, and a spring. The housing has a circumferential step-like contour with an outer, lower part and a central, upper part. The valve cup follows essentially the step-like contour line of the housing and ends horizontally on the top of the housing close to the stem and a sealing is provided on the upper side of the housing between the housing and the valve cup and which seals at the same time the valve cup against the housing and the stem against the housing.

[Problem] To provide a flow path tube that prompts gas/liquid stirring of fluids flowing through a tube channel, enables adjustment of the flow rate, and furthermore suppresses passage of foreign substances. [Solution means] A flow path tube 1 is configured by inserting and disposing within a tube channel 12 of a flow path tube body 10 at least one or more porous materials 20 having a continuous void structure and a necessary length/a necessary diametrical dimension. Moreover, at least one or more ejection holes 18 are formed at given positions in the flow path tube body 10 or in the porous material 20 to form a jet nozzle tube 14 using the flow path tube 1. Furthermore, a valve body 26 is attached to the base end 10c of the flow path tube body 10 to form an aerosol valve tube 16 using the flow path tube 1.

A system for the application of foamable chemical compositions is presented. The application system comprises an ergonomic handle/adapter removably attachable to a pressurized source of a foam product, the handle having inlet and outlet orifices or openings for flow of the foam product from the pressurized source to a nozzle, the nozzle having an outlet orifice for dispensing the foam product and an inlet orifice for connecting to a flexible tubular connecting member which interconnects the outlet orifice of the handle/adapter with the inlet orifice of the nozzle. The nozzle of the present invention includes design features to produce a fan shaped spray pattern of the foam product and to reduce the incidence of leakage or dripping of either moisture or the foam product at the nozzle's outlet. The tubular connecting member is flexible and therefore allows a user to spray foam into hard to reach places.

Provided is a liquid discharging vessel including: an application tip; and a nozzle exposed upwardly from the application tip by means of an external force and having an outlet adapted to discharge content to top of the application tip, wherein the nozzle moves downwardly from the application tip to close the outlet.

A flow modulation device 300 for controlling a rheological state of a dispensed pressurized fluid includes a porous element 304 and an exit tube. The porous element 304 is in fluid communication with a distal end of an outlet tube 303 and receives pressurized fluid in a first rheological state. The porous element 304 includes a plurality of channels that divide a flow channel into a plurality of flow paths through which the pressurized fluid flows and that modulates the flow of the pressurized fluid. The exit tube 305 includes proximal end 355 and distal end 345 and an intermediate body including a sidewall 365 defining a hollow internal lumen 375. The exit tube 305 is in fluid communication with the porous element 304 and receives the modulated pressurized fluid from the plurality of flow paths and refocuses the fluid to dispense the pressurized fluid in a second rheological state.

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.

The invention relates to an adapter for a product dispenser (11) with an adapter base body (19) for positioning the adapter (18) on a container opening (14) of a pressure container (12), with a swivel arrangement (23), which adjusts an actuating lever (21) with a handle (22) swivellably to the adapter base body (19), wherein the actuating lever (21) is transferable from an unlocked position (67), in which the handle (22) can be operated from a starting position (68) into an active position (69) for opening a valve (16) of the container (12), to a locked position (66), in which operation of the handle (22) is blocked.

An article includes an adapter having a flow channel extending through it, where the adapter includes a base, a neck, a bendable segment attached to the base and neck and positioned between the base and neck, and a plunger attached to the neck or bendable segment and extending within the flow channel in the bendable segment.
