The present device dispenses product from a pressurized container. The device has a metered valve that dispenses a predetermined fixed quantity of product upon actuation. The metered valve can be configured by the customer with a spacer to affect the amount of product continually metered.

A child resistant nasal sprayer assembly includes a cap body having a base portion and an upstanding wall extending axially in an upward direction. An actuator is rotationally and axially slideably assembled within an interior of the upstanding wall. A safety button extends through the actuator and into a receiving notch formed in the upstanding wall. The safety button restricts motion of the actuator when placed in a locked configuration and enables motion of the actuator when placed in an unlocked configuration. The safety button is integral with a ring portion. The ring portion provides a biasing force to the button to retain the button in the locked position until purposely unlocked. Once unlocked, the operator compresses a pair of winglets, which operates a pump that dispenses medicinal composition stored within the bottle through a nozzle.

A metering valve for dispensing fluid, the metering valve comprising: a valve body (10) containing a metering chamber (20); and a valve member (30) that slides axially in said valve body (10) between a rest position and a dispensing position, for selectively dispensing the contents of said metering chamber (20); said valve member (30) including a collar (320) and being urged towards its rest position by a spring (8) that co-operates firstly with said valve body (10) and secondly with said valve member (30), said valve body (10) including a valve-body cylindrical portion (15) in which said collar (320) of said valve member (30) slides between its rest and dispensing positions, said valve-body cylindrical portion (15) including a plurality of longitudinal splines (100) that extend over at least a fraction of the height of said valve-body cylindrical portion (15), said longitudinal splines (100) projecting radially inwards and acting on said collar (320) of said valve member (30) for substantially centering said collar (320) in said valve-body cylindrical portion (15).

A stem (1) for a two-way valve has a main body (10) outer face that is substantially cylindrical about a main axis, with (i) a first tubular wall (11) closed at its lower end by a first bottom wall (13) and open at its upper end (111), defining a central
channel (113); (ii) a second tubular wall (12), concentric with the first tubular wall (11) and partially surrounding it, closed at its lower end (122) by a second bottom wall (14) and open at its upper end (121), defining an annular channel (123) around the central channel (113), one or more through-holes (124) bringing the inside of the annular channel (123) in contact with the cylindrical outer face of the main
body (10); and (iii) a tubular insert (20) dimensioned so as to be able to be inserted into the annular channel (123).

A metered dose inhaler (1) for dispensing aerosol doses comprises an actuation housing (2) adapted to receive a canister (4). The canister (4) is configured to move from a rest position to an activation position in which a valve (7) of the canister (4), positioned at a valve end (8) of the canister (4), is depressed against a bottom portion of the actuation housing such that an aerosol dose is released. The inhaler (1) further comprises a mechanical dose (10) counter comprising an indicator member which is constructed and arrangement to undergo a predetermined count-indicating motion when an aerosol dose is released. Moreover, the inhaler (1) comprises a triggering unit (11) for triggering at least one electrical switch (12) when the canister (4) is moved from the rest position to the activation position whereby an electrical signal is generated. Also part of the inhaler (1) is a processing unit for processing the signal generated by the switch (12) upon being triggered.

A hand operable inhalator for dispensing a powdery substance, in particular a pharmaceutical substance, with a supply chamber, a discharge channel and a dosing chamber, wherein the discharge channel protrudes into the supply chamber, and the dosing chamber and discharge channel can be moved relative to each other. In order to indicate an inhalator for dispensing a powdery substance that makes the dosing chamber advantageously fillable, the discharge channel can be rotated around a rotational axis, and that the dosing chamber can be filled while the discharge channel rotates. The inhalator can have a dosing chamber that can be moved from a closed into an open state and vice versa. The inhalator can have a discharge channel that incorporates a turbulence means, which has a helically running wall and is to carry a flow while discharging air provided with the substance.
