An actuator for a hand operated foam dispensing pump that utilizes a folding nozzle is presented. The folding nozzle of the actuator is configured so as to lock the actuator in place and prevent operation of the pump when the nozzle is folded. The actuator substantially reduces pump closure loosening (back-off) and nozzle breakage during shipping of a filled product by eliminating trigger handles or other conventional nozzle types which protrude from the side of the actuator. As such, the new actuator is particularly well-suited for use in e-commerce where the shipping of unboxed products is becoming increasingly common. The actuator is configured such that actuator depression (actuation) cannot occur when the folding nozzle is in a folded position.

A device for dispensing fluid products includes one or more containers, each storing one fluid product, a unique pump provided with a dosage chamber enclosing a dose of mixture of the fluid products, and including an actuating member, and a manifold associating the pump to the containers for dispensing the fluid products. The manifold includes one or more hollow tubes each extending into a container and forming a channel for the flow of the fluid product from the container towards the pump. As well, the tubes of the manifold are rigid and at least one tube of the manifold includes means for regulating the volumetric ratio of the fluid product flow, these regulating means being integrated inside the rigid tube.

This device comprises: a container defining an inner volume intended to contain the product closed off by a movable bottom and opening out through a dispensing neck; a dispensing member; a purge ring comprising a base that delimits a central orifice defining a central axis of the ring, the base having an outer contour and a side surface converging from the outer contour toward a second end of the central orifice. The device is characterized in that the purge ring comprises at least one radial opening arranged radially relative to the central axis and allowing the passage of the product from the container toward the central orifice.

The invention concerns a device (1) for dispensing a fluid (L), comprising a supporting structure (2) provided with means (3) for coupling it with a container (C) holding the fluid (L) and comprising: an outlet duct (63) for the fluid (L); a collapsible chamber (60); first valve means (25) suited to control the passage of the fluid; air refilling valve means. The air refilling valve means comprise a flexible portion (15) of an edge (14) belonging to a first element (10) of the device (1), suited to assume a closed position and an open position. The invention concerns also a system comprising a container and a device made as described above.

A pump engine assembly includes an output cylinder that may be customized to include a stop portion limiting the stroke of a piston to produce a particular output such that customized pump systems may be produced from similar parts with the exchange of only a single partthe output cylinder.

A trigger-type liquid ejector includes an ejector main body and a nozzle member. The ejector main body includes a vertical supply pipe, an ejection barrel and a trigger mechanism; and the trigger mechanism includes a main piston and a main cylinder. In the trigger-type liquid ejector, the ejector main body includes a connection tube, a closing-off plug, a reservoir cylinder, a reservoir plunger and a reservoir valve, and the ejection barrel extends forward from the reservoir cylinder.

A multi reservoir dispenser includes a first reservoir for holding a first fluid and a second reservoir for holding a second fluid. The dispenser further includes a pump mechanism that includes a pivotable trigger and a first plunger cavity that is disposed along the first flow path for receiving the first fluid and a second plunger cavity for receiving the second fluid. The pump mechanism also includes a first plunger that is disposed and movable within the first plunger cavity and a second plunger that is disposed and movable within the second plunger cavity. A selectable actuator is movable between: (a) a first position in which only the first plunger of the pump mechanism is actuated for discharging only the first fluid through a first orifice of a nozzle by causing the first fluid to flow along a first flow path; and (b) a second position in which only the second plunger of the pump mechanism is actuated for discharging only the second fluid through a second orifice of the nozzle by causing the second fluid to flow along a second flow path.

A trigger dispensing head applicable to a bottle of a trigger dispensing device is provided. The trigger dispensing head has a cylinder chamber, a main vent passage, a sleeve, a secondary vent passage, a piston, a suction duct, a dispensing duct and a labyrinth seal suitable for placing the main vent passage in fluidic connection with the external environment. The labyrinth seal is formed on either an external surface of the sleeve or an internal surface of the cylinder chamber.

A food pump is provided with a safe outlet valve and an outer mounted spring. A pressing head, a primary column, a secondary column, a piston, a pump chamber, a spring and a bottle locking cover are also provided. A lock cover for fixing the primary column to the pump chamber is fixed on the pump chamber. An outer side of an upper end of the lock cover is provided with a cover flanging which is turned outwards and then turned downwards to stretch. An inner side of a locking flanging is provided with an inner thread in threaded fit with an outer thread of a lock opening of a lock cover, such that the primary column, the secondary column, the piston, the pump chamber, the spring, a glass bead and the lock cover can be stored and transported independently, thereby matching different pressing heads and bottle locking covers.

A pump engine assembly includes an output cylinder that may be customized to include a stop portion limiting the stroke of a piston to produce a particular output such that customized pump systems may be produced from similar parts with the exchange of only a single partthe output cylinder, and wherein movement of a fluid lock in a product chamber creates a suck-back feature capable of pulling product away from a dispensing head opening.
