The invention relates to a secure shell for a container (200) with a metering pump for dispensing fluid, enabling secure metering and traceable dispensing. The shell (100) is rigid and includes a first outlet port (111) intended to face the ejector port (211) of the pump (210) and at least one actuator port (101) intended in use to receive an actuator rod (400-401) supported by an automatic dispenser in order to actuate the mechanical pump, the actuator port having a section that is smaller than the section of a three-year-old child's finger.

A device for delivering a predetermined amount of at least one substance to a body orifice of a subject includes a) a container for containing said at least one substance; b) a delivery end for placement in proximity to the orifice, the delivery end being in fluid communication with the container; c) a valve mechanically connectable to said container, characterized by at least two configurations: (i) an ACTIVE CONFIGURATION in which said valve enables delivery of predetermined amount of said substance from said container to said body orifice via said delivery end; and, (ii) an INACTIVE CONFIGURATION, in which said valve prevents delivery of said predetermined amount of said substance from said container to said body orifice; d) a trigger mechanism adapted to reconfigure said valve from said INACTIVE CONFIGURATION to said ACTIVE CONFIGURATION, and vice versa; and e) a fluid tight chamber.

A bladder-type dispensing pump (100) comprises a push nozzle (110) and a container cap (120), said nozzle (110) and cap (120) being interconnected. The push nozzle (110) is provided with a bladder portion (111). The bladder portion (111) is able to deform such that the volume of the internal cavity thereof may change. The bladder-type dispensing pump (100) is further provided with an elastic return mechanism. A portion of the elastic return mechanism is connected to or in contact with the bladder portion (111). When the bladder portion (111) is depressed so as to deform, the elastic return mechanism deforms with it, and when pressure acting on the bladder portion (111) is removed, the elastic return mechanism returns to its non-deformed state, causing the bladder portion (111) to reset.

The actuator for an aerosol dispenser is provided with an actuator body which has a skirt, a finger pad, an outlet conduit having a portion (132a) which protrudes from the skirt towards the outside, and a cap (20) that can be moved between an open position in which the finger pad is accessible to a user and a closed position in which the finger pad is inaccessible to a user. The cap (20) is fixed to the skirt by a hinge (21) so that it can pivot around the hinge between the open position and the closed position, and provided with a slot (24) which straddles the protruding portion (132a) of the outlet conduit when the cap is in the closed position or close to the closed position.

Dispensing systems (100) having wands (110) for distributing a spray away from a user include moveable wands (110), wands for locking actuation of the dispensing system (210), wands and dispensers providing gravity fed dispensing solutions (410) for battery-operated devices (500) and improved dispensers.

A spray bottle assembly includes a bottle having a neck, and a spray head assembly having a base cap configured to removably attach to the neck. The base cap has a feature that rotationally locks the base cap relative to the neck to constrain the spray head assembly in a predetermined plane. A multi-label system for a spray bottle includes: at least one strip, the strip including connected labels with differing information printed on each side, each label including a ring for positioning on a neck of the spray bottle. A pumping mechanism for a spray bottle includes: a unibody plunger having a sleeve section that variably inverts and overlaps an end thereof thus defining an internal volume that varies with the disposition of the sleeve section relative to the end. A pivoting head section that allows servicing of functional seal components.

The invention relates to a device for dosing liquid from a liquid-receiving element (2), in which the liquid-receiving element (2) comprises an outlet valve (1), and a dosing system is available, said dosing system consisting of a first actuating wing (4) and a second actuating wing (5), which are arranged around the liquid-receiving element (2) and can be moved in relation to each other such that they compress the liquid-receiving element (2), a mechanical dosing stop being available.

In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, Flair® based aerosol-type devices can be provided. Such devices utilize a combination of Flair® technology, pre-compression valves and aerosol like pressurization of the dispensed liquid. Such a dispensing device has a main body comprising a pressure chamber, the latter being provided with a pressure piston and a pressure spring. The device further has a piston and a piston chamber which draws liquid from a reservoir and fills the pressure chamber with that liquid as a user operates the trigger in various compression and release strokes. The piston chamber has both an inlet valve and an outlet valve. In a dispensing head a valve is provided to regulate the strength of the flow and preclude leakage. Once the liquid is sufficiently pressurized, it can be dispensed by a user opening an activation valve, such as by pressing on an activation button, and spray can be abruptly stopped by a user ceasing to push on such button. Or, for example, in alternate embodiments without an activation button, once the liquid is sufficiently pressurized, continuous spray occurs until the pressure chamber is emptied. By repeatedly pumping the trigger before the pressure chamber is fully emptied, continuous spray can be achieved. By designing the input volume to be amply greater than the volume of the pressure chamber, continuous spray with fewer pumping strokes can be implemented.

This application relates to a fluid dispenser. In one aspect, the dispenser includes a body including an opening and an accommodating space for accommodating fluid, a lid for closing the opening, a pressing unit disposed on a side of the body, and a discharge unit disposed on the side at a position diagonally higher than the pressing unit and configured to discharge a predetermined amount of the fluid from the accommodating space when a pressure is applied to the pressing unit. The dispenser may also include a pump mechanism configured to pump the predetermined amount of the fluid from the accommodating space to the discharge unit when the pressure is applied to the pressing unit, and an air intake formed on a part of the lid and configured to flow air into the accommodating space when the predetermined amount of the fluid is discharged from the accommodating space.

A reusable, refillable airless fluid pump dispenser that is leakproof and designed specifically for travel. To operate the dispenser, the user presses an ergonomic depression on the top of the dispenser to engage the pump and cause a platform within the dispenser to rise, evenly distributing a fluid from the dispenser. The user can twist off the top and remove it from the body of the dispenser, which permits access to the interior of the dispenser to refill or wash as needed. The user may access the platform, raising it or pushing it back down to either adjust the amount of product they would like to fill or to reuse once product has been depleted. The attached outer cap of the top twists to lock, both blocking the nozzle from distributing any product and also preventing the top from depressing and engaging the pump.
