  • Patent number: 7748580
    Abstract: A fluid dispenser head for associating with a fluid reservoir (1), the head having: a stationary base (2) formed by, or for mounting on, the reservoir; a rotary actuator element (3) mounted in rotary manner on the base (2) so as to turn about an axis of rotation between two extreme abutment positions; and a dispenser orifice (30) that can be closed selectively by turning the element on the base. The two extreme abutment positions define two open positions of the dispenser orifice separated by at least one position in which the dispenser orifice is closed. The dispenser orifice (30) is situated on the axis of rotation of the element on the base.
