  • Publication number: 20230264868
    Abstract: Fluid product dispensing device having a dispensing member with a ring, and a safety cap removably secured to the ring. The cap has, on its lower edge, two diametrically opposite internal profiles and two diametrically opposite external markings, the internal profiles offset by 90° with respect to the external markings, the ring having two diametrically opposite external profiles that match to the internal profiles, the internal and external profiles engaging with one another when the cap is in the secured position. To be removed the cap requires first a radial pressure on the external markings of the cap disengaging the internal profiles from the external profiles, then rotation. Each external profile of the ring has a radially projecting projection in the shape of an inverted T, with an axially oriented central branch connected at its lower end to two lateral branches extending laterally on either side of the central branch.

  • Patent number: 11618045
    Abstract: A pump for a fluid product having a pump body held in place by a valve holder fastened in the pump body; a piston sliding around a rod, provided with an inner axial channel axially closed on the lower side of the rod and communicating with the outside of the rod via a radial orifice, the piston having an outer sealing lip and an inner sealing lip; a gland having upwards an oblique or frustoconical surface of inclination appropriate to that of the inner sealing lip of the piston; an actuating spring between the rod and piston; and a return spring between the valve holder and the rod, urging the piston towards its rest position. The valve holder has an axial sleeve having an axial rib forming a mechanical stop in the actuating position between the lower axial end of the rod and the rib.

  • Patent number: 6920702
    Abstract: A cooling grate for bulk material, having a carrying plate for accommodating a layer of the material for cooling, and having conveying elements by means of which the material for cooling is conveyed in a conveying direction on the resting carrying plate and which comprise pushers, which are arranged in a movable manner on that side of the carrying plate which is subjected to the action of material for cooling, and a drive, which is arranged on the other side of the carrying plate and is intended for executing a lifting movement, each pusher being assigned an opening in the carrying plate and a transmission member, which is guided thereby and connects the pusher to the drive. The carrying plate is provided, at the openings, with in each case one collar, which at least at the front and rear, as seen in the conveying direction, has a seal acting between the transmission member and collar.
