Patent number: 11820546Abstract: The device (100) for packaging and dispensing a product, liquid or in gel form, optionally for an ophthalmic application, comprises a container (1) containing the product to be dispensed by a dispensing head (7), as well as a refilling and filtering assembly for the air entering the container (1) after a dispensing, the dispensing head delimiting one or more dosing chambers (5) and including at its end a flexible part (7) which can be actuated to allow the release of the dose of product in a compressed state of said chamber (5). The air refilling and filtering assembly has a sterilizing filter (11) which cooperates with a check valve (12), this assembly (11, 12) being typically located in a central or inner portion of the head (7). The supply of outside air is accomplished by means of a channel (16) leading to an outer orifice (10) able to be obturated by a cover (15).Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2021Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Inventor: Jacques Pozzi

Patent number: 9004317Abstract: A device for packaging and dispensing a flowable product comprises a casing comprising a nozzle for dispensing the product and a container designed to contain the product to be packaged. The casing comprises a rigid bottom, an air renewal and filtration assembly, a filter element, and an air inlet passage located in said rigid bottom. The nozzle comprises a tapered portion that defines a free end of the nozzle, an actuating portion resiliently movable between an engagement position and a rest position. A dose-defining chamber may be isolated from the air contained in the container and may have a determined volume in the rest position. The engagement position may be obtained by engaging the actuating portion against a stationary wall portion, so as to empty the chamber and expel a dose exactly corresponding to the determined volume of the chamber.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2014Date of Patent: April 14, 2015Assignee: SivelInventor: Jacques Pozzi

Patent number: 4809888Abstract: A metering valve adapted to be mounted on a container for delivering a liquid under pressure contained in the container, of the type comprising a metering head with an elastic membrane, an end-sleeve, a valve body and a piston sliding in the valve body and formed with a blind central bore and a radial throughgoing hole opening into the central bore. The valve body is made of two portions, a lower portion positioned to be located inside the container when the valve is mounted on the container and an upper portion applied on the lower portion positioned to be inside the container, but extending outside the container on a major portion thereof when the valve is so mounted. The upper portion of the valve body is formed with a bore in which slides a piston limited upwardly by a shoulder forming an abutment for the piston. The piston is formed with an outer annular groove in its central portion surrounded by two O-rings. The radial throughgoing hole of the piston opens into the annular groove.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 1984Date of Patent: March 7, 1989Assignee: Societe de Promotion, Recherche et Innovation TechnologiqueInventors: Catherine Suck, Pierre Bret, Jacques Pozzi
