Publication number: 20080110934Abstract: The present invention relates to a fluid dispenser member comprising a body (1), a pusher (2) axially displaceable between a rest position and a depressed position, the pusher forming a fluid dispenser orifice (24), and a flexible part (3) connecting the body to the pusher. The part forms return spring means (35) urging the pusher towards the rest position. The part also forms the moving member (38) of an outlet valve. The part also comprises support means (33) engaged with the body, and anchor means (37) engaged with the pusher. The support means are surrounded by the anchor means. The part includes an elastically deformable portion (34) that extends between the support means and the anchor means. The elastically deformable portion (34) constitutes both the return spring means (35) and the outlet valve moving member (38).Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2005Publication date: May 15, 2008Applicant: AIRLESSYSTEMSInventor: Alain Behar

Publication number: 20040188462Abstract: The invention concerns a fluid product dispenser comprising a gas reservoir (10), a fluid product reservoir (20), a dispensing head comprising at least one dispensing orifice (30). The gas reservoir and the fluid product reservoir are connected to the head so that their contents can communicate with said at least one dispensing orifice. The dispenser comprises a movable actuation wall (14; 24) to simultaneously generate a pressure state in the gas and fluid product reservoirs and thus force the fluid product and the gas through the said at least one dispensing orifice.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 26, 2003Publication date: September 30, 2004Applicant: AIRLESSYSTEMSInventors: Laurent Decottignies, Alain Behar
