  • Patent number: 7882988
    Abstract: A pump for dispensing a liquid product, including a pump body and a dispensing head manually movable on the latter, the head including a cylinder forming a dosage chamber of the pump, slidingly mounted in the pump body, and a channel allowing the passage of the product or air from the dosage chamber towards an ejection orifice. The rod includes means for airtightly sealing the channel consisting of a peripheral shoulder capable of coming to a rest against a complementary sealing seat arranged in the cylinder, the opening of the channel being performed by separating the sealing seat from the cylinder opposite the shoulder of the rod after the rod reaching its stop early during the axial movement of the cylinder in the pump body.

  • Patent number: 7866513
    Abstract: A device for dispensing and receiving a liquid or semi-liquid product via a metering chamber of a pump body. The device includes a piston which is fixably mounted in the pump body and is provided with an end sealingly engaged into the chamber. The piston end is provided with an elastically deformable membrane put thereon. The membrane includes a transversal wall forming an input check valve which is provided with a central supply orifice sealingly closable by a protruded element forming the check valve seat on the end of the piston. The membrane includes a fixing cylindrical skirt which is provided with at least one sealing peripheral lip slidingly contacting the internal wall of the chamber. The skirt forms a valve when it is deformed by contact with a projection bearing by the internal wall of the chamber in such a way that the air compressed by the piston is released into the chamber by the pump priming.

  • Patent number: 7780044
    Abstract: The invention is a pump for dispensing liquid or semi-liquid product, designed and intended to be used in particular in the pharmaceutical or cosmetic field. The pump has a needle valve and a dispensing head manually movable on a pump housing between an inactive position and a dispensing position. The head includes a first cylinder forming a metering chamber for the pump, which draws in fluid from a container's reservoir by an intake tube and a check valve. A piston sealingly secured to the metering chamber pushes fluid through a passage into a second dosage chamber that is sealed from the dispensing orifice by a biased needle valve that is biased by a spring that is sealingly isolated from the second dosage chamber, the chamber that holds the elastic spring has a conduit that allows a user to test and verify that the second dosage chamber does not leak.

  • Patent number: 7338228
    Abstract: An application device for a liquid product, contained in a reservoir bottle having a lid for closing the opening of the bottle, through which at least one capillary migration channel for the liquid product passes towards a wetable surface on contact therewith is provided. Several similar capillary channels are preferably provided, which can alternatively function as openings for the entry of air through the lid. One of the ends of each channel opens outside the lid. The other end opens in a collector tube for the liquid product, contained in the bottle. The collector tube is embodied to hold a fixed amount of liquid product against gravity by capillary action, until the above is drawn off by capillary migration through the lid channels.
