Abstract: A fluid dispenser device including a reservoir containing the fluid and a propellant; a metering valve mounted on the reservoir and including a metering chamber, and a valve member that is movable between a rest position and a dispensing position; and an automatic trigger system, the trigger system including an actuator element to displace one of the valve member and the reservoir relative to the other so as to bring the valve member into its dispensing position. The device also includes a brake system which co-operates with the reservoir or the valve member to slow down displacement of the valve member towards its dispensing position while the device is being actuated, and a valve-member release system that is actuated automatically when the valve member reaches its dispensing position, and which returns the valve member to its rest position independently of the position of the actuator element.

Abstract: A fluid dispenser device having a body (1), a fluid reservoir (3) containing two half-doses, a dispensing mechanism that dispenses a half-dose of fluid upon actuation, and an energy accumulation mechanism (50, 51, 55) that accumulates energy in the hand of the user and released suddenly so that each of the half-doses is dispensed in full. The dispensing mechanism includes a dispensing member (8) mounted to slide in the reservoir (3) for dispensing the fluid, an actuating element (5) mounted to move between a rest position and an actuating position and on which the user exerts an actuating force to move the dispensing member (8) inside said reservoir (3). The actuating element is mounted to move in a direction substantially transverse to the direction in which the dispensing member (8) moves, and a dose-splitting mechanism (7, 12) dispenses a half-dose of fluid each time the dispensing mechanism is actuated.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a dose indicator (A) for a fluid dispenser device (B), the indicator indicating the number of doses dispensed or the number of doses still to be dispensed. The indicator is particularly adapted to aerosols including metering valves, and presents dimensions that are very small and independent of the number of doses to be indicated.

Abstract: A fluid dispenser device including a body (1), a reservoir unit (3) having a reservoir containing one dose or two half-doses of fluid, a dispensing member mounted to move axially inside the reservoir (3) between a rest position and a dispensing position, and an actuating element (5) that is mounted to move between a rest position and an actuating position. The actuating element (5) is disposed laterally, and has an end portion provided with a cam surface (6) which co-operates with the dispensing member (8) or the reservoir unit (3), the actuating element (5) being moved in a direction that is different from, and in particular substantially perpendicular to, the axial direction in which the dispensing member (8) moves relative to the reservoir.

Abstract: A fluid dispenser (100; 200; 300; 400) for dispensing a fluid in liquid or in powder form, the dispenser including a reservoir (12) serving to contain fluid, and a dispensing orifice (114; 214; 314; 414) via which the fluid is dispensed. The reservoir (12) having an actuating wall (111; 211; 311; 411) and a backing wall (112; 212; 312; 412), the walls be adapted to be brought towards each other by elastic deformation to reduce the volume of the reservoir, and thus to deliver fluid through the dispensing orifice. The dispenser further having a one-piece body (110; 210; 310; 410) and at least one flexible sealing film (120; 220; 320; 421; 422), the actuating wall and the backing wall being formed by the one-piece body, wherein the actuating wall and the backing wall are angularly positioned relative to each by forming an angle that decreases when they are brought towards each other.

Abstract: A device is provided for fastening a distribution component on a vessel neck. The fastening device includes a retainer ring comprising a skirt defining an internal wall and an external wall, with the internal wall adapted to contact the external wall of the neck. The device also includes a lining collar surrounding the skirt of the retainer ring, the lining collar defining an internal wall and a visible external wall. The external wall of the skirt is formed with longitudinal external ribs extending at over the height of the skirt. The external ribs are in fitting contact against the internal wall of the collar.

Abstract: A fluid dispenser having two dispensing members (11, 21) mounted on two reservoirs (10, 20), each dispensing member being provided with a dispensing head (12, 22) through which fluid is caused to flow by pressing on a common pusher (3).
