Abstract: A system for fastening a dispensing pump on the neck of a bottle containing a fluid product, the system including a sleeve having an interior collar for fastening of the pump and a lower skirt provided with fasteners for fastening the sleeve on the bottle, the system further including a hoop slidably mounted around the skirt between a top position wherein the fasteners are free and a bottom position wherein the fasteners are constrained by the hoop, the system further including an exterior collar mounted around the interior collar by the intermediary of a device for displacing the exterior collar between a bottom usage position and a top dismounting position, the hoop at the bottom position being attached to the exterior collar in order to actuate the displacement of the collar towards its top position by driving the hoop relatively to the skirt on a stroke that is sufficient to release the fasteners.
Abstract: An actuator for advancing a rod which enables release of the rod from an actuating mechanism by rotating the rod to allow the rod to be retreated. The actuator may also provide a mechanism for disabling the driving mechanism as the rod is fully advanced to prevent damage by excessive forces being applied to the rod. The actuating mechanism can be fully enclosed in a stock of a dispenser gun or applicator, facilitating cleaning of the dispenser gun. The disclosed dispenser gun is particularly suitable for dentistry applications.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a pumping device of a fluid vessel that discharges a predetermined amount of contents, and more particularly, to a push button of a pumping device of a fluid vessel including a push panel having a push part capable of being pushed by applying force on an upper front surface; and a connection rod formed at a lower end of the push panel and including a pump pressing part pushed as the push part is pushed and a rotation part serving as a central axis of an operation of the pump pressing part as the push part is pushed, a distance between the push part and the rotation part being longer than that between the pump pressing part and the rotation part, and a pumping device of a fluid vessel using the same.
Abstract: The invention relates to a cosmetic container with an airless discharge pump, and, more specifically, relates to a cosmetic container with an airless discharge pump in which content amount remaining in the container or content exhaustion level can be confirmed without a separate operation before the content in the container has been completely exhausted and further the state when the content in the container has been completely exhausted can be clearly indicated. To this end, with this cosmetic container, the content exhaustion level is indicated based on changes in projection definition with which the indicator is projected to the transparent window when the transparent compression disk approaches the indicator.
Abstract: It is provided a dispensing device for a fluid container, which includes a container cap, a switching nozzle, a securing mechanism and a dispensing compartment. The container cap has apertures, and the switching nozzle has a closing state and an opening state, wherein in the closing state the switching nozzle hermetically sealing the apertures. An oval skirt is attached to the switching nozzle embracing the container cap, having protrusions for fixing the skirt to the container cap. Pressing the skirt releases the fixing and allows switching to an opening state. The dispensing compartment includes an annular portion, a setting mechanism, and a cover mechanism. The setting mechanism determines the limited volume of the dispensing compartment and secures the limited volume from undesired variation. The annular portion has a plurality of clefts and an associated plurality of quantity markings.
Abstract: Vacuum release systems that allow rapid, uninterrupted flow of a liquid through a first opening in a container when the container is inverted are disclosed. The vacuum release systems includes a holes punch and can be secured to the outer surface of the container. When the liquid-filled container is inverted, pressure is applied to the hole punch to form a second opening in the side of the container. The second opening releases the vacuum by allowing air to flow into the container, which, in turn, allows rapid, uninterrupted flow of the liquid through the first opening in the container.
Abstract: A push-button for a system for dispensing a product under pressure, the push-button includes an actuator body having an orifice for ejecting the product, a closing off valving element of the ejection orifice and a sleeve having a mounting well of the push-button on a feed tube for the product under pressure, the body being slidably mounted around the sleeve between a high position and a low position by forming between them a space for carrying the product from the mounting well to the orifice for ejecting the product, the valving element being mounted between the body and the sleeve by the intermediary of a device for reversible displacing of the valving element between a closing off position—respectively an ejection position—when the body is in high position—respectively in low position—, the push-button includes an elastic recalling of the body in high position.
