Abstract: A device (1) for dispensing a fluid substance (S) comprising a cup-shaped body (3) equipped, at the bottom (2) thereof, with a first valve element (4) which intercepts a passage (5) for the suction of the said fluid substance into a compression chamber (6), a cup-shaped body (2) closing element (7) equipped with a window (8), a dispensing button (15), and a shaped element (9) functionally coupled to the dispenser button (15) for the movement thereof into the cup-shaped body (3), the shaped element (9) comprising a flange portion (10) configured to slide along an internal wall (3A) of the cup-shaped body, a deformable portion (11) extending from the flange portion (10) which is bell-shaped when non-deformed, the deformable portion (11) being elastically deformable, the said deformable portion (11) determining, at least together with a part of the cup-shaped body (3), the said compression chamber (6).

Abstract: A device for dispensing a fluid substance, including a container in which the fluid substance is housed, the container being coupled with a valve or a manual pump equipped with a hollow stem which is movable between at least a first position, in which the fluid substance is dispensed through a cavity thereof and a second position in which dispensing of the fluid substance through its cavity is prevented, there being a dispenser button coupled, in an essentially sealed manner, at the top of the hollow stem so that application of pressure to the button moves the hollow stem between the said second and the said first position, the button defining a delivery channel endowed with a first opening in a free surface of the device and which is equipped with a surface facing the stem cavity; the surface is conical or pyramidal, being tapered towards the stem cavity.

Abstract: A device for dispensing a fluid substance includes a pressurised container associated with a dispensing valve featuring a supply conduit and a stem endowed with a cavity through which the fluid substance is dispensed, a chamber housed inside the container, and arranged so as to surround at least part of the body of the valve, the chamber delimited by a deformable wall and at least part of the body, the valve being of the three-way type, configured so that when the stem is in a first position, the cavity is isolated from the supply conduit and from the chamber, while the supply conduit is in communication with the chamber, wherein when the stem is in a second position, the cavity is in communication with the chamber, and wherein when the stem is in a third position, the cavity of the stem is in communication with at least the supply conduit.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for assembling a dispensing system (1) for dispensing a fluid medium under pressure, the method including: providing a valve cup (10) including a valve (50) and a bag (100), the valve (50) configured to attach to an opening of the bag (100), wherein the valve cup (10) is either formed from a first plastic or includes a lining (70) formed from the first plastic; inserting the valve (50) into the opening of the bag (100) and fluidly sealing the bag (100) to the valve (50); providing a container (30), the container (30) including an opening (32) and suitable for storing a fluid medium under pressure and formed, at least in part, from a second plastic; inserting the bag (100) into the container (30) and positioning the valve cup (10) at the opening (32) of the container (30); pressurising the internal volume of the container (30); and welding the valve cup (10) to the container (30) to thereby provide a seal between the valve cup (10) and the opening (32) of the container (30).

Abstract: The present invention provides a valve cup (10) for use with a container (30) for dispensing a fluid medium stored under pressure. The valve cup (10) supports a valve (50) and seals an opening (32) of the container (30) and is formed from a semi-crystalline polyester. The present invention also provides a container (30), wherein at least a part of the container (30) surrounding an opening (32) is formed from a semi-crystal-line polyester. A further valve cup (10) is formed from a metal or rigid material and further includes a polyester lining (70). Dispensing systems (1) including the above containers (30) and valve cups (10) are provided, wherein welding is facilitated between the container (30) and valve cups (10).
