  • Patent number: 10260492
    Abstract: A method of producing a pump body for dispensing fluid product, the body having a casing with an inlet orifice which includes a valve having a ball retained in a cage, the method includes: moulding the casing by forming ribs in relief having two lateral faces which join together along an internal edge and an upper end having a free upper surface; introducing the ball into the cage below the upper ends; deforming the upper ends to form visors extending radially towards the interior of the casing to imprison the ball in the cage; with the ribs being formed with their free surface extending from one lateral edge to the other by forming a dome having a top, with the deformation of the upper ends being provided by causing a matrix to bear against the tops then via axial displacement from the matrix on a stroke for crushing domes.

  • Patent number: 9259752
    Abstract: A bottle for dispensing a fluid product including a body in which a container intended for packaging the product is formed, the bottle also including an extraction device equipped with a pushbutton reversibly movable over a stroke for actuation of the device between a resting position and a depressed position in which the dispensing orifice is in communication with the container via the device, the body being equipped with a valve for filling the container by suction of the product contained in a product source, an upper wall being integrated in the body by way of a sealed connection that can be destroyed manually, the extraction device being mounted in the body with the pushbutton held in the depressed position on the upper wall so as to place the connection in communication with the container.
