Abstract: A pot including a base and a lid, configured to adopt a closed position and an open position, that includes at least one locking strip positioned between a cover and a latching plate of the lid and fixed with respect to the cover, configured to adopt a locked position in which it presses against a rear wall of a latching element, thus holding a claw in a notch in a neck of the base, when the lid is in the closed position, and to adopt an unlocked position, in which the at least one locking strip is moved angularly with respect to its locked position and distant from the rear wall of the at least one latching element, when the lid is in the open position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a compressible dispenser of a liquid product, in particular a cosmetic liquid product such as a cream, which includes a resiliently compressible body, a member for dispensing said liquid product having an outlet opening for the liquid, a cap having a wall, attachment means intended for ensuring the removable attachment of said cap on said body, and which includes a cover covering the distribution member. The outer peripheral surface is flush with said outlet opening, and the wall of the cap and the wall of the body have outer surfaces that are flush at the upper edges thereof. The cap and the body are portions that complement one another, with a continuously convex shape, said protection cover having a shape identical to that of the wall of the cap, but reduced by at least the thickness of the wall of said cap.

Abstract: The invention provides a medical endoscope including a control handle (2) provided with a control mechanism and that, by means of an attachment system, is temporarily attached to a consumable medical instrument (3) including: at least one flow circuit for a fluid, a portion of which circuit extends along an insertion tube, the fluid circuit including a connector fitting accessible independently from the handle; an actuation system for actuating the head of the insertion tube, which actuation system is driven by the control mechanism after the handle and the consumable medical instrument have been attached together; in accordance with the invention, the control handle (2) and the consumable medical instrument (3) respectively have a first portion and a second portion of a closure device, which portions co-operate with each other in the attached position to close off at least one fluid flow circuit in controlled manner.

Abstract: An endoscope instrument includes an insertion tube of longitudinal axis possessing a proximal portion for connection to an actuation support and a distal portion presenting an outlet section occupied by a viewing zone and by at least one outlet orifice for passing at least one appliance for occupying a retracted position inside the tube and a working position in which the appliance occupies at least a portion of the outlet section. The distal portion of the insertion tube includes at least one radially deformable wall over a portion of its length extending from the outlet section, enabling the outlet section of the distal portion of the tube to be increased on the appliance passing from its retracted position in which the appliance does not stress the deformable wall to its working position in which the deformable wall is stressed radially.

Abstract: A medical appliance including a medical instrument that is separable from an actuator support, the appliance including a connection and disconnection system including a connector carried by the instrument and including a guide for guiding at least one actuator rod retained elastically in the guide by a head, and a coupling endpiece carried by the support and including at least one engagement mechanism that is guided in rotation and that defines a reception setback for receiving the head of the actuator rod. The engagement mechanism is fitted with a rotary coupling member complementary to the rotary coupling member presented by the connector, and the endpiece also presents at least one hook connected to an actuator system.

Abstract: The cosmetic product device comprises a container presenting an orifice for dispensing a product; and a cap presenting an internal portion in relief, such as a lip, arranged to pass over the orifice while closing the container with the cap, and to lie at a distance from the orifice when the cap closes the container. The cap is arranged in such a manner that while it is keeping the container closed it bears against the orifice and closes it.
