  • Patent number: 10772811
    Abstract: An aqueous ionic solution based on dissolved mineral salts, in particular intended for throat care, especially for the treatment, prevention and relief of manifestations related to sore throats. The aqueous ionic solution includes: by way of aqueous solvent, at least 20% by weight, with respect to the total weight of the composition, of a hypertonic solution of mineral salts having an osmolality greater than 350 mOsm/kg; at least 50% of one or more polyols of plant origin, by weight with respect to the total weight of the ionic solution; at least one sucrose and C8-C24 fatty acid ester, by weight with respect to the total weight of the ionic solution; and a non-alcoholic extract of propolis and/or between 1% and 8% honey, by weight with respect to the total weight of the ionic solution.

  • Patent number: 8752731
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for producing a dispensing device (1). The method includes mounting a valve (4) into a dispensing opening (7) of an internal reservoir (3) with a variable volume, sealingly attaching an attachment sleeve (22) made of thermoplastic polymer to the internal reservoir (3), disposing the internal reservoir (3) and the valve (4) inside an external container (5) made of thermoplastic polymer, placing the attachment sleeve (22) opposite to and at a distance from a mounting opening (16) of the external container (5), inserting through the mounting opening (16) a pressurized gas between the internal reservoir (3) and the external container (5), and closing off the mounting opening (16) with the attachment sleeve (22) and welding the attachment sleeve (22) and the external container (5) to one another.

  • Patent number: 8505774
    Abstract: Device adapted to deliver fluids, in particular medicines, under pressure, comprising a receptacle 1 of variable volume in a form or shape of a pouch or flexible container of general cylindrical shape with exclusively longitudinal pleats 2 containing the fluid under pressure to be delivered and equipped with an actuator C permitting to open a valve 15a, 15b, to enable the aforementioned fluid to be delivered, the whole being located inside a receptacle 4 capable of resisting to an elevated internal pressure, the internal volume of this last receptacle comprised between its wall and the receptacle of variable volume being filled with a neutral gas under a pressure sufficient to exert on the receptacle of variable volume a pneumatic constraint sufficient to permit the delivery of the therein contained fluid when the above-said valve permitting the said delivery is operated by the aforementioned actuator C.
