  • Patent number: 7396019
    Abstract: A valve gasket for sealing a fluid dispenser device comprising a valve, in particular a metering valve, mounted on a fluid reservoir, said gasket being characterized in that it comprises an alloy of vulcanized ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) and/or of butyl (IIR) or of vulcanized halobutyl (CIIR or BIIR) with one or more materials selected from the group constituted by polyoctene ethylene (POE), ethylene propylene (EP), ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) and chloroprene rubber (CR), all of these materials being vulcanized.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20060273117
    Abstract: The invention relates to a valve seal for an aerosol dispenser serving to dispense a fluid product. The invention is characterized in that said seal contains an elastomer based on ethylene propylene (EP) and/or or on ethylene propylene diene (EPDM), and contains a mineral filler based on quartz (SiO2) and on kaolinite (Al4[(0H)8Si4O10]).

  • Patent number: 6622893
    Abstract: A valve gasket for a metering valve serving to dispense a fluid, in particular a powder dispersed in a propellant gas, the metering valve including a valve body defining a metering chamber, and a valve rod mounted to slide in the metering chamber between a rest position and an actuating position, the sealing between the valve rod and the metering chamber being provided by the valve gasket, the valve body being fixed in a fixing cap serving to assemble the valve onto a fluid reservoir, the valve gasket being provided with a radially inside contact zone over which the valve rod slides, the contact zone being fixed to a rigid element so that, while the valve rod is moving, the contact zone of the valve gasket remains substantially unchanging in terms of its shape and of its position, the contact zone having a profile that is rounded at least in part, so as to reduce the area of contact between the valve gasket and the valve rod, the rigid element being an integral part of the fixing cap, and in particular the in
