Patent number: 9694148Abstract: A discharge device for a flowable substance includes at least one storage element having at least one reception chamber for a flowable substance. A carrier body including a discharge opening is provided with a pin having an axial channel and a transverse channel branching off from the axial channel. The storage element is guided on an outer side of the carrier body via at least one annular sealing lip. Discharge of the flowable substance is effected by sliding the storage element onto the pin so that the sealing lip skims over the transverse channel of the cylindrical pin and the cylindrical pin urges the flowable substance out of the reception chamber via the transverse and axial channels. In the area of the discharge opening, the carrier body includes an atomizing device that discharges the flowable substance in atomized form by a sliding of the storage element.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 2012Date of Patent: July 4, 2017Assignee: DISPENSYS AGInventor: Alberto C.
