Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un ensemble de distribution d'au moins un produit, notamment cosmétique, sous forme de crème, de liquide ou de poudre.The present invention relates to a distribution assembly for at least one product, in particular a cosmetic product, in the form of a cream, liquid or powder.
On connaît de nombreux ensembles de distribution comportant un récipient contenant le produit à distribuer sur lequel on fixe de façon amovible ou non une tête de distribution. Selon le nombre de produits à distribuer la tête de distribution peut contenir un ou plusieurs canaux de distribution du produit.Numerous dispensing assemblies are known comprising a container containing the product to be dispensed, on which a dispensing head is fixed or not. Depending on the number of products to be distributed, the distribution head may contain one or more product distribution channels.
De façon connue lorsqu'il y a plusieurs produits à distribuer, le récipient peut comporter plusieurs parties, soit qu'il soit constitué de plusieurs conteneurs indépendants, soit qu'il soit divisé par des cloisons internes en compartiments, chacun des conteneurs ou des compartiments étant relié à un canal de la même tête de distribution. La tête de distribution peut également contenir un compartiment pour un produit différent de celui contenu dans le récipient, ce compartiment étant relié au canal de distribution du produit contenu dans le récipient ou à un canal différent.In a known manner when there are several products to be distributed, the container may comprise several parts, either that it consists of several independent containers, or that it is divided by internal partitions into compartments, each of the containers or compartments being connected to a channel of the same distribution head. The dispensing head may also contain a compartment for a product different from that contained in the container, this compartment being connected to the distribution channel for the product contained in the container or to a different channel.
Il est connu d'utiliser des récipients constitués par un tube ou une poche souple dans laquelle le vide se fait progressivement au cours de la distribution, ou des récipients contenant un piston suiveur qui remonte progressivement dans le récipient vers l'ouverture de distribution au fur et à mesure de la distribution du produit, la tête de distribution ne comportant pas de reprise d'air.It is known to use containers constituted by a flexible tube or pocket in which the vacuum is gradually produced during the dispensing, or containers containing a follower piston which progressively rises in the container towards the dispensing opening as and as the product is dispensed, the dispensing head having no air intake.
La présente invention a pour but de fournir une tête de distribution, formant une pompe auto-amorçante sans reprise d'air comportant, d'une part, un corps tubulaire qui porte une première valve fermée pendant la distribution de produit et qui forme un piston et, d'autre part, un bouton-poussoir, qui coulisse sur le piston en formant un corps de pompe et qui est muni d'une seconde valve s'ouvrant sous la poussée du produit à distribuer.The present invention aims to provide a distribution head, forming a self-priming pump without air intake comprising, on the one hand, a tubular body which carries a first valve closed during dispensing of product and which forms a piston and, on the other hand, a push-button, which slides on the piston forming a pump body and which is provided with a second valve opening under the pressure of the product to be dispensed.
La présente invention a donc pour objet un ensemble de distribution d'au moins un produit, notamment cosmétique, sous forme de crème, de liquide ou de poudre, comprenant, d'une part, un récipient souple ou à piston suiveur et, d'autre part, une tête de distribution comportant au moins un canal de sortie du (ou des) produit(s) à distribuer et un bouton-poussoir pour commander la distribution dudit (ou desdits) produit(s), caractérisé par le fait que la tête de distribution comporte un corps tubulaire fixe communiquant avec le récipient et muni à son extrémité opposée audit récipient d'une première valve, qui ne s'ouvre que s'il existe une surpression relative du côté du récipient, le bouton-poussoir de ladite tête formant un corps de pompe, à l'intérieur duquel coulisse de façon étanche ledit corps tubulaire, qui constitue le piston dudit corps de pompe, ledit bouton-poussoir contenant au moins un canal de sortie du produit à distribuer pourvu sur son ouverture de sortie d'une seconde valve, qui ne s'ouvre que s'il existe une surpression relative de l'intérieur du canal vis-à-vis de l'extérieur, un moyen de rappel étant disposé entre une partie fixe solidaire du corps tubulaire et une partie mobile solidaire du bouton-poussoir.The subject of the present invention is therefore a distribution assembly for at least one product, in particular a cosmetic product, in the form of a cream, liquid or powder, comprising, on the one hand, a flexible container or a follower piston and, on the other hand, a dispensing head comprising at least one outlet channel for the product (s) to be dispensed and a push button for controlling the dispensing of the said product (s), characterized in that the dispensing head comprises a fixed tubular body communicating with the container and provided at its end opposite to said container with a first valve, which opens only if there is a relative overpressure on the side of the container, the push button of said head forming a pump body, inside which leaks said tubular body, which constitutes the piston of said pump body, said push button containing at least one outlet channel for the product to be dispensed provided on its o opening of a second valve outlet, which opens only if there is a relative overpressure of the interior of the channel with respect to the exterior, a return means being disposed between a fixed part integral with the tubular body and a movable part secured to the push button.
La seconde valve peut être toute valve ne s'ouvrant que dans le sens de la distribution.The second valve can be any valve that opens only in the direction of distribution.
Selon un premier mode de réalisation, la seconde valve est une valve à cloche constituée par deux capsules coaxiales assemblées par emboîtage, la première capsule disposée côté récipient étant en matériau relativement rigide et la seconde capsule, disposée côté extérieur étant en matériau élastique, les deux capsules étant pourvues d'ouvertures disposées selon des cercles coaxiaux, la première capsule comportant une première jupe cylindrique, tournée vers l'extérieur, entourant l'ensemble des ouvertures de ladite première capsule et la seconde capsule comportant une seconde jupe cylindrique tournée vers le récipient, entourée par les ouvertures de ladite seconde capsule et susceptible de s'emboîter dans la première jupe de façon à fermer la communication entre les ouvertures des première et seconde capsules, lorsqu'il n'y a pas distribution de produit, la communication entre les ouvertures pouvant être établie par déformation élastique de la seconde capsule sous la poussée du produit, lors du déplacement du bouton-poussoir vers le récipient, la seconde jupe revenant s'emboîter dans la première jupe lorsque cesse la poussée du produit.According to a first embodiment, the second valve is a bell valve constituted by two coaxial capsules assembled by fitting, the first capsule disposed on the container side being of relatively rigid material and the second capsule, disposed on the outside being of elastic material, the two capsules being provided with openings arranged in coaxial circles, the first capsule comprising a first cylindrical skirt, facing towards exterior, surrounding all the openings of said first capsule and the second capsule comprising a second cylindrical skirt turned towards the container, surrounded by the openings of said second capsule and capable of fitting into the first skirt so as to close the communication between the openings of the first and second capsules, when there is no dispensing of product, the communication between the openings can be established by elastic deformation of the second capsule under the pressure of the product, when the push button is moved towards the container, the second skirt returning to fit into the first re skirt when the product stops pushing.
Selon un second mode de réalisation, la seconde valve est constituée par le système de fermeture d'un ensemble de distribution faisant l'objet de la demande de Brevet Européen déposée par la demanderesse en revendiquant la priorité de la même demande française 89.10000 que pour la présente demande et intitulée "Ensemble de distribution d'au moins un produit fluide, notamment cosmétique ou pharmaceutique". Un tel système de fermeture est formé par un obturateur, qui fait partie d'une pièce en matériau élastiquement déformable de la tête de distribution, et par un siège, qui fait partie d'une autre pièce de la tête de distribution, l'obturateur étant en contact étanche avec le siège associé lorsqu'il n'y a pas de distribution, s'écartant dudit siège par déformation élastique sous la pression du produit à distribuer et revenant par élasticité en contact avec le siège, l'obturateur étant soumis à l'action d'un organe de contrainte ayant tendance à le maintenir appliqué sur le siège avec lequel il coopère.According to a second embodiment, the second valve is formed by the closure system of a distribution assembly which is the subject of the European patent application filed by the applicant claiming priority from the same French application 89,10000 as for the present application and entitled "Distribution assembly of at least one fluid product, in particular cosmetic or pharmaceutical". Such a closure system is formed by a shutter, which is part of a piece of elastically deformable material of the dispensing head, and by a seat, which is part of another piece of the dispensing head, the shutter. being in sealed contact with the associated seat when there is no distribution, moving away from said seat by elastic deformation under the pressure of the product to be distributed and returning by elasticity in contact with the seat, the shutter being subjected to the action of a constraint member tending to keep it applied to the seat with which it cooperates.
Le matériau élastiquement déformable constituant l'obturateur est, de préférence, en élastomère naturel ou synthétique. Parmi les élastomères utilisables, on peut citer, par exemple, les copolymères styrène-butadiène, les caoutchoucs nitrile, le polychloroprène ou néoprène, le caoutchouc EPDM, les polyuréthanes, le caoutchouc de silicone et les copolymères éthylène-vinylacétate.The elastically deformable material constituting the shutter is preferably made of natural or synthetic elastomer. Among the elastomers which can be used, there may be mentioned, for example, styrene-butadiene copolymers, nitrile rubbers, polychloroprene or neoprene, EPDM rubber, polyurethanes, silicone rubber and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers.
Avantageusement, l'obturateur est constitué par une lèvre en matériau élastiquement déformable, faisant partie d'une pièce en matériau élastiquement déformable constituée par une lame.Advantageously, the shutter is constituted by a lip of elastically deformable material, forming part of a part of elastically deformable material constituted by a blade.
La zone de contact entre ladite lèvre et le siège peut être constituée par une portion de plan, qui a, par exemple, la forme d'un rectangle ; la lame peut dépasser légèrement du siège de façon à former une spatule pour l'application directe du produit distribué sur une surface, en particulier sur la peau dans le cas d'un produit cosmétique.The contact zone between said lip and the seat can consist of a plane portion, which has, for example, the shape of a rectangle; the blade may protrude slightly from the seat so as to form a spatula for the direct application of the product distributed on a surface, in particular on the skin in the case of a cosmetic product.
Le siège peut être soit en matériau rigide, soit en matériau élastiquement déformable ; dans ce dernier cas, la pièce comportant le siège peut être une seconde lame en matière élastique, sensiblement parallèle à la lame portant la lèvre.The seat can be either of rigid material or of elastically deformable material; in the latter case, the part comprising the seat may be a second blade of elastic material, substantially parallel to the blade carrying the lip.
Dans le cas où l'obturateur comporte une lèvre, qui fait partie d'une lame en matériau élastiquement déformable, l'organe de contrainte peut être constitué par un élément rigide maintenant ladite pièce en matériau élastiquement déformable jusqu'au bord de la lèvre ; il peut aussi coopérer avec ladite pièce en matériau élastique par un système de nervure/rainure ou en poussant par une surface appropriée sur une surépaisseur de la lame.In the case where the shutter comprises a lip, which is part of a blade made of elastically deformable material, the constraint member can be constituted by a rigid element holding said piece of elastically deformable material up to the edge of the lip; it can also cooperate with said piece of elastic material by a rib / groove system or by pushing through an appropriate surface on an excess thickness of the blade.
La première valve peut être quelconque dès lors qu'elle ne s'ouvre que s'il existe une surpression relative du côté du récipient. On peut utiliser, par exemple, un clapet anti-retour comportant soit un volet pivotant soit une bille.The first valve can be arbitrary as soon as it opens only if there is a relative overpressure on the side of the container. One can use, for example, a non-return valve comprising either a pivoting flap or a ball.
De préférence, la première valve est solidaire du joint d'étanchéité ménagé entre le corps tubulaire et le bouton-poussoir formant corps de pompe.Preferably, the first valve is integral with the seal provided between the tubular body and the push button forming the pump body.
Le moyen de rappel extérieur au corps tubulaire est, de préférence, un ressort travaillant en compression.The return means external to the tubular body is preferably a spring working in compression.
De préférence, le corps tubulaire est disposé sur une plaque qui sert à la fixation de la poche souple ou qui ferme le récipient à piston suiveur contenant le produit à distribuer. Cette plaque peut porter une paroi cylindrique coaxiale au corps tubulaire et entourant ce dernier : le moyen de rappel s'appuie sur le bord libre de cette paroi cylindrique.Preferably, the tubular body is arranged on a plate which is used for fixing the flexible bag or which closes the follower piston container containing the product to be dispensed. This plate can carry a cylindrical wall coaxial with the tubular body and surrounding the latter: the return means rests on the free edge of this cylindrical wall.
De préférence, le bouton-poussoir comporte une jupe cylindrique coulissant à l'extérieur du corps tubulaire et une partie cylindrique coulissant à l'extérieur de la paroi cylindrique de la plaque sur laquelle est disposé le corps tubulaire, les bords de la jupe et de la partie cylindrique étant reliés par une surface plane sur laquelle le moyen de rappel vient en appui ; dans une variante, la jupe cylindrique et la capsule, qui lui est adjacente, sont moulées en une seule pièce.Preferably, the push button comprises a cylindrical skirt sliding outside the tubular body and a cylindrical part sliding outside the cylindrical wall of the plate on which the tubular body is disposed, the edges of the skirt and the cylindrical part being connected by a flat surface on which the return means comes to bear; in a variant, the cylindrical skirt and the capsule, which is adjacent to it, are molded in one piece.
La tête de distribution est, de préférence, recouverte au cours du stockage par un capot de protection.The dispensing head is preferably covered during storage by a protective cover.
L'ensemble de distribution selon l'invention fonctionne de la façon suivante :The distribution assembly according to the invention operates as follows:
L'utilisateur appuie sur le bouton-poussoir qui coulisse sur le corps tubulaire, la première valve venant fermer le corps tubulaire qui peut alors agir comme un piston. Le produit comprimé provoque alors l'ouverture de la deuxième valve et est distribué à l'extérieur tant que le bouton-poussoir est en mouvement. Lorsque l'utilisateur cesse d'exercer une pression sur le bouton-poussoir, le moyen de rappel ramène le bouton-poussoir en position de stockage, et la seconde valve se ferme ; il se crée une dépression à l'intérieur du bouton-poussoir, ce qui provoque l'ouverture de la première valve et une aspiration du produit à distribuer contenu dans le récipient, dans le volume constitué, au moins partiellement, par le bouton-poussoir formant corps de pompe.User presses push button which slides on the tubular body, the first valve closing the tubular body which can then act like a piston. The compressed product then causes the opening of the second valve and is distributed outside as long as the push button is in motion. When the user ceases to exert pressure on the push button, the return means returns the push button to the storage position, and the second valve closes; a depression is created inside the push-button, which causes the opening of the first valve and an aspiration of the product to be dispensed contained in the container, in the volume formed, at least partially, by the push-button forming pump body.
Pour mieux faire comprendre l'objet de l'invention, on va en décrire, ci-après, à titre purement illustratif et non limitatif, deux modes de réalisation représentés sur le dessin annexé.To better understand the object of the invention, there will be described below, purely by way of illustration and not limitation, two embodiments shown in the accompanying drawing.

La paroi transversale 17 constitue le fond de la partie cylindrique 11 ; ledit fond comporte dans sa zone centrale, une ouverture pour le passage du produit ; cette ouverture débouche dans un canal 18 creusé dans la paroi transversale 17 et dans le bec 12 ; le canal 18 s'ouvre sur l'extérieur au niveau de la fente de sortie du produit, qui est délimitée par la lèvre 14 et le bourrelet 15.The
Le bouton-poussoir 8 comporte une jupe 19 coaxiale à la partie cylindrique 11 et située radialement à l'intérieur de celle-ci. Un ressort de compression 20 est disposé dans l'espace annulaire entourant la jupe 19 et s'appuie sur la paroi transversale 17.The push button 8 comprises a
Le bouton-poussoir 8 est monté coulissant sur le corps tubulaire 10 prévu au centre de la plaque 9. La plaque 9 est circulaire ; elle est fixée par claquage sur le bord de l'enceinte rigide 4. Sur le bord supérieur du corps tubulaire 10 est fixée une valve 21 comportant un volet 21a pivotant ; le volet 21a est obtenu de moulage avec un fourreau dont il peut venir obturer une extrémité. Le fourreau enserre la partie haute du corps tubulaire 10 de sorte que le volet 21a puisse former un clapet qui ferme l'extrémité du corps tubulaire. Le fourreau porte extérieurement deux lèvres d'étanchéité 21b prenant appui sur la surface interne de la jupe 19. Entre le volet 21a et la paroi transversale 17 est ainsi défini un espace interne E qui diminue quand on comprime le ressort 20.The push button 8 is slidably mounted on the
Une paroi cylindrique 22, coaxiale au corps tubulaire 10 et solidaire de la plaque 9, entoure ledit corps tubulaire 10 sur une fraction de sa longueur. Le ressort 20 tend à éloigner le bouton-poussoir de la plaque 9, l'éloignement maximum étant défini par la coopération de deux bourrelets annulaires d'extrémité portés respectivement par la partie cylindrique 11 et la paroi cylindrique 22. La paroi cylindrique 22 se prolonge, du côté opposé de la plaque 9, pour former un manchon 23 fileté intérieurement dans lequel peut être vissé le goulot 6 du tube souple 2. Un prolongement 23a du corps tubulaire 10, est ménagé du côté de la plaque 9 où ne se trouve pas ledit corps tubulaire; il est prévu pour entrer à frottement doux dans le goulot 6 du tube 2 afin d'assurer son centrage. Une entrée d'air 24 est prévue dans le fond de l'enceinte rigide 4.A
Le fonctionnement de l'ensemble de distribution 1 est le suivant :The operation of the distribution assembly 1 is as follows:
Lorsque le capuchon 5 a été retiré, l'utilisateur peut appuyer sur le couvercle 16 du bouton-poussoir 8 en comprimant le ressort 20, ce qui provoque la réduction de l'espace E, la compression du produit qui s'y trouve, la fermeture de la valve 21 et, finalement, la sortie du produit contenu dans le canal 18 et dans l'espace interne E du bouton-poussoir 8, à travers la valve 25 formée par la lèvre 14 et le bourrelet 15 du bec 12 ; le corps tubulaire 10 fermé par la valve 21 a agi comme un piston pour assurer la distribution. Lorsque l'utilisateur cesse d'exercer une pression sur le bouton-poussoir 8, le ressort 20 rappelle ledit bouton-poussoir 8 vers la position haute de la figure 1, ce qui crée une dépression dans l'espace E et provoque l'ouverture de la valve 21 et un transfert de produit entre le tube 2 et l'espace interne E du bouton-poussoir formant corps de pompe.When the cap 5 has been removed, the user can press the cover 16 of the push button 8 by compressing the
On voit que, dans ce mode de réalisation, le ressort 20 se trouve hors du produit à tous les stades de stockage et de distribution, ce qui évite tout contact avec le produit distribué et, par conséquent, toute pollution. D'autre part, la tête de distribution 3 constitue une pompe, auto-amorçante, sans reprise d'air : le produit à distribuer n'est donc jamais en contact avec l'air avant sa distribution.It can be seen that, in this embodiment, the
La figure 1a représente une tête de distribution 1503 analogue à celle représentée sur la figure 1, qui comporte un bouton-poussoir 1508 à sortie latérale formant corps de pompe ; ce bouton-poussoir 1508 coulisse sur un piston creux 1513 portant un clapet à volet 1514, de façon à modifier le volume de l'espace E interne du bouton-poussoir 1508. Le couvercle rigide 1506 forme un organe de contrainte ; il est muni d'une ouverture 1561 et, au niveau de cette ouverture, la lame 1505 est amincie en 1551. Cette disposition permet de percer la lame 1505 dans sa zone amincie 1551 à l'aide d'une aiguille hypodermique H : grâce à cette dernière, il est possible de supprimer l'air contenu dans l'espace E et d'aspirer le produit du récipient 1502. On peut ainsi amorcer le système de pompe sans souiller le système de fermeture F. On pourrait également introduire un gaz de rinçage.Figure 1a shows a dispenser head 1 503 similar to that shown in Figure 1, which comprises a push-
La figure 2 représente un deuxième mode de réalisation de l'ensemble de distribution selon l'invention ; cette réalisation comporte, comme seconde valve, une valve à cloche décrite ci-après.FIG. 2 represents a second embodiment of the distribution assembly according to the invention; this embodiment comprises, as a second valve, a bell valve described below.
L'ensemble de distribution est désigné dans son ensemble par 101 ; il comprend un récipient 102 sur lequel est fixé une tête de distribution 103. Le récipient 102 contient un piston suiveur 104 et son fond est muni d'une ouverture de reprise d'air 124. La tête de distribution 103 peut être protégée par un capuchon 105 qui se fixe par claquage sur le récipient 102.The distribution assembly as a whole is designated by 101; it comprises a
La tête de distribution 103 se compose d'un bouton-poussoir 108 mobile et d'une plaque transversale 109 portant un corps tubulaire 110 formant piston. La plaque transversale 109 constitue la paroi supérieure du récipient ; elle porte une paroi cylindrique 122 entourant le corps tubulaire 110 sur une partie de sa longueur.The dispensing
Sur l'extrémité du corps tubulaire 110, qui est opposée à la plaque 109, est fixée une première valve 121 comportant un volet 121a pivotant; cette valve est moulée d'une seule pièce avec un fourreau fixé sur l'extrémité du corps tubulaire 110 ; sa structure et son montage sont les mêmes que pour la valve 21. Le fourreau est muni de lèvres d'étanchéité 121b prenant appui sur la surface interne de la jupe 119.On the end of
Le bouton-poussoir mobile 108 comporte une partie cylindrique 111 munie latéralement de deux extensions 112 radiales servant à l'appui des doigts de l'utilisateur. La partie cylindrique 111 comporte, à sa partie supérieure, une paroi transversale dont la zone centrale est évidée et se trouve entourée par une collerette annulaire 131. Dans la zone délimitée par la collerette 131, on met en place la seconde valve 113 de la tête de distribution ; cette valve est appliquée contre la collerette 131 par la rondelle annulaire 117 qui est ménagée à l'une des extrémités d'une jupe cylindrique 119. Le centrage relatif de la valve 113 et de la jupe 119 est assuré par une nervure circulaire 127 prévue sur la rondelle 117 qui coopère avec une rainure 126 ménagée sur l'une des pièces de la valve 113. Un ressort hélicoïdal 120 prend appui sur le bourrelet d'extrémité de la paroi cylindrique 122, ledit bourrelet coopérant avec un bourrelet complémentaire de la partie cylindrique 111 pour limiter la course du bouton-poussoir dans le sens de l'action exercée par le ressort 120. Le ressort 120 est disposé dans l'espace annulaire compris entre la partie cylindrique 111 et la jupe 119 et il s'appuie d'un côté contre la rondelle 117 et de l'autre contre le bourrelet d'extrémité de la paroi cylindrique 122. Le ressort 120 maintient donc la valve 113 en appui contre la collerette 131.The
La valve 113 se compose de deux capsules emboîtées l'une dans l'autre 114 et 115, la capsule inférieure 114 étant en matière plastique relativement rigide et la capsule 115 étant en matière plastique souple. La capsule 114 comporte une première collerette 125 munie sur sa face côté récipient, de la rainure circulaire 126. Cette collerette 125 est reliée à une paroi cylindrique 128 contenant un disque transversal 129 fixé à la surface interne de ladite paroi 128 ; le disque 129 est percé d'ouvertures 130 disposées sur un cercle au voisinage de la périphérie du disque 129. Un bourrelet circulaire 131 est prévu sur la surface externe de la paroi cylindrique 128 pour faciliter la fixation par emboîtage de la deuxième capsule sur la première capsule. La capsule en matière souple 115 comporte une collerette circulaire 132 qui s'appuie sur la collerette circulaire 125 de la capsule 114. Une surface sensiblement conique 133 s'étend à partir de la collerette 132 et elle est fermée par une cuvette 134 pourvue d'un fond plat 135. Des ouvertures 136 sont ménagées à la jonction entre la surface conique 133 et la cuvette 134. Le fond plat 135 de la cuvette 134 est muni sur son pourtour d'une jupe 137 qui est susceptible de s'insérer à frottement doux à l'intérieur de la paroi cylindrique 128.The
Le dispositif fonctionne de la façon décrite ci-après :The device operates as described below:
Lorsque le capuchon 105 a été retiré, l'utilisateur appuie sur les extensions radiales 112 du bouton-poussoir 108. Le ressort 120 est comprimé. La partie cylindrique 111 du bouton-poussoir coulisse sur la paroi cylindrique 122, et la jupe 119 sur le corps tubulaire 110 ; simultanément, la valve 121 se ferme. Le corps tubulaire 110 portant la valve fermée 121 agit comme un piston et exerce une poussée sur le produit contenu dans le volume E compris entré la valve 121, la jupe 119 et la valve 113. Le produit traverse les ouvertures 130 de la capsule rigide 114 et vient déformer la capsule en matière souple 115 en poussant, notamment, sur le disque 135. Cette déformation provoque la formation d'un passage entre la jupe 137 de la capsule 115 et la paroi 128 de la capsule 114. Le produit peut alors sortir par les ouvertures 136 de la capsule 115.When the
Lorsque l'utilisateur cesse d'appuyer sur le bouton-poussoir 108, le ressort 120 ramène celui-ci en position haute (sur la figure 2). Le volume E augmente et se met en dépression. Dans la valve 113, la capsule 115 revient en position sur la capsule 114 et ferme la communication entre les ouvertures 130 et 136. La valve 121 s'ouvre ; une partie du produit contenu dans le récipient 102 est aspirée dans le volume E du bouton-poussoir à travers le corps tubulaire 110 ; simultanément, le piston suiveur 104 remonte vers la tête de distribution dans le récipient 102.When the user stops pressing the
