Abstract

Un dispositif de distribution par pulvérisation de produit fluide est fourni avec un réservoir pouvant être comprimé (12) normalement sollicité vers un état non comprimé et définissant une ouverture de distribution de gaz. Un boítier (20) est connecté au réservoir. Dans un mode de réalisation du distributeur, une chambre de mélange (60) est définie dans un boítier et communique avec le réservoir. Une support de cartouche (72) est défini par le boítier pour recevoir une cartouche (74) qui contient un produit fluide et qui a une fermeture étanche pouvant s'ouvrir (76, 75). Un passage de transfert de produit fluide établit une communication entre la chambre de mélange et la cartouche lorsque la fermeture étanche est ouverte. Un orifice de distribution par pulvérisation (64) est défini dans le boítier pour distribuer sous forme de spray du produit fluide et de gaz à partir de la chambre de mélange.

A fluid spray dispensing device is provided with a compressible reservoir (12) normally biased to an uncompressed state and defining a gas distribution opening. A housing (20) is connected to the tank. In one embodiment of the dispenser, a mixing chamber (60) is defined in a housing and communicates with the reservoir. A cartridge holder (72) is defined by the housing to receive a cartridge (74) which contains a fluid product and which has a seal which can be opened (76, 75). A fluid transfer passage establishes communication between the mixing chamber and the cartridge when the seal is opened. A spray dispensing orifice (64) is defined in the housing for dispensing fluid and gas from the mixing chamber as a spray.
