Abstract

In einem Spender mit einem Flüssigkeitsspeicher, einem Austragkopf mit einen Lochplattenbauteil (110), das in einem Austragöffnungsbereich (116) mindestens 25 Austragöffnungen (118) aufweist, mit einer den Austragöffnungen (118) des Lochplattenbauteils (110) vorgeschalteten Vorkammer (120), aus der die Austragöffnungen (118) gespeist werden und einem Verbindungskanal, der den Flüssigkeitsspeicher mit der Vorkammer verbindet, wird vorgeschlagen, dass das Lochplattenbauteil (110) in einem Randbereich am Austragkopf befestigt ist und der Austragöffnungsbereich (116) mittels eines in der Vorkammer angeordneten die Lochplatte kraftbeaufschlagenden Wölbungskörpers (230) in eine gewölbte Form gedrückt wird und/oder dass der austretende Volumenstrom durch einen in der Vorkammer angeordneten Ventil- oder Zustromsteuerungskörper reguliert wird.
