FLUID DISPENSER HAVING A DISCHARGE HEAD
First Claim
1. A fluid dispenser, in particular for discharging pharmaceutical or cosmetic fluids, having the following features:
- a. the fluid dispenser has a base unit having a fluid accumulator for receiving fluid before the discharge procedure, andb. the fluid dispenser has a discharge head which is provided for securing to the base unit, andc. the fluid dispenser possesses a pump device, which can be actuated by a relative translative movement of the discharge head with respect to the base unit and conveys fluid from the fluid accumulator into the discharge head, or the fluid accumulator is formed as a pressure accumulator and the fluid dispenser possesses a valve device, which can be actuated by a relative translative movement of the discharge head with respect to the base unit and conveys fluid from the fluid accumulator into the discharge head, andd. the discharge head has a housing, which is preferably displaceable with respect to the base unit for the purpose of actuating the fluid dispenser, ande. the discharge head has a fluid inlet, through which fluid to be discharged can make its way from the fluid accumulator into the discharge head, andf. the discharge head has a discharge opening, through which the fluid can be delivered into a surrounding atmosphere, andg. a swirling chamber having at least one eccentrically leading inlet channel is provided between the fluid inlet and the discharge opening so that inflowing fluid is provided with a swirl which brings about the formation of a spray stream as it exits the discharge opening,h. the swirling chamber can be switched between at least a first and a second configuration by changing the geometry of walls of the swirling chamber and/or the at least one inlet channel, andi. the discharge head has a handle for manually switching between the configurations.

Abstract
A fluid dispenser having an accumulator and a discharge head. The discharge head is secured to a base unit of the dispenser, which base unit includes a fluid accumulator. The discharge head has a housing displaceable relative to the base unit for actuating the dispenser. The discharge head has an inlet through which fluid travels from the fluid accumulator into the discharge head, and a discharge opening through which the fluid is delivered into the atmosphere. A swirling chamber having an inlet channel is provided between the fluid inlet and the discharge opening so that inflowing fluid is provided with a swirl which forms a spray stream when exiting the discharge opening. The swirling chamber is switched between a first and a second configuration by changing the geometry of its walls and/or the inlet channel.
