Device for distributing a fluid of the single dose or half dose type
First Claim
1. A fluid spray dispenser device comprising a body (1), a nasal applicator (2) adapted to be inserted into a nostril, a reservoir unit (3) comprising a reservoir containing only one single dose or only two half-doses of fluid to be sprayed in a nostril through the nasal applicator, a dispensing member (8) mounted to move axially inside the reservoir (3) between a rest position and a dispensing position, and an actuating element (5) that is mounted to move between a rest position and an actuating position, said fluid dispenser device being characterized in that said actuating element (5) is disposed laterally, and has an end portion provided with a cam surface (6) which co-operates with said dispensing member (8) or said reservoir unit (3), said actuating element (5) being moved in a direction that is different from, and in particular substantially perpendicular to, the axial direction in which the dispensing member (8) moves relative to the reservoir.

Abstract
A fluid dispenser device including a body (1), a reservoir unit (3) having a reservoir containing one dose or two half-doses of fluid, a dispensing member mounted to move axially inside the reservoir (3) between a rest position and a dispensing position, and an actuating element (5) that is mounted to move between a rest position and an actuating position. The actuating element (5) is disposed laterally, and has an end portion provided with a cam surface (6) which co-operates with the dispensing member (8) or the reservoir unit (3), the actuating element (5) being moved in a direction that is different from, and in particular substantially perpendicular to, the axial direction in which the dispensing member (8) moves relative to the reservoir.

14. A fluid spray dispenser device comprising:
-
a body; a nasal applicator adapted to be inserted into a nostril; a reservoir comprising a single dose or two half-doses of fluid medication designed to be administered by spraying in a nostril through the nasal applicator; a dispensing member mounted to move axially inside the reservoir between a rest position and a dispensing position; and an actuating element mounted to move between a rest position and an actuating position; and wherein the actuating element projects laterally and comprises an end portion comprising a cam surface that co-operates with the dispensing member or the reservoir unit, the actuating element moveable in a direction transverse to the axial direction in which the dispensing member moves relative to the reservoir. - View Dependent Claims (15)
