Dispensing device with control body in order to axially move a dispensing element

A carrier unit for a functional body, the carrier unit comprising:

• a housing part;
• a connecting body guided for longitudinal movement in said housing part from an inactive initial position into an active extraction position;
• and
• a control body coupled to said connecting body and being rotatable relative to said connecting body, said control body having a control part abuttable with a sloped control path on said connecting body, said control body with said control part being rotatable in two opposite directions relative to said housing part without axial movement moving said connecting body from the inactive initial position to the active extraction position in a longitudinal direction of said connecting body as said control part moves along said sloped control path.

A container system, comprising:

• a container having a receiving space containing a dispensable medium;
• and
• a dispensing element coupled to said container and capable of extracting said dispensable medium from said container, said dispensing element include a control body being coupled to a connecting body and being rotatable relative to said connecting body, said connecting body being guided for longitudinal movement in a housing part of said dispensing element from an inactive initial position into an active extraction position in which said receiving space and said dispensing element are in fluid communication, said control body having a first control part being abutable with a sloped control path of said connecting body, said control body being rotatable in two-opposite directions without moving in an axial direction relative to said housing part with said first control part moving said connecting body from the inactive initial position to the active extraction position by engagement of said control part and said sloped control path;
• a functional body on said connecting body for dispensing said dispensable medium, said functional body by being covered by said control body;
• and
• an outer sheath extending over said control body and said housing part and having sheath parts separable from one another along a separation point to expose said control body and said housing part.
