Piston for dispensing a flowable component from a cartridge

A piston for dispensing a flowable component from a cartridge, the piston comprising

• a base body;
• and
• a venting element,
• the base body having a component side, an actuation side and a passage connecting the component side and the actuation side and having a passage opening;
• the venting element having
• an internal connection element by which the venting element is connected to the base body, and having an internal surface extending in an axial direction in a direction of the actuation side;
• a pin arranged at least partly in the passage of the base body, and
• a spring element connecting the internal connection element and the pin, and which is connected to the internal connection element along a connection line defined by the internal surface of the internal connection element,
• the pin of the venting element
• configured to adopt
• a sealing position in which the pin is aligned along the axial direction and the passage opening is closed in an airtight manner, and
• an aerating position in which an exchange of air is capable between the component side and the actuation side via the passage,
• the venting element being arranged and configured such that the spring element is configured to urge the pin into the sealing position, and
• the spring element extending from the internal connection element so as to define an angle of a maximum of 80° with the internal surface of the internal connection element at the connection line in the sealing position of the pin.
