Pump for dispensing a fluid product, having a piston having a pump chamber and an inlet and outlet valve. The outlet valve has an outlet valve element that slides inside the pump chamber. The pump chamber has a passage so that, at the end of actuation, the outlet valve element collaborates non-sealingly with the passage to open the outlet valve to expel product. The inlet valve has an inlet valve element sliding in a sleeve containing a spring pressing against the inlet valve element and against an end wall of the sleeve. The outlet valve element is formed by a component inserted with the ability to move into the piston, with the interposition of a second spring, the force exerted by the second spring is greater than the force exerted by the spring in the rest position, and less than the force exerted by the spring in the actuated position.
A pump for dispensing a fluid product comprising a piston secured to an actuating stem and which slides in a pump body having a pump chamber defined between an inlet valve and an outlet valve, said outlet valve comprising an outlet valve element sliding during actuation in a sealed manner along the pump chamber, said pump chamber comprising passage means such that, at the end of actuation of the pump, said outlet valve element co-operates in a non-sealed manner with said passage means in order to open said outlet valve to allow the expulsion of the product contained in the pump chamber, said inlet valve comprising an inlet valve element which slides after closure of the inlet valve in a sleeve of the pump body, said sleeve having a reduced diameter and containing a spring pressing firstly on said inlet valve element and secondly on a bottom of said sleeve, said spring, in addition expelling the product, also returning the piston into its rest position, wherein said outlet valve element is formed by a separate part which is inserted movably in said piston, with the interposition of a second spring, the force exerted by said second spring being greater than the force exerted by said spring in position at rest, and less than the force exerted by said spring in the actuated position;
