Abstract
A fluid product sample is provided in the form of a substantially flat dispenser. A preferred embodiment includes (1) at least one thermoformed shell forming part of a reservoir and defining a deformable actuation wall; (2) an additional element, such as a capsule-forming substrate or film or a thermoformed shell for finishing off the reservoir, with the reservoir formed in this way containing at least a gas; (3) a spray orifice through which the fluid is sprayed; (4) a porous material piece which is capable of retaining a quantity of fluid and which is disposed upstream from the spray orifice; and (5) a support member fixed to the thermoformed shell to hold the porous material piece in place. The spray orifice is formed by the support member.
Claims29
A fluid product dispenser in the form of a substantially flat dispenser comprising:
- at least one shell forming of a resevoir and defining a deformable actuation wall;
- an additional element such as a capsule-forming substrate or film or a shell for finishing off the reservoir, with the reservoir formed in this way containing at least a gas;
- a spray orifice through which the fluid is sprayed;
- a porous material piece capable of retaining a quantity of fluid, said piece being disposed upstream from the spray orifice;
- and
- a support member fixed to the shell to hold the porous material piece in place,
- said spray orifice formed on the support member.
A fluid product dispenser comprising:
- a reservoir containing fluid product and gas, said reservoir having a deformable actuation wall, said reservoir further comprising:
- at least one shell forming part of the reservoir and defining the deformable actuation wall;
- and
- an additional element such as a capsule-forming substrate or film or a shell for finishing off the reservoir;
- a spray orifice through which the fluid is sprayed;
- a porous material piece capable of retaining a quantity of fluid, said piece being disposed upstream from the spray orifice;
- and
- a support member to hold the porous material piece in place close to the spray orifice, said spray orifice formed on the support member, said shell further includes a non-deformable wall portion, and the spray orifice also opens out in said non-deformable wall portion of said shell.
A fluid product dispenser comprising:
- a reservoir containing fluid product and gas, said reservoir having a deformable actuation wall, said reservoir further comprising:
- at least one shell forming part of the reservoir and defining the deformable actuation wall;
- and
- an additional element such as a capsule-forming substrate or film or a shell for finishing off the reservoir;
- a spray orifice through which the fluid is sprayed;
- a porous material piece capable of retaining a quantity of fluid, said piece being disposed upstream from the spray orifice;
- and
- a support member on which the spray orifice is formed and which holds the porous material piece in close to the spray orifice.
A fluid product dispenser comprising:
- a reservoir containing fluid product and gas, said reservoir having a deformable actuation wall;
- a spray orifice through which the fluid is sprayed;
- a porous material piece capable of retaining a quantity of fluid, said piece being disposed upstream from the spray orifice;
- and
- a support member to hold the porous material piece in place close to the spray orifice, said support member defining a housing in which the porous material piece is housed, said support member including a separation wall that locally subdivides the reservoir into compartments, and said spray orifice being formed on said support member.
A fluid product dispenser comprising:
- a reservoir containing fluid product and gas, said reservoir having a deformable actuation wall;
- a spray orifice through which the fluid is sprayed;
- a porous material piece capable of retaining a quantity of fluid, said piece being disposed upstream from the spray orifice;
- and
- a support member to hold the porous material piece in place close to the spray orifice,
- said spray orifice ormed on the support member, and the porous material piece is of a shape suitable for increasing its external surface area so as to increase its area of contact with the gas during dispensing.
