ATOMISING APPARATUS; NOZZLES (spray-mixers with nozzles B01F25/72; processes for applying liquids or other fluent materials to surfaces by spraying B05D) ## Abstract A bottle for dispensing a fluid product including a body wherein a reservoir is formed, the bottle including a device for sampling having a push-button with a dispensing orifice for the product, the push-button able to be displaced reversibly on an actuating stroke of the device between a position at rest and a depressed position wherein the dispensing orifice is in communication with the reservoir by the intermediary of the device, the body including a filling valve, the reservoir having an air depression arranged to carry out filling of the reservoir through suction of the product contained in a source, the bottle further including a cap which is associated to the body by forming a sealed internal space wherein the push-button is arranged, the internal space having an air depression and being arranged to maintain the push-button in depressed position to be in communication with the reservoir. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A bottle for dispensing a fluid product, comprising: a body wherein a reservoir containing said product is formed; a device for sampling of said product which is mounted in a sealed manner on said body, said device for sampling being provided with a push-button which is provided with a dispensing orifice of said product, said push-button able to be displaced reversibly on an actuating stroke of said device between a position at rest and a depressed position wherein the dispensing orifice is in communication with the reservoir via said device; said body being equipped with a filling valve of said reservoir which is arranged to allow for communication of a product source with said reservoir, the reservoir having an air depression which is arranged in order to be able to carry out the filling of the reservoir with product by putting into sealed communication of the product source with said reservoir by an intermediary of the filling valve in such a way that said depression induces the filling of said reservoir through suction of the product contained in said product source; said bottle further comprising a removable cap which is associated to the body by forming a sealed internal space wherein said push-button is arranged, said internal space having an air depression and being arranged to maintain said push-button in depressed position in such a way that said internal space is in communication with the reservoir. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 1, characterised in that the cap has an upper wall which is pressing against the push-button in order to maintain the push button in depressed position. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 2, characterised in that the upper wall is surrounded by a skirt having a sealed association surface on a wall of the body. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 1, characterised in that the sealed association between the cap and the body is carried out under the effect of the air depression. ### Claim 5 (depends on 3) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 3, characterised in that the association surface is deformed under the effect of the air depression in order to provide for a tight seal on the wall. ### Claim 6 (depends on 3) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 3, characterised in that the association surface is mounted around the wall in order to be radially tightened on said wall. ### Claim 7 (depends on 3) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 3, characterised in that the body has a groove wherein the association surface is arranged in order to be thrust against the corner on the wall. ### Claim 8 (depends on 3) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 3, characterised in that a seal is inserted between the association surface and the wall of the body. ### Claim 9 (depends on 3) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 3, characterised in that the skirt is rigid and has an axial dimension that is arranged to maintain the push-button in depressed position. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 9, characterised in that the association surface has an axial dimension which is less than the actuating stroke of the push-button. ### Claim 11 (depends on 3) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 3, characterised in that the skirt has an elastically compressible zone which is arranged between the upper wall and the association surface, said zone being compressed by the air depression in order to provide for the maintaining of the push-button in depressed position. ### Claim 12 (depends on 1) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 1, characterised in that the device for sampling is of the airless type in the reservoir as compensation for the volume of product distributed. ### Claim 13 (depends on 1) The bottle for dispensing according to claim 1, characterised in that the device for sampling has a vent hole which is arranged to compensate for the volume of product sampled in the reservoir by air, said vent hole being in communication with the sealed internal space.
