The present disclosure relates to an insert module which is configured to be removably positioned in a dispenser for liquid, wherein the dispenser comprises a dispensing mechanism which causes liquid to be discharged, and wherein the dispenser is suited for comprising a replaceable liquid container for said liquid. The insert module is configured for accommodating said liquid container.

Insert module in a dispenser

The present disclosure relates to a dispenser system comprising a dispenser and a replaceable liquid container, wherein said liquid container has a unique identity and is provided with a transponder unit with stored identification data representing said identity; wherein a transponder reader unit for cooperating with said transponder unit is located within the dispenser and wherein the transponder reader unit is configured for communicating with an external computer unit; and wherein the dispenser system is configured for detecting the usage of said liquid container so as to indicate whether said liquid container needs to be replaced. Furthermore, the dispenser system comprises an insert module which is removably arranged in said dispenser and which is configured for accommodating a liquid container.

Dispenser system comprising a dispenser and a replaceable liquid container

The present disclosure relates to a dispenser system comprising a dispenser and a replaceable liquid container, and a dispensing mechanism causing fluid to be discharged from the liquid container upon actuation and comprising a pump unit for discharging said liquid; said dispenser also comprising a detection unit for detecting displacement of said pump unit; and wherein information related to said displacement can be transmitted to an external computer unit. The pump unit is configured with a displaceable element which, upon actuation, has a linear motion during discharging of liquid, that the displaceable element interacts with a rotating gear element, and that the gear element is associated with a sensor of the magnetometer type.

Dispenser comprising a replaceable liquid container

The disclosure relates to a fluid pump including a plastomer spring with a captive valve element provided in an integrally formed valve chamber. The spring includes a first end portion and a second end portion and one or more spring sections connecting the first end portion to the second end portion, which spring sections can be compressed in the axial direction from an initial condition to a compressed condition and can subsequently expand to their initial condition. The valve chamber is formed in the first end portion.

Plastomer spring with captive valve

A fluid pump includes a plastomer spring. The spring includes a first end portion and a second end portion and a plurality of rhombus shaped spring sections, joined together in series at adjacent corners and aligned with each other in an axial direction to connect the first end portion to the second end portion. The spring sections can be compressed in the axial direction from an initial condition to a compressed condition and can subsequently expand to their initial condition.

Pump with a polymer spring

A pump includes a housing forming a chamber; a dispensing opening; and a regulator fixedly arranged in the chamber. The regulator includes an inner valve for regulating a flow of liquid between the container and the chamber; an outer valve for regulating a flow of liquid between the chamber and the dispensing opening; a stem resilient along its length, sideways bendable, and extending in a longitudinal direction of the housing between the inner valve and the outer valve; and a displacement guide located at an outer portion of the stem on an inner side of the outer valve. An outer perimeter of the displacement guide and a portion of an internal surface of a guide region located adjacent the displacement guide are adapted to transfer the sideways bending of the stem to a relative displacement between the outer valve and the housing along the longitudinal direction of the housing.

Pump for a system for dispensing a liquid as a spray, a spray nozzle unit, a system for dispensing a liquid as a spray and a method for dispensing a liquid as a spray

A pump for dispensing a fluid product from a product container, includes a unitary pump body defining an axis and including a pump chamber, a pump inlet and a pump outlet. The pump chamber is collapsible over an axially directed pumping stroke from an initial condition to a collapsed condition and is biased to return to its initial condition in a return stroke. An axially compressible spring is arranged to at least partially support the pump body during its collapse.
