Abstract
A device for dispensing, especially atomizing, a preferably cosmetic liquid has a dispensing head which can be manually depressed for dispensing of the liquid and can be turned to set the dispensing direction. In order to ensure simple and reliable handling, the device has a catch arrangement so that the dispensing head can be turned with a catching action. In a preferred embodiment, the catch arrangement has at least one catch cam, preferably several catch cams that are spaced in the direction of rotation. The catch cam or cams engage catch recesses with a catching action, especially radially relative to the actuation direction of the delivery head.
