PUMP

摘要

A manually operated pump and a method for pumping a preferably cosmetic liquid are proposed in which actuation is performed either by manual linear actuation or by swiveling actuation using a lever mechanism. The pump can be equipped with a locking device that blocks actuation of the pump in the locked state. The delivery head of the pump can be integrally formed with the swivel lever. Moreover, components of the pump can advantageously be provided with a flexible or elastic layer.

主权项

1. A manually operated pump for a preferably cosmetic liquid, such as hair spray, particularly from an associated liquid container, wherein the pump has a first actuation element with a first actuation area and is constructed such that the first actuation area can be moved manually in a first direction of actuation to actuate the pump,
wherein the pump has a second actuation element with a second actuation area separated from the first actuation area and is constructed such that the second actuation area can be moved manually in a second direction of actuation that is different from the first direction of actuation to actuate the pump, and/or wherein a pump element of the pump can selectively be depressed manually and linearly via the first actuation area, particularly via a delivery head, or actuated manually via a mechanism, particularly a lever mechanism.
