Device comprising a non-return valve

摘要

The invention relates to a device for dispensing a liquid, including a piston that is movable within a chamber and a nozzle connected to the piston such that the movement of the piston causes the movement of the nozzle, wherein one end of the piston engages the chamber so as to form a non-return valve.

主权项

1. A device for dispensing a liquid, said device comprising:
a tubular body closed at an upper end by an upper stopper and closed at a lower end by a lower stopper, the lower stopper including an opening through which washing fluid can penetrate into a chamber of the body, an end of the opening comprising a truncated conical shaped portion; a piston movably disposed within the chamber, a lower end of the piston comprising:
a spherically shaped cap, the spherically shaped cap disposable within the truncated conical shaped portion of the body lower stopper to provide a circular line seal;a shoulder defining a circular space between the piston and the tubular body; andan annual groove formed between the shoulder and the spherically shaped cap; a compression spring disposed between the piston and the tubular body, the spring structured and operable to apply a force to the shoulder for disposing the spherically shaped cap within the truncated conical shaped portion of the lower stopper; a washer disposed within the annular groove, the washer structured and operable to prevent the washing fluid from being introduced into the circular space between the piston and the tubular body; and a nozzle connected to the piston such that movement of the piston causes movement of the nozzle.
