DISPENSER WITH IMPROVED BOTTLE CONNECTION AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME

摘要

A manually operated reciprocating fluid pump configured to be secured to a container's mouth comprises a dispenser body and a lower member (34) connected to the dispenser body. The dispenser body has a pump mechanism, a discharge port, and a discharge liquid flow path providing fluid communication between the pump mechanism and discharge port. The lower member is of a molded one piece construction and comprises a housing portion (54) and a seal portion (58). The housing portion has an intake port adapted for fluid communication with liquid contained in the container. The housing portion at least in part defines an intake liquid flow path providing fluid communication between the intake port and the pump mechanism. The seal portion is engageable with the container and is shaped and configured for providing a fluid-tight seal between the lower member and the mouth of the container. The seal portion is of a first material and the housing portion is of a second material different from the first material. The first material cooperates with the second material in a molded configuration to maintain securement of the seal portion to the housing portion.
