Patent attributes
A fluid dispenser device has a reservoir, a pump, a dispensing outlet, an actuator, and a removable cap. The actuator is integrally formed with the dispensing outlet in at least one embodiment. The cap has detents that project from the cap. The actuator is blocked from actuating by a blocking flange that is integrally connected with the dispensing outlet. The detents from the cap bend the blocking flange so that the reservoir can not move in relation to the dispensing outlet when the cap is in a closed position. When the cap is removed, the detents no longer bend the blocking flange, and the actuator can then move the reservoir in relation to the dispensing outlet and affect dispensation. In at least one embodiment the actuator is not axially aligned with the dispensing outlet.
