Definitions

Such a device may include a return means arranged so that the valve is subjected to a return force tending to return the valve to its closed state, these return means comprising an elastic tongue acting as a spring. With such a return means, the sealing of the device is considerably improved.
the bottom of the bag can deviate (relative to the closed state of the dispensing valve) from the second inner wall of the dispensing duct, and the second inner wall can be provided with a convex bump and the bottom of the pocket can be provided with a concave cavity of shape complementary to the convex bump so that in the closed state, the concave cavity follows the shape of the convex bump.
pocket-shaped return means 29 Another important advantage of the pocket-shaped return means 29 is its stability when it is inserted into the distribution duct 8. On the contrary, a return means according to the state of the art in the form of a concave tongue risks turn over and become convex in the interior of the distribution duct when inserting the distribution valve into the distribution duct for mounting.
the pocket 106 is a pocket opened in a single plane by the opening delimited by the outer edge 112 (outer edge which is contained in this same plane).
the dispensing valve is, in its open state, deformed by compression (and not by traction) perpendicular to the direction of distribution 10 and of elongation of the conduit 8 by relative to its closed state, so as to press the dispensing valve on a side wall of the duct 8.
