Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9731563A1] A cosmetic dispenser which has one or more cosmetic cartridges (22) that can be removed from a dispenser cabinet when the cosmetic substance within the cartridge has become depleted. The cabinet has a cover (48) that is pivotally connected to a base (50). The base is typically mounted to a wall of a hotel bathroom. The cover encloses the cosmetic cartridges that are located within an inner cavity of the cabinet. The cosmetic cartridges are secured to the base by a plurality of spring latch fingers (32) which can be deflected to attach and remove the cartridge from the cabinet. Each cartridge has a reciprocable piston pump (28) sealingly engaged in a neck of the cartridge, the pump being actuable by depression of a hollow dispensing nozzle (30) connected to the piston of the pump. The piston pump may be a conventional dispenser pump of a top dispensing container modified by fluidically sealing air vents provided in the pump body adjacent one end remote from a check valve located at an opposite end.
