Abstract:
1. A fluid dispenser device comprising a body ( 1 ), a fluid reservoir ( 3 ), a dispensing member having a piston or a valve member that is mounted to move axially, and an actuating element ( 5 ) mounted to move between a rest position and an actuating position, for actuating the dispensing member and thus for selectively dispensing the fluid contained in the reservoir ( 3 ), said fluid dispenser device being characterized in that the direction in which said actuating element ( 5 ) moves is different from the axial direction in which the piston or the valve member of the dispensing member moves, a cam surface provided on a radially inner edge of the actuating element ( 6 ) which abuts an abutting member which is movable and rides on the cam surface, the abutting member being coupled to the reservoir ( 3 ) or a fixing ring ( 8 ) adapted to fix the dispensing member to the reservoir ( 3 ), so that the actuating element ( 5 ) being moved substantially radially into its actuating position causes the abutting member to move along the cam surface and the reservoir ( 3 ) to be moved axially relative to the piston or to the valve member of the dispensing member so as to dispense a dose of fluid.
