Dispenser of a fluid substance
A dispenser of a fluid substance includes: a container of the fluid substance; a measuring cup for dosing the fluid substance to be dispensed; a first line for the fluid-dynamic connection between the measuring cup and the container for the transit of the fluid substance; a second line for the fluid-dynamic connection between the measuring cup and the container for the transit of air; a valve movable between a first configuration in which it allows the fluid-dynamic connection between the container and the measuring cup by the first and the second connection line and a second configuration in which it prevents the fluid-dynamic connection between the container and the measuring cup by the first and the second connection line; and an actuator for operating the valve, the actuator being operable by a user.

4 . The dispenser according to claim 2 , characterised in that the second line ( 42 ) comprises a second funnel ( 422 ) which extends in the container ( 2 ), in the first configuration the valve ( 5 ) putting the first and the second funnel ( 421 , 422 ) in communication and allowing the transit of air along the second line ( 42 ).
5 . The dispenser according to claim 1 , characterised in that said valve ( 5 ) comprises a drawer ( 50 ) in which the first and the second passage hole ( 51 , 52 ) are obtained; the first and the second passage hole ( 51 , 52 ) crossing the drawer ( 50 ) from side to side.
6 . The dispenser according to claim 1 , characterised in that the first and the second passage hole ( 51 , 52 ) are located at a mutual distance which is fixed and invariable in both the first and the second configuration.
7 . The dispenser according to claim 1 , characterised in that the dispenser comprises an elastic means ( 6 ) which spontaneously moves the valve ( 5 ) from the second towards the first configuration.
8 . The dispenser according to claim 1 , characterised in that the dispenser comprises a connector ( 7 ) to which the container ( 2 ) and the measuring cup ( 3 ) are constrained from opposite sides; said valve ( 5 ) being integrated in said connector ( 7 ).
9 . The dispenser according to claim 1 , characterised in that the dispenser comprises:
a dispenser ( 30 ) which allows dispensing the fluid substance present in the measuring cup ( 3 ) outside the dispenser ( 1 );
a cover ( 8 ) which allows to occlude the dispenser ( 30 );
the measuring cup ( 3 ) being at least partially interposed between the cover ( 8 ) and the container ( 2 ); a graduated scale having increasing numerical references as the graduated scale moves away from the cover ( 8 ).
10 . A dispenser of a fluid substance comprising:
a container ( 2 ) of the fluid substance;
a measuring cup ( 3 ) for dosing the fluid substance to be dispensed;
a first line ( 41 ) for a fluid-dynamic connection between the measuring cup ( 3 ) and the container ( 2 ) for a transit of the fluid substance;
a second line ( 42 ) for a fluid-dynamic connection between the measuring cup ( 3 ) and the container ( 2 ) for a transit of air;
a valve ( 5 ) movable between a first configuration in which the valve ( 5 ) allows the fluid-dynamic connection between the container ( 2 ) and the measuring cup ( 3 ) by means of the first and the second line ( 41 , 42 ) and a second configuration in which the valve ( 5 ) prevents the fluid-dynamic connection between the container ( 2 ) and the measuring cup ( 3 ) by means of the first and the second line ( 41 , 42 ); the second line ( 42 ) comprises a first funnel ( 421 ) which protrudes in the measuring cup ( 3 ) and a second funnel ( 422 ) which extends in the container ( 2 ); in the first configuration the valve ( 5 ) putting the first and the second funnel ( 421 , 422 ) in communication and allowing the transit of air along the second line ( 42 );
an actuator ( 50 ) for operating the valve ( 5 ), said actuator ( 50 ) being operable by a user.
11 . A dispenser of a fluid substance comprising:
a container ( 2 ) of the fluid substance;
