Abstract
A precompression pump has a hollow cylindrical pump body 1 extending axially between a first end 1a and a second end 1c, an annular piston 3 sliding axially in the pump body, the piston and the pump body defining a pump chamber 6, and a push rod 40 for controlling the piston and sliding axially inside it. The push rod includes an outlet channel 41a, 42a which opens out inside the pump body via a lateral opening 42b, and the piston is displaceable relative to the push rod to close the lateral opening or to put it into communication with the pump chamber. A resilient precompression spring 47 urges the piston towards the pump chamber and towards a rest position in which it closes the lateral opening of the outlet channel, and a central section of the piston is isolated from the pump chamber, at least while the piston is in the rest position.
