Abstract
Device for dispensing fluid, comprising a body, a push-button and locking means. The body is intended to be fixed to the neck of a bottle. The push-button can be depressed in relation to the body in an activating direction between a rest position and a depressed position in order to control fluid-dispensing means. The locking means have an active state in which they prevent the push-button from being depressed in the activating direction and an inactive state in which they allow the pressing action. In order to move the locking means from the inactive state to the active state thereof, a force must be applied to the push-button in the activating direction in order to displace the push-button, from the rest position to a locked position, by translation in relation to the body in the opposite sense to that in which it is pressed in.
