Claim 1

A container for a product to be dispensed, said container having a dispensing orifice, a flexible membrane positioned so as to close said orifice, said membrane having a portion fixed to the container and being at least partly resiliently deformable to move away from said orifice under the influence of the product being dispensed and to move back to a rest position closing said orifice upon termination of the dispensing of the product, said membrane having an interior face opposing said orifice, said face including a pin member insertable into said orifice when said membrane is in said rest position, said membrane further including an opening for the passage of the product to the outside during dispensing, said container being pressurized and including a distributor head, said distributor head including an outlet channel which leads to said orifice; said outlet channel including a longitudinal axis, said membrane being symmetrical with respect to said axis of said outlet channel, said pin member being located on said interior face at a point intersected by extension of said axis of said outlet channel, said opening in said membrane for the passage of the product being located at a position spaced from said point of intersection of said axis with said membrane, said orifice being formed in a component made of rigid material and which serves as a seat for said flexible membrane, said membrane covering said component in its entirety, said component having a periphery and said membrane being fixed to said periphery of said component, said opening having edges which cooperate with the rigid surface of an element projecting from a portion of said component.
