ABSTRACT:
An actuating device for avoiding inadvertent triggering of a dispensing valve, and hence undesired expulsion of packed product, in a simple and economical manner. According to the invention, the device has a fixed annular collar, an actuating plate with a circular base, an articulation area including, for example, a film hinge, and a force activation area. The force activating area of the base includes a radial cutout defining a recess having a bearing surface in which a tongue can engage. The tongue has a free end and a joined end and can assume a locking position and a dispensing position. In the locking position, the free end engages the recess provided in the radial cutout of the plate and abuts the bearing surface to prevent pivoting plate movement. In the dispensing position, the tongue is retracted inside the plate, allowing pivotal movement of the plate around its articulation to the annular collar.
