ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to improvements in or relating to a nozzle arrangement. Th nozzle arrangement of the present invention are adapted to be fitted to a container and actuate the release of the contents stored in the container. The nozzle arrangement has a body (101) which comprises an outlet through which, in use, fluid is ejected from the nozzle arrangement and is formed from at least a first part (102) and a second part (103), the first part having an inlet (120) through which the contents of the container admit fluid into the nozzle arrangement during use and an abutment surface (105) which contact an abutment surface (106) of the second part. The abutment surface (105,106) of the first and second parts define a fluid flow passageway (122,123) therebetween, which connects the inlet (120) to the outlet (124), as well as a seal that is adapted to contain any fluid that leaks from the inlet and/or at least a portion of the fluid flow passage (122,123) during use. The seal is formed by a recessed formation (203,204) disposed in one of said abutment surfaces (105,106) and a corresponding projection formation (201,202) disposed on the opposing surface which is adapted to be received within, and form a sealing engagement with, the recessed formation (203,204). The seal defines an internally sealed compartment between said abutment surfaces which extends around said inlet and at least a portion of the fluid flow passageway.
