In case of poorly controlled or partial actuation, there may be problems of over- and / or under-counting and / or incomplete or faulty distribution.
- a second family of counters comprises counters arranged inside the body being attached to either the body or the mobile reservoir in said body. This type of counter has the particular disadvantage of a complex assembly and requires substantial modifications of the various constituent parts of the dispensing device.

- the example shown in Figure 1 shows two sets of numbers from 0 to 9, distributed over said periphery.
- the lower face of said disk comprises said first peripheral toothing 411, as visible in FIG. 8b.
- the teeth of the first toothing 411 are oriented axially.
- the upper face of said first counting element 410 may comprise a central planar portion surrounding the central opening 415, extended radially outwardly by said first edge portion. 412 device axially raised relative to said central portion.
- the first peripheral edge portion 412 extends radially outwardly by an outer flat portion 413 which does not extend over the entire periphery, but which is interrupted by at least one, preferably two flexible tabs 418, each having a ergot 419 at its end.

- the first counting element 410 comprises at least one deformable finger 418, preferably two diametrically opposed fingers, the deformable finger (s) being (are) adapted to cooperate all ten actuations with a cam integral with the body of based.
- the second toothing 421 of the second counting element 420 is intended to cooperate with the lug 419 of a deformable finger 418 of the first counting element each time it is moved towards its deformed position by said cam.
- the cam provided in said base body is adapted to deform elastically a deformable finger 418 radially inwardly, each time that the lug 419 of said deformable finger 418 cooperates with said cam. When the finger 418 is not deformed, said pin 419 does not cooperate with said second set of teeth 421.
- the first counting element 410 comprises two diametrically opposed deformable fingers 418, as well as two series of numbers 0 to 9 distributed over the periphery. All ten operations, one of the two deformable fingers 418 cooperates with said cam, preferably provided radially outwardly relative to said fingers, to deform inwardly and thus allow said lug 419 to cooperate with the second toothing 421 of the second counting element 420.
- the second counting element 420 is then also rotated.
- the third toothing 426 of the second counting element 420 is intended to cooperate with non-return means, for example a projection which can be secured to the base body 460. It should be noted that the non-return means could also cooperate with the second toothing, in which case the second counting element 420 could have only one toothing.
- An advantage of the meter of the present invention is that it allows the display in large size without increasing the bulk of the counter.
- the example shown allows for a counter of 200 doses, to display numbers (units on the one hand, tens on the other hand) having a height greater than 2 mm, preferably about 2.5 mm, and a width greater than 1.5 mm, preferably about 2 mm. This represents an increase in figure size up to 50% over existing meters.
- the indicator is adapted to indicate the number of doses remaining to be distributed so that the displayed figure decreases with each actuation.
- the opposite is of course also possible, namely a counter that counts the number of doses distributed.
- said actuating member 430 is assembled in said base body 460 by being fitted around the axis of rotation 461, as can be seen in particular in FIGS. 5 and 6.
- This actuating member comprises a tab 431 supporting a pin 4310 adapted to cooperate with the first toothing 411 of the first counting element
- This tab 431 can extend radially downwardly from the axis of rotation 461, when the meter is in its normal vertical position of use. However, it could also extend in another direction, for example horizontally in the position of use.
- the tab 431 is extended on the other side of the axis of rotation 461 by a substantially rigid radial rectilinear portion 432, itself connected to an elastically deformable portion 434 forming a loop to bypass the axis of rotation 461.
- elastically deformable portion 434 is extended by a rigid support portion 436 supporting the actuating element 435, which is movable in the same direction as the reservoir with which it cooperates.
- abutment means 463, 464 are provided to form a stop for the rotational displacement of the tab 431.
- These abutment means may advantageously be formed by two projections 463, 464 of the base body 460 which can cooperate with the rectilinear part. substantially rigid 432 which extends the tab 431, on the other side of the axis of rotation 461 in the example shown in the figures.
- Other abutment means are also conceivable.
- the tab 431 is substantially rigid but is flexible in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the base body 460. This allows the tab 431 to deform slightly to allow to the pin 4310 to slide on the toothing 411 and to mesh in the next tooth.
- the actuating member 430 comprises elastic means 469, such as an elastic blade which cooperates with a suitable shoulder 468 of the base body 460 to form a return spring for the actuating member 430. As shown, this elastic blade 469 extends perpendicularly to the flexible tab 431. Of course, if the flexible tab 431 extended in another direction (for example, that of the elastic blade 469 in FIG.
- this elastic blade could also extend in another direction.
- the elastic blade 469 and the flexible lug 431 could be inverted with respect to the configuration of FIGS. 5 and 6.
- the axially deformable portion 434 of the actuating member 430 supporting the actuating element 435 makes it possible to continue the rectilinear displacement of the actuating element 435 (and therefore the reservoir) after the abutment position of the tab 431 defined by the projection has been reached.
- This stop may be formed such that exactly one rotation of a tooth is obtained when the stop position is reached.
- the deformable portion 434 of the actuator member 430 allows the axial displacement of the reservoir to continue its term. Moreover, this system makes it possible to operate the meter before the start of the distribution of the product.
- the counter of the invention by its components and the arrangement of these with respect to each other, thus makes it possible to produce a counter which can be pre-assembled to form a counter unit, and which has in its pre-assembled state a very small thickness, typically less than or equal to 7 mm, advantageously less than 6 mm and possibly even less than 5 mm.
