A dispenser for dispensing a metered volume of a fluid product having a
storage chamber for storing the fluid product, an outlet orifice through
which the fluid product is dispensable from the dispenser and a metering
chamber is disclosed. The metering chamber has an outlet opening which
places the metering chamber in fluid communication with the outlet
orifice, a transfer opening through which the fluid product is
transferable between the storage and metering chambers, and a boundary
wall structure which is cyclically movable between a first configuration,
in which the transfer opening is opened, and a second configuration, in
which the transfer opening is closed. Each cycle of movement which
commences at, and ends in, the second configuration results in a metered
volume of the fluid product being transferred from the storage chamber to
the metering chamber via the transfer opening and dispensed from the
outlet orifice via the outlet opening. The dispenser further has an
actuation mechanism actuable by a user of the dispenser to cause a cycle
of movement of the boundary wall structure. The actuation mechanism is
adapted so as to dispose the boundary wall structure in the second
configuration at the end of each cycle of movement caused thereby.
