What is claimed is: 1. A manually-actuated device for dispensing a fluid in liquid or powder form and that comprises a fluid reservoir (10), dispensing means (20) for selectively dispensing the fluid contained in the reservoir (10), a dispensing head (30) provided with a dispensing orifice (31), an
What is claimed is: 1. A manually-actuated device for dispensing a fluid in liquid or powder form and that comprises a fluid reservoir (10), dispensing means (20) for selectively dispensing the fluid contained in the reservoir (10), a dispensing head (30) provided with a dispensing orifice (31), and an actuating system (40) for manually actuating said dispensing means (20), said device being provided with a cap (50) mounted to move between a rest position, in which it covers the dispensing orifice (31) and prevents the dispensing means (20) from being actuated, and an in-use position, in which it uncovers the dispensing orifice (31) and enables the dispensing means (20) to be actuated, characterized in that said cap (50) is a captive cap and is independent from the actuating system (40) and wherein said cap (50) is moved axially in translation and in rotation relative to said dispensing head (30). 2. A device according to claim 1, in which said device is provided with locking means (60) for locking the dispensing means (20), which locking means prevent said dispensing means (20) from being actuated, said cap (50) moving and/or deforming said locking means (60) when it is moved into its in-use position to enable the dispensing means (20) to be actuated. 3. A device according to claim 2, in which said locking means (60) are resilient tabs (60) which, when the cap (50) is in the rest position, prevent the dispensing head (30) and the reservoir (10) from moving relative to each other, said tabs ( 60) being deformed by the cap (50) when it is in the in-use position. 4. A device according to claim 1, in which said cap (50 ) comprises a substantially cylindrical body (51) that surrounds the dispensing head (30) when the cap is in the rest position, and a cover (52) mounted to move relative to said body (51), said cover (52) being opened by the user firstly to uncover the dispensing orifice (31), and secondly to move said cover (50 ) into its in-use position. 5. A device according to claim 1, wherein the cap comprises one or more projections or one or more grooves that cooperate with additional one or more projections or one or move grooves of the dispensing device. 6. A device according to claim 1, in which, when the cap ( 50) is in the rest position, it covers the actuating system (40 ), thereby preventing access to said actuating system (40). 7. A device according to claim 6, in which said cap (50 ) comprises a substantially cylindrical body (51) which, when the cap is in the rest position, surrounds the dispensing head (30) and the actuating system (40), and a cover (52) mounted to move relative to said body (51), said cover (52) opening automatically to uncover the dispensing orifice (31) when the user moves said cap (50) towards its in-use position. 8. A device according to claim 7, in which said cap (50 ) is moved in rotation about said dispensing head (30) and about said actuating system (40), this movement in rotation causing said cap (50) to be moved axially relative to said dispensing head ( 30). 9. A device according to claim 6, in which said actuating system (40) comprises a side actuating element (41), said cap (50) having a side wall (53) covering said side actuating element (41) when said cap is in the rest position. 10. A device according to claim 1, in which said dispensing means (20) are implemented in the form of a pump that is actuated manually. 11. A device according to claim 1, in which said dispensing means (20) comprise piezoelectric or electrostatic spray means, the device including electronic means (70) for enabling and/or for disabling actuation of said dispensing means (20), said electronic means (70) being activated and/or deactivated by said cap ( 50). 12. A device according to claim 11, in which locking elements (80) cooperate with the actuating system (40), said locking elements (80) being mounted to move between an locking position and a release position, and being moved between these positions by said electronic means (70). 13. A device according to claim 12, in which said locking elements are tabs (80) for locking the actuating button (41) of the device, said electronic means (70) comprising a contactor (71) that comes into contact with the captive cap (50) when said cap is in the in-use position, said contactor (71) causing said tabs (80) to move into their release position when it is contact with said captive cap. 14. A device according to claim 1, further comprising a dispensing body and wherein the cap comprises slanting ribs or grooves which cooperate with corresponding ribs or grooves in the dispensing body so as to allow simultaneous movement of the cap in rotation and translation. 15. A manually-actuated device for dispensing a fluid in liquid or powder form and that comprises a fluid reservoir (10), dispensing means (20) for selectively dispensing the fluid contained in the reservoir (10), a dispensing head (30) provided with a dispensing orifice (31), and an actuating system (40) for manually actuating said dispensing means (20), said device being provided with a cap (50) mounted to move between a rest position, in which it covers the dispensing orifice (31) and prevents the dispensing means (20) from being actuated, and an in-use position, in which it uncovers the dispensing orifice (31) and enables the dispensing means (20) to be actuated, characterized in that said cap (50) is a captive cap and is independent from the actuating system (40); in which when the cap (50) is in the rest position, it covers the actuating system (40), thereby preventing access to said actuating system (40); in which said cap (50) comprises a substantially cylindrical body (51) which, when the cap is in the rest position, surrounds the dispensing head (30) and the actuating system ( 40), and a cover (52) mounted to move relative to said body (51), said cover (52) opening automatically to uncover the dispensing orifice (31) when the user moves said cap (50) towards its in-use position; and in which said cap (50) is moved in rotation about said dispensing head (30) and about said actuating system (40), this movement in rotation causing said cap (50) to be moved axially relative to said dispensing head (30).
