Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an adapter device for breakable bulb. Frequently used in medicine, hygiene, perfumery, etc., products intended to be sprayed (atomized), for example on the surface of the skin, or in the throat, ears, etc.
  • the product to be sprayed is generally packaged in a bottle fitted with a spraying device, operating either under the effect of a propellant gas (dissolved or not), or by manual action (pump).
  • the product to be sprayed can remain for a fairly long time in contact with the various parts of the sprayer, plastic parts, seals made of various elastomers. There may be air intakes in the bottle, or even product leaks, which can be polluted or degraded.
  • the invention relates to a device making it possible to combine the advantages of the product sold in a breakable bulb, with those of the product sold directly in a sprayer.
  • the object of the invention is a simple device, in a single piece, ready to receive a glass bulb, one end of which has been broken, and allowing an easy and safe implementation so as to allow a compact presentation for sale. in pharmacies.
  • the device of the invention must be very inexpensive, since it is intended to be discarded after use.
  • a device for the use of a breakable bulb of spray product comprising a spray pump with manual actuation, is characterized in that it is constituted by an element of generally tubular shape at one end of which the spray pump is tightly fixed with a hollow external actuating rod and a suction tube extending inside the tubular element substantially over its entire length, and the other end of the element tubular is open to form a tubular housing for receiving the bulb, the tubular element further comprising means for ensuring a sealed connection with the opening of the bulb, and means for retaining the bulb in its housing.
  • the single figure of the attached drawing shows in schematic axial section an example of a device according to the invention.
  • the device comprises a manual spray pump 1.
  • a manual spray pump 1 Such a pump is well known; there are many types on the market.
  • the interior is not shown since it is a conventional pump.
  • the hollow outlet valve stem 2 forms the actuating member of the pump. It is designed to receive a push button not shown, provided with a spraying member (nozzle).
  • the pump has internally a spring recalling the valve 2 to the outside.
  • a suction tube 3 or dip tube On the suction side of the pump is provided a suction tube 3 or dip tube.
  • the device comprises a tubular element 5.
  • the pump 1 is fixed to one end 4 of the tube in a completely conventional manner.
  • the tube 5 comprises in particular an external bead 8 at this end, allowing the pump 1 to be fixed by means of a capsule 9 with or without the interposition of a seal 11 (or other sealing means).
  • the shape of the tube makes it possible to simply, easily and effectively fix an open breakable bulb 6.
  • the dip tube 3 once introduced extends substantially to the bottom of the bulb 6, since in practice it extends to the open end of the tubular element.
  • the tube 5 has at the end opposite the pump at least one slot 12, and an inner heel 13.
  • the heel ensures the elastic maintenance of the bulb 6 in the tube 5, the slots allowing the spacing of the tube for the passage of the narrowing due to the heel 13.
  • a sealing lip 15 is provided internally at an intermediate location in the tube. It has a double purpose: to ensure watertightness, and to maintain the bulb in position, in cooperation with the heel 13. It also allows a certain adaptation to the unevenness of height of the bulbs.
  • the bulb and the pump can be packaged together in a box.
  • the user breaks the breakable bulb and engages it in the open part of the device.
  • the assembly can be used as a hand sprayer and the product used properly.
  • the device can be returned without inconvenience.
  • the product can of course be expelled only if the free end of the dip tube 3 is within the liquid.
  • the tubular element 5 can advantageously be made of molded plastic, but it is obvious that other embodiments are possible.
