Definitions

  • the invention relates to a metering device for the metered dispensing of a free-flowing product from a storage container through a mouth that turns into a low position when the container is turned, which is defined between the free end of a sliding wall that is inclined with respect to the longitudinal axis of the container and a baffle and in which Outlet channel of the metering part connects, the sliding wall together with an extension wall forming a V-shaped web at its free end, the baffle wall is composed of a cover wall which is approximately perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the container and an end wall which is inclined and essentially parallel to the sliding wall and the outlet channel opens out approximately perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the container.
  • a tilt dosing device of this type is known from US-A-3 584 771. This is essentially a container to which the dosing device is integrally formed. Such dispensers cannot be used, for example, if the product to be dispensed is usually delivered in plastic handle bottles.
  • the known metering construction according to US Pat. No. 3,221,951 tries to solve this problem by means of a separate closure attachment. However, this construction is not just suitable for dosing relatively small dosage amounts such as sugar, instant coffee or the like.
  • DE-A-31 20 234 describes a tilt dispenser for dispensing media from a storage container.
  • the metered output takes place the second time the device is turned through an outlet that turns low when it is turned.
  • the free end of the sliding wall extends up to a predetermined distance from the baffle.
  • the outlet is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the container.
  • the baffle has an extension which is guided parallel to the outlet behind the sliding wall.
  • Fine granules can be dosed with the known device, but dosing requires the package to be tilted or turned upside down twice. This not only makes dosing cumbersome, it also requires a device volume that is disproportionately large in relation to the dosing volume, since at least two chambers with the full dosing volume are required within the dosing device.
  • the considerable volume of equipment can either be arranged inside the storage container or designed as an attachment. In the former case, a lot of filling volume is lost, in the other case, the outer packaging required for shipping becomes expensive.
  • the known tilting dosing devices are used almost exclusively in the small quantity dosing range.
  • the tilting dosing principle had to be regarded as contrary to the system, because it required either a bulky and therefore uneconomical dosing head or a frequent and therefore unreasonable repetition of the dosing process necessary for the user.
  • the object of the invention is to create a compact tilting metering device with which the desired or predetermined total product quantity can be applied in the first metering process.
  • the dosing device should also be designed so that the powdery or free-flowing product is targeted without the risk of spilling, e.g. B. in a detergent dispenser of a washing machine.
  • the solution according to the invention consists in the configuration according to the main claim.
  • the dependent claims represent expedient developments of the invention.
  • the function is further improved if the sloping front wall extends from the cover wall to such an extent that it penetrates the imaginary radial plane through the free end of the extension wall.
  • the outlet channel itself is in the end a largely straight continuation of the gap formed between the free end of the V-shaped web and the end wall; the channel therefore has a flat, approximately rectangular cross section, at least on its inlet side.
  • it is advantageous to narrow the outlet channel from the sides in the direction of its outlet. In this context, it is advantageous to run out into a cylindrical outlet connector designed to fit a closure cap.
  • the metering device according to the invention advantageously also has a coupling piece for placement on the outlet opening of the storage container to be loaded in each case.
  • the coupling piece can be designed according to the requirements of the mouth of the storage container.
  • a locking option can also be integrated in the area between the metering device and the coupling piece if the actual metering device is rotatably mounted relative to the coupling piece about the longitudinal axis of the container and passages to be brought to cover by the relative rotation are provided in the ceiling of the coupling part and in the bottom of the device part.
  • Kippdosierers is that the V-shaped web is mounted displaceably approximately radially in relation to the container or device longitudinal center axis or approximately parallel to the device base in the direction of the outlet channel.
  • the tilting dispenser at hand only requires a single dosing room and not - as in known cases - two dosing rooms of approximately the same size.
  • a tilting metering device is thus created, the metering volume of which has to be adapted over a wide range to the respective requirements, for example the degree of hardness of the water available for washing powder.
  • the dosing device shown in Fig. 1 to 6 consists of a coupling piece or a screw cap 1 with the actual dosing device 2 fixed thereon by gluing, welding, snapping or the like.
  • the screw cap 1 has in its head side 3 a e.g. semicircular opening 4, which corresponds to a congruent opening 5 in the base plate of the metering device 2. If the metering device 2 and screw cap 1 can be rotated about the longitudinal axis A of the container, the storage container coupled to the screw cap 1 can be opened or closed by rotating the metering device 2 relative to the screw cap 1.
  • the actual metering device 2 has a metering chamber 7, which in the exemplary embodiment is limited by two mutually parallel side walls 8 and 9 (cf. FIG. 2), by a rear wall 10, by a V extending continuously from the side wall 8 to the side wall 9 -shaped web 11 and a cover wall 12 opposite the web 11 and closing the side and rear walls 8 to 10 on the device head with an adjoining end wall 13.
  • the latter starting from the cover wall 12, falls obliquely towards the base plate 6 and forms thus together with the web 11 an outlet channel 14 which extends over the entire chamber width.
  • the free space 15 located between the outlet channel 14 and the outlet or outlet connection 16 can be moved laterally by displacing the V-shaped web 11 in the direction towards the outlet channel 14 subsequent outlet nozzle 16 are used to enlarge the metering chamber 7 and is considered to be the outlet nozzle en 16 tapered outflow channel.
  • the outlet connector 16 can preferably take the form of a cylindrical extension which is suitable for attaching a sealing plug, not shown.
  • the outlet channel 14 or 16 is arranged at right angles to the central axis A.
  • the functionality of the tilting dosing device according to the invention is supported in that the end wall 13, starting from the top wall 12 of the dosing chamber 7, penetrates the imaginary radial plane 17 through the free end 18 of the extension wall 19 of the sliding wall 20. 7 and 8, an inventive feature of the dosing device is now shown.
  • the V-shaped web 11 between the parallel side walls 8 and 9 is slidably mounted in the radial direction to the outlet port 16 to enlarge or reduce the metering chamber 7. This enables the user, e.g. with washing powder concentrate, a simple adjustment of the dosing volume to the requirements e.g. to the different degrees of hardness of water.
  • the parallel walls 8 and 9 are provided with guide slots 21 which receive the attachments 22 of a slide plate 23.
  • the slide plate 23 serves to displace the V-shaped web 11 in the radial direction with respect to the central axis A. With the help of the extension pieces 22, the slide plate 23 can be actuated.
  • webs 24 preferably standing at right angles
