Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Herstellen und Versprühen einer aus wenigstens zwei Komponenten, zum Beispiel Flüssigkeiten, und einem Treibgas bestehenden Mischung, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a device for producing and spraying a mixture consisting of at least two components, for example liquids, and a propellant gas, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Eine derartige Vorrichtung ist aus der EP-A-79 983 bekannt (Fig. 4a ibs 4f). Dort ist jedoch nicht sicher gewährleistet, daß die Fluidverbindung zwischen dem Innenraum des inneren Behälters und dem Innenraum des äußeren Behälters nach Öffnen des inneren Behälters in der vorbestimmten Weise aufrechterhalten bleibt.Such a device is known from EP-A-79 983 (Fig. 4a ibs 4f). There, however, there is no guarantee that the fluid connection between the interior of the inner container and the interior of the outer container will be maintained in the predetermined manner after the inner container has been opened.

Dementsprechend liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung der im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1 genannten Art zu schaffen, die nicht nur konstruktiv einfach, sondern darüber hinaus äußerst funktionssicher ist, bei der insbesondere eine definierte Fluidverbindung zwischen dem inneren und äußeren Behälter hergestellt und aufrechterhalten werden kann, so daß eine gute Vermischung der Komponenten gewährleistet ist.Accordingly, the present invention has for its object to provide a device of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1, which is not only structurally simple, but is also extremely reliable, in particular in which a defined fluid connection between the inner and outer container is made and maintained can be, so that a good mixing of the components is guaranteed.

Diese Aufgabe wird in denkbar einfacher Weise durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Patentanspruches 1 gelöst. Durch die der Öffnung des inneren Behälters zugeordneten Mittel zur Fixierung der eingedrückten Verschlußmembran ist gewährleistet, daß die vorgegebene Fluidverbindung zwischen dem inneren und äußeren Behälter nach Öffnung des inneren Behälters erhalten bleibt. Die genannten Mittel zur Fixierung der Verschlußmembran sind vorzugsweise in Form von in der Öffnung des inneren Behälters angeordneten Halterippen, -nocken oder dergleichen ausgebildet. Vorzugsweise dient der am äußeren Behälter angeordnete Ventilkörper des Abgabeventils zugleich als Verschluß des inneren Behälters, wobei der Öffnungsrand des inneren Behälters fluiddicht am Ventilkörper anliegt. Die Verschlußmembran ist dann integraler Bestandteil des Ventilkörpers. Diese Konstruktion zeichnet sich durch ein Minimum an Bauteilen aus, insbesondere im Vergleich zum Beispiel zu der Vorrichtung nach der EP-A-62 817.This object is achieved in a very simple manner by the characterizing features of claim 1. The means associated with the opening of the inner container for fixing the pressed-in closure membrane ensures that the predetermined fluid connection between the inner and outer containers is maintained after the inner container has been opened. Said means for fixing the closure membrane are preferably designed in the form of retaining ribs, cams or the like arranged in the opening of the inner container. Preferably, the valve body of the dispensing valve arranged on the outer container also serves as a closure of the inner container, the opening edge of the inner container abutting the valve body in a fluid-tight manner. The sealing membrane is then an integral part of the valve body. This construction is characterized by a minimum of components, in particular in comparison to, for example, the device according to EP-A-62 817.

Von besonderer Bedeutung sind noch die Maßnahmen nach den Patentansprüchen 3, 4 sowie 9 bis 11, durch die zum einen eine Befüllung des inneren Behälters im bereits montierten Zustand innerhalb des äußeren Behälters möglich ist. Andererseits ist nach Befüllung des inneren Behälters eine Fluidabdichtung zwischen dem Innenraum des inneren Behälters und dem Innenraum des äußeren Behälters sichergestellt. Vor allem eignen sich diese Maßnahmen zum Befüllen des inneren Behälters mit dem Treibmittel.Of particular importance are the measures according to claims 3, 4 and 9 to 11, which on the one hand make it possible to fill the inner container in the already assembled state inside the outer container. On the other hand, after filling the inner container, a fluid seal is ensured between the interior of the inner container and the interior of the outer container. These measures are particularly suitable for filling the inner container with the propellant.

Die Vorrichtung bzw. der Zweikammerbehälter nach Fig. 1 umfaßt einen äußeren Standard-Aerosolbehälter 10 mit einem Abgabeventil 14 das in üblicher Weise in einem am Öffnungsrand 15 des äußeren Behälters 10 dicht befestigten Deckel 17 gefaßt ist sowie einen inneren Behälter 12, der aus einem ebenso korrosionsbeständigen Material besteht wie der äußere Behälter 10. Der äußere Behälter 10 enthält eine Füllgutkomponente A, der innere Behälter 12 eine Füllgutkomponente B sowie ein geeignetes Treibmittel T.The device or the two-chamber container according to FIG. 1 comprises an outer standard aerosol container 10 with a dispensing valve 14 which is conventionally contained in a lid 17 which is tightly fastened to the opening edge 15 of the outer container 10, and an inner container 12 which also consists of a corrosion-resistant material stands like the outer container 10. The outer container 10 contains a product component A, the inner container 12 contains a product component B and a suitable propellant T.

Das im Deckel 17 befestigte Abgabeventil 14 besteht aus einem Ventilkörper 18 und einem in diesem axial einwärts bewegbar gelagerten Betätigungs-und Abgaberöhrchen 30, durch welches die Mischung aus den Behältern 10, 12 entnehmbar ist. Das Abgaberöhrchen 30 ist noch mit einer Kappe 39 verschlossen. Das Abgaberöhrchen 30 ist entgegen der Wirkung einer Schraubenfeder 46 axial einwärts bewegbar, wobei die Abstützung der Schraubenfeder 46 am Ventilkörper 18 einerseits und an einer am Abgaberöhrchen 30 angeformten Ringschulter 48 andererseits erfolgt. Der Ventilkörper 18 ist im Deckel 17 form-und kraftschlüssig verankert. Der innere Behälter 12 ist nach Art einer Flasche mit verjüngtem Flaschenhals 19 ausgebildet. Der Verschluß 41 des inneren Behälters, wie die Figuren 2 bis 5 sehr deutlich zeigen, als Verschlußhaube ausgebildet, die über den Öffnungsrand 24 des Flaschenhalses 19 gestülpt ist. Die Fluidabdichtung zwischen dem Innenraum des inneren Behälters und dem Innenraum des äußeren Behälters erfolgt durch eine zwischen dem Öffnungsrand 24 und der Verschlußhaube 4 angeordnete Ringdichtung 34, deren zusätzliche Funktion anhand der Figuren 4 und 5 - noch näher erläutert wird. Die Verschlußhaube 41 ist zwischen dem Öffnungsrand 24 des inneren Behälters 12 bzw. der Ringdichtung 34 und dem Ventilkörper-18 des Abgabeventils 14 eingeklemmt, wobei die Klemmwirkung durch ein auf den Boden des inneren Behälters 12 wirkendes elastisches Element erzielt wird, das zugleich zur unteren Abstützung und Zentrierung des inneren Behälters 12 innerhalb des äußeren Behälters 10 dient. Der Anpreßdruck dieses elastischen Elements 20 ist so groß, daß zwischen der Verschlußhaube 41 und dem Öffnungsrand 24 des inneren Behälters 12 unter Einschluß der Ringdichtung 34 eine sichere Abdichtung gegenüber dem Füllraum des äußeren Behälters 10 erhalten wird.The dispensing valve 14 fastened in the cover 17 consists of a valve body 18 and an actuating and dispensing tube 30, which is axially movable in this, through which the mixture can be removed from the containers 10, 12. The delivery tube 30 is still closed with a cap 39. The dispensing tube 30 can be moved axially inward against the action of a helical spring 46, the helical spring 46 being supported on the valve body 18 on the one hand and on an annular shoulder 48 formed on the dispensing tube 30 on the other hand. The valve body 18 is anchored in the cover 17 in a positive and non-positive manner. The inner container 12 is designed in the manner of a bottle with a tapered bottle neck 19. The closure 41 of the inner container, as shown very clearly in FIGS. 2 to 5, is designed as a closure hood which is placed over the opening edge 24 of the bottle neck 19. The fluid seal between the interior of the inner container and the interior of the outer container takes place by means of an annular seal 34 arranged between the opening edge 24 and the closure hood 4, the additional function of which is explained in more detail with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. The closure cap 41 is clamped between the opening edge 24 of the inner container 12 or the ring seal 34 and the valve body 18 of the dispensing valve 14, the clamping effect being achieved by an elastic element acting on the bottom of the inner container 12, which at the same time provides lower support and centering the inner container 12 within the outer container 10. The contact pressure of this elastic element 20 is so great that a secure seal with respect to the filling space of the outer container 10 is obtained between the closure cap 41 and the opening edge 24 of the inner container 12, including the ring seal 34.

Bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist das elastische Element 20 durch eine den Bodenbereich des inneren Behälters 12 umfassende topfartige Halterung mit sich elastisch gegenüber Seiten-und Bodenwand des äußeren Behälters 10 abstützenden Füßen 42 gebildet. Die topfartige Halterung dient zugleich zur Fixierung des inneren Behälters 12 innerhalb des äußeren Behälters 10 und zur elastischen Andrückung gegen den Verschluß 41 bzw. Ventilkörper 18 des Abgabeventils 14. Zur Sicherung der Verschlußhaube 41 am Öffnungsrand 24 des inneren Behälters 12 bzw. an dessen Flaschenhals 19 während der Montage ist der untere Rand der Verschlußhaube 41 mit nach innen vorstehenden Rastnocken bzw. einem nach innen vorstehenden Rastwulst 23 versehen, die bzw. der den Öffnungsrand 24 hintergreifen (siehe Figuren 2 bis 5). Die eigentliche Fixierung der Verschlußhaube 41 im befüllten Zustand der beiden Behälter erfolgt jedoch -wie oben dargelegt -durch die Einklemmung zwischen dem Öffnungsrand 24 des inneren Behälters 12 und dem Ventilkörper 18 des Abgabeventiles 14.In the exemplary embodiment shown, the elastic element 20 is formed by a pot-like holder comprising the bottom region of the inner container 12 with feet 42 which are elastically supported with respect to the side and bottom walls of the outer container 10. The pot-like holder also serves to fix the inner container 12 within the outer container 10 and to press it elastically against the closure 41 or valve body 18 of the dispensing valve 14. To secure the closure hood 41 at the opening edge 24 of the inner container 12 or at the bottle neck 19 thereof during assembly, the lower edge of the closure hood 41 is provided with inwardly projecting latching cams or an inwardly projecting latching bead 23 which engage behind the opening edge 24 (see FIGS. 2 to 5). However, the actual fixing of the closure hood 41 in the filled state of the two containers takes place — as explained above — by the clamping between the opening edge 24 of the inner container 12 and the valve body 18 of the dispensing valve 14.

Die elastische Andrückung des inneren Behälters 12 bzw. dessen Öffnungsrandes 24 gegen die Verschlußhaube 41 und damit gegen den Ventilkörper des Abgabeventils 14 kann auch durch ein zwischen dem Boden 38 des äußeren Behälters 10 und dem Boden 40 des inneren Behälters 12 wirksames Federelement, z. B. Schraubenfeder, erfolgen.The elastic pressure of the inner container 12 or the opening edge 24 against the closure cap 41 and thus against the valve body of the dispensing valve 14 can also by an effective between the bottom 38 of the outer container 10 and the bottom 40 of the inner container 12 spring element, for. B. coil spring.

Vor Ingebrauchnahme der Vorrichtung befindet sich das Abgaberöhrchen 30 in der in Figur 1 bzw. 2 gezeigten Stellung. Zum Vermischen der beiden Füllgutkomponenten A und B wird das Abgaberöhrchen 30 des Abgabeventils 14 axial einwärts gedrückt und eine hier kappenartig ausgebildete Verschlußmembran 28 unter Aufbrechen einer ringförmigen Sollbruchstelle 43 in einen zentralen Durchgang geschoben, der bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel die Komponenten-Austrittsöffnung 26 des inneren Behälters 12 definiert und integraler Bestandteil der Verschlußhaube 41 ist. Der aufgebrochene bzw. geöffnete Zustand des inneren Behälters 12 ist in Figur 3 dargestellt. Die Verschlußmembran 28 ist, wie die Figuren 2 bis 5 gut erkennen lassen, integraler Bestandteil der Verschlußhaube 41 und mit dieser über eine Sollbruchstelle in Form einer ringförmigen Schwachstelle 43 verbunden. Die in die Öffnung 26 mittels des Abgaberöhrchens 30 geschobene bzw. gedrückte Verschlußmembran 28 wird in dieser Öffnung durch drei gleichmäßig über den Umfang verteilt angeordnete Längsrippen 45 gehalten unter Ausbildung einer definierten Fluidverbindung zwischen dem Innenraum des inneren Behälters und dem Innenraum des äußeren Behälters (Pfeil 27 in Figur 3). An den die Behälter-Austrittsöffnung 26 definierenden Durchgang ist im übrigen ein herkömmliches Steigröhrchen 50 angeschlossen. Zum Zwecke des Aufbrechens der Verschlußhaube 41, d. h. zum Eindrücken der Verschlußmembran 28, ist der dieser zugewandte untere Betätigungsteil 16 des Abgaberöhrchens 30 stempelartig ausgebildet.Before the device is put into use, the delivery tube 30 is in the position shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. To mix the two filling components A and B, the dispensing tube 30 of the dispensing valve 14 is pressed axially inward and a closure membrane 28 designed here in the form of a cap is pushed into a central passage, breaking open an annular predetermined breaking point 43, which, in the exemplary embodiment shown, the component outlet opening 26 of the inner container 12 defines and is an integral part of the closure cap 41. The broken or opened state of the inner container 12 is shown in Figure 3. The closure membrane 28, as can be clearly seen in FIGS. 2 to 5, is an integral part of the closure hood 41 and is connected to it via a predetermined breaking point in the form of an annular weak point 43. The closure membrane 28 pushed or pressed into the opening 26 by means of the delivery tube 30 is held in this opening by three longitudinal ribs 45 which are evenly distributed over the circumference, forming a defined fluid connection between the interior of the inner container and the interior of the outer container (arrow 27 in Figure 3). A conventional riser tube 50 is connected to the passage defining the container outlet opening 26. For the purpose of breaking open the closure cap 41, i. H. to press in the closure membrane 28, the lower actuating part 16 of the delivery tube 30 facing it is designed in the form of a stamp.

Anhand der Figuren 4 und 5 soll die Doppelfunktion der Ringdichtung 34 näher erläutert werden. Die Ringdichtung 34 wirkt demnach zugleich als Rückschlagventil. Zur Befüllung des inneren Behälters 12 mit Treibgas im bereits montierten Zustand desselben (Pfeil 21 in Figur 4) weist die Verschlußhaube 41 Öffnungen 58 auf, die im Bereich eines Ringspaltes 13 zwischen dem zentralen, die Behälteröffnung 26 definierenden Durchgang und dem Flaschenhals 19 des inneren Behälters 12 liegen. Die Verschlußstellung der Ringdichtung 34 ist in Figur 5 dargestellt. Das sich im Inneren des inneren Behälters 12 befindliche Treibgas drückt die Ringdichtung 34 nach oben derart, daß die Durchgänge 58 in der Verschlußhaube 41 verschlossen sind. Die Druckrichtung des Treibgases T ist in Figur 5 mit den Pfeilen 31 gekennzeichnet. Beim Befüllen des inneren Behälters 12 mit Treibgas (Pfeil 21 in Figur 4) durch die Durchgänge 58 hindurch wird die Ringdichtung 34 nach innen in den Fingspalt 13 gedrückt unter Ausbildung einer Fluidverbindung zwischen den Durchgängen 58 und dem Ringspalt 13. Die Ringdichtung 34 hat demnach eine Doppelfunktion. Statt der Ringdichtung 34 könnten auch Kugel-Rückschlagventile oder Rückschlagmembranen in den Durchgängen 58 angeordnet sein. Die in den Figuren 4 und 5 dargestellte Ausführungsform mit der Ringdichtung 34 ist jedoch vom konstruktiven Aufwand die denkbar einfachste Lösung.The double function of the ring seal 34 will be explained in more detail with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. The ring seal 34 thus also acts as a check valve. In order to fill the inner container 12 with propellant gas in the already assembled state (arrow 21 in FIG. 4), the closure hood 41 has openings 58 which are in the region of an annular gap 13 between the central passage defining the container opening 26 and the bottle neck 19 of the inner container 12 lie. The closed position of the ring seal 34 is shown in Figure 5. The propellant gas located inside the inner container 12 presses the ring seal 34 upward in such a way that the passages 58 in the closure hood 41 are closed. The direction of pressure of the propellant gas T is identified by the arrows 31 in FIG. When the inner container 12 is filled with propellant gas (arrow 21 in FIG. 4) through the passages 58, the ring seal 34 is pressed inward into the finger gap 13 with the formation of a fluid connection between the passages 58 and the ring gap 13. The ring seal 34 accordingly has a Dual function. Instead of the ring seal 34, ball check valves or check membranes could also be arranged in the passages 58. The embodiment shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 with the ring seal 34 is the simplest possible solution in terms of design effort.

Der Verschluß 41 gemäß den Fig. 1-5 könnte auch als integraler Bestandteil des Venilkörpers 18 ausgebildet sein.The closure 41 according to FIGS. 1-5 could also be formed as an integral part of the Venilkörper 18.

Bei der Ausführungsform nach den Fig. 6 bis 8 weist der Verschluß 41 des inneren Behälters 12 zum Zwecke des Befüllens mit Treibgas (Pfeile 21) desselben drei gleichmäßig über den Umfang verteilt angeordnete äußere Längsnuten 51, 53 und 55 auf, die sich jeweils nahezu über die gesamte Länge des im fertig montierten bzw. nach Befüllung verschlossenen Zustand (siehe Fig. 7) des inneren Behälters 12 in diesen ragenden Verschlußabschnitts 47 erstrecken. Die Befüllung des inneren Behälters 12 erfolgt wie nachstehend: Zuerst wird in den inneren Behälter .12 die flüssige Komponente B eingefüllt. Anschließend wird der Verschluß 41 entsprechend Fig. 6 in die nach Art eines Flaschenhalses 19 ausgebildete Öffnung des inneren Behälters 12 gesteckt, und zwar so, daß durch die Längsnuten 51, 53 und 55 eine Fluidverbindung zwischen dem Innenraum des inneren Behälters und der äußeren Umgebung sichergestellt ist. Dann wird mittels eines Füllkopfes flüssiges Treibmittel durch die Längsnuten 51, 53, 55 hindurch in den Innenraum des inneren Behälters 12 eingefüllt (Pfeile 21). Nach beendeter Füllung wird der Verschluß 41 durch den Füllkopf ganz in die Öffnung des inneren Behälters 12 entsprechend Fig. 7 geschoben bzw. gedrückt unter elastischer Verformung von drei am Außenumfang des Verschlußabschnitts 47 gleichmäßig über diesen verteilt und jeweils zwischen zwei Längsnuten 51, 53 bzw. 53, 55 bzw. 55, 51 angeordneten Längsrippen 33, 35, 37, durch die der Verschluß 41 in der Behälteröffnung unter Verschließen der Längsnuten 51, 53, 55 fluidabdichtend gehalten ist. Die Länge 29 der Rippen 33, 35, 37 entspricht etwa der halben Länge des in den inneren Behälter 12 ragenden Abschnitts 47 des Verschlusses 41. Die Ringdichtung 34 kommt im verschlossenen Zustand des inneren Behälters 12 mit dem Öffnungsrand 44 desselben einerseits und mit einer am Verschluß 41 ange ordneten Ringschulter 11 andererseits in fluiddichte Anlage (siehe Fig. 7), wobei die Ringschulter 11 an der der Ringdichtung 34 zugewandten Seite eine umlaufende Anpressrippe 49 aufweist, die eine absolute Dichtigkeit auch bei höheren Drücken im Innern des inneren Behälters gewährleistet.In the embodiment according to FIGS. 6 to 8, the closure 41 of the inner container 12 for the purpose of filling it with propellant gas (arrows 21) has three outer longitudinal grooves 51, 53 and 55 arranged uniformly distributed over the circumference, each of which almost overlaps the entire length of the fully assembled or closed state after filling (see FIG. 7) of the inner container 12 extends into this projecting closure section 47. The inner container 12 is filled as follows: First, the liquid component B is filled into the inner container .12. 6 is inserted into the opening of the inner container 12 designed in the manner of a bottle neck 19, in such a way that the longitudinal grooves 51, 53 and 55 ensure a fluid connection between the interior of the inner container and the external environment is. Then liquid propellant is filled into the interior of the inner container 12 through the longitudinal grooves 51, 53, 55 by means of a filling head (arrows 21). After the filling has been completed, the closure 41 is pushed or pressed completely into the opening of the inner container 12 according to FIG. 7 by the filling head, with elastic deformation of three on the outer circumference of the closure section 47 being evenly distributed over the latter and each between two longitudinal grooves 51, 53 or 53, 55 and 55, 51 arranged longitudinal ribs 33, 35, 37, through which the closure 41 is held in a fluid-sealing manner in the container opening while closing the longitudinal grooves 51, 53, 55. The length 29 of the ribs 33, 35, 37 corresponds approximately to half the length of the section 47 of the closure 41 projecting into the inner container 12. The ring seal 34 comes in the closed state of the inner container 12 with the opening edge 44 on the one hand and with one on the closure 41 arranged ring shoulder 11 on the other hand in a fluid-tight system (see Fig. 7), the ring shoulder 11 on the side facing the ring seal 34 has a circumferential pressure rib 49 which ensures absolute tightness even at higher pressures inside the inner container.

Die Längsrippen 6 sollen den Verschluß 41 nur so lange sicher in der Öffnung des inneren Behälters 12 fluidabdichtend halten, bis der innere Behälter 12 in den in den Fig. 6 bis 8 nicht dargestellten äußeren Behälter eingeführt und in diesem fixiert ist. Eine dauerhafte Fluidabdichtung zwischen dem Innenraum des inneren Behälters und dem Innenraum des äußeren Behälters ist nur durch die Einklemmung des Verschlusses 41 zwischen dem Öffnungsrand 24 des inneren Behälters 12 und dem Ventilkörper des Abgabeventils sichergestellt.The longitudinal ribs 6 are intended to hold the closure 41 in a fluid-sealing manner only in the opening of the inner container 12 until the inner container 12 is inserted into the outer container (not shown in FIGS. 6 to 8) and is fixed therein. A permanent fluid seal between the interior of the inner container and the interior of the outer container is only ensured by clamping the closure 41 between the opening edge 24 of the inner container 1 2 and the valve body of the dispensing valve.

Wie Fig. 6 erkennen läßt, erstrecken sich die 3 Längsrippen 33, 35 und 37 jeweils ausgehend von der Ringschulter 11 nach unten in Richtung zum freien Ende des in die Behälteröffnung ragenden Verschlußabschnitts 47 hin, wobei -wie dargelegt - die Längserstreckung 29 der Rippen 33, 35, 37 etwa der halben Länge des in die Behälteröffnung bzw. den inneren Behälter 12 hineinragenden Verschlußabschnitts 47 entspricht.As can be seen in FIG. 6, the 3 longitudinal ribs 33, 35 and 37 each extend downward from the annular shoulder 11 in the direction of the free end of the closure section 47 projecting into the container opening, the longitudinal extent 29 of the ribs 33, as shown , 35, 37 corresponds approximately to half the length of the closure section 47 projecting into the container opening or the inner container 12.

Die kappenartige Verschlußmembran 28 sowie die Verbindung derselben mit dem übrigen Verschlußkörper über die Ring-Sollbruchstelle 43 und die Membran-Fixierrippen 45 entsprechen der Ausführungsform nach den Fig. 1 bis 5. Diesbezüglich wird auf die dortigen Ausführungen verwiesen.The cap-like closure membrane 28 and the connection thereof with the rest of the closure body via the predetermined breaking point 43 and the membrane fixing ribs 45 correspond to the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 5. In this regard, reference is made to the explanations given there.

Die Behälter-Austrittsöffnung wird auch bei der . Ausführungsform nach den Fig. 6 bis 8 durch den axialen Durchgang 26 des Verschlußkörpers 41 gebildet. In diesem ist ähnlich wie bei den vorangehend beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispielen das Steigröhrchen 50 unter Preßsitz fixiert.The container outlet opening is also at the . Embodiment according to FIGS. 6 to 8 formed by the axial passage 26 of the closure body 41.
