Definitions

  • the present utility model refers to a shaving foam dispenser and precisely to a dispenser to be applied to the usual shaving foam bottles.
  • the aim of the invention according to the present utility model is to eliminate the mentioned drawbacks by achieving a device to be used together with the foam bottle in order to distribute the foam on the face in the quantity which is practically required and furthermore with the advantages to avoid soiling the hands as it is always possible to use the device instead of the hands and in addition to effect simultaneously with the quite quick distri­bution of the foam on the face an efficient massage of the face skin, which helps in better distributing the foam and in keeping the skin safe from possible irritations, thus also allowing per­sons having delicate skin to shave against the lie of the hair in order to obtain a perfect shave without the troubles met by simple use of the bottle or by using the shaving-brush.
  • the foam dispenser according to the present utility model consists of a cap similar to the cap which is used up to now for being applied to the upper end of the shaving foam bottles and which is generally composed of a bottomless cylindrical ring provided, near the lower rim, with a circular inside projection suited, when assembling the cap on the upper end of said bottle, for hooking with the circular rim of the bottle cover, which cover is clinched to the bottle and houses in its central part a small movable pipe protruding from the bottle along its axis and which, when pressed on its top for retracting partially into the bottle, causes outlet, through its axial longitudinal hole, of the foam by the action of the inner pressure, said cylindrical ring being provided towards the other end with a disk integral with the wall only in a limi­ted portion and provided in the inside part of the cap with a small cylinder which base has a concave shape suited, when the disk is pressed towards the bottle, to go adhering to the walls of the free end of said small pipe without blocking up the inner hole and
  • connection part of the fork being so shaped to surround the small cylinder with the radial elements for one part of it so as to form such a space between the small cylinder and said connection part that by pressing the cap towards the bottle to control outlet of the foam, the latter, when getting out from the hole going through said connection part, gets into said space, i. e.
  • the hole passing through the connection part of the fork has such a direction in correspondence to its orifice that the axis of its terminal part does not meet the axis of rotation of the small cylinder but is at such a distance from it that the foam, when getting out from said orifice, goes, after having filled the said space, pushing the radial elements at a height from their base sufficient to cause automatic rotation of the small cylinder without requiring any ma­nual operation during the entire foam delivery.
  • the radial elements have a quincunx arrangement on the peripherical surface ⁇ of the small cylinder, that is in ranges parallel to the generating lines of said small cylinder, and equidistant, these elements being regularly staggered between one range and the other, so as to produce very uniform massage and distribution of the foam on the skin.
  • the foam dispenser is composed of a cap 1 and a dispensing mem­ ber 2.
  • the cap 1 is composed as the cap which is at present used to be applied on the upper end of a bottle 3 for shaving foam of 312 gr, that is it includes a cylindrical ring 4 which is formed of two parts having different outside diameters 5, 6, joint one to the other by the slope 7, while it has inside two parts having different diameters 8, 9 not corresponding to the outside ones, the lower part 9 with larger diameter being provided with an inner circular projection 10 such as to allow hooking of the cap to the bottle 3 and exactly to the connecting toroidal rim 11 of the bottle cover 12 to the cambered upper wall 13 of the same.
  • the ring 4 On the upper side the ring 4 is provided with a disk 14 which is fixed to the inner wall in the portion 8 only through the tab 15; on the lower surface 16 of the disk 14 a vertical small cylinder 17 is integral thereto and has a radial extension 18, which joins to the wall of the ring in the part 6 and extends slightly outwards the cap in the portion 19, the small cylinder 17 is provided with the cen­tral hole 20 which joins with a hole 21 which passes through the extension 18 and then the 19.
  • the lower wall 22 of the small cy­linder is concave in a conical way, i. e.
  • the dispensing member 2 is connected integrally in a practically rigid way to said cap.
  • the dispensing member is composed of a fork 26 composed of a connecting part 27 and of two supporting arms 28, 29 consisting of two rectangular shaped plates, said arms surround a movable rotating member 30.
  • the connection part 27 has frusto-pyramid shape and is integral, with the smaller base, with the extension 19 and with the outer wall of part 5 of cap 1, while the short sides of the larger base are integral with the two arms 28, 29 supporting the movable member 30.
  • Said member is composed of a cylinder 31 the longitudinal axis of which is perpendicular to the plates forming the two supporting arms, said arms being provided with holes 32, 33 in which the two freely rotating pins 34, 35 are housed, which are axially integral with the said cylinder 31, which has a soft rubber coa­ting 36 to which are integral n. 42 radial cylindrical elements 37, also in soft rubber; said radial elements 37 are quincunx ar­ranged, that is on n. 12 ranges among them parallel and equi­distant, four on one range and three on the next one, staggered to the previous ones.
  • a space 38 is delimited by said cylinder 31, by its radial elements 37, by the larger base 27m of the frusto-­pyramidal portion of the connecting element 27 and by the portion of the two arms 28, 29 near its connection and also by the exten­sions 39, 40 of the connection part 27.
  • connection part 27 is provided with a hole 41 which passes through it joining on the smaller base with the terminal part of the hole 21 of the extensions 18, 19, the axis of the hole 41 being slanted to the axis of the cylinder 31 in the plane of figure 1, so that when the disk 14 is pressed in order to cause the dispensing of foam, the latter, when getting out from the hole 41, goes filling the space 38 and then exerting a pressure in the direction of its own axis on the radial elements located in front so as to cause the rotation of the cylinder 31 around its axis so that the foam which comes out, after having filled the space 38, is transported by the radial ele­ments in their rotation so as to fill entirely the space between the said elements; when the cylinder has so rotated that all the spaces of the cylindrical crown including the radial elements are completely filled with foam, the user stops to press the disk 14 thus causing stopping of the delivery.
  • the sizing of the fork and of the movable member are so determined that in the said delivery operation the amount of foam delivered corresponds to the optimum amount for soaping of the face in order to obtain a complete sha­ving.
  • the user holds the bottle and brings the ends of the radial elements 37 into contact with the face skin and by effecting a traverse movement perpendicular to the small cylinder axis causes, by exerting a slight pressure against the skin, rotation of the small cylinder and hence a uni­form application of the foam on the skin as well as an efficient massage of the same which facilitates also the contact of the foam with the hairs base, which helps a good shaving.
  • the dispenser can be easily washed from foam residues by putting it, still holding the bottle, under the water tap so that the water runs over the radial elements and so causes the small cylinder to rotatate, obtaining a perfect washing of all parts of the dispenser.
