Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a removable dispensing valve adaptable to the neck of a liquid container. It relates more particularly, but not exclusively, to a plugging and racking system of this type, intended to equip the containers composed of a rigid overpack and of a bag made of a flexible material, for example plastic, containing the liquid.
  • the present invention aims to remedy this drawback by proposing a dispensing tap which is less expensive and more reliable than those of the known technique, because it consists only of two parts which are movable relative to one another, between which is interposed an elastic return member, which does not come into contact with the dispensed liquid and, therefore, can be made of a non-food grade material.
  • the invention also aims to provide a dispensing valve of this type which can be easily locked in the liquid withdrawal position, as well as in the closed position.
  • the invention finally relates to such a dispensing tap which, given its limited cost, can constitute a disposable member after use.
  • the subject of the invention is a removable dispensing tap for a liquid container, comprising a fixed element, capable of being made integral with a conduit forming a neck of said container by communicating with the interior of said neck, and a mobile element. relative to said fixed element, this mobile element comprising a tubular member mounted to slide inside a tubular part of corresponding diameter of said fixed element, so that said neck, said tubular part and said tubular member are in permanent communication, the side wall of said tubular part comprising an evacuation orifice, while the side wall of said tubular member has an opening capable of being brought into communication with said evacuation orifice for sliding of said movable element inside said fixed element,
  • this dispensing tap being characterized in that it comprises a return spring of said movable element in the position where ladi the opening is not in communication with said discharge orifice, said return spring being disposed outside of the tubular member of said movable member and outside of the tubular part of said fixed member, concentric with these members , which separate it tightly from the liquid to
  • the return spring may be a simple plastic spring interposed between the ends of the fixed element and the mobile element furthest from the neck. It will therefore suffice to exert pressure with a finger on the end of the movable element, against the return spring, to move this element and allow the liquid to exit through the discharge orifice, without this liquid comes into contact with the spring.
  • This may, therefore, be made of a non-food grade material, therefore very inexpensive.
  • the longest branch of the L will be arranged in the direction of movement of the mobile element, while the shortest branch will be arranged radially with respect to the mobile element or the fixed element, so that it can lock the lug by causing a simple rotation of the movable element relative to the fixed element.
  • seals will be provided between the fixed and mobile elements, in particular downstream and upstream of the dispensing orifice of the fixed element and of the opening of the mobile element intended to be brought into communication with this dispensing orifice.
  • the dispensing valve can be equipped, at the end by which it enters into communication with the container, with a flexible membrane shutter, which should be drilled during the first distribution of liquid.
  • this role to be devolved to the movable element of the tap, by giving at its end closest to said further a cutting or blunt profile, making it possible to perforate said plastic film using this end by sliding of the movable element inside the fixed element.
  • the fixed element can be made integral with the neck by engaging a tubular portion of this element in the neck, and by joining them by clipping, if these parts are made of an elastically deformable material such as a plastic material. It could possibly be an integral part of this bottleneck.
  • the container containing the liquid a flexible addition for example, is not shown in the drawings, where we only see the neck 1 of this container, externally threaded.
  • the dispensing valve according to the invention comprises two elements, one 3, integral with the neck 1 and fixed in position relative to the latter, the other 4, movable in translation and in rotation relative to the previous one. These parts are made of plastic.
  • the fixed element 3 comprises two concentric tubular parts 5 and 6 joined by an annular portion 7.
  • the part 5, of external diameter equal to the internal diameter of the neck 1 is engaged in the latter and its mouth, facing the container, is closed, before the first use of the tap, by a flexible waterproof membrane 2.
  • Part 5 of the fixed element 3 is locked in position on the neck 1 by clipping the end 1 a of the neck, with a slightly smaller internal diameter , in an external throat corresponding 5 a of part 5.
  • the element 4 comprises essentially a pipe 8 slidably mounted within the portion 6 and which only is ourverte the front end 8a, which protrudes outside the portion 6, within the part 5
  • the orifice of this end 8 a is situated in a plane arranged obliquely with respect to the axis of the neck, so that the end 8 a can perforate the membrane 2.
  • the opposite end of the element 4 comprises, outside, a skirt 9, concentric with part 8 and facing the neck 1
  • This skirt 9 is slidably mounted on an external skirt 10 concentric with part 6 of the fixed element 3, of which it is integral, and directed in the opposite direction of the skirt 9.
  • a return spring 11 which, by its position, is never in contact with the liquid and which can therefore be made of any material of non-food quality.
  • the side wall of the conduit 8 is pierced with an opening 12, while the part 6 of the fixed element comprises a side tube 13 for discharging the liquid.
  • the opening 12 is arranged in such a way, relative to the evacuation tube 13, that by simply exerting a push on the external end of the element 4, against the spring 11, this opening can be brought in accordance with the inlet of said tube 13 and thus allow the evacuation of the liquid from the container through this tube.
  • seals such as 14 are provided between the tubular parts 6 and 8 of the fixed and movable elements, downstream and upstream of the inlet of the tube 13 and the opening 12.
  • the duct 8 In order to be able to immobilize the movable element in the liquid dispensing position, by ceasing to exert pressure at the free end of the movable element 4, the duct 8 has an L-shaped cutout 15 in which is engaged a lug 16 protruding from the inner wall of the tube 6.
  • the large branch of the L is arranged parallel to the axis of the conduit 8, while the small branch is distant from the container.
  • the invention is not limited to the embodiment which has just been described and includes all the technical equivalents.
  • the end 8a of the conduit 8 could have any other shape allowing it to pierce the membrane 2.
  • the cutout 15 of the duct 8 may be replaced by a cutting portion 6 or a recess the internal wall of this part, the associated lug then projecting from the external face of the duct 8.
  • the cutout 15 can also be given a shape different from an L. It can also be provided, if necessary, on the duct 8 , two or more exhaust pipes such as 13.
  • the neck 1 and the fixed element 3 can constitute one and the same integral part of the container, the membrane 2 closing, in this case, the mouth of the neck in concordance with the container discharge opening.
