Definitions

  • the most convenient, when possible, is to distribute the latter into two components, one of which will be liquid and may in particular comprise a solvent, the other then being able to be present in various forms, if necessary in solid phase but often dispersed, that is to say in powder.
  • Patent US-A-3608782 thus proposes to place the two components in two flexible tubes enclosed in a housing having two twin compartments for external pressurization, the first of which alone at the start is filled with a carrier gas.
  • the gates are supposed to close when the head is removed.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a packaging suitable for storage and transport and then for mixing the components of evolving products, and for distributing the latter, this packaging. allowing in particular to present in a convenient form drugs with extemporaneous preparation.
  • the packaging in question will essentially consist of a set of two rigid containers closed by "aerosol" valves and a connection bridge capable of rigidly and sealingly connecting their two nozzles.
  • One of the receptacles will contain, in a liquid medium, under a sufficiently high internal gas pressure, the first component, dissolved for example with the carrier gas; the other will contain the second component, under a low internal gas pressure of an inert gas, if necessary under a certain vacuum.
  • the bridge will constitute a "three-way" tap, one for entry to the first container, opened by the movable member of this tap during transfer but then neutralized, the second for the second container, permanent subject to opening of the valve thereof, the third outlet to the outside, opened by the movable member during the sole distribution of the final product.
  • the bridge will allow first to put the two containers in communication by pressing simultaneously on the two valves which will cause the transfer of the first mixed component part of the carrier gas to the second container with stirring until the pressures are equalized; then, opening a way to the outside, we will be able, if necessary after a certain waiting time or even storage, to expel from this container, according to its normal operating mode, the product of mixing or reaction obtained, to allow end use.
  • the bridge shown in Figure 1 has the structure of a simple three-way stopcock: its body 1 forms a plug carrying two twin mouths 2 a and 2 b whose juxtaposed channels 3 a and 3 b have their axes parallel. Its bore receives a key 4 which carries, schematically shown, a spray nozzle 5; here, the key is through and it is its operating button 6 opposite the screwing of the nozzle which serves to retain it.
  • each of the mouths 2 a and 2 b fit on the standardized nozzle of the valves 7 a and 7 b , with intake tube, of two aerosol bottles 8 a and 8 b : the bottle 8 a contains the first component and its carrier gas; the bottle 8b contains the second component. So that the bottoms of these bottles can rest on the same flat support despite their difference in height, linked to the fact that the first has a lower capacity here, a different length has been given to the two nozzles.
  • the key 4 has a longitudinal transfer groove 10 a and a distribution channel 10 b which opens out through a lateral orifice on another generator; one, in the position shown in the figure, connects the internal orifices of the channels of the two mouths 2 a and 2 b ; if one turns the key by a sufficient angle, it is the other which in turn leads to the only orifice of the mouth 2 b .
  • two stops or two cam locking stops for example at 6 a between the skirt of the operating button and the body of the plug.
  • the body 1 serves as a pusher and the operator, by pushing it towards the bottles, causes the two valves to open together: firstly, the key 4 being in the position shown, the carrier gas transfers most of it from the contents of the bottle 8 a to the bottle 8 b through the groove 10 a ; after reversing the position of the key, a new pressure on the contrary releases the contents of the bottle 8b to the outside through the channel 10b and the spray nozzle 5.
  • the bridge used in the case shown in Figures 2 and 3 still forms a three-way valve. It comprises a junction tube 11, which is forced into each of the lateral outlet orifices of two twin heads 12 a and 12 b to connect at right angles to their internal channels 13 a , 13 b , crossing the bore of a sleeve 14 carrying a nozzle such as the nozzle 15 a of the cannula 15.
  • Ramps 16 a , 16b keep the axes of heads 12 a and 12 b parallel, side by side.
  • valves 17 a and 17 b without intake tube, of two complementary cartridges 18 a and 18 b , the first of which is under pressure, enclosing these cartridges in a casing 19 of which a flange 19 has retained that , complementary, of each of the two heads 12 a , 12 b ; here is an offset in the bottom 19b of the housing 19 which compensates for the difference in length of the two cartridges.
  • the valve 17 b is here a metering valve: there are current models, on the bottle 18 b, will lend themselves to the operation described.
  • the internal channel of the tube 11 is divided by a central web into two bays which open laterally by two adjacent holes 11 a and 11 b, shown here in the same diametral plane.
  • the sleeve 14, which can rotate with gentle friction on the tube 11, carries two internal recesses one, 20 a , longitudinal, capable of bringing the two orifices into communication, the other, 20 b , in L or oblique transversely in rear of the plane of the figure, capable of connecting the orifice 11 b to that of the cannula 15 b 15.
  • the cannula disappears in a clearance 21 made between the two cartridges on the side of the housing 19; the recess 20 a then opens a passage between the two valves 17 a and 17 b .
  • the valve 17 b is connected to the 'outside.
  • the sleeve could also, not without drawbacks, it is true for sealing, be sliding.
  • the movable member if necessary returned by a spring, could even be a pusher with an axis parallel to those of the bottles: acting outside of it the operator would cause the transfer; then, pushing it in, it would put the device in the spraying position.
  • a tamper-evident belt could be placed on the sleeve, or even between the bridge and the case, provided that the latter is modified to allow the two cartridges to be introduced from the bottom.
