Definitions
- This invention relates to swivel-up type dispensing packages and, more particularly, to swivel-up type packages used to apply cream type deodorants or antiperspirants to the underarm.
- Swivel-up dispensing packages have been used to dispense cosmetic cream products to the axillae of the user.
- the product is moved to the outer end by manually turning a hand wheel, which drives a feed screw and, in turn, an elevator. Moving the elevator into the product pressurizes it, causing the product to be extruded through the orifice onto the applicating surface.
- the user may not be able to visually judge the proper amount of deodorant or antiperspirant which should be applied to each underarm, much less dispense this amount on an ephemeral basis with any degree of precision. Applying too much deodorant results in product waste and staining of clothes, while applying too little deodorant prevents efficacious results from being obtained.
- excess product will remain on the applicating surface creating a soiled and messy appearance.
- a dispensing package for cream products comprising:
- the swivel-up dispensing package illustrated in Figure 1, utilizes a rotatable hand wheel 33' located at the base of the container body 21''.
- a rotatable hand wheel 33' located at the base of the container body 21''.
- applicating surface 22'' At the top of the body 21'' is applicating surface 22'' with one or more orifices 23''.
- the applicating surface 22'' may be a separate element and retained in position, as shown, by a snap bead or other means known to one skilled in the art.
- the interior wall of the body 21'' forms the product chamber, which holds the cream product, obviating the need for a separate cavity within the body 21''.
- axially movable elevator 27'' congruent to the inside of the body 21''.
- Rigidly and nonrotatably associated with the bottom of the elevator 27'' is internally threaded nut 32''.
- the nut 32'' should have an axial length approximately equal to the internal diameter of the nut 32'' to help provide stability to the elevator 27'' during its travel.
- the base of the body 21'' is arcuate, having a recess which is convex towards the applicating surface 22''.
- the base recess is disposed above the hand wheel 33' and has a centrally located axially tapered hole 50 therein.
- the lowest elevation of hole 50 is at the base recess.
- the hole 50 is centered between a plurality of cantilevered fingers 51, typically four. Each finger 51 has one end affixed to the container body 21'' base and extends upwardly towards the applicating surface 22'' and radially inwardly towards the central axis, terminating in a free end.
- the free ends of the fingers 51 are disposed at an elevation above the base and define the circumference of the top of hole 50, which circumference is smaller than that of hole 50 at the elevation of the base.
- the free ends of fingers 51 also define the highest axial position of hole 50.
- Each finger 51 is separated from the adjacent fingers 51 by slots, allowing each finger 51 to deflect independently of the other fingers 51.
- Fingers 51 having fixed ends disposed about the circumference of base hole 50 and which form an angle of about 70° relative to the horizontal are suitable. It will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the fingers 51 could also be cantilevered from other positions on the base or from the inside wall of the container body 21'', so long as the fingers 51 do not interfere with the movement of elevator 27''. It will be further apparent that the fingers 51 could be oriented at other angles, including parallel to the horizontal.
- each finger 51 Disposed on the free end of each finger 51, is a plurality of cams 34''.
- the cams 34'' may be shaped like saw tooth ratchet teeth, as shown, may be V-shaped, or any other profile judged to be advantageous by the user may be employed.
- cams 34'' having a forward face 37'' ramped from about 20° to about 50°, preferably about 40° relative to the horizontal and an abrupt secondary face 38'' having an axial dimension ranging from 0.25 mm to 1.40 mm (0.010 to 0.055 inches), preferably from 0.51 mm to 0.89 mm, are generally suitable.
- the free end of finger 51 will accommodate five to seven cams 34'' thereon.
- a space or land may be interposed between adjacent cams 34'' to provide for a desired number of cams 34'' on a finger 51 at a specified diameter and having a specified forward face 37'' ramp angle.
- an axially rotatable hand wheel 33' is disposed beneath the arcuate base of the body 21'' in the recess of the base.
- the hand wheel 33' should have a exterior profile generally conforming to the recess of the base and extending outwardly from the sides of the body 21 ⁇ so that the hand wheel 33′ may be easily grasped by the user.
- a plurality of ratchet teeth, or followers 35 ⁇ Disposed about the periphery of the feed screw 31 ⁇ is a plurality of ratchet teeth, or followers 35 ⁇ , adapted to coact with the cams 34 ⁇ disposed on the free ends of the fingers 51 and preferably equal in number to the number cams 34 ⁇ on the fingers 51.
- a minimum of about four teeth 35 ⁇ are necessary to provide stability for the mechanism and prevent erratic movement of the elevator 27 ⁇ .
- the ratchet teeth, or followers 35 ⁇ , of the feed screw 31 ⁇ may depend from a circumferential collar 52, as shown, or otherwise protrude laterally from the circumference of the feed screw 31 ⁇ .
- Either the cams 34 ⁇ or followers 35 ⁇ should not be equally spaced about the central axis, such that any point in time, not all of the followers 35 ⁇ are in an azmuthal position corresponding to the slots between the fingers 51. This can be accomplished by having each of the four fingers 51 subtend an arc not equal to 90°.
- the slots are no wider than three-fourths of a tooth 37 ⁇ , to provide stability to the followers 35 ⁇ .
- at least four followers 35 ⁇ , spaced approximately 90° apart, are engaged with the cams 34 ⁇ at all times.
- the hand wheel 33 and feed screw 31 ⁇ assembly has a return spring 53 associated therewith.
- the return spring 53 is preferentially incorporated into the hand wheel 33′, as shown, to prevent accidental dispensing of product should the hand wheel 33′ be bumped, as for example, during packing of the dispensing containers.
- One manner in which the return spring 53 can be incorporated into the hand wheel 33′ is to provide a plurality of spokes extending from the central portion of the hand wheel 33′ to the periphery of the hand wheel 33′ and radiating in a spiral pattern as shown. The spokes flex, allowing relative axial displacement between feed screw 31 ⁇ and hand wheel 33′. The spiral pattern of the spokes should be such that the spokes are tensioned as the hand wheel 33′ is rotated.
- the return spring 53 may be external the hand wheel 33′, such as a leaf spring (not shown) cantilevered from the interior of the container body 21 ⁇ .
- an acetal hand wheel 33′ having a diameter at the lowermost portion of approximately 37.3 mm (1.47 inches) and a thickness of approximately 1.4 to 1.5 mm (.055 to .060 inches) is suitable.
- the plurality of followers 35 ⁇ may be disposed approximately 9.0 mm (.355 inches) above the top of the hand wheel 33′.
- Approximately 14.3 mm (.562 inches) above the top of the hand wheel 33′ is a suitable elevation for the axial position of the collar 52.
- a collar 52 having a diameter of about 7.5 mm (.297 inches) is sufficiently narrow to push through the hole 50 between the free ends of the fingers 51.
- the proximal end of the feed screw 31 ⁇ is preferentially disposed immediately above the collar 52.
- a spring 53 having a rate of approximately 3600 gm/cm (20 pounds per inch) is suitable. Such a spring rate can be approximated by a triskelion shaped spring 53 having spokes approximately 0.8 to 0.9 mm (.030 to .035 inches) in thickness, approximately 4.6 mm wide (.180 inches) and separated by slots approximately 1.0 mm (.040 inches) wide.
- One suitable drive means has an elevator 27 ⁇ of approximately 11 square centimeters (1.7 square inches) and a feed screw 31 ⁇ of approximately 5.6mm (.220 inches) diameter.
- the feed screw 31 ⁇ is centered between approximately 28 cams 34 ⁇ on a diameter of about 13.8mm (.540 inches).
- the cams 34 ⁇ have a forward face 37 ⁇ inclined at approximately 40° relative to the horizontal and an axial dimension of about 0.51mm (.020 inches).
- a feed screw 31 ⁇ which axially advances about 1.3mm (.05 inches) per rotation will dispense approximately .045 cubic centimeters of the cream product described above each time a cam 34 is traced. If the feed screw 31 ⁇ is made to advance about 5.1mm (.20 inches) per rotation, approximately .18 cubic centimeters of the product is dispensed each time a cam 34 ⁇ is traced.
- the package is assembled by inserting the elevator 27'' in the top of the product chamber and pushing the elevator 27'' downwardly until the nut 32'' protrudes through the hole 50 in the base.
- the feed screw 31'' is then threadably engaged with the nut 32'', and the hand wheel 33', feed screw 31'' and elevator 27'' are pushed upwardly towards the top of the container body 21'', until the collar 52 snaps into place above the plurality of fingers 51.
- the fingers 51 will spring outwardly until admitting the collar 52, but will be compressed and engage the collar 52 should one attempt to retract or pull the hand wheel 33' back out of the bottom of the dispensing package.
- the feedscrew 31'' is rotated via hand wheel 33', drawing the elevator 27'' assembly to its proximal, or lowermost, position.
- the dispenser of the invention described in Figures 1-4 are equipped to provide both discrete dosing and pressure relief of the cream product. Either characteristic can be amplified or reduced, as necessary to accommodate a specific combination of dispensing package and cream product. How these characteristics are related, and can be tuned, to provide the desired operation of the dispensing package, is best illustrated by referring to the graphical illustrations shown in Figures 5 through 7.
- the graphs illustrate that when less force is applied to expel the product through orifices 23'', less residual pressure will remain on the product.
- the amount of force applied to expel the product is related to the axial advance caused by rotation of the feedscrew and the cross-sectional area, and to a lesser extent distribution, of orifices 23''.
- the amount of axial retraction caused by cams 34'' must be proportionally increased. This will prevent the product or its components from weeping onto the applicating surface 22''.
- the container body 21'' is not perfectly rigid and may be placed in tension by high residual yield pressures.
- the elevator displacement is graphically illustrated by Figure 5, which shows the relationships between elevator displacement and product dispensed on the vertical axis and hand wheel 33' rotation on the horizontal axis.
- a line 61 drawn from the first origin represents the elevator 27'' displacement due to advance of the feed screw 31'' caused by rotation relative to nut 32'', without riding on the cams 34''.
- Lines 62-63-62 of the same graph represent the axial advance of elevator 27'' due to the follower 35'' tracing the profile of the saw tooth shaped cams 34''.
- the two curves shown on the first horizontal axis of Figure 5 can be superimposed, as shown by the resultant curve on the second horizontal axis, to give the axial displacement of the elevator 27''.
- This superposition is shown by points 62 and 63 of the first graph shifting to points 62' and 63' in the second graph.
- the displacement of the follower 35'' as it rides on cams 34'' is superimposed with the axial displacement of the feed screw 31'' to give the resultant cycle shown by lines 62'-63'-62'. If the feed screw displacement line 61 is superimposed on the resultant cycle 62'-63'-62', line 61 will intersect at points 62'.
- the pressure relief characteristic of the dispensing package can be reduced.
- the lead angle of the feed screw 31'' is adjusted, as described above, to provide a small advance of the elevator 27'', relative to the advance due to the cams 34'', the dosing feature described above is maintained.
- This dosing effect is characterized by dispensing product only during a short part of each cycle. Typically, when approximately one quarter or less of the rotation between "clicks" dispenses product, and the remaining rotation advances the elevator 27'' a distance which is insufficient to dispense product, the dosing effect defined by this invention is maintained. Dispensing, at a non-uniform rate, which gives discrete dosing can be maintained with a deadband 63'-65 of less than one-half the dispensing cycle, but a deadband of three-fourths cycle or greater is preferred.
- This dosing effect can be amplified, as graphically illustrated in Figure 6, by adding spaces or lands between the cams 34'' which cause the follower 35'' to dwell in the axial direction.
- product dispensed in the large part of the cycle 62''-65' that is characterized only by the advance of the feed screw 31'' and by riding up the cam to the maximum forward displacement of the previous cycle.
- the dispensation of the product will be effectively limited to that portion of the cycle 65'-63'', which includes both the axial advance of the cam 34'' and feed screw 31'' beyond the furthest axial position of the previous cycle.
- the invention can be adapted to a dispensing package which emphasizes pressure relief but not the dosing effect. If the lead angle of the feed screw 31'' is increased, and the height of cams 34'' retracts the elevator 27'' a distance which is sufficient to relieve the residual pressure to a degree which prevents weeping onto surface 22'', as graphically illustrated by the increased slope of line 61'' of Figure 7, the invention increases the pressure relief without increasing the dosing effect. The height of the cams 34'' will provide enough pressure relief to prevent weeping and the increased lead angle of the thread of the feed screw 31'', will cause an exaggerated part of the cycle 65''-63''' to dispense product, as shown on the second horizontal axis of Figure 7. Thus, by selectively incorporating the proper cam height, feed screw lead angle, interior chamber cross section and properties of the cream product, the dispenser can be designed to amplify either the dosing characteristic, pressure relief characteristic, or both.
- feed screw 31'' could be fitted with gear teeth. These gear teeth could then be engaged with the teeth of a mating gear which extends outside of the container body to be rotated by the user and in turn drive the feed screw 31''.
- a device is closely related to the embodiment as described above, differing only in that the rotatable hand wheel 33' is a gear which drives feed screw 31''.
- a variety of related drive means are known to advance the elevator 27'' of the swivel-up dispensing package described above. These rely on relative motion between a feed screw 31'' and a nut 32'' in the package. Either can be rotated to provide the movement of the elevator 27'' depending on the arrangement.
- a family of mechanisms could be constructed having a non-rotating nut 32'' and rotating feed screw 31''.
- the nut 32'' can be attached to the elevator 27'' and an axially affixed feed screw 31'' rotated, or the nut 32'' could be mounted in fixed relationship with the package body 21'' and a feed screw 31'', rotatably affixed to the elevator 27'', turned to effect dispensing.
- a family of other mechanisms can be constructed having a rotating nut 32'' and a non-rotating feed screw 31''. So long as this relative rotation between the nut 32'' and feed screw 31'' is maintained, either family of mechanisms would be a feasible drive means for the dispensing package.
- cam 34'' and follower 35'' there is also a variety of closely related and feasible alternative embodiments for the cam 34'' and follower 35'' system.
- the embodiment illustrated by the figures show a plurality of stationary cams 34'' and followers 35'' which are associated with the elevator 27'' through a rotating hand wheel 33'.
- the illustrated followers 35'' are specifically adapted to the saw tooth shaped profile of cams 34''.
- a generic follower having one or more axial tines, equally suited to tracing a variety of cam 34'' profiles could be utilized.
- the designer may additionally wish to interchange the positions of the cam 34'' and follower 35'', such that the follower 35'' is stationary, and the cam 34'' is associated with the rotating component and elevator.
