Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a closure cap for a container, which is equipped with tilting means for dispensing the substance contained in said container.
  • closure caps of this type which are adapted, for example by screwing, on the neck of bottles containing the substance to be dispensed, are used to enable a dose of said substance to be dispensed according to a relatively fine jet or flow, which would not be the case if the capsule was removed due to the large section of the neck.
  • Such capsules find application for example in the distribution of shampoos.
  • a capsule of this type which comprises a lateral skirt connected to a bottom in which a central outlet opening is formed, which opens into the base of a hollow zone delimited by two opposite lateral wings, which are perpendicular to the mean plane of said bottom, and which extend from the central region of said bottom comprising the outlet opening to the vicinity of its border.
  • An element traversed by a channel is mounted tilting in this hollow zone, between a closed stopper position where it substantially occupies this hollow zone and where the outlet orifice is closed, and a raised distribution position where the aforementioned channel is in direct communication with the outlet.
  • the tilting element carries lateral pins rotating in housings opening into the wings, in the central region of the bottom.
  • a closure cap according to the preamble of claim 1, the bottom of which has an outlet chimney for the substance to be dispensed, this chimney being located in a hollow area delimited by two opposite wings and extending substantially from one end to the other of the bottom.
  • This recessed area receives a tilting shutter comprising a lower liquid inlet opening bordered by a skirt fitting onto the end of the aforementioned chimney, this opening constituting the inlet of a channel formed in a front part of said shutter , said shutter having the same overall structure as the tilting element of the previous embodiment.
  • the shutter has a rear part constituting a tilting control member, and carrying, for this purpose, two lateral pins rotating in housings made in the two facing wings, which delimit the hollow area of the bottom of the capsule.
  • the tilting control is therefore carried out by pressing the finger on the upper plate of this rear part, which is an advantage compared to the previous embodiment; however, the major drawback of this shutter is the same as above.
  • the embodiment according to US-A-4 645 086 is substantially similar and has the same drawbacks.
  • a subject of the present invention is therefore the new industrial product which constitutes a closure cap for a container, adapted to allow the distribution of the substance by an outlet channel without it being necessary to remove it from the container, said capsule comprising an adapter member which comprises a sleeve intended to adapt to the mouth of said container and connected to a bottom on which is formed a hollow zone delimited by a base and by two wings facing each other, an orifice substance outlet being formed in said base, said recessed area receiving a tiltable shutter member from a closed position of said outlet orifice to a dispensing position in which said orifice is released: the outlet channel being in communication with the outlet orifice, characterized in that said obturator member comprises a tubular wall having an opening facing the bottom: and of the channel outlet, said bottom comprising means complementary to said tubular wall to delimit with it the outlet channel of the substance in the dispensing position of said shutter member, and to adapt to said tubular wall in the closed position of the shutter member by making the output channel disappear.
  • the base of the recessed area is formed by two plates separated by a recess, namely an upper front plate, in which the outlet opening for the substance is made and a rear lower plate, the shutter member being constituted by a base plate, said shutter member comprising on the one hand, a front part with means for closing the orifice of said adapter member, as well as the tubular wall intended to constitute the outlet channel for the substance, and, on the other hand, a rear part constituting the operating flap of said tilting shutter member and carrying laterally articulation means arranged along a transverse axis, articulation means which cooperate with complementary parts carried by said adapter member.
  • the front part of the shutter member comprises, on either side of the base plate, advantageously two lateral wings capable of each entering a lateral groove formed between one of the wings and the upper front plate, the two wings defining with the base plate of the front part, the tubular wall, which partially delimits the outlet channel in the distribution position of the obturating member, the two wings being positioned completely in the lateral grooves in the position d shutter of the shutter member, to allow the support of the base plate on the upper front plate, but being only partially extracted from said grooves in the dispensing position of the member shutter.
  • the two wings are arranged in planes substantially parallel to the axis of the sleeve, said planes converging towards each other in the direction of the front plate.
  • the bottom comprises, inside the sleeve, a sealing skirt penetrating into the outlet mouth of the container;
  • the sleeve has internal bulges arranged on an annular zone in the vicinity of its lower edge, and constituting means for latching of the adapter member under an annular rod carried by the container, said sleeve also comprising radial fins for positioning said member adapter on the end of said container;
  • the bottom externally wears an external covering skirt, which surrounds the sleeve.
  • the substantially cylindrical cavity has a circular section and the means for closing this cavity is formed by a cylindrical sleeve, provided projecting downwards under the front part of the obturator member, this sleeve being suitable for sealingly engage in the cylindrical cavity, and comprising, towards the front, a window in its cylindrical wall for the passage of the product.
  • the present invention also relates to a container closed by the closure cap as it has just been defined.
  • the bottle 1 made for example of plastic material, comprises a body 5 which is connected to a neck 6 by a shoulder 7.
  • the neck 6 carries externally, in the vicinity of the shoulder 7, an annular ring 8 for retaining the adapter 3.
  • the substantially circular edge of the bottom 11 is folded back to form the peripheral connection zone with the covering cover 10; the bottom 11 has, formed on its upper part, a hollow zone 15 delimited by two lateral wings 16 arranged face to face, symmetrically and obliquely with respect to a diametral plane of the adapter 3.
  • the base 11 has a recess 17 disposed along the axial plane perpendicular to the aforementioned plane of symmetry, which divides said base 11 into an upper plate 18 in the region (front) where the two wings come together, and a lower plate 19, in the region (rear) where the two wings 16 move apart.
  • the recess 17 has a profile substantially in a quarter circle.
  • the two wings 16 are joined by walls in a circular arc 20 and 21, constituting in both cases a rim of the covering hood 10 in this region.
  • the rim 20 is of lower height than the rim 21.
  • the plate 19 has a circular orifice 22 whose axis belongs to the plane of symmetry of the adapter 3, and which is located approximately halfway between the front edge 20 and the recess 17. Furthermore, as can be see in Figures 4 and 6, on either side of the orifice 22, and between the front edge 20 and the vicinity of the recess 17, the wall of the plate 19 is folded, along each of the wings 16 , to form a U-shaped groove 24, the role of which is indicated below.
  • the bottom 11 has internally a cylindrical sealing skirt 28, intended to penetrate into the mouth of the neck 6 of the bottle 1, to ensure sealing when the adapter 3 is in place on the bottle 1.
  • the skirt 28 is connected to both the plate 18 and the plate 19, so that it has a variable height, its lower edge lying in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the sleeve 9; said lower edge is chamfered, to facilitate the positioning of the adapter 3 on the bottle 1.
  • the covering hood 10 is connected to the bottom 11 by a rounded zone; it presents an overall shape slightly swollen in its middle part.
  • the shutter 4 comprises, perpendicular to its longitudinal axis of symmetry and substantially halfway between the edges 31 and 32, a short tongue 34 perpendicular to the base plate 29, oriented on the same side as the skirt 33 and extending over the entire width of said base plate 29.
  • the tongue 34 is rounded along its edge opposite the skirt 33.
  • the tongue 34 divides the base plate 29 into a front part 35 and a rear part 36, intended to be placed in the mounting position of the dispensing capsule 2, respectively in line with the upper plate 18 and the lower plate 19.
  • the base plate 29 In its front part 35, between the edge 31 and the vicinity of the tongue 34, the base plate 29 is bordered, along its two oblique edges 30 and on the same side as the tongue 34, by two lateral wings 37 whose free ends are tapered. These wings 37 are capable of being completely housed in the grooves 24 of the adapter 3.
  • the lateral edges of the base plate 29 are folded back to form two square returns 41, which constitute the extension of the skirt 33 and the height of which decreases progressively from the skirt 33 to the vicinity of the tongue 34 , where they each carry an external pin 42, the axis of which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of symmetry of the shutter 4.
  • the assembly of the device according to the invention is carried out in a very simple manner: the adapter 3 is presented axially above the bottle 1 and it is lowered along the axis until the peripheral bulges 12 of the sleeve 19 snap under the peripheral ring 8; the radial fins 13 and 14 ensure the positioning of the adapter 3 on the bottle 1, and the skirt 28 seals the closure by entering the mouth of the neck 6.
  • the shutter 4 is presented flat and suitably oriented at- above the adapter 3 and it is lowered until the pins 42 rest on the inclined planes 27; then a force is applied to the base plate 29 to cause the pins 42 to penetrate into the housings 25.
  • the tongue 34 bears against the recess 17; the front edge 31 of the plate 29 bears against the rim 20 of the covering cover 10; the lateral wings 37 are completely housed in the grooves 24 and the external edge of the skirt 33 is located in the vicinity of the internal edge of the rim 21 of the covering hood 10.
  • the widths are delimited by two circular arcs 153 a and 153 b , the circular arc 153 a at the front of the plate being positioned tangentially to the wall in a circular arc 120 constituting the edge of the covering hood 110, the circular arc 153 b at the rear of the plate 118 coming to bear tangentially on a line connecting the rear ends of the grooves 124.
  • a fin 154 On the underside of the front portion 135 of the shutter is provided a fin 154, the base of which is a closed curve exactly matching the shape of the walls of the cavity 151; this fin 154 is indented at the front over 3/4 of its depth. In the closed position, the fin 154 fits completely on the walls of the cavity 151 and the substance contained in the bottle 101 cannot pass.
  • the outlet opening of the chimney 23 has thus been released, as shown in FIG. 3, and constituted a distribution channel 43 delimited between the shutter 4 and the front plate 18 of the adapter 3.
  • the base plate 29 and the lateral wings 37 form a tubular wall open towards the plate 18 and limited towards the rear by the tongue 34.
  • the internal surface of the cavity 251 is slightly flared from the bottom 211 upwards.
  • the rear cylindrical wall delimiting the cavity 251 forms the recess 217.
  • the wall limiting the cavity 251 is tangent to the front end B (FIG. 14) of the adapter member 203.
  • the diameter of the cavity 251 is only slightly less than the distance between the wings 216, towards the front, so that the upper plate 218 has a relatively small surface.
  • the opening 222 opens into the rear part of the bottom of the cavity 251 and has the shape of a convex lens (see FIG. 14) limited, towards the front, by an arc of a circle centered on the axis of the member adapter 203 and located slightly inside the interior contour of the skirt 228. Towards the rear, this opening 222 is limited by the circular outline of the base of the cavity 251.
  • the sleeve M is suitable for sealingly engaging in this cavity 251.
  • the sleeve M comprises, towards the front, a rectangular window 243 in its cylindrical wall for the passage of the product.
  • a border 1 located below window 243, connects the two side walls delimiting this window (see FIG. 16).
  • the assembly is such that in the dispensing position of the shutter member 204, as shown in FIG. 13, the edge l remains engaged at least in part in the cavity 251.
  • the combination of the wall delimiting the cavity 251 and from the tubular wall 254 makes it possible to establish a closed channel leading the product from the orifice 222 to the outlet window 243.
  • This window is located outside, in the radial direction, of the mouth 206 of the container and is located on the edge of the adapter member 203.
  • the molding of the two parts constituting the closure cap of FIGS. 13 to 16 can be carried out under simple and economical conditions.
  • the production of window 243 does not pose any particular problem with molding and demolding.
