Definitions

  • This invention relates to an improved applicator stopper.
  • the invention has for its object an applicator stopper for containers wherein, for example, a solution to be used topically is contained.
  • the present stopper is more particularly devised for all the cases wherein a solution has to be applied on a determined area by means of a slight pression of the stopper onto the area to be treated, while the container is maintained in inverted position, said stopper comprising means for automatical obturation acting when the pressure ceases, which prevents the output flow of the liquid even in the inverted position of the container.
  • this stopper is the use in containers comprising solutions to be applied topically, as for example hair lotions, hair-growing compositions and the like, the normal position of use of such a container being the inverted position.
  • the proposed stopper it is possible to perfectly control the liquid pouring after having selected the area to be treated.
  • the stopper forming the object of the present invention is made of two one-piece bodies of a moulded material, one of these bodies forms a cylindrical sleeve inserted with close fit in the neck of the container, vial or similar, in suitable sealing conditions which impose the liquid to circulate only inside said sleeve.
  • the sleeve comprises a radial flange which acts as a stop when the stopper is inserted, said flange comprising a right-angled skirt which surrounds the mouth of the neck externally ; from this flange a truncated projection is provided, which is of a lower radius and provided with a circular aperture in its smaller base, which communicates the inside of the sleeve with the outside thereof.
  • the second body of the stopper is a cylindrical core which is mounted coaxially into the inside of the above-mentioned sleeve, this core having along its upper edge several helicoidal bands of a suitable material, which act as a spring due to the elasticity of the material, said bands uniting at the upper part as a circular base from which a projecting stud protrudes through the central aperture of the truncated projection of the sleeve. Said circular base remains applied against the seat formed by the central aperture of the truncated projection of the sleeve, due to the spring action, while creating the consequent obturation preventing the output flow of the liquid, even in the inverted position of the container.
  • this stud elastically steps back in axial direction, and the liquid flows through the passage resulting between the above-mentioned stud and the output aperture surrounding the latter.
  • a pouring stopper made of two one-piece bodies, designated in general by 1 and 2, of which 1 could be considered as a valve body, comprising a cylindrical sleeve 3 which locates under pressure into the neck of the container, and being provided on its external surface with annular ridges 4 as sealing means.
  • This sleeve 3 comprises a radial flange of the insertion kind, which comprises a skirt 6 which adapts itself onto the external end of the neck of the container.
  • a truncated projection 7 is provided with a pouring orifice 8.
  • the core 9 forming part of the body 1 is fixed ; this core could be considered as the actual obturator element.
  • helicoidal bands 10 of a suitable material acting as a spring are provided, these bands joining at their upper end a circular base with a conical seat 11 which adapts itself in the conical plane 16 provided at the lower internal part of the outlet orifice 8.
  • the obturation 2 comprises an end stud 12 projection from the orifice 8 in a position suitable for receiving a sealing cap 13.
