Definitions
- the invention relates to a spray head for a spray can, comprising a hollow stem having a bore which is adapted to be brought into communication with the liquid space of the spray can, and which on the other hand, terminates near a spray nozzle having an exit aperture, so as to force liquid driven into said bore by the outward pressure of the spray can through said aperture for being sprayed.
- the droplets of the sprayed liquid formed in the nozzle will still contain driving agent which immediately evaporate, so that the droplets will be reduced which enhances the formation of a fine mist.
- a spray head for a spray can comprising a jet pump to be operated by propellant gas from the can, the pressure reduction being used for drawing a foamable liquid upwards from the can, additional passages communicating with the outside being present for drawing ambient air inwards, the propellant and the air being used for forming a foam.
- This jet pump does not comprise a jet nozzle for forming droplets to be ejected as a mist.
- This spray head can be constructed in various manners, as defined in the subclaims.
- a spray head 1 is shown in a simplified manner, which head comprises a stem 2 with a bore 3, which stem is to be mounted on a spray can, and is designed for opening a dispensing valve not shown when being pressed downwards. Then the liquid to be sprayed will be driven into the bore 3 by the gas or vapour pressure acting within the spray can.
- the bore 3 is continued by a transverse bore 4 of a spray nozzle terminating in a dispensing aperture 6. So far the present head 1 corresponds with the current spray heads.
- a jet pump 7 is diagrammatically indicated.
- This pump comprises a jet nozzle 8 through which the liquid driven through the bore 3 flows, said nozzle 8 opening into a wider chamber 9 communicating, via an additional bore 10, with the ambient air.
- the jet pump 7 diagrammatically shown can be realised in many other ways, e.g. in the form of a venturi tube. Moreover the location thereof in the bore 3 can be varied. It can be favourable to arrange it as closely as possible near the aperture 6, and this in view of manufacturing as well in view of the mixing effect.
- Fig. 2 a first practical embodiment of the spray head 1 is shown. The parts thereof corresponding with Fig. 1 have been indicated therein with the same reference numerals.
- the transverse bore 4 terminates into a substantially annular chamber 11 into which a cylindrical cap 12 has been inserted which has a front wall 13 in which the aperture 6 is provided.
- the wall 13 defines, together with an end face 14 of a central piece 15 of the nozzle portion 5, a chamber 16 communicating with the bore 4 in which sloping baffles 17 can be arranged in order to allow the liquid to be brought in a revolving motion before emerging through the aperture 6.
- This tube end and the aperture 6 form together the jet pump 7 as well as the spray nozzle 8 of Fig. 1.
- This embodiment of the nozzle 5 is of the current design with the exception of the additional tube 18 opening into the aperture 6 which adaptation can easily be realised.
- FIG. 3 shows still another practical embodiment in which, again, parts corresponding with Figs. 1 and 2 have been provided with the same reference numerals.
- the tube 18 has been omitted, and before the end face 13 of the cap 12 a disc 19 directed parallel thereto is provided which, together with this end face 13, defines a passage 10′ forming the air suction passage.
- a disc 19 directed parallel thereto is provided which, together with this end face 13, defines a passage 10′ forming the air suction passage.
- air suction openings 20 are provided, and in the centre of this disc an aperture 6′ has been formed which is situated coaxially with the aperture 6 of the cap and has substantially the same diameter.
- the passage 10′ can be provided, if required, with guiding baffles for imparting a revolving motion to the air flow sucked in, which motion, as the case may be, can be opposite to that of the revolving motion of the liquid caused by the baffles 17.

Claims (5)
- Sprühkopf für Sprühbehälter mit einem Hohlschaft mit einer Bohrung, die in Verbindung gebracht werden kann mit dem Flüssigkeitsraum eines Sprühbehälters, und welche andererseits in eine Sprühdüse mündet, welche eine Austrittsöffnung aufweist, so daß eine Flüssigkeit, die in die Bohrung geführt wird, durch den Innendruck des Sprühbehälters zum Versprühen durch die Öffnung gedrückt wird, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß die Sprühdüse (8, 16) sich in einen Durchlaß öffnet, welcher als Strahlpumpe (7) wirkt, welche durch den nach außen gedrückten Flüssigkeitsfluß angetrieben wird, wobei ein zusätzlicher Durchlaß (10, 10′) vorgesehen ist, welcher die Saugseite der Strahlpumpe (7) mit der umgebenden Luft verbindet.
- Sprühkopf nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß der als Strahlpumpe (7) arbeitende Durchlaß durch einen zusätzlichen Durchlaß (18) im Kopf (5) gebildet ist, welcher sich getrennt vom Flüssigkeitsdurchlaß (4, 16) in die Austrittsöffnung (6) öffnet, wobei die Öffnung soviel größer als der Außenumfang des zusätzlichen Durchlasses (18) ist, daß der Durchlaß für die aus dem Flüssigkeitsdurchlaß (16) austretende Flüssigkeit frei bleibt.
- Sprühkopf nach Anspruch 2, in welchem sich die Bohrung des Schaftes in eine Ringkammer öffnet, welche mit der Austrittsöffnung kommuniziert, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß der zusätzliche Durchlaß (18) eine Bohrung (10) ist, die sich im wesentlichen koaxial mit der Ringkammer (16) erstreckt, wobei eine Wandung (14), die diese Kammer bestimmt, versehen ist mit einem Vorsprung, der sich in die Öffnung erstreckt und das Ende der Bohrung (10) umgibt.
- Sprühkopf nach Anspruch 1, bei welchem die Austrittsöffnung gebildet ist in einer Scheibe, die den Flüssigkeitsdurchlaß schließt, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß der als Strahlpumpe (7) arbeitende Durchlaß durch eine zweite Scheibe (19) gebildet wird, die in geringem Abstand parallel an der Austrittsseite der ersten Scheibe (13) angeordnet ist, wobei die zweite Scheibe (19) versehen ist mit einer zweiten Öffnung (6′), die koaxial zur ersten Öffnung angeordnet ist und im wesentlichen den gleichen Durchmesser hat, wobei der Zwischenraum (10′) zwischen den beiden Scheiben (13, 19) nahe des Umfangs (10) mit der Umgebung kommuniziert.
- Sprühkopf nach Anspruch 4, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß in dem Zwischenraum (10′) zwischen den beiden Scheiben (13, 19) Leitwände vorgesehen sind, die dem durch den Zwischenraum angesaugten Luftstrom eine Wirbelbewegung verleihen können.
