Definitions

  • This invention relates to a device for the controlled delivery of substances contained in yieldable tubes, i.e. metal or plastics tubes which can be squeezed to obtain the delivery of the substance via a delivery mouth provided with a cap.
  • yieldable tubes i.e. metal or plastics tubes which can be squeezed to obtain the delivery of the substance via a delivery mouth provided with a cap.
  • the device according to the invention can be used for dispensing any substance of fluid behaviour, or a pasty substance, but is particularly suitable for use in dispensing adhesive or glue.
  • FR-A-1 170 939 relates to a dispensing device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • US-A-1 876 489 refers to a tube holder and dispenser having pressure operable dispensing means which provides the arrangement of complemental wall members having the lowermost ends thereof offset to provide attaching flanges.
  • BE-A-418 523 is a similar device comprising plates connected at their ends by a spring-loaded screw.
  • GB-A-2 206 567 relates to a collapsible dispensing container.
  • US-A-3 405 843 refers to a container-dispenser for a collapsible tube having a case in two part connected by rivets at their ends.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a device with a cover which provides protection against the handling of the tube by children.
  • said delivery nozzle is screwed onto said tube mouth which is provided with a closure cap.
  • a closure cover providing protection against undesirable handling by children is snap-fitted to said casing to cover said delivery nozzle when provided with its cap.
  • the device of the invention is indicated overall by 10 and consists structurally of a box casing 11 comprising two half-casings 12, 13 joined together by pins 14.
  • Said casing 11 contains a gripper element 15 consisting of a pair of jaws comprising two opposing surfaces 16 hinged together at 17 and provided with respective pressing pads 18.
  • Said gripper element is contained within the casing 11 with the hinge 17 housed in suitable cradles 19, and with the pressing pads 18 projecting through apertures 20 provided in opposing surfaces of the half-casings 12, 13.
  • the gripper element 15 is arranged to receive between its jaws a yieldable tube 21 the threaded mouth 22 of which extends through an axial opening 23 in the casing 11.
  • a delivery nozzle 24 provided with a closure cap 25 which is applied to the nozzle 24 via a snap connection 26, 27.
  • the nozzle 24 is also provided with a peg 31 for piercing the closure diaphragm of the mouth 22.
  • the reference numeral 28 indicates a cover which when the cap 25 has been replaced on the delivery nozzle 24 is mounted over this latter as shown in Figure 2, to removably snap-engage the casing 11 via teeth 29, which yield elastically on pressing the lateral surfaces 30 of the cover.
  • the gripper element 15 also enables the tube 21 to be completely emptied, allowing total use of the substance contained in it.
  • the substance delivered through the nozzle 24 does not soil the surrounding parts and the provision of the cap 25 prevents the substance from drying, so allowing immediate reuse of the tube.
  • the safety cover 28 prevents undesirable handling of the substance contained in the tube, which may be dangerous if ingested by children.
