Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for the portionwise generation of foam from liquid soap according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention further relates to a device for the portionwise generation of foam from liquid soap according to the preamble of patent claim 3.
- Soap dispensers are known in practice, in particular for toilets and washrooms in public buildings and restaurants, in which a measured portion of liquid soap is dispensed into the hand by actuating a pivoting lever.
- the disadvantage of these soap dispensers is that they tend to drip, i.e. that, over time, soap accumulates below the soap dispenser on the washing trough or on the floor, which must be removed.
- aqueous soap solution comes from a storage container into a cylinder chamber which is connected to a metering pump in the form of a piston, which also serves as a slide for a piston outlet opening, which leads to a mixing chamber which is connected to a diaphragm pump.
- the diaphragm pump is actuated by an actuating lever at the same time as the metering piston. In the initial position, liquid soap solution can flow from the reservoir into the cylinder space of the metering pump.
- the foam of this known device varies greatly in consistency, which can be attributed to the fact that deposits in the narrow connecting lines and the porous filters mean that the conditions for foam formation with regard to pressure and mixture ratio do not remain constant over a long period of time can be held. Furthermore, the known device requires a large amount of maintenance to maintain reasonably constant conditions. This is cumbersome and expensive.
- the invention seeks to remedy this.
- the invention has for its object to provide a method and an apparatus in which, regardless of the level of the soap container, the same amount can always be produced with properties that can be determined in advance.
- an expansion tank in which a defined amount of soap and air always flows after each pump stroke keeps the consistency and the amount of foam constant.
- the amount of soap and air in the expansion tank can be changed and thus the ratio between air and soap in the foam and adjusted to the soap quality and viscosity used.
- a tube arranged in the expansion tank enables easy assembly and - if necessary - replacement of the foamer and allows foam residues to be sucked back or blown off at the dispenser opening at the end of the dispensing process and to prevent dripping.
- the head space above the soap can be easily, e.g. be kept constant within very narrow limits by the immersed tube from the storage container.
- the device according to the invention has a very simple structure with an inexpensive foamer, as is already known on the market, and can also be replaced in a simple and inexpensive manner if used very frequently.
- the immersion depth of the filling tube By changing the immersion depth of the filling tube, the amount of soap or the consistency of the foam can be easily adapted to the needs. This is particularly advantageous if the quality of the soap is not constant.
- the head space above the soap can be kept very small and thus the pump volume can be kept small.
- the air required to fill the pump can be passed outside the head space so that there is no foam formation when the lever is actuated very often can be done.
- the simple implementation can easily suffice.
- the foam dispensing device 1 is accommodated in a housing 3, which can be attached to a wall 5, and is made of plastic or sheet metal.
- a storage container 7 is accommodated with a nozzle 9 attached to its base 8, which is connected via a connecting line 11 to an expansion tank 13.
- the line 11 dips from above through an opening 15 into the expansion tank 13 by the amount X. If desired, the line 11 can be telescopic in order to make the immersion depth X adjustable (indicated by broken lines).
- the lower end of the line 11 is closed by a membrane valve 12, which on the one hand allows the entry of liquid soap 27 from the storage container into the expansion tank 13, but, when the expansion tank 13 is pressurized, does not allow liquid soap to escape from the expansion tank 13 into the storage tank 7.
- the design of the valve 12 is not described in detail, since such valves are sufficiently known from the prior art.
- the foamer 21 consists of a soap supply pipe 16, the upper end of which has a central opening or a large number of fine bores 18.
- a fine-pored sieve or sintered plate 20 lies above the bores 18 and at a distance from them.
- the upper end of the jacket of the line 16 has fine bores 22 which are connected to the interior of the expansion tank 13.
- the annular space outside of the fine sieve 20 is spanned by an annular membrane seal 24 which, in the event of overpressure in the expansion tank 13, only allows air to escape through the fine sieve 20, but allows negative air to enter the head space 45 if there is negative pressure inside.
- the expansion tank 13 is further connected by a line 36 to a bellows 35 acting as a pump.
- a transmission lever 41 engages on the bellows 35 and is mounted on the housing 3 so as to be pivotable about an axis B.
- An actuating lever 39 which projects out of the housing 3 at the bottom, can be pivoted about an axis A and is articulated to the transmission lever 41 with a second axis C.
- a return spring 47 is inserted in the bellows 35, which returns the bellows 35 to the starting position when there is no force F on the actuating lever 39. Alternatively, the spring 47 can of course also engage one of the levers 39 or 41.
- the valve 12 on the nozzle 9 is closed.
- the pressure p1 in the expansion tank 13 drops since the actuating lever 39 returns to the starting position and air can enter the head space 45 through the opening membrane seal 24. Air can flow back through the line 36 into the bellows 5 and fill it up again.
- liquid soap flows through the nozzle 9 from the storage tank 7 down through the valve 12 into the expansion tank 13 until the amount of soap squeezed out during foaming is replaced.
- the level h2 is determined by the immersion depth x of the connecting line 11.
- a corresponding valve can also be used at another location of the expansion tank 13.
- the foam dispensing tube 26 can also be surrounded by a jacket 28 through which the air is sucked back into the bellows 35. Any remaining foam at the end of the tube 26 can be sucked back into the expansion tank.
- a plate, step angular or star-shaped lever 50 (indicated by dash-dotted lines in FIG. 1), which is pivotally mounted about the axis A to the side of the pump 35.
- the stroke when the pump 35 is actuated thereby becomes somewhat smaller. This can be compensated for by a correspondingly larger bellows.
- a foam dispensing device 101 is shown with a housing 103 which is attached to a wall 105.
- a storage container 107 is accommodated with a connection piece 109 attached to its base 108 and connected to an expansion tank 113 via a connecting line 111.
- the line 111 dips into the expansion tank 113 from above through an opening 115.
- a tube 117 is inserted, on the bottom 162 of which a valve 163 is arranged.
- a second pipe 116 the lower end of which is open and the foamer 121 is placed on the upper end, projects into the first pipe 117.
- An O-ring 165 can be used to seal the tube 117 with respect to the tubular recess 161.
- the tube 117 forms a metering accumulator 110 with a volume that is substantially smaller than that of the expansion tank 113.
- a bellows pump 135 is placed over the storage container 107 and is articulated by a lever or linkage 141 to a two-armed actuating lever 139.
- the operating lever 139 and the two-armed lever 141 can also be connected to one another by a spring 144 inserted between the articulated connection point 142 and the end 146 of a shortened lever 141.
- the spring 144 is designed to progressively build up the force on the bellows 135 when the actuating lever 139 is operated (pivoting counterclockwise) by tensioning the spring 144 and to continue to compress the bellows 135 even after the pivoting movement of the actuating lever 139 has ended.
- a spring 147 is intended, after the actuation lever 139 has been pivoted and thus after the bellows 135 has been compressed, to move the bellows 135 back into the starting position and to fill it with air.
- a connecting line 136 leads from the bellows 135 to the head of the foamer 121, which is surrounded by a housing 169.
- the formation of the foamer 121 is explained in more detail with reference to FIG. 3.
- the foamer 121 is inserted into the end of the tube 117.
- a dip tube 116 open at the bottom leads from the foamer 121 to close to the lower entrance of the tube 117.
- the upper end of the tube 116 ends under the fine bores 118 in the foamer 121 and opens at a distance from a fine-meshed sieve 120.
- Above the sieve 120 and in contact with the latter begins a foam dispensing line 126, from the end of which the foam S is dispensed onto the hand.
- Fine channels 122 at the upper end of the dip tube 116 lead into the space between the bores 118 and the soap surface in the tube 117.
- the tube 117 is connected at the top via a valve 146 to the line 136 with the bellows 135.
- the foam dispensing tube 126 leads through an intermediate wall 167 within the housing 169.
- the housing 169 is also connected to the line 136 by a first diaphragm valve 171.
- a collection space 172 for the liquefaction of sucked-back foam S can be provided between the valves 146 and 171.
- the foam dispensing device 101 in the embodiment according to FIGS. 2 and 3 works as follows. After the storage container 107 has been inserted, liquid soap 127 flows through the nozzle 109 into the expansion tank 113 until a level of h2 is reached. Through the valve 163, the liquid soap can also enter the tube 117 from below and also fill it up to the height h2. By pulling the actuating lever 139, the pump designed as bellows 135 is compressed via the linkage 141 and at the same time the return spring 147 curious; excited. In order to obtain the largest possible amount of air with a short pump stroke, two bellows pumps 135 can also be arranged side by side in parallel.
- the expanding bellows 135 draws air through the line 136 through the valve 171 from the space between the pipe 126 and the housing 169 and at the same time draws air from the environment at the end of the pipe 126. Any foam residue left there is sucked back into the foamer 121 and can return into the pipe 117 the next time air is applied through the valve 146. Liquid soap is never sucked up into the bellows 135, which is located at the highest point of the device, and no contamination can occur. Furthermore, the described manner of recycling foam residues prevents foaming of the liquid soap 127 in the expansion tank 113. Instead of sucking back foam residues when filling the bellows 135, the bellows can be filled directly through a valve arranged on the bellows 135 (no illustration). To prevent dripping at the end of the tube 126, a further bellows can be provided, which is pressed together when the actuating lever 139 returns and blows off foam residues into the hand through a line with an air jet.
- two bellows 235 serving as a pump are arranged on the rear wall and are connected to the actuating lever 239 via a T-shaped lever 241.
- the operating lever 239 is two armed and pivotable about the point A. Analogous to the embodiment according to FIG. 2, the operating lever 239 can also be connected to the T-shaped lever 241 by a spring 244 in order to enable progressive pressure build-up in the bellows 235.
- the end of the second arm of the operating lever 239 engages a third bellows pump 235 '.
- the two bellows 235 are connected via feed lines to a pressure line 238, which opens into an expansion tank 213 and into a space 280 in which the foamer 221 is located.
- a check valve 263 is inserted, which prevents air from being sucked out of head space 245 when the two bellows 235 are refilled.
- the bellows are filled by valves 240.
- the expansion tank 213 is connected to a storage tank 207 by a line 209.
- a foamer 221, as has been described in FIG. 1, is inserted in a pipe socket 217.
- a dip tube 216 attached to it dips into the liquid soap 227.
- the foam dispensing tube 226 begins above the foamer 221 and ends at the front of the housing 203.
- a line 281 leads from the bellows 235 'to the end of the discharge pipe 226.
- the line 281 preferably opens out somewhat offset from the line 226.
- the operating lever 239 As soon as the operating lever 239 is released, it returns to the starting position by means of corresponding springs, which can be installed, for example, in the two bellows 235 (not shown) or by a spring which acts directly on the operating lever 239 (not shown).
- the bellows 235 ' is pressed together (as shown in FIG. 4). Its content is then led through the line 281 past the opening of the tube 226 and at most blows away any foam still hanging there.
- a single plate-shaped, angle-shaped or star-shaped lever 250 (plate-shaped design indicated by dash-dotted lines) can also occur in this embodiment of the invention, which is pivotably mounted about the axis A and one end of which is connected to the pump 235 'and with its part shown on the left is connected to the rear of the pumps 235.
- the lever 250 can also consist of two parallel plates arranged to the side of the pumps 235.
- the axis A can be supported on both sides of the housing 203, so that an extremely stable arrangement results.
- the axis of rotation A of the one-piece operating lever 339 is arranged essentially point-symmetrically between the pumps 335 and 335 '.
- the three pumps are each offset by 90 ° around pivot point A.
- Spherical connecting elements 370 are fastened to the actuating lever 339 on a support 360 projecting laterally from the latter, said connecting elements engaging in appropriately designed dome-shaped recesses 380 on the rear sides of the pumps 335, 335 '.
- other suitable connection means can also be used.
- the expansion tank 313 and the foamer 321 with the dispensing tube 326 are only shown schematically; they can have the same design as in FIGS. 1 to 4.
- FIG. 5 shows the two pumps 335 used to generate a pressure in the expansion tank 313 in the filled state; the pump 335 ', with which the amount of foam remaining in the dispensing tube 326 is blown out at the end of the dispensing process, is completely compressed before the actuation lever 339 begins to pivot in the direction of arrow F.
- the operating lever 339 is in the starting position. In FIG. 6, the operating lever 339 has been turned forwards by the operator, that is to say in a counterclockwise direction.
- the two pumps 335 responsible for the pressure build-up in the expansion tank 313 are now completely compressed and the pump 335 'used for blowing out is filled.
- lever 339 consists of two plates arranged to the side of the pumps 335, 335 'and therefore the axis A can be fastened on both sides of the housing 303.
- the lever 339 can therefore easily be made of plastic and with a small wall thickness inexpensively.
