Abstract

The invention relates to a stirrer lid for paint containers on paint mixing machines and to the process for manufacturing these lids. This stirrer lid for paint containers on mixing machines, of the type with a frustoconical closure edge, comprising a dome-shaped main body (5), fitted with a pouring lip (spout) and with a stirrer shaft in the middle, is characterised in that it has an annular ring (7) which is coaxially fixed to the base of the body and has a downward-tapering frustoconical cross-section, the said ring (7) forming the closure edge of the lid.

Description

La présente invention concerne les couvercles agitateurs pour boîtes de teintes équipant les machines d'agitation de peinture et, en particulier, un couvercle agitateur de type comportant à sa base un bord annulaire tronconique de fermeture,destiné à être appliqué serré sur le rebord supérieur correspondant d'ouverture des boîtes de teintes et qui puisse être adaptable aisément à la fermeture aux diverses boîtes de teintes existantes, lesquelles varient en conformation légèrement d'un constructeur à l'autre. Elle concerne également le procédé de fabrication de ces couvercles.The present invention relates to agitator covers for color boxes fitted to paint stirring machines and, in particular, to a type agitator cover having at its base a frustoconical annular closing edge, intended to be applied tight on the corresponding upper rim opening of the color boxes and which can be easily adapted to the closure to the various existing color boxes, which vary in conformation slightly from one manufacturer to another. It also relates to the method of manufacturing these covers.

On sait que les couvercles agitateurs de ce type permettent l'auto-centrage automatique sur les boîtes de teintes réceptrices, qu'ils permettent de rattraper les défauts du rebord de la boîte, l'ovale éventuel du rebord, par exemple, par l'effet de coincement à la fermeture, et enfin qu'ils assurent une fermeture rigide et permanente dans le temps, insensible aux vibrations de l'agitation, à la différence des couvercles à dispositif à joint souple.It is known that agitator lids of this type allow automatic self-centering on boxes of receptive colors, that they make it possible to make up for defects in the edge of the box, the possible oval of the edge, for example by jamming effect at closing, and finally that they ensure a rigid and permanent closure over time, insensitive to vibrations of agitation, unlike covers with a flexible seal device.

Ces couvercles agitateurs conviennent en particulier à l'agitation des boîtes de teintes montées suspendues sur les machines d'agitation mais peuvent également s'adapter sur les machines à boîtes posées. Ils sont issus de moulage en alliage métallique, de préférence en zamack, en une seule pièce, le rebord tronconique de fermeture faisant partie intégrante du corps du couvercle. Néanmoins, les dimensions du bord d'ouverture des boîtes, pour une gamme de contenance des boîtes déterminée (1, 3, 5 litres) varient légèrement selon leur origine. Le diamètre du bord d'ouverture des boîtes peut varier pour une même gamme de contenance, de 5 %, d'un constructeur à l'autre. On peut naturellement jouer sur la profondeur d'enfoncement du rebord tronconique du couvercle sur le bord de la boîte, venant s'appliquer sur l'une ou l'autre des ailes intérieure ou extérieure du rebord annulaire de la collerette portant le bord de fermeture de la boîte, ou sur son bourrelet terminal périphérique, mais ces différentes possibilités ne permettent qu'une adaptation limitée de fermeture aux diverses boîtes de peinture existant sur le marché.These agitator lids are suitable in particular for shaking boxes of colors mounted suspended on stirring machines but can also be adapted on machines with laid boxes. They come from molding in a metal alloy, preferably in zamack, in one piece, the frustoconical flange of closure forming an integral part of the body of the cover. However, the dimensions of the opening edge of the boxes, for a given range of box capacity (1, 3, 5 liters) vary slightly according to their origin. The diameter of the opening edge of the boxes can vary for the same capacity range, by 5%, from one manufacturer to another. One can naturally play on the depth of insertion of the frustoconical rim of the cover on the edge of the box, coming to be applied on one or the other of the inner or outer wings of the annular rim of the flange carrying the closing edge of the box, or on its peripheral end bead, but these different possibilities allow only a limited closure adaptation to the various paint boxes existing on the market.

L'adaptation de ce type de couvercle, à une série de boîtes de teinte déterminée, nécessite ainsi généralement la confection d'un couvercle spécifique dont le rebord tronconique est ajusté au bord particulier d'ouverture de ladite série. Cette confection requiert par conséquent le moulage complet d'une série de couvercles adaptée à ladite série de boîtes. Le changement de moule d'une série à l'autre nécessite un temps d'opération relativement important (plusieurs heures) en raison de la manutention importante des masses en jeu (plusieurs centaines de Kg) pour le moule du couvercle et sa mise en température et stabilisation en température avant moulage.The adaptation of this type of cover to a series of boxes of specific color thus generally requires the production of a specific cover whose frustoconical rim is adjusted to the particular opening edge of said series. This making therefore requires the complete molding of a series of covers adapted to said series of boxes. The change of mold from one series to another requires a relatively long operating time (several hours) due to the significant handling of the masses involved (several hundreds of Kg) for the mold of the cover and its setting in temperature. and temperature stabilization before molding.

L'invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients en proposant un couvercle agitateur, de type à bord tronconique, adaptable aux diverses boîtes de teintes existantes, dans une gamme de contenance donnée, et dont le procédé de fabrication nécessite un temps de confection notablement réduit, notamment pour le moulage d'une série de fabrication à une autre.The invention aims to remedy these drawbacks by proposing an agitator cover, of the frustoconical edge type, adaptable to the various existing tint boxes, in a given capacity range, and the manufacturing process of which requires a significantly reduced preparation time, especially for molding from one production series to another.

Le couvercle agitateur selon l'invention se caractérise en effet en ce qu'il comporte un corps principal et une bague annulaire de section tronconique fixée coaxialement à ce dernier sur sa base.The agitator cover according to the invention is in fact characterized in that it comprises a main body and an annular ring of frustoconical section fixed coaxially to the latter on its base.

Cette bague forme le rebord tronconique du couvercle. Elle est constituée en alliage métallique et présente une dureté et résistance mécanique adéquates pour assurer la fermeture en coincement sur le bord d'ouverture des boîtes. La pression de fermeture peut être assurée de façon classique par des cames de fixation solidaires du corps du couvercle et en prise sous la collerette du bord d'ouverture des boîtes, ou par des arceaux solidaires de la boîte et en prise sur le couvercle. Sa forme peut varier pour être adaptée au bord d'ouverture des diverses boîtes de teinte. Le corps principal du couvercle est maintenu inchangé pour une gamme de boîtes de contenance donnée.This ring forms the frustoconical edge of the cover. It is made of metal alloy and has an adequate hardness and mechanical resistance to ensure closing in wedge on the opening edge of the boxes. The closing pressure can be ensured in a conventional manner by fixing cams integral with the body of the cover and engaged under the flange of the opening edge of the boxes, or by arches integral with the box and engaged on the cover. Its shape can vary to be adapted to the opening edge of the various tint boxes. The main body of the lid is kept unchanged for a given range of capacity boxes.

Elle peut être fixée au couvercle par sertissage au moyen de redans inférieurs solidaires du corps du couvercle et, de préférence, par une collerette annulaire appliquée sur toute sa périphérie extérieure.It can be fixed to the cover by crimping by means of lower steps integral with the body of the cover and, preferably, by an annular flange applied over its entire outer periphery.

Elle peut également être rivetée sur le corps du couvercle.It can also be riveted to the body of the cover.

Cette bague peut être issue d'usinage mais elle est avantageusement moulée avec le corps du couvercle, à l'unité selon un cycle de moulage d'un couvercle, l'empreinte de moule de la bague et l'empreinte de moule du corps du couvercle étant alimentées simultanément avec le même matériau (zamack).This ring can come from machining but it is advantageously molded with the body of the cover, individually according to a molding cycle of a cover, the mold imprint of the ring and the mold imprint of the body of the cover being fed simultaneously with the same material (zamack).

A la sortie de moulage, la bague est ensuite assemblée sur le corps du couvercle et de préférence sertie par ladite collerette annulaire solidaire du corps, ceci au moyen d'une presse adéquate.At the outlet of molding, the ring is then assembled on the body of the cover and preferably crimped by said annular flange secured to the body, this by means of a suitable press.

Il en résulte que le passage de fabrication d'une série de couvercles à une autre (adaptées aux séries correspondantes de boîtes de teintes) nécessite uniquement le changement de l'empreinte de moule de la bague et non le changement complet du moule du couvercle selon l'état de la technique actuelle. Le changement de l'empreinte de la bague exige une manutention réduite relativement à celle du moule complet et le temps de montée et stabilisation en température est considérablement raccourci. Le gain de temps pour le passage d'une série de fabrication à une autre est de l'ordre de plusieurs heures.As a result, the transition from one series of covers to another (adapted to the corresponding series of shade boxes) requires only the change of the mold imprint of the ring and not the complete change of the mold of the cover according to the state of the art. The change of the imprint of the ring requires reduced handling relative to that of the complete mold and the time of rise and stabilization in temperature is considerably shortened. The time saved for switching from one production series to another is of the order of several hours.

Un exemple de réalisation de l'invention est à présent décrit en référence au dessin annexé, sur lequel :An exemplary embodiment of the invention is now described with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which:

La figure unique est une vue en coupe axiale partielle d'un couvercle agitateur selon l'invention.The single figure is a partial axial sectional view of an agitator cover according to the invention.

Sur le dessin, seuls les bords du couvercle 1 et de la boîte réceptrice 3 correspondante sont représentés. Le corps 5 du couvercle est classique, à forme générale de calotte comportant un bec verseur incorporé ainsi qu'un fourreau de passage axial de l'axe agitateur (non représentés). Il comporte à faible distance de son bord périphérique circulaire et sur sa base une bague annulaire 7 dont la partie inférieure utile 9 est de section tronconique effilée vers le bas. Cette bague est sertie au corps 5 du couvercle au moyen d'une collerette annulaire extérieure 11 prévue à la base du corps, et formée coaxialement à ce dernier. Cette collerette est appliquée sur la face avant de la bague. Elle est orientée légèrement vers l'intérieur relativement à la verticale de façon à verrouiller l'assemblage en empêchant tout mouvement de retrait.In the drawing, only the edges of the cover 1 and of the corresponding receiving box 3 are shown. The body 5 of the cover is conventional, generally in the form of cap comprising an incorporated pouring spout and a sheath for axial passage of the agitator axis (not shown). It has a short distance from its circular peripheral edge and on its base an annular ring 7 whose useful lower part 9 is of frustoconical section tapered downwards. This ring is crimped to the body 5 of the cover by means of an external annular flange 11 provided at the base of the body, and formed coaxially with the latter. This collar is applied to the front face of the ring. It is oriented slightly inward relative to the vertical so as to lock the assembly preventing any withdrawal movement.

A la fermeture de la boîte de teinte sous-jacente, comme indiqué sur la figure, le couvercle est appliqué en pression sur le rebord d'ouverture 13 de la boîte. La bague est alors coincée par sa face inférieure tronconique 9 sur le pli de rebord annulaire d'ouverture de la boîte. Le coincement est représenté dans le cas de la figure sur la face extérieure 15 du rebord annulaire d'ouverture de la boîte. Néanmoins, la fermeture et donc le coincement peuvent être opérés sur la face opposée intérieure 17 et éventuellement sur le bourrelet terminal annulaire d'ouverture 19. La conformation de la bague pour une boîte donnée, en relation avec le dimensionnement extérieur du corps du couvercle, tient compte de ces trois possibilités d'application à la fermeture. Par ailleurs, on joue sur l'enfoncement variable de la bague (mouvement vertical vers le bas) pour compenser les légères variations dimensionnelles des faces d'application en fonction des diverses boîtes à équiper. L'application en pression du couvercle sur la boîte est obtenue de façon classique au moyen de cames 21 solidaires du corps, à faible distance de sa périphérie, et en prise sous le rebord 13 de la boîte. Ces cames réparties régulièrement à la périphérie du corps assurent une mise en pression uniforme du couvercle sur la boîte.When the underlying color box is closed, as indicated in the figure, the cover is applied under pressure to the opening rim 13 of the box. The ring is then wedged by its frustoconical underside 9 on the fold of annular rim opening the box. The jamming is shown in the case of the figure on the outer face 15 of the annular rim of the opening of the box. Nevertheless, the closure and therefore the wedging can be carried out on the opposite inner face 17 and possibly on the annular terminal opening bead 19. The configuration of the ring for a given box, in relation to the external dimensioning of the body of the cover, takes into account these three possibilities of application at closure. In addition, we play on the variable sinking of the ring (vertical movement down) to compensate for the slight dimensional variations of the application faces according to the various boxes to be fitted. The pressure application of the cover to the box is obtained in a conventional manner by means of cams 21 secured to the body, a short distance from its periphery, and engaged under the rim 13 of the box. These cams distributed regularly around the periphery of the body ensure that the cover is pressurized uniformly on the box.

Ainsi que précité, la bague et le corps du couvercle sont issus de moulage en le même matériau métallique et de préférence en zamack. Le moule façonné pour une série de fabrication donnée comporte une empreinte de corps du couvercle et une empreinte de bague. L'empreinte de corps ne change pas dans une gamme de contenance donnée (1, 3 et 5 litres). Seule change l'empreinte de la bague en fonction des diverses séries de fabrication des couvercles en relation avec les boîtes à équiper. L'empreinte de corps et l'empreinte de la bague sont alimentées simultanément en matériau de moulage et dès que les pièces de corps et de bague sont réalisées, elles sont acheminées à un outillage de presse où la collerette annulaire 11 de sertissage de la bague est repoussée d'un coup de presse sur la face avant circulaire de la bague, préalablement positionnée sur la base du corps du couvercle. La bague est alors parfaitement solidarisée au corps du couvercle.As mentioned above, the ring and the body of the cover are produced by molding in the same metallic material and preferably in zamack. The mold molded for a given production series includes a cover body imprint and a ring imprint. The body imprint does not change in a given capacity range (1, 3 and 5 liters). The only change is the imprint of the ring according to the various series of manufacturing of the covers in relation to the boxes to be fitted. The body impression and the ring impression are fed simultaneously with molding material and as soon as the body and ring parts are produced, they are sent to a press tool where the annular flange 11 for crimping the ring is pushed back with a press stroke on the circular front face of the ring, previously positioned on the base of the cover body. The ring is then perfectly secured to the body of the cover.

On notera encore à titre de variante que la bague selon l'invention peut éventuellement servir de support à un joint de fermeture interposé entre cette bague et le rebord de boîte, ce joint étant reçu dans un logement adéquat, par exemple une gorge, formée sur la bague, le joint pouvant varier selon la conformation des boîtes.It will also be noted, as a variant, that the ring according to the invention can optionally serve as a support for a closure gasket interposed between this ring and the box flange, this gasket being received in a suitable housing, for example a groove, formed on the ring, the seal being able to vary according to the conformation of the boxes.
