Definitions
- the invention relates to a metering valve for the delivery of pressurized fluids, especially liquids, Pastes, creams, gels or the like, according to the generic term of claim 1.
- a metering valve for the delivery of pressurized fluids, especially liquids, Pastes, creams, gels or the like, according to the generic term of claim 1.
- Such a device is known for example from US-A-3 180 536.
- the present case it is a metering valve which is both a metered discharge and one continuous discharge of one in the container Fluids allowed.
- the aim of the present invention is a Dosing valve of this type to create which is permanent is reliable and in the transition area between Valve body and container interior without rubber seals or the like gets along.
- the invention Construction consists of only a few parts, namely one Valve body, the delivery tube and one of the delivery tube assigned plunger for controlled fluid connection between the discharge channel of the dispensing tube and the inside of the container. Due to this small number of components, the Construction according to the invention very simple in Manufactured and functionally safe to use, namely even after longer, d. H. storage periods of several years. Especially is important that the metering valve according to the invention is essentially constructed like a conventional aerosol valve, which has been well in practice for decades has proven. In implementing the present invention in accordingly, there are no problems in practice.
- Metering valve is for both metered and continuous delivery of a pressurized fluid determines which is within one in FIGS. 1 to 3 Can not shown container is located. Only in FIG. 1 is the edge 10 of a container opening shown, which is closed with a lid 11. Between the outer edge of the lid 11 and the A fluid seal 12 is arranged on the container opening edge 10. The interior of the container is indicated by reference number 13. As further shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, this includes Dosing valve a fluid-tight at the edge 14 in the lid 11 trained lid opening 15 attachable valve body 16, an axially displaceable in the valve body 16, from a Closed position according to FIG.
- Valve body 16 defines a fluid chamber 22 which is connected to the Container interior 13 via a valve body opening 23 and Riser 24 is in fluid communication.
- the Valve body opening 23 is in an intermediate position of the Dispensing tube 18 according to FIG. 2 for the discharge of one by the Volume of the fluid chamber 22 predetermined or metered Fluid flow interrupted.
- the in the fluid chamber 22 of the Valve body 16 extending end portion 25 of the Dispensing tube 18 is by one in the Valve body opening 23 extending plunger 26 extended.

- a second or effective in the closed position of the valve End portion 31 with an outer diameter that is smaller is as the inner diameter of the valve body opening 23, the axial position and the axial distance between the two Cross bores 29, 30 are dimensioned such that in the The intermediate position of the delivery tube 18 according to FIG. 2 Fluid connection between the interior of the container 13 and the fluid chamber 22 of the valve body 16 is interrupted.
- Dispensing tube 18 according to FIG. 3 is the Valve body opening 23 through the two transverse bores 29, 30 and the axial bore 28 connecting them to one another bridged a continuous fluid discharge.
- the valve body opening 23 faces radially inwards extending ring projection 32, the axial extent is less than the minimum distance between the two Cross bores 29, 30 in the plunger 26.
- an atomizer cap 33 with not shown Atomizer nozzle attached.
- On the one facing the container Inside of the atomizer cap 33 is one with the Container lid 11 cooperating first stop 34 for the intermediate position of the delivery tube 18 shown in FIG. 2 and a second cooperating with the container lid 11 Stop 35 for the end position of the delivery tube 18 for arranged a continuous discharge according to FIG. 3, namely molded on.
- the first stop 34 is under Application of a predetermined axial force in the direction of the Arrow 36 can be overcome, as shown in Fig. 3 is.
- the first stop 34 can be formed by at least two, preferably three on the inside of the atomizer cap 33 in the same angular distance from each other, approximately Webs extending parallel to the delivery tube 18 are formed be with an outer edge 37 of the container lid 11th for the definition of the intermediate position of the delivery tube 18 cooperate according to FIG. 2.
- Embodiment is the first stop by two diametrically defined partial ring webs for the delivery tube 18, while the second or radially inner stop by a continuously closed ring web is formed, which at the same time for receiving the part of the protruding from the cover 11 Dispensing tube 18 is used.
- the one facing the container lid Edge of the partial ring webs 38 is rounded on the inside to the to ensure the aforementioned radial expansion according to FIG. 3, as soon as a predetermined axial force in the direction of the arrow 36 on the atomizer cap 33 after reaching the Intermediate position according to FIG. 2 is applied.
- the lid edge cooperating with the first stop 34 is within the outer boundary of the cover 11 edge. This is formed by investing the Cover 11 on a peripheral flange 38 of valve body 16 such that the valve body 16 is firmly fixed on the cover 11 with the interposition of the ring seal already mentioned 19th
- the plunger 26 connected to the dispensing tube 18 has the illustrated embodiment with an annular flange 40 one of the ring seal 19 between the valve body 16 and Container lid 11 facing ring projection 41 for Establishing a fluid connection between ring seal 19 and dispensing tube 18.
- the ring flange 40 together Ring projection 41 is part of a pot-like section 42 of the Tappet 26, in which the inner end portion 25 of the Dispensing tube 18 is press fit.
- Fig. 1 shows the fluid chamber 22 with the container interior 13 in Fluid connection, namely through an annular gap between the End portion 31 of the plunger 26 and the annular projection 32 of the Container opening 23 through.
- Fig. 1 shows the metering valve in Closed position.
- Fig. 2 the fluid chamber 22 from the container interior 13 through separated the larger diameter portion 27 of the plunger 26.
- the container opening 23 is through the below the inside the transverse bore 30 located part of the first Tappet section 27 blocked.
- Fig. 2 there is Dispensing valve in the dosing position, d. H. in position to dosed discharge of the fluid in the fluid chamber. Accordingly, the dosage is determined by the volume of the Fluid chamber 22 in the valve body 16 determined.
- Fig. 3 the dispensing valve is in one position for a continuous fluid discharge from the Inside the container 13.
- the valve body opening 23 or its Ring projection 32 is through the two transverse bores 29, 30th and bridged axial bore 28, so that a permanent Fluid connection between the fluid chamber 22 and the Container interior 13 is made, via the Riser 24.
- Fluid seal 12 and the cover 11 are made of plastic.
- the aforementioned seals are preferably made of rubber or the same elastic sealing material.
- the lid 11 is preferably made of aluminum sheet, as is the Containers not shown.
