Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device and a method for attaching a dispensing member, such as a pump or a valve, to a neck of a container containing product to be dispensed.
  • a dispensing member such as a pump or a valve
  • Fixing a dispensing member on a container neck by means of a ring is known in the state of the art, and allows in particular to avoid crimping, facilitating the mounting of the device.
  • a snap type fixing ring is disposed on the body of a dispensing member and is snapped onto the neck of the container, generally by means of snap lugs provided for this purpose. A hoop is then fitted around said ring to hold it securely on the neck of the container.
  • the document US-4,773,553 discloses a fixing device in which a hoop is fitted around a ring by deforming material under the neck of the container.
  • the present invention aims to avoid this disadvantage by providing a fixing ring ensuring effective and secure fitting of said hoop.
  • the invention relates to a fastening device according to claim 1.
  • said fastening means are latching means, advantageously made in the form of tabs.
  • a fixing ring made according to the invention also has the advantage of allowing a pre-assembly of the hoop on the fixing ring.
  • the hoop is disposed on said ring around the crown before being delivered to the customer. The latter then only has to fill the container with the product of his choice and dispose the assembly formed of the dispensing member, the fixing ring and the hoop in the mounting unit.
  • the guide ring effectively prevents any separation of the hoop and the fixing ring during delivery, due to the vibrations of the transport, and ensures proper positioning of said hoop for fitting.
  • the guide ring therefore has an outside diameter approximately equal to the inside diameter of the hoop, allowing a setting of said hoop by sliding with friction, said friction preventing easy separation.
  • this problem is solved by providing a friction between the ring and the hoop greater than the snap resistance of the ring on the neck of the container.
  • the object of the present invention is to avoid these drawbacks by providing a snap ring and an easy-to-mold hoop, which can be assembled on the same mounting unit and provide effective mounting independently of dimensional tolerances, thereby reducing substantially the manufacturing costs of the product distributor.
  • the present invention further relates to a method of fixing a dispensing member on the neck of a container according to claim 14.
  • annular fixing ring for fixing a dispensing member on the neck of a container containing product to be dispensed.
  • Two possible variants of such a fixing ring are represented on the Figures 1 and 2 .
  • the fixing ring 10 has a lower portion intended to cooperate with the neck of the container and an upper portion for cooperating with the dispensing member.
  • the lower part comprises fixing means 12, 13 on said neck which can be latching means.
  • these latching means are latching lugs 12, preferably distributed around the circumference of the ring 10, and extending, in the direction of the central axis of the ring 10, downwards on the Figures 1 and 2 .
  • Each of these lugs 12 advantageously comprises at its lower end a detent pin 13 protruding from the inner surface of the ring and can move slightly under the effect of a sufficient force to pass over and then come snap under the neck of the container.
  • the lower part of the ring is connected to the upper part at a plate 11 which extends inwardly of the ring radially relative to the central axis of the ring, approximately perpendicular to said legs 12. Said flat It comes to rest either directly on the upper surface of the neck of the container, or on a seal which may be provided therein, or on a complementary surface of the dispenser member to secure it to the neck of the container.
  • the plate 11 may extend radially inside the ring by a turret 15 for securing a part of the dispenser member.
  • the plate 11 or the turret 15 which defines a central opening 16 for the passage of the dispensing member.
  • the upper part of the ratchet ring 10 further comprises an annular continuous guide ring 14 extending vertically in the direction of the central axis of the ring upwards in extension of the ratchet lugs. 12.
  • a device for fixing a dispensing member on the neck of a container containing product to be dispensed comprising said fixing ring 10 described above and a hoop coming to move around the legs 12 of said ring 10 to prevent the spacing of said tabs 12, and thus securely fix said ring 10, and therefore the dispensing member, on the neck of the container.
  • a product dispenser comprising a container 1 provided with a neck 2 and a dispensing member 3 comprising a body 4 extended by a dispensing head 5.
  • the container is generally made of glass or a plastic material and its collar is cylindrical.
  • the dispensing member 3 is generally a pump or a valve depending on the nature of the product to be dispensed, which may be of any consistency.
  • an annular fixing ring 10 is used as described above with reference to FIG. figure 1 which is placed on an upper portion 6 of the body 4 of the dispensing member 3.
  • the ring shown on the figure 2 or any other similar ring are examples of the ring shown on the figure 2 or any other similar ring.
  • the dispensing member 3 is held on said neck 2 by means of said plate 11 and said turret 15 having an opening 16 through which said dispensing head 5 passes.
  • the attachment or snap ring 10 includes an annular guide ring 14.
  • annular ring 14 On this annular ring 14 is placed an annular ring 20 intended to be force-fitted on said ring 10 to prevent the spacing of the detent tabs 12.
  • This band 20 has at its upper end an opening 23 for the passage of a plug 30 coming to be placed on the head 5 of the dispensing member 3.
  • the outer diameter of the guide ring 14 is substantially identical to the inside diameter of the side wall of the hoop 20.
  • the hoop 20 can slide with friction on said guide ring 14 to come into its premounting position, in which the assembly is then arranged in the assembly unit for final assembly.
  • the friction between the guide ring 14 and the hoop 20 prevents separation of these two elements during delivery.
  • the guide ring 14 extending substantially in extension of the latching lugs 12, a perfectly straight fitting of the hoop 20 around said latching lugs 12 is ensured.
  • the hoop 20 has on the inner face 21a of its annular side wall 21 at least one relief 22, 24 extending over a portion of the height of said side wall 21.
  • the inner diameter of the hoop 20 at said minus a relief 22, 24 is slightly smaller than the outside diameter of the ring 10.
  • said at least one relief 22, 24 can be implemented in the form of ribs or gadroons.
  • the outer surface 21 b of the band 20 remains perfectly cylindrical, which can be an aesthetic advantage.
  • the reliefs 22 extend vertically on the side wall 21.
  • the hoop 20 comprises a plurality of these reliefs 22 regularly distributed around the inner face 21a of said side wall 21, as visible on the Figures 5 and 6 .
  • these reliefs 22 extend from the upper end of said hoop 20 to at least half the height of said hoop 20 and are all identical.
  • said relief 22 consists of an annular shoulder extending horizontally over the entire circumference of the hoop 20.
  • the reliefs 24 extend obliquely on the lateral wall 21.
  • said at least one oblique relief 24 has an elongated shape to form an internal thread on the annular side wall 21 of the hoop 20.
  • This implementation is particularly interesting when the ring 10 is plastic and the metal ring 20. Indeed, the plastic material of the ring creeps, after a period of time which depends on the hardness of said plastic material, the shape of said at least one relief 24 of the hoop 20.
  • the inner face of the side wall 21 of the hoop 20 comprises a single relief 24.
  • this oblique relief extends approximately over a complete revolution of the circumference of the side wall 21. It is very clear in this case that the slope of said relief 24 is relatively small.
  • the inner face of the annular side wall of the hoop is provided with a plurality of parallel oblique reliefs 24 which are advantageously regularly distributed around the circumference of said side wall.
  • the fixing ring 10 is threaded around the head 5 of the dispensing member 3 and is fixed by its turret 15 on the upper part 6 of the body of the dispensing member 3.
  • the hoop 20 is then arranged around the annular ring of said fixing ring 10 and abuts, via the lower ends 22a of the reliefs 22, on the upper end of the annular ring 14 of the fixing ring 10.
  • the assembly consisting of the 3, the ring 10 and the hoop 20 is thus in its pre-engaged position shown on the figure 4a , in which it will be delivered to the customer. The latter then only has to fill the container with the product of its choice and to place said container 1 and said assembly 3, 10, 20 in a single mounting unit.
  • the body 4 of the dispensing member 3 is thus introduced into the neck of the container and the latching lugs 12 come to rest on the seal 7 disposed on the upper surface of the neck 2 of the container 1.
  • the assembly is then disposed in the mounting unit where a first vertical thrust force F1 is applied to the hoop 20.
  • the inner diameter of this hoop 20 at the reliefs 22 being smaller than the outer diameter of the fixing ring 10, said hoop does not can therefore slide more on said ring.
  • the force F1 is thus transmitted by the hoop 20 to the fastening ring 10, whose locking lugs 12 deviate under the effect of said force F1, which slides said ring on the neck of the container up to that the latching lugs 12 snap under said collar 2, as visible on the figure 4b .
  • the body 4 of the dispenser member 3 is then fixedly placed inside the container, the seal being provided by the annular seal 7.
  • a second vertical thrust force F2 is then applied to the hoop 20.
  • This second force F2 is greater than the first force F1 and is sufficient to force said hoop 20 against the fastener ring 10 by means of the reliefs 22.
  • the latching lugs 12 of the fixing ring 10 are then held in their locking position and can not move apart, which ensures the final fixing of the dispensing member 3 in the container, as visible on the figure 4c .
  • the difference required between the forces F1 and F2 depends on the radial thickness of the reliefs 22 of the hoop 20.
  • a sufficient radial thickness makes it possible to ensure effective assembly, even if the latching lugs 12 are, for manufacturing reasons. , a little less flexible than expected, which increases the resistance to snapping.
  • the press fitting thereof to the fixing ring 10, generally made of plastic, is possible despite the lower inner diameter of said hoop 20, at the level of the reliefs 22, with respect to the external diameter. of said ring 10, said reliefs 22 coming into the annular guide ring 14 of the fixing ring 10.
