Definitions

  • the invention relates to a refill cartridge for a Brushing a surface product-releasing pen, such as Glue stick, with a sleeve-shaped element, which is on both sides is sealable at one end and with one end for tight placement on a sleeve element of the pin is formed, wherein in the sleeve-shaped element against rotation guided a piston displaceable in the longitudinal direction is arranged with a threaded bore into which one the threaded spindle of the glue stick protruding from the sleeve element can be screwed in, the sleeve-shaped element is filled with a product mass which ends on Piston abuts and an extension of the threaded bore has through hole in which on the pin attached state of the refill cartridge the threaded spindle intervenes and a method for filling such Refill cartridge with initially flowable, then more solidified Product mass, in which in the bottom sealed refill cartridge equipped with the piston Product is poured.
  • a surface product-releasing pen such as Glue
  • Refill cartridges of this type and a corresponding procedure for filling the same are from DE 41 20 969 A1 the applicant and also known from DE 41 16 581 A1.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to create a solution with such a refill cartridge to simpler Way can be made or filled, with a flawless Sealing after filling must be guaranteed should.
  • This task is the beginning of a refill cartridge designated type solved according to the invention in that the sleeve-shaped element at the free end detachable with a sealing attached cap-shaped closure element closed is, the cap-shaped closure element on the inside a through hole of the product mass filling pen-like approach.
  • the refill cartridge is Manufacturing and filling on much easier Way possible. It can namely in the bottom side closed refill the product mass in liquid Form are filled, followed by the cap-shaped Closure element is placed sealingly, wherein the pen-like approach then in the still liquid state of the The desired through hole in the product Forms product mass.
  • the length of the pen-like Approach of course chosen so that a continuous Hole is created.
  • the pen-like approach is so long that the free end of the pin-like approach in completely put on State of the cap-shaped closure element in the threaded bore of the piston at least in some areas intervenes. This ensures that the threaded hole of the piston largely free of product mass is so that when using the refill cartridge on simple Way screwing in the threaded spindle of the pin is possible.
  • cap-shaped Closure element and / or the outer placement area of the sleeve-shaped element for the cap-shaped closure element provided with interacting circumferential locking means are designed such that before being run over the locking means the pin-like approach the product mass completely penetrated. In this way produce the desired continuous threaded hole in two stages, after filling for the purpose of air balance Cap with pin-like approach is initially loosely attached is, with a central centering of the pin-like Approach through the cap-shaped closure element and through dipping the tip of the pen-like approach into the Threaded area of the piston takes place.
  • cap-shaped closure element is particularly advantageous flexible and the pen-like approach is hard trained are on the one hand a good seal between the cap-shaped neck and the sleeve-shaped element to reach the refill cartridge and on the other hand a perfect one Penetration of the product mass by means of the pin-like Approach.
  • cap-shaped closure element and the pin-like approach two-part, detachably connectable.
  • the threaded hole of the piston and / or the associated opening in the bottom of the sleeve-shaped element with a protective film or the like. are closed.
  • the protective film or seals Thin out the refill cartridge in the bottom of the container off while the protective film in the area of the threaded hole of the piston prevents that when filling the liquid Of this product reach the area of the thread and can clog it.
  • the free end of the pen-like approach is pointed tapered, conical or stepped.
  • the sleeve-shaped element with at least one outside Longitudinal groove is provided.
  • This longitudinal groove takes part one provided on the inside of the sleeve element of the pin Bridge together and offers anti-twist protection like this is known from FIG. 6 of DE 41 16 581 A1.
  • the invention provides a solution to the problem set out at the beginning also a method for filling a previously described Refill cartridge with initially flowable, then solidifying Product mass before, in which in the bottom sealed refill cartridge equipped with the piston Product is poured in, this procedure distinguishes that after pouring the product before its solidification on the cap-shaped closure element put the corresponding end of the sleeve-shaped element is such that the pen-like approach is complete into the flowable product mass under drilling penetrates.
  • cap-shaped closure element initially so is placed far on the sleeve-shaped element that the free end of the pen-like approach only in the area the threaded hole of the piston protrudes and that after the The cap-shaped closure element solidifies the product mass completely sealed by driving over the locking means is placed on the sleeve-shaped element. This is then first an air balance during filling, i.e. a Escaping air to the outside is possible, which follows after solidification, a tight seal of the refill cartridge he follows.
  • a refill cartridge for one by brushing a surface donating pen is in the drawing generally designated 1.
  • This refill cartridge 1 is in the illustrated embodiment for refilling an adhesive stick provided, according to the Attaching or connecting a component with the glue stick of the glue stick, this glue stick is therefore overall, containing the refill cartridge 1, labeled 2.
  • an inventive one is suitable Refill cartridge also for other product pens, by painting a surface in a small amount Release product to the surface, e.g. it can also a deodorant, lip, release agent, shaving soap or Act colored pencil.
  • the following is however only on a glue stick or on an adhesive mass Referred.
  • the glue stick 2 has, apart from the refill cartridge 1, which is part of the glue stick 2, a sleeve element 3 with a closed bottom 4, which in a circumferential snap connection 5 for receiving a knurled nut 6 with the sleeve element 3 protruding upwards Threaded spindle 7 passes.
  • the sleeve element 3 expanded up towards its end, that area is designated 3a and has an internal thread 8 on the inside for fastening the corresponding end of the refill cartridge 1 on what the refill cartridge 1 with a corresponding External thread 9 is provided.
  • the refill cartridge 1 itself has a sleeve-shaped element 10 with a largely closed base 11, which is central with a thin point, a push-through point or the like. Which is 22 in FIG is designated.
  • a sleeve-shaped element 10 guided against rotation (which in individual is not shown), displaceable in the longitudinal direction Piston 12 is arranged with a threaded bore 13, wherein the threaded bore 13 with the external thread 14 of the threaded spindle 7 of the glue stick 1 corresponds.
  • Above the piston 12 is the sleeve-shaped element 10 of the refill cartridge 1 filled with an adhesive mass 15, wherein this adhesive mass 15 in the extension of the threaded bore 13 of the piston 12 is provided with a through bore 16 is.
  • the Refill cartridge 1 also has a cap-shaped closure element 17 on which from the outside to the free end of the sleeve-shaped element 10 can be placed. It is the cap-shaped closure element 17 on the inside with a provided pin-like approach 18, the length of which is chosen is that the free end 19 of the pin-like projection 18 in fully fitted state of the cap-shaped closure element 17 into the threaded bore 13 of the piston 12 intervenes at least in certain areas.
