Definitions
- the present invention relates to a spray nozzle intended to be mounted on an outlet channel of a fluid product distribution device for dividing said fluid product into fine droplets.
- Certain fluid products such as perfumes for example, are preferably distributed in vaporized or sprayed form to increase the dispersion of the product and avoid too localized application.
- a spray nozzle is used mounted on the outlet channel of the dispensing device which in general is a pump or a valve.
- the spray nozzles are most often integrated into the push button of the pump or of the valve, in which case they move vertically when the device is actuated. They can also be integral with a part of the device which remains static during actuation.
- Figures 1 to 4 illustrate a conventional spray nozzle of the prior art integrated into a push button 100.
- Figure 1 is a front view of the nozzle, while the nozzle has been removed to reveal the interior nozzle.
- the push button 100 is in the form of a small cylinder closed at its upper end by an ergonomic curved surface 118 suitable for the application of a finger.
- the cylinder is made with a cylindrical housing 110 which is partially filled by a cylindrical core 111 which extends horizontally to the center of the housing 110.
- An annular space 114 is thus created between the cylindrical internal wall of the housing 110 and the core 111
- a window 112 communicates the annular space 114 with an internal channel 117, as can be seen in FIGS. 2 and 3.
- the internal channel 117 receives the end of a hollow actuating rod 103.
- the core 111 has a smooth front surface 119.
- a nozzle 102 is forcibly fitted onto the core 111, as can be seen in FIG. 3.
- the nozzle 102 is in the form of a small cup, the bottom of which is pierced with a orifice 121, said to be spraying.
- the nozzle therefore comprises a bottom and an annular skirt 122 which is forcibly engaged in the annular space 114 (FIG. 1).
- the internal wall of the skirt is made with three feed channels 113 distributed angularly and extending over the entire height of the skirt 122.
- the skirt does not come into contact with the bottom of the annular space 114 so that it there is an annular passage 115 which communicates the window with the supply channels 113 (fig. 3).
- the bottom of the nozzle 102 has a structured internal wall 129 in which are formed three swirl channels 125 and a swirl chamber 124 centered on the spray orifice 121 (FIG. 4).
- the swirl channels and the swirl chamber are completed by the waterproof application of the internal surface 129 of the nozzle against the smooth front surface 119 of the core.
- the swirl channels are thus isolated from each other.
- the three swirl channels 125 are each in communication with one of the three supply channels 113.
- the fluid product distributed by the pump or the valve therefore flows through the hollow rod 103, the internal channel 117, the window 112, the annular passage 115, the three supply channels, the three swirl channels, the swirl chamber and the spray orifice.
- the object of the present invention is to reduce the height of the nozzle, which makes it possible to reduce the total height of the dispensing device.
- the present invention has for its object a spray nozzle intended to be mounted on an outlet channel of a fluid product distribution device for dividing said fluid product into fine droplets, said nozzle comprising a core and a nozzle defining assembly: a swirl chamber which communicates with the outside via a spray orifice formed in said nozzle, and several swirl channels which open into the swirl chamber in a non-radial manner, the nozzle having an oblong shape the major longitudinal axis of which extends in a horizontal plane.
- This embodiment has the result of reducing the height of the nozzle: while a conventional nozzle fits in a circle as we could see with reference to Figure 1, the nozzle according to the invention fits in the same circle, but only with its long longitudinal axis lying. Consequently, the nozzle is much lower than a conventional nozzle, which makes it possible to reduce the height of the part in which it is formed or integrated, such as a push button.
- this problem is solved by advantageously providing that the swirl channels communicate with the outlet channel of the spraying device by means of several symmetrical supply conduits, to each of the swirl channels corresponding to one supply, so that all of the swirl channels are supplied with fluid equally.
- the supply conduits are two in number, extending on either side of the core in a horizontal plane.
- a reduction in height is possible, while ensuring a perfectly balanced supply of the swirl channels.
- a reduced size nozzle is produced, having in addition an improved dynamic behavior.
- the contact surface of the fluid on the nozzle is also reduced.
- the nozzle no longer needs to be fitted with as great a force as in the prior art.
- the nozzle must resist a pressure of 30J0 5 Pa, while for a nozzle according to the invention, a pressure of 12 to 15J0 5 Pa is sufficient. It is therefore simpler to hang a nozzle according to the invention, since the attachment means do not need to withstand high pressures.
- the spraying of the fluid product is obtained thanks to the vortex which is created in the swirl chamber, owing to the fact that the swirl channels open into the chamber in a non-radial manner.
- the fluid product therefore undergoes a vortex movement in the chamber which generates a centrifugal acceleration before exiting through the spray orifice which is perfectly centered on the vortex eye.
- the emitted fluid product is then distributed in the atmosphere with a conical dispersion.
- the spray orifice is perfectly centered on the eye of the vortex, otherwise the fluid will be distributed with large droplets, because it is in the eye of the vortex that the acceleration is greatest . It is therefore necessary that the nozzle is molded with great precision, so that the swirl chamber is exactly centered on the spray orifice.
- the swirl channels must also be molded very precisely, as well as the feed channels. The nozzle therefore constitutes a high-precision part.
- the fitting of the nozzle onto the core must also be carried out with great precision.
- said swirl channels and at least part of the swirl chamber are formed in a front wall of the core, the nozzle having an inner wall in tight contact with said front wall of the core to isolate the swirl channels from each other.
- the nozzle forms part of the swirl chamber.
- the swirl chamber therefore consists of two parts, one formed in the front wall of the core and the other in the nozzle.
- the part formed in the nozzle corresponds to that where the eye of the vortex is formed. It has been noted that, even if the two chamber parts are not exactly aligned, the eye of the vortex will still form centered on the spray orifice, provided of course that the spray orifice is perfectly centered relative to the chamber part formed in the nozzle. If the two parts are not perfectly aligned, the vortex will simply be slightly deformed, but its acceleration properties will remain intact. It is therefore the part of the chamber formed in the nozzle which determines the position of formation of the vortex eye.
- the nozzle has a symmetry with respect to a plane extending perpendicular to the axis passing through the spray orifice, so that the nozzle has two identical faces thus making it reversible.
- the nozzle is then simply in the form of an oblong patch pierced with a central hole formed between two symmetrical cylindrical recesses which define the two parts of the swirl chamber.
- the nozzle does not include an annular skirt as is the case in the prior art. This therefore results in a considerable simplification of the nozzle which offers advantages at different levels.
- the nozzle is reversible due to its symmetry, which simplifies the orientation of the nozzle when it is mounted on the core.
- the nozzle requires less material due to its small size and the absence of an annular skirt.
- it is easier to mold with a mold in two identical parts.
- the symmetrical chamber parts with the centered spray orifice are easier to produce, because the spindle required for molding is shorter, which increases its precision. It is therefore possible to mold a nozzle according to the invention with great precision using a spindle which is easier to handle.
- the nozzle is received hermetically in a housing containing the supply conduits and the core, said nozzle being provided on its periphery in contact with said housing with a sealing bead which bites into the material of said housing .
- the nozzle is therefore forcibly engaged in the housing and is held there by a kind of harpoon effect.
- said nozzle has a peripheral penetration chamfer to facilitate mounting of said nozzle in said housing. During assembly, the nozzle does not need to be brought perfectly centered towards the housing. If this is not the case, the penetration chamfers will automatically center the nozzle on its housing.
- the output channel of the spray has a crenellated free end which communicates with the nozzle supply conduits. There is therefore no need to provide any arrangement at the nozzle to allow the fluid to flow out of the outlet channel. This also further reduces the height of the nozzle.
- the nozzle can be an integral part of a push button mounted on a hollow actuating rod defining the outlet channel.
- FIG. 1 is a front view of a push button incorporating a spray nozzle of the prior art, the nozzle of the nozzle having been removed in order to reveal the interior of the nozzle
- - Figure 2 is a view in vertical section through the push button and the nozzle of the prior art of FIG. 1,
- FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of the spray nozzle of FIGS. 1 and 2 with the nozzle in place
- FIG. 4 is a top view of the nozzle of Figure 3

- FIG. 4 is a top view of the nozzle of Figure 3

- FIG. 5 is a front view of a push button incorporating a spray nozzle produced according to the present invention, the nozzle of the nozzle having been removed to see the interior of the nozzle.
- FIG. 6 is a view in vertical section of the push button and of the nozzle according to the invention of FIG. 5,
- FIG. 7 is a view in horizontal section of the push button and of the nozzle according to the invention of FIG. 5, with the nozzle in place,
- FIGS. 8 to 10 are enlarged views of the nozzle according to the invention, respectively from the front, in profile and in section.
- the push button is designated in this example by the reference numeral 1. It is intended to be fitted on an outlet channel such as a hollow actuating rod 3 of a dispensing of fluid product such as a pump or a valve.
- the spray nozzle produced according to an embodiment of the invention is integrated into the push button 1, as is usually the case.
- the spray nozzle which will now be described in detail can just as easily be integrated in another element of a spraying device incorporating an outlet channel.
- the invention relates to the very structure of the nozzle and not to its arrangement with respect to the dispensing device.
- the embodiment chosen to illustrate the invention implements the spray nozzle in a generally conventional push button.
- the push button 1 is in the form of a small hollow cylinder closed at its upper end by a surface 18 adapted to receive a pressure exerted by a finger for example.
- the push button 1 comprises on its cylindrical part an oblong housing 10 in which is received a nozzle of corresponding shape.
- Figures 5 and 6 show the push button with the nozzle removed to reveal the interior of the oblong housing 10.
- This contains a core 11 which partially fills said housing 10 and two conduits 12 and 13 said supply which s '' push into the push button on either side of the core, extending parallel in a horizontal plane, when the surface 18 is directed upwards, as represented in FIGS. 5 and 6.
- the core is surrounded by an annular passage (see 114, fig.
- the core no longer constitutes a protruding lug surrounded by an annular space, but is directly connected by its upper and lower parts to the constituent mass of the push button 1, as can be seen in FIGS. 5 and 6.
- the core no longer projects free way forward, but literally part of the push button. In a way, the core constitutes a separation wall for the two supply conduits 12, 13.
- the core 11 extends radially towards the inside of the push-button and ends just before opening into the internal channel 17 in which the actuating rod 3 is mounted.
- the latter has an open upper end 30 which is produced with a notch whose points are in abutment against the upper wall of the internal channel which also defines part of the thrust surface 18. Thanks to this notch, the fluid product can flow out of the actuating rod 3 without it being necessary to provide any means at the upper wall of the internal channel 17 to prevent the open upper end 30 of the rod 3 from being in leaktight contact with the upper wall of the internal channel 17, which would prevent the flow of the fluid product. We thus gain in height since the. actuating rod 3 penetrates as far as possible into the push-button 1. It should be noted that thanks to this particular arrangement of the supply conduits 12,
- the two supply conduits 12, 13 of the invention have much larger sections .
- the window 112 Fig. 1 was a cause of a large pressure drop just before the supply channels 113.
- the core 11 has an end end wall 19 which is slightly pressed into the housing 10 by about 1 millimeter.
- This wall 19 is not planar, but incorporates a part of the swirl chamber 14 and two swirl channels 15 and 16 which open with one of their ends into the swirl chamber 14 in a non-radial manner and with the other of their ends respectively in each of the supply conduits, as visible in FIG. 5. While it is normally usual to mold the chamber and the swirl channels in the nozzle, according to the present invention, these are molded in the front wall of the core 11.
- the spindle used in the mold suitable for molding such a nozzle is of a relatively simple design.
- this spindle comprises two branches corresponding to the supply conduits 12 and 13 connected together by a bridge in which the negative of the chamber and of the swirl channels is machined, for example by electro-erosion.
- the branches of the spindle extend into the internal channel 17 which is formed by another cylindrical spindle whose upper end is inserted between the two branches of the core spindle.
- the core has a substantially trapezoidal shape to favor the engagement and disengagement of the pin of the internal channel respectively in and out of the branches of the pin of the core.
- the swirl channels since they each communicate with a supply duct, are perfectly symmetrical with respect to the swirl chamber and will therefore be supplied with fluid in an identical manner. This is a particularly advantageous characteristic, because it ensures perfect formation of the vortex in the swirl chamber.
- the nozzle part such as described also requires the addition of a nozzle which is designated as a whole by the reference numeral 2 in FIGS. 6 to 10. Reference will be made more particularly to FIGS. 7 to 10 to explain its structure and its function, because it represents it enlarged.
- the nozzle 2 corresponding to the shape of the housing 10 in which it is received, is oblong, in this case wider than it is high.
- the nozzle has a width of approximately 3 millimeters for a height of approximately 1 millimeter. These sizes cannot be limiting.
- the nozzle is in the form of an oblong grain pierced d 'a central orifice 21, said spray.
- the spray orifice is formed between two symmetrical, substantially cylindrical recesses which it communicates and which each define a part of the swirl chamber 24 complementary to the part of the chamber 14 formed in the core 11.
- the nozzle is symmetrical with respect to a vertical plane perpendicular to the axis passing through the center of the spray orifice and in which the longitudinal axis of the nozzle is contained.
- This plane therefore passes between the two parts of the swirl chamber 24, and thus makes the nozzle reversible, which explains the doubling of the complementary part 24 of the swirl chamber.
- Only one of the complementary chamber parts 24 will fulfill the function for which it is intended, the other then serving only as an exhaust nozzle.
- This reversibility of the nozzle eliminates a prior operation of orientation of the nozzle before mounting on the push button. This eliminates a baffle in the bowl used to orient the nozzle in the assembly line.
- the technique preferably used is the engagement of force with material interference.
- the nozzle is provided on its outer oblong periphery with a sealing bead 22 which gives the nozzle an oversizing with respect to the housing 10.
- POM polyoxymethylene
- the cord 22 will bite into the internal wall of the housing by deformation of material.
- the nozzle is formed with penetration chamfers which allow the nozzle to be automatically centered on its housing.
- the nozzle is in contact by one of its faces 29, incorporating a part of the swirl chamber 24, with the front wall 19 of the core incorporating the chamber 14 and the channels 15, 16.
- the contact between the face 29 and the front wall 19 is sealed, so that the swirl channels are isolated from each other between the complete swirl chamber 14, 24 and the respective supply conduits 12, 13.
- the front wall 19 of the core extends vertically when the nozzle is held straight.
- the nozzle would be fitted obliquely, so that the jet would be sprayed with an angle of diffusion relative to the horizontal.
- the fluid reservoir must remain oriented vertically, while the spray of sprayed product must be directed upwards with a predetermined diffusion angle.
- the swirl chamber which is traditionally formed only in the nozzle consists here of two parts formed respectively one in the core and the other in the nozzle. This division into two parts does not cause any complications in the formation of the vortex in the swirl chamber, since it has been noticed that the eye of the vortex always forms in the center of the spray orifice, provided that the part of the nozzle chamber is well centered. In other words, the eye of the vortex forms in the spray orifice even if the two chamber parts are not perfectly aligned. Precision during molding must therefore be worn on the nozzle. However, it is much simpler to mold a flat nozzle (without an annular skirt 122; FIG. 3) which is moreover perfectly symmetrical.
- the necessary mold only consists of two identical parts, each incorporating a spindle for the formation of the parts of the swirl chamber 24 and of the spray orifice.
- the two pins required are extremely short and it is known that the molding precision is greater the shorter the pins. Therefore, increased molding accuracy is achieved without using more precise pins.
- the nozzle is easily moldable with a minimum of material, using a very simple mold in two parts. It is also easy to mount on the push button because of its reversibility and the decrease in pressure exerted on it.
- the nozzle has a bearing surface which is more than twice less than that of a conventional nozzle, the force which is exerted on it is also more than twice less, since the force is proportional to the bearing surface.
- Less efficient attachment means can therefore be used to insert the nozzle into the housing 10, the means described constituting only a preferred form.
