Definitions

  • the invention relates to a discharge apparatus for flowable media having a basic body for receiving a medium reservoir and a thrust piston pump, which has a pump piston displaceably in a piston between a starting position and a pump stroke end position, as well as a pump chamber connected to a discharge opening of the apparatus by means of a discharge channel and defined by a pump cylinder also forming the medium reservoir and containing the pump piston.
  • WO 91/13689 shows a discharge apparatus for single use in partial strokes according to the generic part of claims 1, 12 and 14.
  • This construction ensures that e.g. on atomizing the medium the pressure from the first instant is sufficient for atomization purposes and that the pump is actuated up to its end, i.e. performs the complete stroke and the entire content of its medium reservoir, which simultaneously forms the pump cylinder, is discharged in one or two strokes.
  • Such single or double dosing or proportioning devices are advantageous for the dispensing of medicaments, which are particularly critical with respect to proportioning, contamination, preservation or other criteria.
  • WO 92/00812 of the applicant also discloses the use of medium reservoirs for a single discharge stroke, which are sealed by a plug simultaneously serving as the piston, the plug being perforated by a needle for actuation purposes.
  • the medium reservoir is received in a sleeve, which has external projections and which cooperate with corresponding projections on the inside of a casing basic body in the manner of a snap fastening. On actuation it is firstly necessary to overcome the static friction, before said beads slide on the faces against which they engage, so that a pressure point must be overcome.
  • the object of the invention is to so further develop such a discharge apparatus in particular with a view to preventing an accidental double use or incomplete actuation, whilst avoiding the resulting contamination or proportioning problems.
  • the tamper-evident closure according to the invention can in an embodiment of the invention be formed by at least one material bridge between at least one pump portion movable with the pump cylinder and a casing portion connected to the basic body.
  • the material bridge is advantageously formed by a one-piece construction of the casing and pump portions.
  • a predetermined breaking point is created between the mutually movable parts of the discharge apparatus, whose intactness is a sure sign that the charge of filling of the medium reservoir is unopened and unused.
  • the user can establish this e.g. optically or by a slight turning of the actuating part.
  • To facilitate checking window cutouts can be provided or parts of the pump can be made from transparent material. It is also possible to use a plastics material, which discolours in the case of a breaking deformation. Marks on the movable portion and the casing would also be possible.
  • the material bridge is preferably formed between an actuating sleeve retaining and optionally partly receiving the pump cylinder serving as the medium reservoir and an inner portion of a base casing part provided with actuating shoulders.
  • the actuating shoulders serve as a support for two fingers, the thumb pressing on the actuating sleeve.
  • An adequate force can be applied in order to shear or tear off the material portion. As a result of the force applied simultaneously an adequate actuating force is produced for a reliable actuation of the pump.
  • the material bridges can e.g. be provided on the outer circumference of the actuating sleeve and between the latter and a ring surrounding said sleeve, which is in turn fixed to the facing part, i.e. to the casing, by snapping in. This makes it possible to manufacture the actuating sleeve separately from the casing.
  • the material bridges could also be shaped onto the casing and the circular fastening element could be fixed to the facing, movable part, the pump cylinder or the actuating sleeve, by engagement or in some other way.
  • the element which is shaped onto the pump part via the material bridges encloses a projection of the housing from the outside.
  • the element covers the connecting gap between the pump part and the housing completely and provides not only an optical and functional merge between pump part and housing but prevents also every possibility of manipulation of the tamper-evident connection.
  • the snap-in connection is secured against drawing off, such that it is destroyed if someone tries to draw off the pump cylinder from the housing.
  • the material bridges and the tamper-evident closure shall break.
  • the element is a ring with a L-shaped cross section consisting of a substantially radial bottom ring part and an adjacent jacket.
  • the inside of the jacket is preferably provided with a snap profile. This snap profile can cooperate with a correspondingly shaped profile at the ring or ring segment shaped projection in snap acting manner.
  • fig. 1 to 5 show, for better understanding, a predecessor design of the present invention in order to explain some basic feature used in the present invention, namely
  • the discharge apparatus 11 shown in Fig. 1 has a two-part basic body 12. It contains a base casing part 13, which has an epaulette-like shape with two actuating shoulders 14 and a jacket 15 connected thereto.
  • the base casing part is flat or flat-oval and has its greatest extension in the drawing plane, whereas it has smaller dimensions transversely thereto.
  • the jacket 15 is longer on the right and left-hand sides in Fig. 1 and has on its two sides roughly parallel to the drawing plane a cutout 16, which is open to the bottom.
  • actuating sleeve 17 On the base casing part 13 is injection moulded in one piece an actuating sleeve 17, namely on the lower, inside of a connector 18 projecting upwards from the part 13.
  • the gap 20 between the outer edge of an upper flange 21 of the actuating sleeve 17 and an inner flange projection 22 in the interior of the connector 18 is bridged in the represented embodiment by three thin connecting webs, which have a triangular shape and whose tip is shaped on the web 22, so as to form predetermined breaking points.
  • the actuating sleeve 17 has inner ribs 24, which roughly take up 3/4 of the length of the sleeve, considered from its bottom 25.
  • a pump cylinder 27 which has the shape of a roughly cylindrical, bottom closed sleeve made from glass and having an upper side flange 28. It simultaneously forms the reservoir for the medium 29 to be discharged and the pump cylinder.
  • Its inner circumferential surface consequently forms the piston runway 30 for a piston 31, which is constructed in the form of a rubber or similar elastic material piston plug.
  • the piston plug 31 is located on the hermetically sealed medium 29. Filling takes place with or without air inclusions.
  • the pump cylinder is inserted with slight pressure in the upper part of the actuating sleeve and extends with its largest part over and beyond the actuating shoulders 14 through the connector 18 and into a connector portion 34, which can also be constructed as an adaptor. It is a finger-like portion, which has a substantially cylindrical or slightly conical shaft with an upper, spherical rounding running in the direction of the pump axis 35. In the centre of said rounding is provided the discharge opening 36 in the form of a conventional spray nozzle. However, the discharge opening could also be provided for some other discharge form, e.g.
  • the connector portion 34 for a dosed delivery of a liquid or pasty medium, or could have other shapes, so as to permit better adaptation of the delivery to the shape of any body opening. Therefore it is also advantageous to manufacture the connector portion 34 separately from the base casing part and is fixed thereto by a snap fastening 37 with e.g. three tabs engaging in openings and provided with a barb-like head, the connector portion being centred on the connector 18. In order to prevent a removal of the connector portion 34, the snap fastening can be constructed in self-locking manner. A protective sleeve 38 protects the connector portion against contamination.
  • a piston rod portion 39 which has an inner discharge channel 40 and is inserted in the sleeve 41 shaped inwards on the upper end of the connector portion 34.
  • a ram 42 in the form of a downwardly inclined cut-off, hollow steel needle, e.g. by injecting or pressing into an opening provided with corresponding retaining ribs.
  • the piston plug 31 made from rubbery materials and the glass pump cylinder/medium reservoir, all pump parts are plastic injection mouldings.
  • the pump cylinder 27 is inserted from above in the receptacle 43 formed in the actuating sleeve 17. Said cylinder 27 contains the medium 29 tightly sealed through the piston plug 31.
  • the discharge apparatus is assembled.
  • the discharge apparatus is taken up between three fingers, two fingers resting on the shoulders 14 and the thumb on the bottom 25 of the actuating sleeve 17. The thumb engages in the window-like cutout 16 and consequently has an adequate actuating clearance.
  • the discharge opening 36 is directed onto the corresponding point and by a powerful pressure on the actuating sleeve the actuating pressure is built up to such an extent that the predetermined breaking points formed by the material bridges 9 tear or shear and the actuating sleeve can be moved upwards together with the pump cylinder.
  • powerful pressure build-up this takes place with a high speed, which ensures a speedy performance of the discharge stroke taking place.
  • the pump cylinder is moved upwards against the ram 42, so that the latter pieces the central web 32 of the piston plug, but as a result of the elasticity of the piston plug material is immediately resealed on the outer face.
  • the medium Only through the inner channel of the ram constructed as a hollow needle can the medium escape upwards through the discharge channel 40 and the discharge opening 36 and is delivered there in sprayed or correspondingly proportioned manner.
  • the lower edge of the piston rod portion 39 can engage on the upper face of the piston plug 31 and consequently produce a direct pressure connection with the piston, which runs downwards along the piston runway 30 and conveys the medium to the discharge opening.
  • the length of the needle should be such that it does not project over the lower boundary of the piston plug 31, so that an almost complete discharge of the in certain circumstances very expensive medium is ensured.
  • the discharge apparatus offers a possibility of discharging sensitive and expensive materials in a planned and precisely dosed manner.
  • the apparatus is simple to manufacture and fit, whilst can easily be adapted to different circumstances, e.g. by different adaptor shapes.
  • the unit comprising the pump cylinder 27 and actuating sleeve is loose and can optionally be drawn out in the downwards direction.
  • the pump cylinder 27 with the pump plug 31 can be removed, so that the remainder, with the exception of the small needle, is made from one type of material, optionally plastic and can be correspondingly disposed of.
  • Fig. 5 shows in longitudinal section a detail of an embodiment, in which the casing 13 and connector portion 34, are constructed in one piece.
  • the same reference numerals are used for the same parts and reference is made to the previous description of said parts and their function.
  • a fastening element 60 in the form of an all-round ring with a L-shaped cross-section. It is connected to the actuating sleeve 17 by several material bridges 19, which are so constructed and dimensioned, that they tear away under the actuating pressure and consequently separate the ring from the actuating sleeve.
  • the fastening element 60, actuating sleeve 17 and material bridges 19 are injection moulded from plastic in one piece.
  • the fastening element 60 is fixed to the casing 13 by a snap connection 61.
  • the fastening element is centred with its axial leg on the inside of the connector portion 35, whereas the outwardly directed leg latches in a depression at the transition between the actuating shoulder 14 and the connector portion 34.
  • the actuating sleeve is introduced together with the container 27 forming the pump cylinder.
  • An assembly tool can press the lower engagement face 63 of the actuating element 60 in Fig. 5, so that engagement of the latching connection 61 takes place without any risk of damage to the tamper-evident closure formed by the material bridges 19.
  • the material bridges 19 tear and the actuating sleeve, together with the pump cylinder/container 27, can perform the pump stroke in the previously described manner.
  • the actuating sleeve 17 is guided on the one hand in the circular fastening element 60 (between the torn off material bridges) and on the other on the inner webs 62 of the connector portion 34.
  • An outer flange of the container/pump cylinder 27 is also guided in this way, which prevents tilting of the actuating means.
  • the material bridges 19 can also be constructed as split or through film connections.
  • the fastening element 60 has a certain amount of axial and radial clearance in the latching connection 61. This makes it possible to intentionally or unintentionally turn the actuating sleeve 17 without destroying the tamper-evident closure.
  • the latching connection must be sufficiently strong that on drawing off the actuating sleeve 17 in the downwards direction the tamper-evident closure tears. This ensures that there have been no undesired manipulation of the content of the proportioning device.
  • Figs. 6 and 7 show a prefered embodiment which has the same structural and functional features as the embodiment of Fig. 5.
  • the same reference numerals are used for the same parts and reference is made to previous description of those parts and their function.
  • the element 60 which is connected to the actuating sleeve 17 by the material bridges 19, is a ring with an L-shaped cross section. Accordingly it has a bottom ring 70 which has at its inner side the material bridges 19 connecting the bottom ring 70 integrally with the actuating sleeve 17.
  • a jacket 71 Parallel and concentric with the actuating sleeve 17 is a jacket 71.
  • a snap profile 72 which can e.g. consist of a barbed ring projection (see the enlarged detail in the dash-dotted circle in Fig. 7).
  • the element 60 covers a housing projection 61, which is ring-shaped and surrounds the middle housing opening 74, in which the pump cylinder 27 and its actuating sleeve 17 is contained.
  • the projection 61 projects from the housing 13 to below.
  • the projection 61 can have a ring or tubular shape or be in the shape of several segments arranged in ring-shaped manner. At its outside it has a counter profile 63 matching to the snap profile 72 of the jacket.
  • Fig. 5 While in the embodiment of Fig. 5 the housing has a housing jacket 15 projecting to below, the embodiment of Figs. 6 and 7 provides actuating shoulders 14 having the shape of flat housing projection (Fig. 7) projecting laterally far past the main portion 34 of the housing in two opposite directions. It has a generally oval shape. It enables a safe grip of the apparatus between two fingers when pressing the thumb on the lower bottom 25 of the actuating sleeve. Ribs 65 which are to be seen from Fig. 7 in the in shape provide good grip and stiffening, especially by a peripheral edge rib 77 projecting to above.
  • the lower surface of the actuating shoulder 14 can be used for attaching markings, for instance batch numbers.
  • the actuating sleeve 17 can also be used for lables or other visual marks.
  • a second ring-shaped element 76 At the outer circumference of the actuating sleeve 17 there is provided a second ring-shaped element 76 at the distance a from the lower surface 63 of element 70. Like element 70, the second element 76 is also moulded in one piece with the actuating sleeve via material bridges 19b which may be of the kind as shown in Figs. 2 to 4. They may however be somewhat stronger than those of element 60.
  • This embodiment provides a double stroke discharge device, i.e. a discharge or spray device which is able to discharge two exactly proportioned charges after each other.
  • the ring-shaped element 76 terminates the operation after the first part of the stroke equivalent to the distance a . At this end of this part of the stroke the operation force (counter pressure of the liquid etc.) and the force for breaking the material bridges 19 are adding up. It is therefore unlikely that the user overruns the second ring unintentionally.
  • the container or pump cylinder 26 is open via the hollow needle 36.
  • this embodiment is however very advantageous for applying a medicine into both nostrils consecutively but in even proportion.
  • the second stroke is thereby also tamper-proof.
  • Fig. 6 provides a closed and uncomplicated discharge apparatus which is easy to operate and to pack.
