Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dispensing head for a container of liquid product.
  • the dispensing heads generally include a manual support face for actuating the product delivery means and an ejection nozzle provided with an internal evacuation duct capable of being supplied by said delivery means via an element possibly removable connector.
  • the nozzles always contain a residue of product which then remains in contact with ambient air until the next distribution sequence and which is therefore liable to deteriorate or become contaminated before being delivered to his turn.
  • the present invention aims to solve the technical problems related to the prior art.
  • a dispensing head characterized in that said end piece consists of a hollow rod inclined towards the container and adapted to receive a removable cap consisting of a tube closed at one end. and intended to be fitted externally by its other end on said rod in a sliding manner.
  • said tube is closed by a transverse wall, the external face of which is concave and the internal face carries a coaxial lug intended to slide into the internal duct of the end piece.
  • said transverse wall has a surface greater than the section of the tube to form a stable support base for the cap and the free end of the lug has a frustoconical section.
  • said end piece is delimited upstream of the duct by a shoulder forming a stop for the edge of the end of said tube.
  • the rod is inclined with an angle ⁇ of between 0 ° and 150 ° relative to the axis of the container and the manual support face has a concave profile.
  • the head of the invention provides a precise and economical mode of distribution.
  • the inclination of the rod of the nozzle allows the total purging of the head without the need to overturn the tank.
  • the removable cap is very ergonomic. It offers easy grip to the user and provides very effective mechanical and sanitary protection of the rod.
  • Figures la and lb show sectional views of an embodiment of the dispensing head of the invention with the nozzle respectively in the open position and the cap in the vertical support position;
  • FIG. 2 shows a sectional view of the embodiment of Figure 1 in the closed position of the nozzle
  • FIG. 3 shows a sectional view of the embodiment of Figures 1 and 2 after assembly on a tank.
  • the dispensing head T of the invention is intended to be mounted on a container R of liquid product as shown in FIG. 3.
  • This container R is generally equipped with means for delivering the product such as a pump P.
  • the head T comprises a manual support face 1 with a concave profile for actuating the delivery means P and an ejection nozzle
  • the conduit 20 is capable of being supplied by the means P via a connection element
  • the connecting element 3 is here produced in the form of an internal sleeve, the lower part of which covers the upper part of the nozzle g of the pump P.
  • the nozzle g opens into a cylindrical axial bore 30 communicating at its upper end with the evacuation duct 20 of the nozzle 2.
  • the head T can thus be easily separated from the container R. This simplifies the packaging and storage of the assembly.
  • the end piece 2 consists of a hollow rod 21 inclined downward and towards the container in the manner of a trunk with an angle ⁇ of between 0 ° and 150 ° depending on the applications envisaged and in the figures, equal to about 135 ° from the X axis of the container R.
  • the end piece 2 is adapted to receive a removable cap 4 constituted by a tube 40 closed at one end and intended to be fitted externally by its other end on the rod 21 in a sliding manner as shown in FIG. 2.
  • the tube 40 is closed off by a transverse wall 41, the external face 41a of which is concave and the internal face 41b carries a coaxial lug 42 intended to slide in the conduit 20 of the endpiece 2.
  • the free end 42a of the lug 42 has a frustoconical section facilitating its introduction and its sliding in the duct 20.
  • the end piece 2 is delimited upstream of the duct 20 by a shoulder 22 forming a stop for the end edge of the tube 40 of the cap 4 while having a cylindrical profile without discontinuity between the head T and said cap.
  • the relative lengths of the tube 40 and the rod 21 are such that in the assembly position (FIG. 2), there remains a slight free space between the end edge of the rod 21 and the wall 41, in the bottom of the tube 40.
  • the transverse wall 41 of the cap 4 has a surface greater than the section of the tube so as to form a stable support base for maintaining the tube 40 in the vertical position as shown in FIG. 1b.
