Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a distribution device in the form sprayed with a fluid product. More particularly, the invention relates to a preferably disposable miniature sprayer suitable in particular for the sample in the fields of pharmacy, perfumery or cosmetics.
  • the dispensing device according to the invention can also find pharmaceutical applications. In this particular area, it is important that the dose of product is precise. In addition, it is also important that the spraying is of good quality.
  • a disposable vaporizer made by welding a plastic sheet defining between it a reservoir as well as two swirl channels connected to a spray orifice.
  • This disposable spray does not, however, to expel a defined dose of product.
  • the creation of swirling by welding of two plastic sheets is rather imprecise and random.
  • the tank is divided into two chambers by a partition which breaks under the action of pressure. One bedroom is filled with a fluid while the other contains another product and air.
  • the tank is separated from the spray orifice by a break point.
  • the partition breaks and the two fluids mix more or less with each other and with air. Either way, the mixture as well obtained cannot be homogeneous.
  • the breaking point breaks and the non-homogeneous mixture is discharged to the spray orifice.
  • the jet coming out of the orifice is sometimes composed of the first fluid, sometimes composed of the second fluid and sometimes air, but never a homogeneous mixture of the three. It follows that the jet is sometimes purely aqueous and sometimes biphasic. Its quality is therefore not constant.
  • the present invention aims to solve this problem of the prior art by defining an inexpensive distribution device which ensures perfect quality of spraying in all circumstances.
  • the volume of the dose emitted should be constant and precise.
  • the distributor will have to meet certain dimensional requirements, in particular it must have a very reduced thickness in order to be incorporated into a magazine or a review. It must also be able to withstand high pressures without leakage of product. Indeed, when such a sample is included in a journal for example and that these journals are stacked, the included sample is subjected to strong pressure.
  • said at least one actuating wall at rest has a convex profile, which is capable of deforming suddenly and easily in a determined concave profile, as soon as the pressing force has reached said threshold of resistance.
  • the actuation takes place also by pressing on an actuating wall, but in the present invention, the state of deformation of the wall (s) does not depend linearly on the bearing force but requires exceeding a predetermined threshold so that it is created in the user's finger an accumulation of energy which is suddenly released when the force exceeds said resistance threshold of the wall.
  • This creates a kind of precompression although the liquid inside the tank is not subjected to any pressure until the wall is deformed.
  • the accumulation of potential energy in the user's finger ensures that the energy released will be necessary and sufficient for a good spraying of the product. Dynamically, as long as the support force has not not reached this threshold, the wall remains at rest.
  • the wall leaves its rest position and during its deformation to its final deformed position, the force required is actually much lower than the force required to overtake the resistance threshold, which means that the deformation, after leaving the rest position, is fast and abrupt since the force is much greater than that necessary.
  • the rest position therefore constitutes a point of resistance after which the force required for deformation is much less to reach the final deformed state.
  • said at least one actuating wall has at least one reinforcing groove or rib to increase its rigidity or delimit its perimeter. This point of resistance is here achieved by the grooves or ribs.
  • said at least one actuating wall has a shape memory allowing it to return to its initial shape after loosening of the supporting force. This ensures that the dispenser can be used repeatedly without altering the actuation capacity of the wall.
  • a nozzle comprising a retention piece of porous material adapted to soak up fluid product is disposed upstream of the spray orifice.
  • the piece of porous retention is automatically soaked in fluid by capillary action when the distributor is at rest, and is then crossed by an air flow which is put under pressure by actuation of the tank wall.
  • the spray orifice is hermetically sealed, before use of the device, by a plug member. Therefore, a actuation of the wall will only compress the air inside the tank without spraying.
  • the plug member therefore serves as security and first use guarantee.
  • the dispenser can be made from a thermoformed shell forming the actuating wall and an opercular film together defining the reservoir and the spray orifice.
  • the distributor can thus be made very simply and quickly in a single assembly line.
  • the distributor can be made from two shells thermoformed each forming an actuating wall, the two shells being tightly assembled to form the reservoir and the orifice between them spray.
  • the dispensing device according to the invention which is shown is a free type sample for incorporation in journals or magazines as an advertisement, for example for a perfume.
  • the dispenser should be relatively flat.
  • This free sample app should only not be considered unique or limiting indeed, we can apply this invention to any fluid dispenser having an actuating wall to deform to exert pressure on the product to be dispensed.
  • the distributor comprises three constituent elements, namely a semi-rigid shell 11, preferably thermoformed, a flat opercular film 12 connected to the shell 11, and a part of porous material 19 wedged between the shell i1 and the film 12.
  • the film may appear in the form of a flexible or rigid substrate.
  • the semi-rigid shell 11 can be produced from a sheet of material thermoformable plastic.
  • the flat plastic sheet is placed on an imprint concave defining a concave dome 13 and a channel 15 defining a housing ending with a conduit 14 made blind by a plug portion 171 as is can see it in Figures 2a and 2b.
  • the shell defines a dome 13 to which the housing 15 terminated by channel 14 is connected, as can be seen in the different figures.
  • the dome 13 defines relative to the plane of the shell 11 a certain volume which corresponds to that of the tank which will be designated in the rest of the description by reference 13
  • the film lid 12 is heat sealed on the base of the shell 11 so as to isolate the tank 13 as well as the housing 15 and the blind channel 14 from the outside, as can be seen see in FIG. 1a, the shell i1 and the opercular film 12 define together by therefore an internal volume constituted by the reservoir 13, the housing 15 and the channel blind 14.
  • the fluid to be dispensed must be introduced into the reservoir 13 before sealing using film 12.
  • the amount of fluid in each tank 13 is preferably less than the total capacity of the tank 13 so that part of the reservoir 13 remains filled with a gas, for example air. We assure thus a biphasic distribution.
  • the shell i1 and the cover film 12 are provided with a common rupture line 18 which crosses the blind duct 14.
  • the part of the shell 17 formed on the other side of the rupture line 18 relative to the reservoir 13 defines a foldable or tear-off tab serving as a plug member.
  • the conduit 14 is then no longer blind but defines an orifice 16 serving as an orifice for spray for the dispenser. Therefore, after tearing off the tongue detachable 17, the reservoir 13 can communicate with the outside via the channel 14 opening with its spray orifice 16.
  • the housing 15 can for example contain any spray nozzle, but of preferably according to the invention the housing 15 contains a piece of porous material 19 a detailed explanation of which will be given with reference to Figures 2 and 3. In any case, the housing 15 can contain any means allowing spraying of the product stored inside the tank 13.
  • the user will understand that it is necessary to act on the top of the dome of the reservoir 13.
  • the dome of the reservoir 13 defines a wall actuator 131 on which one can act using the thumb for example.
  • This actuating wall 131 has a convex profile at rest which incorporated almost imperceptibly to the eye in the tank dome 13.
  • This actuating wall 131 can be delimited on its periphery by one or several grooves or ribs 132 which are formed inside the dome during the thermoforming. These grooves or ribs 132 therefore have on the one hand the role of delimiting the actuation wall area but also to strengthen and stiffen its periphery.
  • These grooves or ribs 132 have the effect of reinforcing the resistance of the profile concave to the deformation exerted according to arrow F in FIG. 1c. This resistance deformation can also come from the particular shape of the dome.
  • the convex wall 131 suddenly deforms towards the inside of the tank until it reaches a final deformed position in which it forms a concave profile approximately corresponding to the convex profile of the initial state. Note that the rest of the dome constituting the reservoir 13 does not undergo any deformation during the deformation of the actuating wall 131.
  • the wall actuation presents a shape memory which results in an intrinsic force of return which brings back the actuating wall 131 from its pressed shape to its shape convex rest.
  • FIGS. 2b and 3b describe a particular embodiment using a piece of porous material 19 to spray at orifice 16.
  • the piece of porous material which can be present in the form of a small east parallelepiped. placed in the housing 15 that forms the shell i1 upstream of the outlet channel 14.
  • the piece of porous material 19 is blocked in the housing 15 downstream by the wall sections joining the channel 14 and upstream by a locking angle 191 formed by the shell 11.
  • the piece of material porous 19 can not move, but still remains in connection with the reservoir 13 in such a way that it can soak by capillarity of the product contained in the reservoir 13.
  • the channel 14 is closed by the wall 171 which is part of the tongue foldable or detachable 17.
  • the piece of porous material can still soak in product while preventing passage of the product beyond in the space formed by the conduit 14. Indeed, the phenomenon of capillarity produced by the piece of porous material prevents any passage of the product in this space.
  • the conduit 14 forms the orifice of spraying as can be seen in Figures 3a and 3b. An actuation of the wall 131 then has the effect of compressing this air and expelling it through the piece of porous material soaked in product, which causes its two-phase spraying orifice level 16.
  • the piece of porous material can be adapted in size so as to contain only one dose.
  • the piece of material porous 19 is then emptied of its fluid product.
  • the loading of fluid from the piece of porous material 19 is carried out simply by agitating the dispenser or by letting it rest horizontally on its cover film 12. After a few seconds, the piece of porous material 19 is again completely soaked with fluid and actuation is again possible.
  • This piece of porous material 19 therefore acts to the manner of a dosing chamber which ensures consistency in the amount of product distributed.
  • the piece of porous material 15, while occupying the housing 15, can extend into the reservoir in the manner of a tube diver.
  • the porous part can retain several doses so that several consecutive actuations are possible.
  • this part acts as a stopper which prevents the product from leaking out. through orifice 16. Therefore, even when the dispenser is open, i.e. with its tab 17 torn off, the dispenser can easily be transported even at upside down without risk of leakage
