Definitions
- the invention relates to a metering device for liquids, with which several, preferably two liquids are brought together and mixed together in precisely measured quantities, with the features of the preamble of claim 1, claim 9 and claim 18.
- the known metering device for metering several liquids, from which the invention is based has at least two cylinder-piston arrangements, each of which has an intake valve and an intake line with an external liquid supply and in each case via an exhaust line are connected to a discharge device with a mixing chamber and discharge opening with discharge valve. All parts of the dosing device are arranged in this housing in a coherent manner and thus when a housing for the dosing device is realized, while the liquids to be mixed with one another, in the exemplary embodiment a beverage concentrate and water, are supplied from liquid stores outside the housing via feed lines.
- the cylinder-piston arrangements of this known metering device have cylinders with very different diameters, so that different amounts of liquid, for example in a ratio of 1: 3, can be metered in one and the same piston stroke.
- the cylinder-piston arrangements of the metering device are not connected to the corresponding liquid supplies via feed lines, but these cylinder-piston arrangements are designed as more or less commercially available bottle top dispensers (see, for example, DE 197 02 773 AI, DE 197 02 778 AI).
- a bottle-top dispenser has the bottle-top mechanism, usually a screw-on mechanism, and integrates the suction and discharge valves as well as the suction and discharge lines in a dosing arm protruding from it. This is a compact design that has been tried and tested thousands of times. Each of the bottle top dispensers is firmly attached to the housing.
- the bottle-top dispensers are therefore used atypically according to the invention, namely fixedly arranged in the housing, while the liquid storage bottles are attached, in particular screwed, to the fixed-mounted bottle-top dispensers by means of the bottle-top mechanism.
- Claim 9 is of particular and independent importance with regard to achieving a particularly high dosage ratio.
- a metering device with which a large metering ratio is to be achieved, one possibility is to make the effective lever arms for actuating the pistons of the cylinder-piston arrangements very different.
- One and the same drive movement of the drive element then leads to very different working strokes of the pistons.
- the cylinder-piston arrangements are arranged next to one another in relation to the main plane of the housing of the metering device, the desired greatly different lever ratio can be achieved with an actuating lever mounted on one side and cylinder-piston arrangements which are sufficiently spaced from one another. The case is then wide, but not excessively deep.
- the subject matter of claim 18 also has special and independent significance.
- the blow-out device described here allows the dispensing device to be freed of the liquids to be metered either automatically after each metering process or, if it is deemed necessary. This makes it possible to avoid undesirable chemical processes in the case of liquid components which remain in the dispenser for a long time.
- a metering device for jointly dispensing various components of a medically effective disinfectant, in particular a short-term stable peroxide-alcohol mixture.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a metering device with a closed housing
- FIG. 2 the dosing device from FIG. 1 with the hood removed
- Fig. 3 shows the metering device of Fig. 2 in a view from the left in
- FIG. 4 shows the metering device from FIG. 2 in a view obliquely from above
- Fig. 5 shows a second embodiment of a metering device with a different lever mechanism
- FIG. 6 shows a bottle top dispenser of the metering device from FIG. 2 in a vertical section.
- the metering device shown closed in a perspective view in FIG. 1 is intended for liquids, in particular for different liquid components of disinfectants and very particularly for jointly dispensing various components of a medically effective disinfectant, in particular a peroxide / alcohol mixture.
- the metering device shown in FIG. 1 is designed as a device suitable for wall mounting with a support frame 1 to be attached to the wall and a hood 2 attached to the support frame 1 and covering the metering device as a whole.
- Support frame 1 and hood 2 together form a housing 3.
- Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 show in connection that in the housing 3 on the support frame 1 several, in the illustrated embodiment, two cylinder-piston assemblies 4 are arranged, with each of which a liquid component can be dispensed precisely metered.
- each cylinder-piston arrangement 4 has an intake line 5 with an intake valve 6 and an exhaust line 7 with an exhaust valve 8.
- a dispensing device 9 Arranged at the bottom of the housing 3 and protruding therefrom is a dispensing device 9 with a mixing chamber 10, which may be present but does not have to be present, in which the discharge lines 7 are brought together to form a dispensing opening 11.
- the discharge opening 1 1 has the shape of a cannula, so that the liquid mixture can be metered in a targeted and spatter-free manner.
- Fig. 6 shows a piston 12 of a cylinder-piston arrangement 4, as is known per se for bottle top dispensers (DE 197 02 773 AI, DE 197 02 778 AI) and an outer sleeve 12 'connected to the piston. The outer sleeve 12 'moves with the piston 12.
- cylinder-piston assemblies 4 here are designed as bottle top dispensers of typical design (see the literature references mentioned above).
- Each bottle top dispenser 4 has integrated the suction and discharge valves 6, 8 and the suction and discharge lines 5, 7 and has a bottle top mechanism 15.
- a bottle attachment mechanism 15 is a push-on cap or a screw-on cap that corrects the neck of a liquid storage bottle 16 accordingly. respondiert.
- the bottle-top dispenser 4 is firmly attached to the bottle-top mechanism 15 or a corresponding component in the housing 3, in the exemplary embodiment shown on a support plate 17 of the support frame 1, so that each bottle-top dispenser 4 has one on the stationary bottle-top mechanism 15 Liquid storage bottle 16 can be interchangeably attached. You can see the supply bottles 16 in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 in very different sizes for the two liquid components to be metered here.
- liquid storage bottles 16 are arranged in the housing 3 and the housing 3 for replacing the liquid storage bottles 16 is evident.
- an embodiment is shown, which is characterized in that the bottle attachment mechanism 15 is arranged at the edge, in particular at the bottom of the housing 3, and the liquid storage bottle 16 can be attached to it from the outside.
- 1 and 2 show very well in connection that in the exemplary embodiment shown, in which the metered and combined amounts of liquid are very different, the sizes of the storage bottles 16 for the two liquids to be mixed with one another are very different.
- the exemplary embodiment shown applies, for example, to a short-term stable peroxide-alcohol mixture with a mixing ratio of typically 1:40 of peroxide and alcohol.
- a micro pipetting unit which is of course also known per se, can then be installed in the interior of the bottle top dispenser.
- the bottle top dispenser 4 cannot be mixed up, it can be provided that the bottle top mechanisms 15 of the different bottle top dispensers 4 are designed differently, so that a mistake-free attachment of the associated storage bottle 16 is ensured. How to do this in detail, for example due to different diameters of the internal threads of the bottle top mechanisms 15, is within the grasp of the person skilled in the art and does not require any further detailed explanation here.
- the illustrated and preferred exemplary embodiment initially shows a mechanical drive device 14 which has a lever mechanism with which a different working stroke of the pistons 12 is achieved with a uniform drive movement of a drive member 19.
- the second exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 5, realizes this function in that the lever mechanism has a one-sided bearing axis 20 for one actuating lever 21 protruding therefrom per piston 12, that the cylinder-piston arrangements 4 are arranged at different distances from the bearing axis 20 are and that the joint actuation of the actuating lever 21 causes a distance-related different working stroke of the piston 12.
- the distances of the cylinder-piston assemblies 4 from the bearing axis 20 are limited in this embodiment by the fact that the housing 3 of the metering device cannot be as deep as desired in the wall mounting provided here.
- the exemplary embodiment which is shown in FIGS. 2 to 4 is therefore distinguished by a lever mechanism which is arranged differently.
- the lever mechanism has a one-sided bearing axis 20 for a single actuating lever 21 projecting therefrom and lying transversely in the housing 3 for the pistons 12 of both cylinder-piston arrangements 4.
- the side-by-side arrangement of the cylinder-piston arrangements 4 in the housing 3 means that these are located at different distances from the bearing axis 20.
- the different working stroke of the pistons 12 is realized automatically. Since the distance between the cylinder-piston arrangements 4 in the width of the housing 3 can be substantially greater than in the depth of the housing 3, this results such a possibility of achieving a much larger dosing ratio by means of a piston stroke that is significantly more different.
- FIG. 2 shows the bearing axis 20 on the right and opposite, on the left side of the support frame 1, a guide 22 for the actuating lever 21. This is guided laterally in the guide 22 and is held loosely on the piston heads by a guide spring 23.
- the illustrated and preferred exemplary embodiment further shows that the drive element 19 of the drive device 14 is a preferably lever-shaped hand lever articulated in the housing 3 and protruding from the housing 3.
- the hand lever forming the drive element 19 can be seen in FIG. 1 emerging from the hood 2 of the housing 3 at two slots 24. As usual in the medical field, this hand lever can be pressed down with the elbow while holding a hand under the dispensing opening 11 of the dispensing device 9.
- Fig. 2 shows that the drive member 19 is spring-loaded in its rest position, by means of the return spring 26 recognizable by a sleeve 25. Moreover, it is provided that the actuating lever 21 on the heads of the pistons 12 of the cylinder-piston assemblies 4th only rests and these pistons 12 are spring-loaded in the return direction (due to the internal return springs 12 ", FIG. 6). The return spring 26 of the drive member 19 serves to return to the rest position.
- FIG. 4 shows that the power transmission from the drive element 19 formed by the bow-shaped hand lever to the actuating lever 21 takes place via a deflection roller 27 and an actuating roller 28 lying transversely thereto, so that the mutual relative movements of the individual parts can be absorbed without problems.
- An embodiment of the drive device 14 which is more complex in terms of drive technology and is also known from the prior art uses one or two electric drive motors (EP 0 197 655 A2). This is another viable alternative that uses the different dosage of liquid quantities achieved even more conveniently, but also significantly more cost-effectively.
- FIG. 5 shows a particularly interesting exemplary embodiment of a drive device 14 of a metering device according to the invention, as the drive member 19 per cylinder-piston arrangement 4 has its own force introduction element 19a interacting with the respective separate actuating lever 21; 19b.
- Each force introduction element 19a; 19b is coupled to the associated actuating lever 21 of the respective cylinder-piston arrangements 4 via a lost motion connection.
- This lost motion connection is preferably adjustable and in any case in the illustrated embodiment with a return spring 26a; 26b executed.
- the force introduction elements 19a; 19b are crossbars of the bow-shaped hand lever which forms the drive element 19 in the exemplary embodiment shown.
- the aim is that the dosing ratio of the different liquids is typically 1:20 to 1:80, preferably approximately 1:40. But you can also come to much larger dosage ratios, for example one to two powers of ten larger. It is particularly preferred if a total amount of liquid of 1 to 5 ml, preferably of about 3 ml, is metered per stroke. 2 to 4 show yet another special feature of the metering device according to the invention.
- a blow-out device 29 is arranged in the housing 3 and is connected to the dispensing device 9 via a blow-out line 30. The blow-out device 29 can either be put into operation automatically after each dosing process or is optionally put into operation after the operator decides.
- the illustrated embodiment shows a pressure container 31, which consists of compressible, preferably rubber-like material and can be compressed to produce a compressed air blast.
- a connection 32 for the blow-out line 30 At the head of the pressure vessel 31 there is a connection 32 for the blow-out line 30.
- the blow-out line 30 in FIG. 2 goes to the left of the connection 32, where a pressure check valve is installed.
- a connection piece 32 protrudes, and there is a suction check valve therein. A clear flow direction for blow-out air is thus specified.
- the pressure container 31 as a compressed air supply in the blow-out device 29, for example also as a compressed air cartridge. Then one would only have to briefly open a valve for the compressed air pulse. However, this has the disadvantage that such a pressure vessel then has to be replaced or refilled more frequently.
- the illustrated and preferred exemplary embodiment now shows that here the elastically compressible pressure container 31 can be compressed by the drive member 19 after the liquid metering stroke has been completed with a subsequent blowout stroke.
- the pressure vessel 31 thus acts as a kind of air pump.
- the illustrated and preferred exemplary embodiment is further characterized in that the drive member 19 acts on the actuating lever 21 for the cylinder-piston arrangements 4 by means of the interposed return spring 26, which has already been explained in its return function that the drive member 19 can continue its drive movement over a certain distance with the actuating lever 21 already standing, that is to say after the metering stroke has been completed, and can thereby carry out the blowout stroke.
- the blow-out device 29 has a pressure lever 33, which in turn is in the blow-out stroke is pressed down by a projection 34 on the drive member 19 and compresses the elastic pressure container 31 with the thickened end like an air pump. As a result, the blow-out function is automatically carried out in a very simple manner on the last path.
- blow-out device 29 is also distinguished with regard to the blow-out device 29 in that the blow-out line 30 has a check valve at the mouth into the dispensing device 9.
- This check valve can simultaneously fulfill the function of the pressure valve, which otherwise, as explained above, is located at the connection 32 on the pressure vessel 31. Then this valve has at the same time ensured that liquid does not inadvertently blow back into the blow-out line 30 from the mixing chamber 10.
