Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for retaining a pierceable gas cartridge.
  • the device itself consists of a device for removing gas comprising a perforating needle and a system for retaining a cartridge containing a gas, which can be punctured by the needle.
  • the cartridge in a well known manner, has a shape cylindrical, consisting of a metal wall.
  • the bottom of the cartridge is consisting of a concave sheet crimped on the metal wall.
  • the upper part of the cartridge is curved and has, at its axis of revolution, a concave perforation area.
  • the removal member punctures the cartridge at its concavity formed in its upper part.
  • stirrups There are two types of cartridge retention system perforable, a type called stirrups and a type called bell.
  • the stirrup type apparatus comprises a shell having a threaded ring on which are articulated two stirrups.
  • the shell covers the upper part of the cartridge and the two calipers are folded down to engage the concave bottom wall of the cartridge.
  • the gas sampling system is then screwed onto the hull and, at the end of screwing, the needle comes to perforate the cartridge. It must be specified that the sampling system is equipped with a seal which provides sealing around the hole in the cartridge.
  • the perforation of the cartridge is done perfectly controlled. Indeed, the gas sampling system punctures the cartridge in being perfectly guided by the threaded ring in the direction of the axis of revolution of the cartridge so that the perforation of the cartridge is done exactly at the concave perforation area formed in its upper part.
  • the system of gas sample is previously screwed onto the shell of the cartridge retainer, without it being filled with a cartridge. it may occur, for example, when the device has been stored as well.
  • the user may be tempted to place a cartridge in the restraint system to which the gas sampling system is screwed.
  • the cartridge retaining members consist of a stamped metal bell open at its base and having a threaded ring at its top, and by a disc closing off the base of the bell.
  • This disc is, in a conventional manner, fixed to the bell by a bayonet type fixing.
  • a bell type device is done, first of all, by placing a perforable cartridge in the retaining members, i.e. in the bell and then closing it by the shutter disc.
  • Perforation of the cartridge can then occur while it is not immobilized relative to the bell. So there again, there is a significant risk of gas leakage.
  • the gas sampling device is fixed to one of the half retaining elements, it is obvious to the user that the cartridge of gas cannot be accommodated in the device when it is in this configuration.
  • one of the half elements is free which is a strong indication of incorrect implementation
  • the cartridge cannot be inserted from the base since the means prohibitions are provided at this level. The user is therefore forced to withdraw the gas sampling device, and then to correctly implement the device.
  • each half element includes a half shell on which is fitted a U-shaped stirrup having two parallel uprights connected by a transverse rod, a staple metal connecting the transverse rods of each stirrup.
  • one of the half-shells has on its contact surface at least one boss engaging in a bore in the other half-shell.
  • each of the two half hulls have two holes plumb with two vertical housings in which engage the amounts of stirrups prohibiting any movement of stirrups compared to the half shells.
  • Figures 1, 2, 3 show a retainer according to a first embodiment during three stages of implementation.
  • a perforable cartridge 18 is done according to a protocol substantially equivalent to that described above for the first embodiment. Indeed, to place a cartridge 18 it is necessary, in a first time, rotate the half shells 25a, 25b one relative to the other.
