Definitions
- the present invention relates to a fastener for fixing a dispensing member, such as for example a pump or a valve, on a reservoir intended to contain a liquid fluid product, or even powder.
- a dispensing member such as for example a pump or a valve
- This type of fastener is frequently used in the field of perfumery, cosmetics or even the pharmacy to attach pumps or valves on containers of fluid.
- a fixing member comprises a fixing ring, generally made of plastic, associated with a trim ring which can be made of metal or plastic.
- the trim band is mounted around the ring so as to hide it at least partially to advantageously give it an attractive appearance.
- the trim band is engaged axially in force around the fixing ring, and this friction-only contact is sufficient in principle for fixing the band on the ring.
- FR-2,799,185 provides a partial solution to this problem of the solid attachment of the hoop on the ring. Indeed, it is intended in this document to crimp the trim band inside a sleeve formed by the ring. The crimping is supposed to ensure both a locking in axial translation and a locking rotation. However, it happens all the same that the hoop can turn on the ring, even with this internal crimping. Indeed, the crimping is more specifically adapted to locking in translation and does not implement specific means, except for a close contact, to ensure the locking in rotation.
- FR-2 779 419 discloses a pump mounted in a ring which is inserted by force into a tank neck.
- the ring externally forms a groove for engaging teeth formed within a hood.
- the teeth ensure locking both in rotation and in translation.
- the teeth are in the form of rectangular pads that protrude from the inner wall of the hood.
- Document US-A-2002/0076271 discloses a fixing ring for a dispenser member.
- a trim band is mounted on this fixing ring and has tabs adapted to be mounted on the shoulder formed by the ring so as to secure said ring and said ring together.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a perfect translational and rotational locking between a fixing ring and a covering hoop surrounding it.
- the present invention provides a fastener according to the main claim.
- the fixing member shown in the figures is generally designated by the reference numeral 1 and advantageously comprises two constituent elements, namely a fixing ring 2 and a covering band 3.
- the trim ring 3 is mounted around the fixing ring 2 and performs an aesthetic function, but sometimes also functional fixing.
- the fixing ring 2 comprises fastening means adapted to cooperate with a reservoir (not shown) or more precisely an opening of the reservoir which may for example be in the form of a projecting neck.
- the fixing ring 2 is more particularly adapted to cooperate with the outer wall of the opening of the reservoir which is advantageously made with one or more gripping profiles. These gripping profiles may for example be in the form of an external thread or in the form of a thickened flange forming a lower gripping shoulder.
- the fixing ring comprises a fixing skirt 21 which is provided internally with an internal thread 211 intended to cooperate with a corresponding thread formed on the outer wall of a tank or container neck.
- the fastening skirt 21 may also be provided with gripping or detenting heads intended to cooperate with a corresponding fastening profile formed on the outer wall of a container neck.
- the fixing ring comprises a fixing skirt 21 for ensuring a stable attachment of the fixing ring on a container.
- the fixing ring 2 also comprises receiving means for fixedly receiving a dispensing member.
- the dispensing member 4 which is shown very schematically in Figure 1, may be a pump or a valve. Its internal structure does not matter for the present invention; that's why she's not even represented.
- the dispensing member 4 generally comprises a body 40 inside which a valve 42 is axially displaceable.
- the body 40 may form or be provided with a fastening flange 41 intended to cooperate with the receiving means formed by the fixing ring 2.
- the fastening ring forms a snap-fitting housing 24 to the inside which the flange 41 of the dispensing member 4 is engaged in force and held fixedly.
- the ring forms here furthermore a holding sleeve 23 inside which the dispensing member 4 is engaged.
- the fixing ring 2 forms a sleeve 22 which can advantageously extend in the extension of the fixing skirt 21.
- the skirt 21 can extend downwards while the sleeve 22 extends towards the up to end with a free upper end 222.
- the sleeve 22 may have the same diameter as that of the skirt 21 or a different diameter.
- the bushing 22 of the ring 2 forms a retaining housing 225 which is open upwardly.
- This retaining housing 225 is here delimited by two walls 224 which extend substantially vertically opposite each other. The spacing between the two walls determines the width of the housing. This spacing can be constant, increasing or decreasing from its top opening.
- These walls 224 are at least partially formed by two longitudinal vertical flanges 223 formed on the inner wall of the sleeve 22.
- the walls 224 thus comprise a vertical component, but also a radial component.
- the sleeve 22 forms a notch 222 at the retaining housing 225.
- a socket devoid of such a notch 222 so that the sleeve is complete and continuous over its entire periphery at the its upper end 222.
- the retaining housing 225 is formed only inside the socket by the walls 224 of the two flanges 223.
- the wrapping band 3 here comprises a perfectly cylindrical barrel 31 having a lower end 32 and an upper end 33.
- the internal diameter of the barrel 31 is advantageously equal to or very slightly less than the maximum outside diameter of the fixing ring 2.
- the band 3 forms at its upper end 33 a peripheral peripheral flap 34 which can advantageously forming a small return 341 oriented downwards substantially parallel and concentrically to the shaft 31.
- the trim band 3 forms a hooking element 35 which performs both a locking in rotation and a locking in axial translation of the band on the ring.
- the fastening element 35 is made in one piece for the trim band.
- these rotational locking and locking functions in axial translation could be dissociated so as to be provided by two distinct elements, but preferably according to the invention these two locking functions are performed by one and the same attachment element 35.
- This attachment element 35 extends in the extension of the return 341 or the tuck flap 34 by pointing downwards towards the lower end 32 of the hoop.
- the attachment element 35 is here in the form of an arrow forming a substantially straight body 351 at the end of which is formed a harpooning head forming one or two spearing profiles 352.
- the attachment element 35 extends substantially axially, but also tangentially.
- the body 351 of the fastening element 35 may have a width less than or equal to the distance separating the two walls 224 of the housing 225. However, the width of the head at the attachment profiles 352 is greater than the distance separating the two walls 224 of the housing 225.
- the engagement of the fastening element 35 in the housing 225 has the effect of biting the attachment profiles 352 in the walls 224 of the housing 225. of their configuration in the manner of a harpoon, the harpooning profiles 352 can be inserted with a limited pressure force inside the housing 225, while their removal is made impossible in the manner of a conventional harpoon. Thus, a locking in axial translation is ensured.
- the fixing ring 2 may be made of a plastic material.
- the trim band 3 it may also be made of a plastic material, but its attachment element 35 must be made of a harder plastic material to be able to fulfill its harpooning function.
- the trim band 3 is made of metal.
- the shaft 31 of the band 3 is here in tight contact with the ring 2, one can very well imagine an embodiment in which the shaft 31 is not in tight contact with the fixing ring 2.
- the fixing the ring on the ring is then entirely ensured by the engagement of the attachment element or elements 35 in one or more respective retaining seats.
- the fastening element (s) are here made at the level of the flap inside the hoop. However, they can be located elsewhere in the band, for example at the bottom of the band.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un organe de fixation pour fixer un organe de distribution, tel que par exemple une pompe ou une valve, sur un réservoir destiné à contenir un produit fluide liquide, ou même pulvérulent. Ce genre d'organe de fixation est fréquemment utilisé dans le domaine de la parfumerie, de la cosmétique ou encore de la pharmacie pour fixer des pompes ou des valves sur des récipients de produit fluide.The present invention relates to a fastener for fixing a dispensing member, such as for example a pump or a valve, on a reservoir intended to contain a liquid fluid product, or even powder. This type of fastener is frequently used in the field of perfumery, cosmetics or even the pharmacy to attach pumps or valves on containers of fluid.
De manière classique, un organe de fixation comprend une bague de fixation, généralement en matière plastique, associée à une frette d'habillage qui peut être réalisée en métal ou en matière plastique. La frette d'habillage est montée autour de la bague de manière à la masquer au moins partiellement pour lui conférer avantageusement un aspect esthétique attrayant. De manière classique, la frette d'habillage est engagée axialement en force autour de la bague de fixation, et ce seul contact serrant par frottement suffit en principe à la fixation de la frette sur la bague. Cependant, il arrive fréquemment que la frette tourne autour de la bague ou s'en dégage axialement en exerçant une force très limitée.Conventionally, a fixing member comprises a fixing ring, generally made of plastic, associated with a trim ring which can be made of metal or plastic. The trim band is mounted around the ring so as to hide it at least partially to advantageously give it an attractive appearance. Conventionally, the trim band is engaged axially in force around the fixing ring, and this friction-only contact is sufficient in principle for fixing the band on the ring. However, it often happens that the hoop rotates around the ring or disengages axially exerting a very limited force.
Le document FR-2 799 185 apporte une solution partielle à ce problème de la fixation solide de la frette sur la bague. En effet, il est prévu dans ce document de sertir la frette d'habillage à l'intérieur d'une douille formée par la bague. Le sertissage est sensée assurer à la fois un blocage en translation axiale et un blocage en rotation. Toutefois, il arrive tout de même que la frette puisse tourner sur la bague, même avec ce sertissage interne. En effet, le sertissage est plus spécialement adapté à un blocage en translation et ne met pas en oeuvre des moyens spécifiques, hormis un contact serrant, pour assurer le blocage en rotation.FR-2,799,185 provides a partial solution to this problem of the solid attachment of the hoop on the ring. Indeed, it is intended in this document to crimp the trim band inside a sleeve formed by the ring. The crimping is supposed to ensure both a locking in axial translation and a locking rotation. However, it happens all the same that the hoop can turn on the ring, even with this internal crimping. Indeed, the crimping is more specifically adapted to locking in translation and does not implement specific means, except for a close contact, to ensure the locking in rotation.
Le document FR-2 779 419 décrit une pompe montée dans une bague qui est insérée en force dans un col de réservoir. La bague forme extérieurement une gorge destinée à venir en prise avec des dents formées à l'intérieur d'un capot. Les dents assurent un verrouillage à la fois en rotation et en translation. Les dents se présentent sous la forme de plots rectangulaires qui font saillie à partir de la paroi interne du capot. Toutefois, il n'est pas clairement mentionné comment les dents sont maintenues dans la gorge. Le document US-A-2002/0076271 divulgue une bague de fixation pour un organe de distribution. Une frette d'habillage est montée sur cette bague de fixation et comporte des pattes adaptées à se est montée sur épaulement formé par la bague de façon à solidariser ladite frette et ladite bague ensemble. Le but de la présente invention est d'assurer un blocage translatif et rotatif parfait entre une bague de fixation et une frette d'habillage l'entourant.FR-2 779 419 discloses a pump mounted in a ring which is inserted by force into a tank neck. The ring externally forms a groove for engaging teeth formed within a hood. The teeth ensure locking both in rotation and in translation. The teeth are in the form of rectangular pads that protrude from the inner wall of the hood. However, it is not clear how the teeth are held in the throat. Document US-A-2002/0076271 discloses a fixing ring for a dispenser member. A trim band is mounted on this fixing ring and has tabs adapted to be mounted on the shoulder formed by the ring so as to secure said ring and said ring together. The object of the present invention is to provide a perfect translational and rotational locking between a fixing ring and a covering hoop surrounding it.
Pour atteindre ce but, la présente invention propose un organe de fixation selon la revendication principale.To achieve this object, the present invention provides a fastener according to the main claim.
L'invention sera maintenant plus amplement décrite en référence aux dessins joints donnant à titre d'exemple non limitatif un mode de réalisation de l'invention.The invention will now be more fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings giving by way of non-limiting example an embodiment of the invention.
Sur les figures :
- la figure 1 est une vue en coupe transversale verticale à travers un organe de fixation de l'invention dans lequel est monté un organe de distribution,
- la figure 2 est une vue en coupe transversale verticale à travers la frette d'habillage d'un organe de fixation selon l'invention, et
- la figure 3 est une vue en coupe transversale verticale à travers une bague de fixation d'un organe de fixation selon l'invention.
- FIG. 1 is a vertical cross-sectional view through a fastener of the invention in which a dispenser member is mounted,
- FIG. 2 is a vertical cross-sectional view through the trim band of a fastener according to the invention, and
- Figure 3 is a vertical cross-sectional view through a fixing ring of a fastener according to the invention.
L'organe de fixation représenté sur les figures est désigné dans son ensemble par la référence numérique 1 et comprend avantageusement deux éléments constitutifs, à savoir une bague de fixation 2 et une frette d'habillage 3. La frette d'habillage 3 est montée autour de la bague de fixation 2 et remplit une fonction esthétique, mais parfois également fonctionnelle de fixation.The fixing member shown in the figures is generally designated by the
La bague de fixation 2 comprend des moyens de fixation aptes à coopérer avec un réservoir (non représenté) ou plus précisément une ouverture du réservoir qui peut par exemple se présenter sous la forme d'un col saillant. La bague de fixation 2 est plus particulièrement adaptée à coopérer avec la paroi externe de l'ouverture du réservoir qui est avantageusement réalisée avec un ou plusieurs profils de préhension. Ces profils de préhension peuvent par exemple se présenter sous la forme d'un filetage externe ou encore sous la forme d'un rebord épaissi formant un épaulement inférieur de préhension. Dans le cas présent, la bague de fixation comprend une jupe de fixation 21 qui est pourvue intérieurement d'un filetage interne 211 destiné à coopérer avec un filetage correspondant formé sur la paroi externe d'un col de réservoir ou de récipient. Sans changer l'esprit de l'invention, la jupe de fixation 21 peut également être pourvue de têtes de préhension ou d'encliquetage destinées à coopérer avec un profil d'accrochage correspondant formé sur la paroi externe d'un col de récipient. Plus généralement, la bague de fixation comprend une jupe de fixation 21 permettant d'assurer une fixation stable de la bague de fixation sur un récipient.The
La bague de fixation 2 comprend également des moyens de réception pour recevoir fixement un organe de distribution. L'organe de distribution 4, qui est représenté très schématiquement sur la figure 1, peut être une pompe ou une valve. Sa structure interne n'a aucune importance pour la présente invention ; c'est pourquoi elle n'est même pas représentée. L'organe de distribution 4 comprend en général un corps 40 à l'intérieur duquel une soupape 42 est déplaçable axialement. Le corps 40 peut former ou être pourvu d'une collerette de fixation 41 destinée à coopérer avec les moyens de réception formés par la bague de fixation 2. Dans le cas présent, la bague de fixation forme un logement d'encliquetage 24 à l'intérieur duquel la collerette 41 de l'organe de distribution 4 est engagée en force et maintenue fixement. Pour améliorer la stabilité de l'organe de distribution 4 dans la bague de fixation 2, la bague forme ici en outre un manchon de maintien 23 à l'intérieur duquel l'organe de distribution 4 est en prise.The
D'autre part, la bague de fixation 2 forme une douille 22 qui peut avantageusement s'étendre dans le prolongement de la jupe de fixation 21. La jupe 21 peut s'étendre vers le bas alors que la douille 22 s'étend vers le haut pour se terminer par une extrémité supérieure libre 222. La douille 22 peut avoir le même diamètre que celui de la jupe 21 ou un diamètre différent. En se référant à la figure 3, on peut voir plus clairement que la douille 22 de la bague 2 forme un logement de retenue 225 qui est ouvert vers le haut. Ce logement de retenue 225 est ici délimité par deux parois 224 qui s'étendent sensiblement verticalement l'une en face de l'autre. L'écartement entre les deux parois détermine la largeur du logement. Cet écartement peut être constant, croissant ou décroissant à partir de son ouverture supérieure. Ces parois 224 sont au moins partiellement formées par deux brides verticales longitudinales 223 formées sur la paroi interne de la douille 22. Les parois 224 comprennent ainsi une composante verticale, mais également une composante radiale. De préférence, mais pas obligatoirement, la douille 22 forme une échancrure 222 au niveau du logement de retenue 225. On peut cependant imaginer une douille dépourvue d'une telle échancrure 222 de sorte que la douille est complète et continue sur toute sa périphérie au niveau de son extrémité supérieure 222. Dans ce cas, le logement de retenue 225 n'est formé qu'à l'intérieur de la douille par les parois 224 des deux brides 223. Sur les figures, on ne voit qu'un seul logement de retenue 225, mais on peut très bien prévoir plusieurs logement de retenue 225 répartis par exemple de manière équidistante sur la périphérie de la douille 22.On the other hand, the
La frette d'habillage 3 comprend ici un fût parfaitement cylindrique 31 présentant une extrémité inférieure 32 et une extrémité supérieure 33. Le diamètre interne du fût 31 est avantageusement égal ou très légèrement inférieur au diamètre externe maximal de la bague de fixation 2. Ainsi, le fût 31 de la frette 3 peut être engagé avec un contact de frottement serrant autour de la bague de fixation 2, pour réaliser une fixation primaire. La frette 3 forme au niveau de son extrémité supérieure 33 un rabat périphérique rentrant 34 qui peut avantageusement former un petit retour 341 orienté vers le bas sensiblement parallèlement et de manière concentrique au fût 31.The
Selon l'invention, la frette d'habillage 3 forme un élément d'accrochage 35 qui réalise à la fois un blocage en rotation et un blocage en translation axiale de la frette sur la bague. L'élément d'accrochage 35 est réalisé de manière monobloc pour la frette d'habillage. Toutefois, ces fonctions de blocage en rotation et de blocage en translation axiale pourraient être dissociées de manière à être assurées par deux éléments distincts, mais de préférence selon l'invention ces deux fonctions de blocage sont réalisées par un seul et même élément d'accrochage 35. Cet élément d'accrochage 35 s'étend dans le prolongement du retour 341 ou du rabat rentrant 34 en pointant vers le bas en direction de l'extrémité inférieure 32 de la frette. L'élément d'accrochage 35 se présente ici sous la forme d'une flèche formant un corps sensiblement droit 351 au bout duquel est formée une tête d'harponnage formant un ou deux profils d'harponnage 352. On peut bien entendu imaginer un élément d'accrochage formé avec uniquement un seul profil d'harponnage ou encore avec plus de deux profils d'harponnage. L'élément d'accrochage 35 s'étend sensiblement axialement, mais également tangentiellement.According to the invention, the
En se référent simultanément aux figures 2 et 3, on comprendra aisément qu'en engageant axialement la frette d'habillage 3 sur la bague de fixation 2, l'élément d'accrochage 35 va s'engager axialement à l'intérieur du logement de retenue 225 formé par la douille 22 de la bague de fixation 2. Bien entendu, il faut préalablement orienter correctement la frette d'habillage 3 pour aligner axialement l'élément d'accrochage 35 avec le logement de retenue 225. L'élément d'accrochage 35 peut ainsi pénétrer dans le logement 225 lors du montage de la frette sur la bague sans opération additionnelle. L'élément d'accrochage 35 va venir se positionner entre les deux parois 224 du logement 225, ce qui assure déjà un blocage en rotation de la frette sur la bague. Le corps 351 de l'élément d'accrochage 35 peut présenter une largeur inférieure ou égale à la distance séparant les deux parois 224 du logement 225. Cependant, la largeur de la tête au niveau des profils d'accrochage 352 est supérieure à la distance séparant les deux parois 224 du logement 225. De ce fait, l'engagement de l'élément d'accrochage 35 dans le logement 225 a pour effet de faire mordre les profils d'accrochage 352 dans les parois 224 du logement 225. Du fait de leur configuration à la manière d'un harpon, les profils d'harponnage 352 peuvent être insérés avec une force de pression limitée à l'intérieur du logement 225, alors que leur retrait est rendu impossible à la manière d'un harpon classique. Ainsi, un blocage en translation axiale est assuré.With simultaneous reference to FIGS. 2 and 3, it will be readily understood that by axially engaging the
Il faut noter que les fonctions de blocage en rotation et en translation axiale sont ici assurées par un seul élément d'accrochage coopérant avec un seul logement de retenue. On peut bien entendu prévoir plusieurs éléments d'accrochage 35 répartis avantageusement de manière régulière sur le pourtour du rabat rentrant 34 de la frette 3. La bague de fixation 2 peut être réalisée en un matériau plastique. Quant à la frette d'habillage 3, elle peut également être réalisée en un matériau plastique, mais son élément d'accrochage 35 doit être réalisé en un matériau plastique plus dur pour pouvoir remplir sa fonction d'harponnage. De préférence, la frette d'habillage 3 est réalisée en métal.It should be noted that the locking functions in rotation and in axial translation are here ensured by a single fastening element cooperating with a single retaining housing. It is of course possible to provide a plurality of
Bien que le fût 31 de la frette 3 soit ici en contact serrant avec la bague 2, on peut très bien imaginer une forme de réalisation dans laquelle le fût 31 n'est pas en contact serrant avec la bague de fixation 2. La fixation de la frette sur la bague est alors assurée entièrement par l'engagement du ou des éléments d'accrochage 35 dans un ou plusieurs logements de retenue respectifs. Le ou les éléments d'accrochage sont ici réalisés au niveau du rabat rentrant de la frette. Cependant, on peut les localiser à un autre endroit de la frette, par exemple en bas de la frette.Although the
