Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device according to the preamble of claim 1, for receiving and dispensing a flowable product, in particular a liquid cleaning or care product with a product container for the flowable product, which has at least one closable discharge opening.
  • Devices of this type are known in various designs. They serve, for example, for receiving and dispensing a liquid detergent.
  • When using the device is usually delivered after opening the discharge opening by applying pressure to the product container product, either directly on the surface to be cleaned or on a cloth or a cleaning cloth.
  • This type of handling is common and can be carried out easily as part of a normal household cleaning.
  • document EP-A-0671340 discloses a device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Document US-A-1903312 discloses a device for receiving and dispensing a flowable product, wherein the product container can be inserted into the receptacle.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device which is directly operational without additional elements and can be stored in the vicinity of the object to be treated.
  • This device thus has, in addition to the actual product container, a reservoir for plate- or cloth-shaped absorbent elements which are immediately available on the device itself.
  • the arranged in the uppermost layer of the trough-shaped receptacle absorbent element adheres to the facing outside of the product container.
  • the product to be cleaned is first applied in a conventional manner, for example by applying pressure to the product container, then the product container is released from the receptacle and on the outside of the receptacle facing the receptacle adheres to an absorbent element with which the detergent the area to be cleaned can be distributed.
  • the absorbent element remains adherent to the outside of the product container or is removed by the user, then the product container is inserted back into the receptacle.
  • the previously used absorbent element adheres unchanged to the product container or, if this was removed after the last cleaning process, automatically adheres to the nearest absorbent element, since it at the onset of the product container in the receptacle with the fastener the outside of the product container has come into contact.
  • the fastening means is provided on the underside of the product container.
  • the product container is then adjusted with the bottom in the trough-shaped receptacle, the receptacle also serves as a base of the device.
  • the attachment means is designed in the manner of a hook and loop fastener, the absorbent element may for example consist of non-woven.
  • the device can then be used eg for furniture care.
  • the product container can be inserted into the receptacle.
  • particularly preferred locking means are provided on the product container and on the receptacle.
  • the locking means may be designed so that different locking positions are given, i.
  • the product receptacle can be inserted into the receptacle at different depths with more or less absorbent elements.
  • only one latching position can be provided, it is then expedient that the bottom surface of the receptacle is designed, for example, displaceable spring-loaded, such that it is ensured that the uppermost layer of the absorbent elements is always in such a height level in the receptacle that the product container or its facing outside comes with the fastening means in contact with the uppermost absorbent element.
  • the product container is detachably connected on the underside with a bottom plate on which the fastening means is arranged on the underside.
  • the product container can be easily replaced if it no longer contains a liquid product. It goes without saying that, in principle, the product container can also have a refill opening.
  • a device according to the invention for receiving and dispensing a flowable product is generally designated 1.
  • the device 1 initially has a product container 2, which is provided on the upper side with at least one discharge opening 3 and a closure lid 4.
  • the lateral wall surfaces are preferably designed so that they are easily engageable to facilitate the product delivery through the discharge opening 3.
  • a fastening means is provided on the product container 2, which is formed in two parts in the embodiment.
  • This fastener has in the illustrated embodiment, a bottom plate 5, which is latching on a lower-side tapered projection 6 of the product container attachable.
  • the bottom plate 5 serves for fastening a hook-and-loop fastener tape 7, which is e.g. is glued to the bottom plate 5.
  • the apparatus 1 further comprises a trough-shaped receptacle 8, in which stacked a plurality of plate-like or cloth-shaped absorbent elements 9 are arranged, which are formed for example as nonwoven cloths.
  • the hook-and-loop fastener tape 7 is designed in such a way that the absorbent element 9 adheres to it.
  • the product container 2 is inserted into the trough-shaped receptacle 8.
  • locking means between two containers are preferably provided so that the device 1 in the in Fig. 2 shown position can be handled as a single part, for example, can be parked on a table surface.
  • the closure lid 4 is opened and Product by pressing on the walls, preferably side walls, the product container 2 from the discharge opening 3 or output by means of a dosing device, not shown on the product container 2. Subsequently, the closure lid 4 is preferably shot again and the product container 2 is pulled out of the receptacle 8. In this case, the uppermost absorbent element 9 adheres to the Velcro fastener tape 7 on the underside of the product container 2. The product container 2 is brought with the absorbent member 9 adhering thereto on the discharged cleaning agent, and the detergent is spread on the table surface or the like for cleaning the same.
  • the invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiment. Further embodiments are possible without departing from the basic idea. So not necessarily a bottom plate 5 is required. However, the illustrated variant with base plate 5 offers the additional advantage that the product container 2 can be produced very cost-effectively and can be designed as a disposable and replacement article, ie when it is completely emptied, it can be replaced by a suitably designed fully filled product container 2 become. Additionally or alternatively, the product container 2 may of course also have a refill opening, not shown.
  • the absorbent elements 9 may also be formed as felt plates, which can engage with a recess in a fastening element designed as a snap element on the bottom plate 5 latching. The device can then be used eg for furniture care. A use of the device for flowable cosmetics, such as make-up, is possible.
