Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fixing device and a mounting method for fixing a dispensing member such as a pump or a valve on an opening of a fluid reservoir.
  • this opening is formed by a neck which protrudes from a tank body serving as a storage volume for the fluid product.
  • the device has an axis of symmetry and comprises a fixing ring provided with receiving means for the dispensing member and fastening means on the opening of the reservoir.
  • the fixing device comprises a hoop intended to surround the ring, the hoop comprising an outer wall intended to come into contact with the outer wall of the ring. This type of ring and ring fastening device is frequently used in the fields of perfumery, cosmetics or even pharmacy.
  • the fixing ring comprises a peripheral skirt intended to be positioned around the opening of the reservoir to achieve a fixation.
  • the opening of the reservoir is formed by a neck which is provided with a peripheral reinforcement which protrudes outwards. This reinforcement thus forms a downwardly directed shoulder which serves as an attachment zone for the skirt.
  • the skirt is provided with attachment heads advantageously distributed regularly on the inner periphery of the skirt. Alternatively, these attachment heads may be replaced by a continuous peripheral bead also intended to engage under the shoulder of the neck.
  • the skirt may be continuous over its entire periphery or split so as to form segments separated by slots. Each segment can be formed with one or two head (s) of attachment.
  • the documents EP 0 653 359 and EP 0 707 895 show fasteners of this type.
  • the skirt split and provided with hooking heads, while in the document EP 0 707 895 , the skirt is continuous and formed with internal bosses similar to the attachment heads.
  • the fixing ring is provided with outwardly protruding profiles intended to form an abutment zone for the lower end of the hoop.
  • protruding profiles have sufficient strength to allow the establishment of the ring on the opening of the tank by pressing the collar which itself bears on the protruding profiles.
  • the ring can initially be mounted on the opening of the tank, and in a second time a stronger pressure allows the hoop to deform or to break the protruding profiles for him. allow to engage permanently around the ring and more particularly the skirt to thereby lock the ring on the opening of the tank.
  • elements which protrude outwards with respect to the substantially cylindrical outer wall of the ring in association with the lower end edge of the hoop are used to effect a temporary prepositioning of the ring. fret on the ring.
  • the object of the present invention is to remedy the aforementioned problem of the prior art by defining a device with a fixing ring and a ring in which the prepositioning of the hoop on the ring and / or the definitive fixing of the hoop on the ring are made. easier and safer way.
  • the present invention proposes that the outer wall of the ring is provided with at least one housing and that the inner wall of the hoop is provided with at least one projecting profile intended to engage in the housing of the ring. This produces a real snap of the band on the ring.
  • the engagement of the profile in the housing corresponds to a final mounting position of the hoop in the ring.
  • the profile of the hoop is not used to preposition the hoop on the ring.
  • the engagement of the profile in the housing corresponds to an intermediate position of assembly of the hoop in the ring.
  • the housing of the ring is not used for the final fixing of the band on the ring, but only to its temporary prepositioning.
  • said at least one housing extends in a plane perpendicular to the axis.
  • the housing may for example be in the form of an annular groove or several groove segments which extend annularly.
  • the inner wall comprises an upper end and a lower end, said at least one projecting profile being formed closer to the upper end than the lower end, preferably close to the end. higher.
  • This embodiment is particularly well suited to the final fixing of the hoop on the ring.
  • the inner wall comprises a lower end, said at least one projecting profile being formed at said lower end, said at least one profile being engaged in said at least one housing in an intermediate mounting position.
  • This embodiment is more particularly adapted to a prepositioning and then to a final fixing of the band on the ring.
  • said at least one profile engages under the lower edge of the ring in a final mounting position.
  • the ring can be free from the housing so that the projecting profile of the hoop only snaps under the ring in the final mounting position.
  • the hoop comprises an outer wall provided with at least one recess.
  • said at least one recess is situated axially at the same level as said at least one projecting profile.
  • said at least one recess and said at least one protruding profile are formed by peripheral deformation towards the inside of the hoop. It is thus possible to mount a cover on the fixing device, the cover being provided with at least one inner boss intended to engage in said at least one recess of the hoop.
  • the combination of the recess and the boss form a snap fastening system for a good hold of the hood on the fastener.
  • the deformation of the hoop which generates an outer recess and an inner projecting profile serves both an intermediate and / or final fixing of the hoop on the ring and a temporary fixing of a cover on the hoop.
  • the ring comprises an upper peripheral ring and a skirt which extends downwards from the crown, the skirt forming segments which are separated by slots, each segment forms at least one hooking head which projects inwards, said at least one housing being formed at the level of the crown.
  • the invention also defines a method of mounting a fixing device as defined above on a tank opening provided with a hooking shoulder, wherein said at least one projecting profile remains engaged in said at least one housing until the gripping heads are engaged under the hooking shoulder of the opening of the tank.
  • the fixing device of the invention is intended to be permanently mounted on an opening 41 of a fluid reservoir 4.
  • the reservoir may be identical in all the embodiments of the invention. invention. However, it can also present with different shapes, colors or aspects.
  • the opening 41 is here formed by a neck 40 which is connected to a shoulder 44 which already forms a portion of the body of the reservoir for containing fluid.
  • the neck 40 protrudes from this shoulder 44 and internally defines the opening 41.
  • the neck 40 has an axial symmetry with respect to an axis of symmetry X.
  • the neck 40 comprises an inner wall which defines the opening 41 This inner wall may be cylindrical or slightly recessed. It may for example have a narrowed opening section below which the inner wall of the neck is slightly dimmed.
  • the neck also has an upper peripheral edge 42 at which can be formed a sealing ring 421 which protrudes upwards.
  • the neck 40 forms a peripheral reinforcement 423 which protrudes outwards.
  • This reinforcement 423 connects the lower part of the neck via a shoulder 43 which is oriented downwardly and outwardly.
  • This shoulder 43 will serve as an attachment zone for the various fixing devices of the invention.
  • the design of this neck 40 is quite conventional for a tank made of glass, or even plastic.

  • a return spring 33 may for example push the dispensing head 32 into its rest position.
  • This design for a dispensing member, whether it is a pump or a valve, is quite classic. In any case, the particular design of the dispensing member is not critical at all for the present invention.

Due to the presence of the reentrant shoulder 113, the inner wall 122 of the skirt 12 is situated radially further out than the inner wall 112 of the skirt 12. In other words, the diameter of the skirt 12 at its inner wall 122 is greater than the internal diameter of the ring 11 at its level. internal wall 112.
