Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for the cladding of a liquid product dispensing member.
  • the dispensing members are generally complex and small technical assemblies that can be mounted on several types of packaging. These are, for example, spray nozzles, valves, drops, etc.
  • the push button has elements for cooperating functionally with the dispensing member and in particular, the downstream end of the exhaust duct, their relative positioning must be provided in a precise and stable manner.
  • the present invention aims to solve these technical problems satisfactorily.
  • a device comprising, on the one hand, a compartment delimited respectively by a back wall and a front wall pierced with an outlet orifice and, on the other hand, at least one elastic return member carried by said member on the opposite side to the downstream end and which is retractable to allow the introduction of said member into said compartment and then bear on the back wall to engage and maintain the downstream end of said duct in said outlet port.
  • the device further comprises an abutment element consisting of a plate supporting said conduit and whose profile is adapted to that of the front wall against which said plate bears.
  • downstream end of said duct protrudes outside the housing.
  • said elastic return element consists of at least one flexible lug having a lower guiding surface, inclined at rest relative to the cross section of the downstream end of said duct and intended to come into sliding contact with the back wall of the housing during the introduction of the dispenser member.
  • said tab has a flat end intended to come into stable contact against the back face of the housing when the downstream end of the conduit is in the axis of the outlet orifice.
  • said compartment comprises a bottom connecting the dorsal and frontal walls and against which said member abuts when the downstream end of the duct is engaged in the outlet orifice.
  • said tab is connected to said member via a hinge-shaped fillet.
  • said compartment comprises a bottom connecting the dorsal and frontal walls.
  • said member is in abutment against the bottom when the downstream end of the conduit is in the axis of the outlet orifice.
  • said compartment is formed in an outer casing forming a push button.
  • the device comprises two elastic return elements disposed on either side of said duct.
  • the device of the invention makes it possible to automatically assemble a dispensing member with an outer casing.
  • the means for guiding the member make it possible to guarantee accurate positioning of the parts with relatively small mounting strain forces.
  • This assembly is performed, in addition, reversibly and it is possible to separate the parts after assembly.
  • the device shown in the figures is intended for the cladding of a liquid product dispensing member 1 from a packaging (not shown).
  • This member 1 comprises in particular a discharge duct 10 whose upstream end 10a can be connected to product sampling means (not shown) such as a pump, and the downstream end 10b opens to the outside, for example via a spray nozzle.
  • product sampling means such as a pump
  • the upstream ends 10a and downstream 10b are carried by perpendicular pipe sections.
  • the device of the invention comprises a compartment 22, formed here inside an outer casing 2, and delimited respectively by a rear wall 21 and a front wall 23 pierced with an outlet orifice 20.
  • the housing 2 may form, fully or partially, a push button.
  • the device of the invention also comprises at least one and, in the embodiment shown, preferably two elastic return elements 11 carried by the member 1, on the opposite side to the downstream end 10b and arranged symmetrically on the other hand. other of the duct 10.
  • the member 1 is furthermore provided with a stop plate 13 supporting the duct 10.
  • the profile of the plate 13 is adapted to that of the internal face of the front wall 23 of the compartment 22 against which said plate comes in support at the end of assembly.
  • downstream end 10b of the duct 10 projects outside the casing 1.
  • the return elements 11 consist here of flexible tabs having a lower face 11a of guide and a flat end 11b.
  • These tabs are connected to the body of the dispensing member via leaves 12a forming hinges which are delimited by recesses 12b.
  • the bearing surface of the flat end 11b is widened.
  • the face 11a is inclined at rest (FIG. 3A) relative to the cross section of the end 10b of the duct 10. As suggested by FIGS. 3A and 3B, the face 11a bears first against the upper edge of the wall 21, then due to the vertical forces applied to the member 1 (see arrow in Figure 3B), the lugs 11 are folded progressively inward by deformation under stresses of the hinges 12a, thanks to the cam effect of the inclined face 11a while the member 1 enters the compartment 20 of the housing 2.
  • This phase which may be accompanied by a click, causes the plate 13 to abut against the front wall 23 and the flat ends 11b of the lugs 11 in stable contact against the back wall 21, as shown in FIG. 3C.
  • the compartment 22 has a bottom 24 connecting the dorsal 21 and front 23 walls and on which here abuts the member 1 at the end of assembly.
  • the position of the bottom preferably corresponds to the alignment of the downstream end 10b of the duct 10 with the axis of the outlet orifice 20, which makes it possible to obtain a correct positioning, particularly when the diameter of the the orifice is greater than that of the conduit.
