Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cartridge according to the preamble of claim 1 for containing and dispensing products in general.
- cartridges for containing products which are, generally, provided by a plurality of components which are contained separately in a bag arranged inside a rigid outer body, are currently commercially available.
- the bag is closed by a clip or fastening ring, which must be removed when the product is to be dispensed in order to use it.
- the bag can have a relatively short inlet portion, with the risk that the two components might mix within the cartridge, making it impossible to reuse the cartridge.
- EP-A-1 849 529 discloses a cartridge arrangement comprising a frangible portion housed within a guide tube with an end of the frangible portion seated by a clip.
- a cap attached to an end of the guide tube by a screw thread, and unscrewing of the cap urges arms, having a portion seated behind the clip, away from the guided tube thereby opening the frangible portion.
- a cartridge according to the preamble of claim 1 is also known from the document WO 2007128996 A1 .
- the aim of the invention is to eliminate the drawbacks noted above by providing a cartridge for containing and dispensing products in general which allows to open the bag without having to resort to external tools and without having difficulties in removing the dispensing end of the bag.
- an object of the invention is to provide a cartridge in which it is possible to remove the closure clip completely, so that it does not remain inside the cartridge and thus does not constitute a hindrance for correct dispensing of the products.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a cartridge which, thanks to its particular constructive characteristics, is capable of giving the greatest assurances of reliability and safety in use.
- Still another object of the present invention is to provide a cartridge which can be obtained easily starting from commonly commercially available elements and materials and is also competitive from a merely economical standpoint.
- the cartridge for containing and dispensing products in general according to the invention comprises an outer body 2, which generally has a cylindrical shape and is made of substantially rigid plastic material and inside which there is a bag 3 which is advantageously of the type provided internally with two or more components which are accommodated in separate compartments formed by the bag.
- the bag 3 has, at the dispensing end, a clip 10, which is typically formed by a flattened metallic ring, which clamps the end that is arranged at an inlet 11 provided at the axial end of the body 2.
- a peculiarity of the invention consists in that at least one extractor 20 is provided which can engage the clip 10 and is accommodated in the inlet 11 with one of its portions, which arranges itself outside said inlet so as to allow to grip the extractor.
- the extractor 20 is constituted by a fork-like portion 21, which defines a recessed seat 22, which arranges itself below the clip 10, with the end of the bag arranged outwardly.
- the extractor 20 has upright portions 23 which end with a connecting portion 24, which constitutes the grip element for the extractor.
- an upper crossmember 25 and a lower crossmember 26 are provided and join the uprights.
- the uprights and the fork-like portion 21 in practice constitute a guiding element for the correct translational motion of the extractor 20 within the inlet, so as to allow extraction of the clip, which is arranged, as mentioned earlier, above the fork 21 and is coupled to containment notches 27 provided on the internal parts of the uprights 23.
- the extractor 20 is arranged in the inlet so that the connecting portion 24 protrudes from the inlet and is arranged below a closure cap 30.
- a conventional dispensing nozzle 40 is applied and the cartridge is ready for use, and the arrangement of the end of the bag at the inlet avoids the formation of undue mixing of components, which would cause problems in subsequent reuses of the cartridge.
- the materials used, as well as the contingent shapes and dimensions may be any according to requirements.
