Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a two-component pump capable of equipping a dispenser intended mainly for liquid or pasty cosmetic or pharmaceutical products and applies specifically to samples of such products.
  • the prior art FR 2 510 069 discloses all the technical features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • Traditional distributors like the one described in the FR 2 510 069 , are generally equipped with a reservoir and a pump cooperating on the one hand with a manual actuating element of the push button type and provided, on the other hand, with an ejection orifice.
  • the present invention aims to solve the technical problems of the prior art.
  • said pump consists of a one-piece body which comprises, on the one hand, a base capping said reservoir and having an intake port and, on the other hand, a valve mounted on said base via a hinge associated with an elastic return means allowing, by pressing on the element d actuation, the reversible tilting of said valve to said base, to open the ejection port and simultaneously close the inlet port.
  • said valve carries two sealed shutters respectively of the inlet orifice and the ejection orifice.
  • said shutters are constituted by bosses whose dimensions allow a tight cooperation with respectively the ejection and intake orifices.
  • said shutters are mounted on either side of a triangular link.
  • said hinge consists of a hinge connected to the angle of said link.
  • said hinge is constituted by a spring-effect connecting strip.
  • said valve comprises a control lever on which the actuating element is able to come into bearing contact to cause it to tilt.
  • the actuating element is provided with an elastic bellows forming resilient return means of the valve.
  • this actuating element is made in one piece with the upper part of the reservoir.
  • the inner wall of the actuating element carries at least one pull tab of said valve.
  • said body comprises two lateral bearings flanking and / or supporting said valve.
  • At least one of said bearings has a longitudinal groove formed on its inner wall for the passage of said pull tab.
  • said base comprises a lateral sealing skirt radially clamping against the inner wall of the actuating element or the reservoir.
  • the upper part of the valve has an inclined face facilitating the bearing contact of the actuating element.
  • the pump of the invention offers a reliable and economical technical solution to the problems posed by the packaging of the prior art.
  • this pump may have only two pieces of simple structure that can be molded and assembled easily and quickly and therefore automated.
  • this pump has only plastic parts whose compatibility with cosmetics and pharmaceuticals is ensured.
  • the pump of the invention is intended for the packaging and delivery of cosmetic or pharmaceutical liquid or gel products and more particularly samples or low doses of these products.
  • distributors of liquid cosmetics or pharmaceutical products comprise a reservoir R and a pump mounted at least partially inside the reservoir and cooperating with a manual actuating element 2 provided with an ejection orifice 20 as shown in external view on the figure 1 .
  • the embodiment of the dispenser of the invention as shown in the figures is intended for use without air intake.
  • the pump according to the invention consists of a body 1 in one piece and which is made, for example, by means of an injection molding process.
  • the body 1 comprises, on the one hand, a base 11 capping said reservoir R and having an inlet port 10 and, on the other hand, a single valve 12 connected to said base by an articulation here under form of a hinge 13.
  • the body 1 is configured, in a subsequent step, in operating position by flap of the valve 12 above the base 11 while maintaining the hinge 13 slightly under stress, as shown in FIGS. Figures 3A and 3B .
  • This body 1 is then trapped in this configuration under the actuating element 2 in the upper part of the tank R.
  • the base 11 comprises a lateral sealing skirt 17 coming in radial clamping against the inner wall of the actuating element 2 or the reservoir R.
  • the upper part of the valve 12 comprises a control lever 14 on which the actuating element 2 is capable of coming into bearing contact to cause its forced tilting downwards, from a sealed position of the orifice of ejection 20.
  • This tilting which is reversible has the effect of opening the ejection orifice 20 and simultaneously closing the inlet orifice 10.
  • the lever 14 has an inclined face 14a facilitating the bearing contact of the actuating element 2.
  • the face 14a is optionally provided with a central cavity 14b, as shown, in particular, on the Figures 3A and 3B , intended to limit the effects due to the withdrawal of the plastic material during its cooling after molding.
  • the hinge 13 consists of a transverse strip or a thin web.
  • the single valve 12 carries two sealed shutters respectively of the inlet port 10 and the ejection port 20.
  • These shutters consist of bosses 12a, 12b, here in the form of spherical caps, whose dimensions and in particular the diameters allow the tight cooperation with respectively the orifices of ejection and admission and which are mounted on both sides of A triangular link 15.
  • the rod 15 is connected by its angle (here an angle of about 90 °) to the connecting band forming said hinge 13.
  • the body 1 comprises two bearings 16 flanking said valve 12 and ensuring its lateral setting.
  • the articulation of the valve is made in the form of pivots supported by the lateral bearings.
  • the actuating element 2 has an upper face 22 for the manual support and is provided with an elastic return means of the valve here in the form of a resilient bellows 21 having a spring effect which is formed on the side wall connecting to the R tank.
  • the actuating element 2 is made in one piece with the upper part of the reservoir R.
  • FIGS. 4A to 4D represent a sectional view of a dispenser equipped with a pump of the invention during the various phases of its operation.
  • the hinge 13 may, by shape memory, either in addition to or as a replacement for the bellows 21, facilitate or ensure the resilient return of the valve 12 in the sealed position of the ejection orifice 20 to the a spring when the support on the actuating element 2 ceases.
  • the shutter 12b is then sealingly engaged in the ejection orifice 20 in the manner of a plug while the inlet port 10 is open.
  • the compartment C located between the base 11 and the lower face of the actuating element is filled with liquid product and constitutes a dosing chamber.
  • the actuating element 2 carries here at least one and, preferably, two symmetrical tabs 24 of traction of the control lever 14 of the valve 12 to pull it up through the action of the spring bellows 21 and thus allow both to ensure the sealing of the ejection port 20 in the dispenser rest position (arrow Figure 4A ) and then facilitate the return of the valve 12 in the same rest position when releasing the manual support (arrow figure 4C ).
  • At least one and here the two bearings 16 of the base 11 have a longitudinal groove 16a formed on their inner wall for the passage of the traction tabs 24.
  • this support also causes the compression of the bellows 21 and the reduction of the volume of the chamber C leading to the escape of a dose of pressurized product outside via the discharge port 20 (gray arrow).
  • This dose corresponds substantially to the volume of product delivered during the tilting stroke of the valve 12 until the shutter 12a abuts against the orifice 10.
  • valve 12 leads to the closure of the ejection orifice 20, the simultaneous opening of the inlet port 10 and, because of the absence of air intake, to the joint rise of the piston bottom F in the tank R, in contact with the product.
