- the ammonium alum crystals have a density of 1.65
- the potassium alum crystals have a density of 1.73, the difference is minimal, and the invention therefore applies to any type of saturated solution. 'alum.
- Devices composed of a vial, preferably transparent, containing a saturated solution of alum, in which are bathed undissolved alum crystals, and which are provided with a manual pusher pump for projecting spray jets from the solution to the part of the body that the user aims at.
- a manual pusher pump for projecting spray jets from the solution to the part of the body that the user aims at.
- said pump is removably attached to the top of the bottle, usually by a thread.
- the solvent of the solution is preferably water.
- Still other documents propose to include in the bottle a second sealed chamber and more or less flexible containing the solution to be dispensed, which deforms as the liquid it contains is pumped.
- the lack of these solutions lies in particular in the need to introduce and fix in the bottle a second chamber, which seems rather complex.
- the present invention aims to provide an apparatus that avoids the aforementioned drawbacks, that is to say an apparatus that allows to extract almost all the alum solution while minimizing the risk of blockage of the pump by crystals , as well as a use of the bottle in all positions, even completely reversed.
- the apparatus for applying an alum solution according to the invention comprising at least a first chamber containing a saturated solution of alum and crystals of alum, a pump suitable for actuated by at least one pusher and making it possible to emit part of the solution to a part of the body, the pump having at least one inlet connecting the pump to the first chamber, is characterized in that it comprises at least one second chamber in the upper part of which said inlet opens directly or via at least one duct provided with at least one suction point, said second chamber extending towards the bottom of said first chamber, at least one passage being arranged in the lower portion of said second chamber so as to communicate the interior volume of said second chamber with said first chamber, so that the saturated alum solution and the alum crystals at least partially fill said second chamber, said upper part being attached directly or indirectly in a sealed manner to the top of the first chamber or to the pump, so as to prevent any transfer said alum solution between said chambers by a route other than said passage.
- the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that the interior volume of the second chamber between the inlet and the highest point of the passage represents at least three times the volume of alum solution that the pump can extract during a single stroke of the pusher.
- the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that the second chamber has the shape of a hollow cylinder, the passage being constituted by the lower opening of said cylinder.
- the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that a filter is fixed before the suction point.
- the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that the distance between the bottom of the second chamber and the bottom of the the first chamber is smaller than the inner diameter of said cylinder.
- the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that the second chamber is transparent.
- the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that the filter is placed in the upper part of the second chamber.
- the apparatus comprises at least a first chamber 1, whose walls are preferably transparent, that is to say practically made of plastic material or glass, and which is provided with a threaded neck on which is screwed a manual pump 4.
- This pump 4 shown schematically, and in particular without the springs, is of a current model. It is actuated by a pusher 5.
- the first chamber 1 is filled with a saturated solution of alum 2.
- the solvent is preferably water.
- alum crystals 3 which ensure a constant saturation of the solution, even after several additions of water in the chamber, until their complete dissolution.
- the filling of the bottle is done by the neck, after unscrewing the pump. This is manually operated by the pusher 5.
- the details of the pump are not shown here.
- the inlet 6 of the pump is extended by a conduit 7 which moves the suction point 16 at the end of this conduit.
- This conduit has a diameter corresponding substantially to that of the valve ball.
- a suction tube 15 is placed in the bore of the conduit 7, and extends to the bottom of the bottle, as is the case in the document PCT / CH8900104 Verdan .
- these fine ducts forcefully suck the mini-crystals present in the solution.
- the conduit drives the mini-crystals into the pump, preventing it from operating properly.
- the apparatus comprises at least a second chamber 8, which here has the shape of a cylindrical pipe, but which could have other shapes.
- the second chamber surrounds by its upper end 9 the bottom of the pump 4. There is no gap between this upper end 9 and the bottom of the pump, so that the fixing between the bottom of the pump and the upper end 9 is sealed and prevents any passage of the alum solution from the top of the second chamber 8.
- the second chamber 8 extends to the bottom 10 of the first chamber 1.
- a passage 11 however opens to pass the solution through the lower end 12. In this case, the passage 11 is simply constituted by the lower opening of said second chamber.
- the solution can pass inside 13 of the second chamber 8 through this passage 11 because of the distance, preferably quite small, which is formed between the lower end 12 of the second chamber and the bottom 10 of the first chamber .
- the volume of the second chamber It is necessary and essential for the volume of the second chamber to be large enough and to size it so that the volume of alum solution 2 extracted during a single complete thrust of the pusher 5 only represents a relatively small fraction of the volume contained in the second chamber 8.
- a single push of the pusher carries all the contents of the tube, and even more. It follows a very fast current, which drives the small crystals towards the entrance of the pump and the valve, and tends to clog them.
- a thrust of the pusher causes only a portion of the solution which is located at the top of the second chamber. A current occurs of course, but it is almost zero and much less strong than the current produced in the known devices.
- the amount of alum solution 2 that is inside the second chamber is sufficient to provide multiple applications in the inverted position where the pump is down.
- the internal volume 13 of the second chamber 8 represents at least three times the volume of alum solution that the pump can extract during a single stroke of the pusher 5, that is to say during operation of pushing the pusher 5 from its highest point to its lowest point, without reverse movement, that is to say again without the user lifts the finger during the operation.
- This allows the user, for example, to easily use the device for application on the feet which generally requires an inverted position of the bottle.
- the invention which can be easily produced with known means, is used in the cosmetics industry and is used for the application of a solution of alum as a scavenger.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention a trait au domaine des appareils destinés à appliquer des solutions saturées d'alun, sur la peau, essentiellement comme déodorants, ces solutions pouvant bien entendu contenir d'autres ingrédients, tels que de l'alcool, des agents conservateurs, ou tout autre agent, par exemple des agents antiperspirants. La solution étant saturée, elle contient nécessairement des cristaux d'alun non dissous. Les cristaux d'alun d'ammonium ayant une densité de 1,65, et les cristaux d'alun de potasse une densité de 1,73, la différence est minime et l'invention s'applique donc à tout type de solution saturée d'alun.The present invention relates to the field of devices intended to apply saturated solutions of alum, on the skin, essentially as deodorants, these solutions may of course contain other ingredients, such as alcohol, preservatives, or any other agent, for example antiperspirants. The solution being saturated, it necessarily contains undissolved alum crystals. As the ammonium alum crystals have a density of 1.65, and the potassium alum crystals have a density of 1.73, the difference is minimal, and the invention therefore applies to any type of saturated solution. 'alum.
On connaît des dispositifs composés d'un flacon, de préférence transparent, contenant une solution saturée d'alun, dans laquelle baignent des cristaux d'alun non dissous, et qui sont munis d'une pompe manuelle à poussoir permettant de projeter des jets pulvérisés de la solution vers la partie du corps que vise l'utilisateur. Comme dans l'immense majorité des appareils pulvérisateurs à pompe manuelle, ladite pompe est fixée de manière amovible sur le haut du flacon, en général par un pas de vis. Le solvant de la solution est de préférence de l'eau. Lorsque le niveau de la solution d'alun est bas, il suffit à l'utilisateur de dévisser la pompe et de remplir le flacon d'eau. Une partie des cristaux présents dans le flacon se dissout, jusqu'au point de saturation. Comme l'eau est disponible presque partout, le plus souvent gratuitement, l'utilisateur peut recharger son appareil plusieurs fois, jusqu'au moment où la réserve de cristaux est complètement dissoute. Cela permet de donner à l'appareil des dimensions réduites, ce qui le rend aisément transportable, et par conséquent pratique. De plus, le point de saturation de la solution croît avec la température. L'effet déodorant de l'application croît donc avec la température, ce qui correspond aux nécessités naturelles. Un tel appareil, proposé dans la demande
Par ailleurs, c'est un problème général, et dont la solution a fait l'objet de nombreuses propositions, que de permettre à l'utilisateur d'employer son nébuliseur non seulement dans une position dans laquelle la pompe est en haut, mais également lorsque le flacon est incliné ou retourné, et que la pompe est en bas. A cet égard, l'idée de couper le tube qui alimente la pompe à mi-hauteur du flacon constitue une solution partielle : elle fonctionne seulement jusqu'au moment où le flacon est à moitié vide. Parmi les autres solutions proposées, on peut mentionner le document
Dans sa forme d'exécution la plus générale, l'appareil pour l'application d'une solution d'alun selon l'invention, comprenant au moins une première chambre contenant une solution saturée d'alun et des cristaux d'alun, une pompe apte à être actionnée par au moins un poussoir et permettant d'émettre une partie de la solution vers une partie du corps, la pompe présentant au moins une entrée reliant la pompe à la première chambre, est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend au moins une seconde chambre dans la partie supérieure de laquelle ladite entrée débouche directement ou par l'intermédiaire d'au moins un conduit pourvu d'au moins un point de succion, ladite seconde chambre s'étendant vers le fond de ladite première chambre, au moins un passage étant ménagé dans la partie inférieure de ladite seconde chambre de façon à faire communiquer le volume intérieur de ladite seconde chambre avec ladite première chambre, de sorte que la solution saturée d'alun et les cristaux d'alun emplissent au moins partiellement ladite seconde chambre, ladite partie supérieure étant fixée directement ou indirectement de manière étanche au haut de la première chambre ou à la pompe, dé façon à empêcher tout transfert de ladite solution d'alun entre lesdites chambres par une autre voie que ledit passage.In its most general embodiment, the apparatus for applying an alum solution according to the invention, comprising at least a first chamber containing a saturated solution of alum and crystals of alum, a pump suitable for actuated by at least one pusher and making it possible to emit part of the solution to a part of the body, the pump having at least one inlet connecting the pump to the first chamber, is characterized in that it comprises at least one second chamber in the upper part of which said inlet opens directly or via at least one duct provided with at least one suction point, said second chamber extending towards the bottom of said first chamber, at least one passage being arranged in the lower portion of said second chamber so as to communicate the interior volume of said second chamber with said first chamber, so that the saturated alum solution and the alum crystals at least partially fill said second chamber, said upper part being attached directly or indirectly in a sealed manner to the top of the first chamber or to the pump, so as to prevent any transfer said alum solution between said chambers by a route other than said passage.
Dans une première forme particulière d'exécution de l'invention, l'appareil selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce que le volume intérieur de la seconde chambre entre l'entrée et le point le plus haut du passage représente au moins trois fois le volume de solution d'alun que la pompe peut extraire au cours d'une seule course du poussoir.In a first particular embodiment of the invention, the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that the interior volume of the second chamber between the inlet and the highest point of the passage represents at least three times the volume of alum solution that the pump can extract during a single stroke of the pusher.
Dans une deuxième forme particulière d'exécution de l'invention, applicable à la précédente aussi bien qu'à la forme générale, l'appareil selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce que la seconde chambre a la forme d'un cylindre creux, le passage étant constitué par l'ouverture inférieure dudit cylindre.In a second particular embodiment of the invention, applicable to the preceding as well as to the general form, the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that the second chamber has the shape of a hollow cylinder, the passage being constituted by the lower opening of said cylinder.
Dans une troisième forme particulière d'exécution de l'invention, applicable aux précédentes aussi bien qu'à la forme générale, l'appareil selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce qu'un filtre est fixé avant le point de succion.In a third particular embodiment of the invention, applicable to the preceding as well as to the general form, the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that a filter is fixed before the suction point.
Dans une quatrième forme particulière d'exécution de l'invention, applicable aux précédentes aussi bien qu'à la forme générale, l'appareil selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce que la distance entre le bas de la seconde chambre et le fond de la première chambre est inférieure au diamètre intérieur dudit cylindre.In a fourth particular embodiment of the invention, applicable to the above as well as to the general form, the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that the distance between the bottom of the second chamber and the bottom of the the first chamber is smaller than the inner diameter of said cylinder.

Les dessins représentent deux formes d'exécution de l'invention.
- La
figure 1 est une coupe verticale d'un appareil dans une première forme d'exécution de l'invention, en position verticale, la pompe étant en haut. - La
figure 2 est une vue agrandie de la partie inférieur de la pompe représentée à lafigure 1 , avec la seconde chambre qui l'entoure selon l'invention. - La
figure 3 est une coupe comme celle de lafigure 1 , mais dans laquelle l'appareil est en position inclinée, la pompe étant en bas, et à l'entrée de laquelle on a ajouté un filtre, afin d'éviter l'intrusion de mini-cristaux dans la pompe.
- The
figure 1 is a vertical section of a device in a first embodiment of the invention, in a vertical position, the pump being at the top. - The
figure 2 is an enlarged view of the lower part of the pump shown atfigure 1 , with the second chamber which surrounds it according to the invention. - The
figure 3 is a cut like that of thefigure 1 but in which the apparatus is in an inclined position, the pump being at the bottom, and at the inlet of which a filter has been added, in order to avoid the intrusion of mini-crystals into the pump.
L'appareil comprend au moins une première chambre 1, dont les parois sont de préférence transparentes, c'est-à-dire en pratique en matériau plastique ou en verre, et qui est pourvue d'un col fileté sur lequel vient se visser une pompe manuelle 4. Cette pompe 4, représentée schématiquement, et notamment sans les ressorts, est d'un modèle courant. Elle est actionnée par un poussoir 5. La première chambre 1 est remplie d'une solution saturée d'alun 2. Le solvant est de préférence de l'eau. Dans cette solution baignent des cristaux d'alun 3, qui assurent une saturation constante de la solution, même après plusieurs ajouts d'eau dans la chambre, jusqu'à leur dissolution complète. Bien entendu, le remplissage du flacon se fait par le col, après dévissage de la pompe. Celle-ci est actionnée manuellement par le poussoir 5. Les détails de la pompe ne sont pas représentés ici. L'entrée de la pompe 6, sous la bille qui fonctionne comme soupape, est cependant visible notamment à la
Pour éviter cet effet de bouchage, l'appareil selon l'invention comprend au moins une seconde chambre 8, qui a ici la forme d'un tuyau cylindrique, mais qui pourrait avoir d'autres formes. La seconde chambre entoure par son extrémité supérieure 9 le bas de la pompe 4. Il n'y a pas d'interstice entre cette extrémité supérieure 9 et le bas de la pompe, de sorte que la fixation entre le bas de la pompe et l'extrémité supérieure 9 est étanche et empêche tout passage de la solution d'alun par le haut de la seconde chambre 8. La seconde chambre 8 s'étend jusqu'au fond 10 de la première chambre 1. Un passage 11 s'ouvre cependant pour laisser passer la solution par cette extrémité inférieure 12. Dans le cas présent, le passage 11 est simplement constitué par l'ouverture inférieure de ladite seconde chambre. La solution peut passer à l'intérieur 13 de la seconde chambre 8 par ce passage 11 du fait de la distance, de préférence assez faible, qui est ménagée entre l'extrémité inférieure 12 de la seconde chambre et le fond 10 de la première chambre.To avoid this clogging effect, the apparatus according to the invention comprises at least a
Il est nécessaire et essentiel que le volume de la seconde chambre soit suffisamment important et de dimensionner celle-ci de telle sorte que le volume de solution d'alun 2 extrait au cours d'une seule poussée complète du poussoir 5 ne représente plus qu'une fraction relativement faible du volume contenu dans la seconde chambre 8. Dans les dispositifs actuellement connus, dans lesquels le tube de succion est fin, une seule poussée du poussoir emporte la totalité du contenu du tube, et même plus. Il s'ensuit un courant très rapide, qui entraîne les petits cristaux vers l'entrée de la pompe et de la soupape, et tend à les boucher. Au contraire, dans l'appareil selon l'invention, une poussée du poussoir n'entraîne qu'une portion de la solution qui est située en haut de la seconde chambre. Un courant se produit bien entendu, mais il est quasi nul et bien moins fort que le courant produit dans les dispositifs connus. Il s'ensuit que les petits cristaux ne sont presque pas entraînés dans la seconde chambre 8 et qu'ils ne montent pratiquement pas en direction de la pompe, ce qui élimine le risque que des cristaux soient présents autour du point de succion 16. En raison de la force de gravité, les cristaux restent au fond du flacon et ne sont jamais en contact avec le point de succion 16 de la pompe. Par contre; le liquide quant à lui restera dans la seconde chambre jusqu'à la hauteur du point de succion 16 même si le niveau du liquide est plus bas que ledit point de succion dans la première chambre. Cela est dû au fait que la seconde chambre 8 est fermée hermétiquement dans son point le plus haut, empêchant ainsi le liquide présent dans la pompe de s'évacuer, l'air ne pouvant pas entrer pour remplacer le liquide. La seconde chambre 8 restera ainsi pleine jusqu'à complète utilisation du liquide contenu dans la première chambre.It is necessary and essential for the volume of the second chamber to be large enough and to size it so that the volume of
Le bouchage partiel ou complet de la pompe est ainsi évité pratiquement complètement.Partial or complete blockage of the pump is thus avoided almost completely.
En outre, comme le montre la
De préférence, le volume intérieur 13 de la seconde chambre 8 représente au moins trois fois le volume de solution d'alun que la pompe peut extraire au cours d'une seule course du poussoir 5, c'est-à-dire pendant l'opération consistant à pousser le poussoir 5 de son point le plus haut à son point le plus bas, sans mouvement inverse, c'ést-à-dire encore sans que l'utilisateur relève le doigt pendant l'opération. Cela permet à l'utilisateur, par exemple, d'utiliser aisément l'appareil pour une application sur les pieds qui exige en général une position inversée du flacon.Preferably, the
La moindre baisse de la température dans une solution saturée d'alun entraîne la formation de mini-cristaux d'alun qui, selon la quantité, pourraient empêcher le bon fonctionnement de la pompe. Pour éviter ce risque, un filtre peut être inséré en amont du point de succion 16 de la pompe. Compte tenu de ce qui précède, il est important que le filtre soit placé le plus près possible du point de succion 16. On peut voir à la
L'invention, qui peut être produite aisément avec des moyens connus, est utilisable dans l'industrie cosmétique et sert à l'application d'une solution d'alun comme dédorant.The invention, which can be easily produced with known means, is used in the cosmetics industry and is used for the application of a solution of alum as a scavenger.
