Definitions

  • the invention relates to a discharge device for flowable media, with a serving for storing fluid media container having a container opening on which a WälzSystemISS is arranged, the medium from the media container to the outside transporting rolling elements and a rolling element, a part of the rolling body Has WälzMechzie enclosing circumferentially, wherein the Wälzkörpenlique has a container-distal sealing part, on which there is an annular sealing seat for the rolling elements, and wherein a releasably connectable to the media container closure cap is provided, which encloses the Wälz phenomena observed in a closed position.
  • a discharge device according to the preamble of claim 1 is in the US 5 810 495 A disclosed.
  • a discharge device of the type mentioned is known, with a medium container for flowable medium, on which a Wälzianus, which is also referred to as Fitment sits.
  • the Wälzianus carries a rolling element in the form of a ball, can be transported by the rolling medium from the media container to the outside.
  • the Wälzoasazi also has radially inwardly projecting spring segments which press the ball in abutment with a sealing seat.
  • a closure cap which can be screwed onto the media container, wherein the closure cap is designed dome-shaped.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a discharge device for flowable media of the type mentioned above, with which a media-tight seal between the rolling elements and WälzMechuch is ensured even in the closed state with the cap.
  • the discharge device is characterized in that the closure cap has loading means by which in the closed position of the closure cap the container-distal sealing part of the roller carrier provided with the sealing seat is forced radially inward onto the rolling element to form a media-tight seal in the region of the sealing seat.
  • the closure cap thus exerts an additional sealing function so that the sealing effect already present at the sealing seat between the rolling body and the rolling element carrier is enhanced.
  • This ensures that the discharge device can also be used without problems as a so-called "headrest", since the additional sealing function exerted by the loading means of the closure cap ensures a media-tight seal. It is thus prevented that medium from the media container enters the cap and can accumulate there.
  • the discharge device can therefore fulfill the criterion of complete residual deprivation and can additionally be handled cleanly and comfortably.
  • the Wälzoasazi has, arranged on a container-proximal base portion, engaging the rolling elements spring elements which press the rolling elements with spring force in a closed position in contact with the sealing seat, wherein the rolling elements is movable in use of the discharge in an open position, in between the outside of the rolling body and the sealing seat, a passage or a gap for medium is opened.
  • the spring elements ensure that the rolling element is always pressed when not in use of the discharge in abutment with the sealing seat. When the cap is removed and the dispenser is not in use, leakage from the media container is therefore prevented.
  • a plurality of segment-like spring elements oriented radially inwardly from an inner side of the base section are provided, wherein the base section with the segment-like spring elements can be located within a neck portion of the media container having the container opening.
  • the base part of the Wälzkörpenys in the container opening be plugged.
  • the segment-like spring elements are supported in the radially outward direction by the surrounding neck portion of the media container.
  • the segment-like spring elements are located above the media container.
  • the sealing section and base section of the rolling element carrier are integrally connected to one another. It can therefore be provided a one-piece Wälzianus, whereby the Wälz stresses responded or the Wälz stresses-Fitment can have a total of only two parts. This partial reduction causes a reduction of the production costs and consequently the production costs. In principle, however, it is also possible to use two-part WälzMecha, such as in the WO 2004/098347 A1 disclosed.
  • the urging means have a ring-like loading projection projecting radially inward on the inner wall of the closure cap and circulating on the inner circumference. This ensures that the sealing part is uniformly pressurized on its outer side, whereby the sealing seat evenly radially they can be pressed onto the rolling element.
  • a plurality of annularly spaced apart, over the inner circumference in particular regularly distributed arranged projection segments are provided.
  • the region of the loading-action projection facing the media container is formed in the manner of a ramp.
  • the loading projection is expediently shaped out of the material of the closure cap. In principle, however, it is also possible that the loading projection is inserted as a separate part in the cap.
  • the closure cap has a standing surface for the upright position of the discharge device.
  • a radially inwardly projecting from an inner wall of the sealing part radially inward, formed of the same material as the sealing part sealing lip is formed on the sealing seat.
  • the FIGS. 1 to 5 show a preferred embodiment of the discharge device according to the invention for flowable media.
  • the discharge device 11 has a medium container 12 for storing fluid media.
  • the media container 12 is suitably made of plastic material, for example polypropylene.
  • the media container 12 is manufactured by means of plastic injection molding.
  • the media container 12 has a base portion 13 with bottom 14, wherein integrally connected to the base portion 13 at the bottom distal end of a neck portion 15, at the upper end of a container opening 16 is provided.
  • On the outer circumference of the neck portion 15 is an external thread 30th
  • a WälzSystem Surprise 17 is arranged, which has a medium of media container 12 to the outside transporting rolling elements 18 in the form of a ball and the rolling elements 18 and a part of the rolling element 18 circumferentially enclosing WälzSystemitati 19.
  • the rolling elements 18 is expediently also made of polypropylene. However, it is also possible to use 12 different plastic material compared to the media container, for example polyethylene.
  • the roller body carrier 19 has a base portion 20 of substantially cylindrical shape, wherein the outer diameter of the base portion 20 is smaller than the inner diameter of the container opening 16.
  • the base portion 20 of the Wälz stresses deviss 19 is thus located within the neck portion 15 of the media container 12. Conveniently, the base portion 20th of the rolling element 19 is inserted into the container opening 16 and is clamped there by the wall of the neck portion 15.
  • segment-like spring elements 21a, 21b, 21c, 21d are on the inside of the base portion 20 radially inwardly aligned, segment-like spring elements 21a, 21b, 21c, 21d.
  • the segment-like spring elements 21 are configured tongue-like and each have on their front side a curvature, which is adapted to the curvature of the rolling element 18.
  • the spring elements 21a to 21d thus act on the rolling elements 18 and exert a spring force directed away from the media container 12.
  • four spring elements 21a to 21d arranged at equal intervals over the inner periphery of the base section 20 and located at the same height are provided. However, it is of course possible to choose a different number of spring elements 21 and another arrangement of the spring elements 21.
  • the spring elements 21a to 21d are thus within the Neck portion 15 of the media container 12, whereby a support of the spring elements 21a to 21d by the base portion 20 enclosing wall of the neck portion 15 takes place. This prevents that the base portion 20 of the Wälz stressess 19 deformed, for example by frequent use of the discharge device 11 radially outward, which would not be guaranteed that the spring force of the spring elements 21 acts reliably on the rolling elements 18.
  • a sealing part 22 To the base part 20 connects in the direction away from the media container 12 in one piece a sealing part 22, with a relation to the base portion 20 larger inner diameter. As a result of the increase in diameter arises between the base portion 20 and the sealing portion 22 a step-like transition, thereby forming a radially extending annular abutment surface 23 on the outside, which serves as Einsteckanschlag for WälzSystem 1993 19.
  • a sealing seat 24 which is in contact with the outer surface of the rolling element 18.
  • annular designed sealing lip 25 is formed at the sealing seat 24 from the inner wall of the sealing portion 22 radially inwardly projecting.
  • the sealing lip 25 is made of the same material as the remaining Wälz Eisenange 19. As a material suitable for this plastic material, such as polypropylene or polyethylene.
  • the discharge device 11 also has a closure cap 26, which encloses the WälzArchitect Surprise 17 in a closed position.
  • the cap 26 is suitably made of the same material as the media container 12, so preferably made of polypropylene.
  • the closure cap 26 has a side wall 27, on the inside of which there is an internal thread 28 which can be screwed onto the external thread 30 of the media container 12.
  • the closure cap 26 also has loading means, by means of which in the closed position of the closure cap the container-distal sealing part 22 of the rolling body carrier 19, which is provided with the sealing seat 24, is pressed radially inwardly onto the rolling body 18 to form a media-tight seal in the region of the sealing seat 24.
  • loading means on the inside of the side wall 27 radially inwardly projecting, on the inner circumference circumferential, ring-like BeaufSchlagungsvorsprung 29 is provided.
  • the loading projection 29 is thus in the closed position of the closure cap 26 in the region of the sealing seat and presses the sealing portion 22 with the sealing lip 25 on the surface of the rolling element 18.
  • the media container 12 facing portion 31 of the biasing projection 29 is configured like a ramp, in particular in the form of a Cone.
  • the ramp-like region 31 of the Beauftschungsvorsprungs 29 thus slides when screwing the cap 26 along the outside of the sealing part 22, whereby the sealing part 22 is pressed together with the sealing lip 25 uniformly on the outer surface of the rolling element 18.
  • the sealing part or the sealing lip 25 is therefore pressed immediately in the right direction radially inward.
  • the rolling element 18 is thus pressed by the spring force of the spring elements 21 into contact with the sealing seat 24, whereby a sealing effect is achieved.
  • the cap 26 has an additional sealing function, namely it presses the sealing part 24 with the sealing lip 25 radially inward whereby the seal is improved.
  • the cap 26 has at its upper end a base 32, so that the Discharge device 11 can be placed in a secure upside down stand.
