Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cap according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • This cap is particularly intended to serve as a spray head for a spray.
  • the diffusers generally consist of a bottle provided with an aerosol valve and a cap provided with a push button for actuating the valve of the bottle.
  • a cap is provided on the base of the cap to hide the spray head. This cap is attached to the base by a hinge. Means are provided to keep the cap folded against the base, thus making the push button inaccessible.
  • a cap provided on the cap, opposite the hinge, allows by exerting pressure upwards to open the cap.
  • the means for retaining the cap are too flexible, it may open too easily, even when this is not desirable. If on the contrary they are too rigid, the user may have difficulty lifting the cap with the cap and may damage the nails.
  • the cap as unlocking means has the disadvantage of exceeding the envelope of the base. It may be hooked during storage or transport, for example in a toilet bag or in a purse, and the cap may inadvertently open into the bag at the risk of seeing the contents of the bottle s to spread there.
  • JP 2004352307 A a cap comprising a base and a cap attached to the base by a hinge.
  • the cap may be retained in the closed position by hooks on the base and cooperating with recesses made in the cap.
  • the base is provided with a nozzle and the cap of a sealing cylinder intended to cover the nozzle when the cap is folded down.
  • a flexible blade whose one end is fixed to the nozzle and the other end bears against the cylinder of nozzle cover.
  • This flexible blade has many disadvantages. For example, if the cap is too folded in the open position, the end of the blade which bears against the sealing cylinder may deviate from it and not return to its place during the closure of the cap.
  • the document JP 2003054601 discloses a device to be placed on a drink can.
  • the upper part, to be fixed on the face of the bobbin provided with the opening, is provided with a base, a cap connected to the base by a hinge and means for holding the cap in the closed position.
  • a straw mounted spring To facilitate the opening of the cap when the unlocking means are actuated, there is provided a straw mounted spring.
  • One end of the straw plunges into the bobbin while the other end bears against a curved insert fixed in the center of the cap when the latter is in the closed position.
  • These means for lifting the cap are particularly complicated and involve many parts. They are far too expensive to be used on a single-use vial.
  • this spring straw is supported on the front face of the base.
  • This device for lifting the cap could therefore not be used with a spray cap. Indeed, this straw would be supported on the push button and trigger the spraying as the cap is closed, which is contrary to the desired effect. Another disadvantage lies in the fact that the end of the straw that must enter the mouth of the user, and which therefore keeps leftover drinks and saliva, bears against the bottom of the cap. Finally, here again, the unlocking means protrude from the envelope of the base and may therefore be actuated inadvertently during transport or storage.
  • JP 09142511 a cap provided with a base, a cap and means for holding the cap in the closed position.
  • two Vertical spring blades on the base near the hinge and on the other hand two ribs inside the cap in front of the spring blades.
  • the ribs come to rest on the flat spring blades and bend.
  • these blades spring form a single piece with the cap and are made of the same material as the rest of said cap.
  • these blades are made of the same material as the base, usually polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE). In all cases, these materials have no shape memory and irreversibly deform if they undergo such bending.
  • the means for lifting the cap proposed by this document can not work more than once or twice, the blades do not return to their initial vertical position after being kept bent.
  • the spring blades have a necessarily reduced length which greatly limits their effectiveness.
  • the unlocking means protrude completely from the base and may therefore be actuated inadvertently.
  • the object of the invention is to facilitate the opening of the cap using means to lift that do not have the disadvantages mentioned above.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide unlocking means which can not be operated inadvertently during transport or storage.
  • the spring leaf (s) is particularly advantageous for the spring leaf (s) to be made of a material other than the base, the base being preferably made of polypropylene (PP) or of high or low density polyethylene (HDPE, LDPE) and the leaf or blades preferably in a good shape memory plastic such as polyoxymethylene (POM), polyamide (PA) or polypropylene terephthalate (PPT).
  • PP polypropylene
  • HDPE high or low density polyethylene
  • LDPE high or low density polyethylene
  • POM polyoxymethylene
  • PA polyamide
  • PPT polypropylene terephthalate
  • the leaf spring or blades can be overmolded on the base. It is also possible that the spring or blades is separate parts of the base on which they are fixed by mechanical anchoring means. It may be for example undercuts or seals.
  • the spring blade (s) are fixed in the lower part of the base opposite to the cap, slots can be made in the front surface of the base when it is provided with such a front surface to let the leaf or blades spring.
  • the first end is fixed on the base below the front surface of the base, the blade passes through the slot and comes to rest on the bottom of the cap when it is folded.
  • the length of the slots is chosen so that the blade can bend freely without being obstructed by the slot. The longer the blade, the better the spring effect and the lower the tension to which it is subjected when closing the cap. In addition, the longer the blade, the longer the contact between the latter and the cap, which improves the guiding of the latter. It is also possible that the spring blades pass on both sides of the front surface of the base.
  • the unlocking means in the base or in the cap so as not to exceed the envelope thereof.
  • Envelope means the virtual geometric surface defined by the outer wall of the base or the cap respecting the general geometry thereof. The unlocking means are placed so that it does not exceed the location that would have the base or the cap if they had not been present.
  • the first and the second closure means consist of a first shoulder and a second shoulder, at least one of the shoulders being placed on a support having a certain elasticity so that when of the flap movement of the cap, the flexible support deviates perpendicular to the approach movement of the two shoulders to allow the passage of the other shoulder until the two shoulders are embedded one behind the other allowing the support to return at least partially to its initial position.
  • the unlocking means are constituted by means for spacing parallel to the wall of the base or the cap of one another the first and the second closure means.
  • the means for spacing parallel to the wall of the base or cap the closure means are constituted by a plate on which is fixed the first or the second closure means, said plate being movable relative to the base or the cap in a parallel movement to the wall thereof between a first position in which the two closure means cooperate to keep folded the cap when it is folded and a second position in which the two closure means no longer cooperate when the cap is folded down, a spring being preferably provided to automatically bring the plate, in the absence of external forces, in the first position.
  • a practical solution is to design the plate in the form of a ring of which at least a section is placed on at least part of the circumference of the base, outside the area covered by the cap when it is folded, the ring being slidable against the base, a part of the ring being able to fulfill the function of return spring.
  • the unlocking means are constituted by means for spacing the first and second closure means perpendicularly to the base or to the cap.
  • the perpendicular spacing means are constituted by means for exerting pressure on the elastic blade from outside the cap.
  • the closing means and the unlocking means are placed opposite the hinge.
  • the cap is provided with two sets of closure means and unlocking means placed symmetrically on either side of the median plane passing through the center of the hinge.
  • the cap according to the invention is particularly well suited to a pressurized bottle.
  • it is provided with a push button placed on a base in the area that can be covered by the cap when it is folded down, the push button being able to be provided with means for actuating a valve located on the container on which the cap may be placed, the base may further comprise a channel for transmitting the product exiting the valve of the container when actuated by the actuating means of the push button.
  • the Figures 1 to 11 present two variants of the same embodiment. These two variants are very similar: the first is provided with a single set of closing means and unlocking means, disposed substantially opposite the hinge, while the second is provided with two sets arranged symmetrically by ratio to the median plane passing through the hinge.
  • the Figures 12 to 20 present a second embodiment.
  • the cap (10, 110, 210) is composed of a base (20, 120, 220) and a cap (30, 130, 230) attached to the base (20, 120, 220) by a hinge.
  • the cap is intended to be placed on the top of a pressure vessel provided with an aerosol valve (not shown).
  • fixing means (29, 129, 229) are provided on the base (20, 120, 220).
  • the base (20, 120, 220) essentially comprises a substantially cylindrical portion (21, 121, 221) closed at the top by a push button (22, 122, 222) forming the front face.
  • the push button is provided with means (23, 123, 223) for actuating the aerosol valve of the container on which the cap will be mounted.
  • These actuating means (23, 123, 223) are continued by a channel and a spray nozzle (24, 124, 224).
  • the push button (22, 122, 222) is connected to the rest of the base (20, 120, 220) only by the tongue (25, 125, 225) located on the nozzle side (24, 124, 224) so that it is possible by exerting pressure on it to move down the actuating means (23, 123, 223) and thus to actuate the valve.
  • the cap (30, 130, 230) is connected to the base (20, 120, 220) by a hinge, which allows it to move between a fully folded position on the base (20, 120, 220), thereby retracting the push button (22, 122, 222), and a wide open position in which the user can access this push button (22, 122, 222).
  • This hinge can be designed so that it itself has a small spring effect so that as soon as a certain opening angle is reached, it tends to move the cap in a wide open position.
  • the base (20, 120, 220) and the cap (30, 130, 230) are made for example in polypropylene (PP) or high or low density polyethylene (HDPE, LDPE).
  • PP polypropylene
  • HDPE high or low density polyethylene
  • two spring blades (32, 132, 232) are provided whose one end is fixed on the cylindrical part ( 21, 121, 221) of the base and the other end can slide on the inner face of the cap (30, 130, 230).
  • the spring blades (32, 132, 232) pass on both sides of the tongue (25, 125, 225) connecting the push button (22, 122, 222) to the base (20, 120, 220).
  • These spring blades (32, 132, 232) are in the extended position when the cap (30, 130, 230) is folded over the base (20, 120, 220) and in the relaxed position or at least less tensioned when the cap (20, 120, 220) 30, 130, 230) is in the wide open position.
  • the first end of the spring blades below the front surface (22, 122, 222), in the lower part of the base, the length of the blade can be increased so that the latter is even more effective while being subject to lesser stresses.
  • the push button (22, 122) covers substantially the entire cross section of the base (20, 120).
  • the slots (26, 126) are dimensioned so that the blades (32, 132) have great freedom to flex under the effect of the cap which folds.
  • the blades (32, 132, 232) are preferably made of a good shape memory material, such as polyoxymethylene (POM), polyamide (PA) or polypropylene terephthalate (PPT). They can be overmolded on the base by using mechanical anchoring (against stripping or anchoring joint) when the material used for the base and that used for the blades are not compatible. It is also possible that these blades are separate parts, separate from the base, and they are fixed on it by appropriate means.
  • POM polyoxymethylene
  • PA polyamide
  • PPT polypropylene terephthalate
  • the blades slide on the bottom of the cap, they do not risk losing contact with a particular fulcrum as in the document JP 2004352307 . Even if they lose contact with the bottom of the cap when it is wide open, they will find the contact to the point that they left when the cap will be folded. Moreover, if they ever deform a little with time, they would continue to come into contact with the bottom of the cap at a point slightly displaced from the initial point of contact.
  • Closing means are provided on the cap (30, 130, 230) and on the base (20, 120, 220). They are constituted by a first shoulder (31, 131, 231) located on the inner face of the cap (30, 130, 231) and by a second shoulder (41, 141, 241) located at the cylindrical portion (21 , 121, 221) of the base (20, 120, 220).
  • this second shoulder (41, 141) is placed on a blade (40, 140) of a certain elasticity, slightly inclined relative to the relative movement of the first shoulder (31, 131) during closure of the cap (30, 130).
  • the first shoulder (s) (31, 131) are preceded by an inclined surface which further facilitates the contacting of the portion of the cap carrying the first shoulder (31, 131) with the portion of the blade ( 40, 140) carrying the second shoulder (41, 141).
  • the inclined face preceding the first shoulder (31, 131) comes into contact with the blade (40, 140), slides against it by pulling it slightly inwardly of the cap (10, 110) until the first shoulder (31, 131) passes behind the second shoulder (41, 141), allowing the blade (40, 140) to return to its original position, or at least not close. In this position, it is no longer possible to open the cap, the two shoulders (31/41, 131/141) cooperating together.
  • the elasticity of the blade (40, 140) is chosen to ensure an automatic closure of the cap (30, 130) when it is folded on the base, without offering too much resistance. It goes without saying that the inclined surface can be placed in front of the first shoulder and / or in front of the second shoulder.
  • the blade (40, 140) In its opposite portion to the shoulder (41, 141), the blade (40, 140) is attached to the cylindrical portion (21, 121) of the base (20, 120). It is therefore sufficient to release the two shoulders (31/41, 131/141) to press the blade to spread the second shoulder (41, 141) of the first shoulder (31, 131) by applying a substantially perpendicular movement at the base, towards the center of the cap.
  • the blades are inserts inset into the base (20, 120). It is also conceivable that they are only one piece with the portion of the cylindrical portion (21, 121) of the base being made either in the same material or in another material by overmolding.
