Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne une tête de distribution de produit fluide destinée à être associée ou intégrée à un organe de distribution, tel qu'une pompe ou une valve. L'utilisateur peut appuyer sur la tête de distribution à l'aide d'un ou de plusieurs doigts pour la déplacer axialement en va-et-vient. Le déplacement de la tête a pour effet d'actionner l'organe de distribution qui en réponse émet du produit fluide sous forme dosée ou non. Ce type de tête de distribution peut également ou parfois être désigné sous le terme de « poussoir ». Les domaines d'application privilégiés de la présente invention sont ceux de la cosmétique, des produits de soins, des produits ménagers, des produits alimentaires, etc.The present invention relates to a fluid dispenser head intended to be associated or integrated with a dispensing member, such as a pump or a valve. The user can press the dispensing head with one or more fingers to move it axially back and forth. The movement of the head has the effect of actuating the dispensing member which in response emits fluid in metered form or not. This type of dispensing head may also or sometimes be referred to as a "pusher". The preferred fields of application of the present invention are those of cosmetics, care products, household products, food products, etc.
Il existe déjà de nombreuses têtes de distribution qui distribuent des produits fluides très variés sous différentes formes, par exemple pulvérisées, de cordons, de filets, de noisettes, de mousse, etc. La présente invention s'intéressera plus particulièrement aux têtes de distribution dans lequel le produit fluide n'est pas distribué sous forme pulvérisée. Plus particulièrement, la présente invention concerne les têtes de distribution formant un bec transversal de distribution qui s'étend hors de l'axe de déplacement de la tête. Ce bec définit une bouche de sortie de produit fluide qui est de préférence dirigée vers le bas. Pour acheminer le produit fluide jusqu'au niveau de la bouche de sortie, la tête de distribution comprend en général un conduit interne axial destiné à se raccorder sur la sortie de la pompe, ainsi qu'un conduit de liaison transversale, c'est-à-dire hors de l'axe d'actionnement de la tête, qui relie le conduit axial interne à la bouche de sortie. Il est aisé techniquement de réaliser le conduit interne, étant donné qu'il s'étend axialement. Pour former le conduit de liaison transversale, il est connu d'utiliser une broche courbe ou une brosse souple. Toutefois, la mise en oeuvre d'une telle broche est coûteuse et compliquée.There are already many dispensing heads that distribute a variety of fluid products in different forms, for example pulverized cords, nets, hazelnuts, foam, etc. The present invention will be more particularly concerned with dispensing heads in which the fluid product is not distributed in pulverized form. More particularly, the present invention relates to dispensing heads forming a transverse distribution nozzle which extends out of the axis of movement of the head. This nozzle defines a fluid outlet mouth which is preferably directed downwards. In order to convey the fluid product to the level of the outlet mouth, the dispensing head generally comprises an axial internal duct intended to be connected to the outlet of the pump, as well as a transverse connection duct, that is, ie out of the axis of actuation of the head, which connects the internal axial duct to the outlet mouth. It is technically easy to make the inner conduit, since it extends axially. To form the transverse connection conduit, it is known to use a curved pin or a soft brush. However, the implementation of such a pin is expensive and complicated.
Un premier but de la présente invention est de simplifier la fabrication, c'est-à-dire le moulage par injection, d'une telle tête de distribution comprenant une bouche de sortie de produit fluide déportée axialement.A first object of the present invention is to simplify the manufacture, that is to say the injection molding, of such a dispensing head comprising an axially offset fluid outlet mouth.
Dans l'art antérieur, on connaît déjà le document
La présente invention cherche à remédier ce problème en définissant une tête de distribution dont la bouche de sortie offre plus de possibilités quant à la nature, l'orientation et aux performances de l'obturateur.The present invention seeks to remedy this problem by defining a dispensing head whose mouth outlet offers more possibilities as to the nature, orientation and performance of the shutter.
Pour atteindre ce but, la présente invention propose une tête de distribution de produit fluide présentant les caractéristiques de la revendication 1, et plus particulièrement une bouche de sortie sous la forme d'un logement formé conjointement par la base et le couvercle, ce logement contenant un obturateur définissant un orifice de distribution positionné au niveau de la bouche de sortie.To achieve this object, the present invention provides a fluid dispenser head having the features of
Avantageusement, la base et le couvercle forment chacun une partie du conduit de liaison, chaque partie s'étendant du conduit interne à la bouche de sortie, de sorte que le conduit de liaison est divisé sur la longueur entre la base et le couvercle. La formation de la tête en deux parties, à savoir une base et un couvercle, permet de réaliser des formes de bec très variées avec une orientation du conduit de liaison qui est différente de celle du conduit interne et différente de celle de la bouche de sortie. Par exemple, la bouche de sortie peut définir un axe de distribution qui s'étend transversalement au conduit de liaison, et avantageusement parallèlement à l'axe du conduit interne. Ceci est possible du fait que le conduit de liaison transversale est partagé sur toute ou partie de sa longueur entre la base et le couvercle. Il faut bien différencié cette configuration de celle où un premier segment du conduit serait formé par la base et un second segment ultérieur serait formé par le couvercle. Dans la présente invention, le conduit de liaison transversale comprend une ligne de joint ou de raccordement qui s'étend sur toute ou partie de sa longueur.Advantageously, the base and the cover each form a part of the connecting pipe, each part extending from the inner pipe to the outlet mouth, so that the connecting pipe is divided over the length between the base and the lid. The formation of the two-part head, namely a base and a lid, makes it possible to produce a wide variety of nozzle shapes with an orientation of the connecting conduit which is different from that of the internal conduit and different from that of the outlet mouth. . For example, the outlet mouth may define a distribution axis which extends transversely to the connecting duct, and advantageously parallel to the axis of the internal duct. This is possible because the transverse link conduit is shared over all or part of its length between the base and the lid. This configuration must be well differentiated from that where a first segment of the duct would be formed by the base and a second subsequent segment would be formed by the lid. In the present invention, the transverse connection conduit comprises a line of joint or connection which extends over all or part of its length.
Un autre problème fréquemment rencontré dans les têtes de distribution à bec à bouche de sortie orientée vers le bas est que le produit fluide resté à l'intérieur du bec et de la bouche à tendance à goutter, alors même que la tête de distribution n'est plus actionnée. Un problème du même ordre est rencontré avec les têtes de distribution de mousse dans lesquelles de la mousse continue à être distribuée alors que l'on appuie plus sur la tête. La présente invention a également pour but de remédier à cet inconvénient de l'art antérieur. Pour ce faire, la bouche de sortie est une sortie d'un logement formé conjointement par la base et le couvercle, le conduit de liaison débouchant dans ce logement.Another problem frequently encountered in downhole outlet mouthpieces is that the fluid product inside the mouthpiece and the mouth tends to drip, even though the dispensing head is no longer operated. A similar problem is encountered with the foam dispensing heads in which foam continues to be dispensed while the head is pressed further. The present invention also aims to overcome this disadvantage of the prior art. To do this, the outlet mouth is an outlet of a housing formed jointly by the base and the cover, the connecting conduit opening into this housing.
Avantageusement, l'orifice de distribution comprend une fente de sortie de produit fluide qui est sensiblement jointive au repos et qui s'ouvre en présence de produit fluide sous pression en provenance des conduits. Selon une forme de réalisation pratique, l'obturateur est réalisé en matériau souple surmoulé dans le logement sur la base ou le couvercle. L'intégration d'un obturateur à l'intérieur de la tête de distribution est aisément possible du fait que le logement dans lequel il est reçu est formé conjointement par la base et le couvercle. Il serait possible sur une tête de distribution de l'art antérieur de rapporter un obturateur à la sortie du bec en le maintenant en position à l'aide d'une bague ou d'un autre élément supplémentaire approprié. Pour la présente invention, cet élément supplémentaire n'est plus nécessaire étant donné que l'obturateur peut être rapporté ou directement moulé à l'intérieur du logement qui est ouvert avant le montage final de la tête de distribution. L'obturateur intégré remplit une fonction d'anti-gouttes en maintenant le produit fluide par capillarité et/ou par étanchéité à l'intérieur du conduit de liaison et du logement. Il n'est pas absolument nécessaire que l'obturateur réalise une étanchéité parfaite pour remplir son rôle d'anti-gouttes. Toutefois, dans certains cas, l'étanchéité sera recherchée, notamment lorsque le produit fluide est particulièrement sensible au contact de l'air extérieur.Advantageously, the dispensing orifice comprises a fluid product outlet slit which is substantially contiguous at rest and which opens in the presence of pressurized fluid from the conduits. According to a practical embodiment, the shutter is made of flexible material overmolded in the housing on the base or the cover. The integration of a shutter inside the dispensing head is easily possible because the housing in which it is received is jointly formed by the base and the lid. It would be possible on a prior art dispensing head to return a shutter at the outlet of the spout by holding it in position by means of a ring or other appropriate additional element. For the present invention, this additional element is no longer necessary since the shutter can be attached or directly molded inside the housing which is open before final assembly of the dispensing head. The integrated shutter performs an anti-drip function by keeping the fluid fluid by capillarity and / or by sealing inside the connecting pipe and the housing. It is not absolutely necessary that the shutter performs a perfect seal to fulfill its role of anti-drops. However, in some cases, the waterproofing will be sought, especially when the fluid product is particularly sensitive to contact with the outside air.
Selon une forme de réalisation pratique, la base forme une saignée reliant le conduit interne à la bouche de sortie, et le couvercle forme une double lèvre destinée à venir en prise étanche dans la saignée de la base pour former ensemble le conduit de liaison.According to a practical embodiment, the base forms a groove connecting the inner conduit to the outlet mouth, and the lid forms a double lip intended to come into sealed engagement in the groove of the base to form together the connecting conduit.
Avantageusement, la base peut comprendre un plateau supérieur dans lequel débouche le conduit interne, une partie du conduit transversal et une partie du logement étant également formée dans ce plateau, le couvercle comprenant une face inférieure formant une partie correspondante du conduit transversal et une partie correspondante du logement. Selon un autre aspect intéressant, le conduit de liaison contient une nervure de remplissage solidaire de la base ou du couvercle pour réduire le volume mort du conduit. Selon un mode de réalisation esthétique, la base comprend une jupe qui entoure le manchon de raccordement et qui se connecte sous le plateau. D'autre part, la base et le couvercle peuvent comprendre des moyens d'assemblage mécanique définitifs, tels que par encliquetage.Advantageously, the base may comprise an upper plate into which the inner duct opens, a portion of the transverse duct and a portion of the housing being also formed in this tray, the lid comprising a lower face forming a corresponding portion of the transverse duct and a corresponding part. housing. According to another interesting aspect, the connecting conduit contains a filling rib integral with the base or lid to reduce the dead volume of the conduit. According to an aesthetic embodiment, the base comprises a skirt which surrounds the connecting sleeve and which connects under the plate. On the other hand, the base and the cover may comprise final mechanical assembly means, such as snap-fastening.
La formation de la tête de distribution en deux parties permet de mouler le conduit de liaison transversal sans utiliser de broche compliquée ou fragile. D'autre part, cette formation en deux parties permet également de réaliser un logement interne apte à recevoir un obturateur, qui peut avantageusement servir d'anti-gouttes.The formation of the two-part dispensing head makes it possible to mold the transverse connecting pipe without using a complicated or fragile pin. On the other hand, this formation in two parts also allows for an internal housing adapted to receive a shutter, which can advantageously be used as anti-drops.
L'invention sera maintenant plus amplement décrite en référence aux dessins joints donnant à titre d'exemple non limitatif, un mode de réalisation de l'invention.The invention will now be more fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings giving by way of non-limiting example, an embodiment of the invention.

Le poussoir ou tête de distribution 1 comprend essentiellement deux éléments constitutifs, à savoir une base 2, et un couvercle 3 rapporté sur la base 2. Le poussoir peut en outre comprendre un obturateur O qui peut être une pièce séparée rapportée ou intégrée, par exemple par bi injection ou surmoulage à la base 2 ou au couvercle 3, comme on le verra ci-après.The pusher or dispensing
On se référera maintenant à l'ensemble des figures pour décrire la base 2 ou le couvercle 3.Reference will now be made to all the figures to describe the
La base 2 présente une configuration complexe, comprenant une partie axiale selon l'axe X et une partie transversale qui s'étend hors de l'axe X. Cette configuration axiale/transversale permet de réaliser un bec de distribution, comme on le verra ci-après. La base 2 comprend un manchon de raccordement 21 destiné à être raccordé à la sortie de l'organe de distribution 4, qui se présente généralement sous la forme d'une tige d'actionnement déplaçable axialement en va-et-vient. Le manchon 21 peut s'engager à l'intérieur ou à l'extérieur de l'extrémité libre de la tige d'actionnement de l'organe de distribution 4. Le manchon 21 définit intérieurement un conduit axial interne 211 qui s'étend sur l'axe X ou parallèlement à l'axe X. Le conduit axial 211 n'est pas nécessairement rectiligne : il peut en effet comprendre une ou plusieurs chicanes ou dévoiements. Le conduit axial 211 traverse de part en part axialement la base 2. On peut notamment voir sur la
Selon l'invention, le plateau 23 forme également une saignée 25 qui s'étend à partir du conduit axial interne 211 jusqu'à la douille 26 formant la bouche de sortie 28. En d'autres termes, cette saignée 25 s'étend dans ou sur le plateau 23 dans la branche 24. Avantageusement, la saignée 25 contient une nervure de remplissage 251 qui permet de réduire le volume interne de la saignée, et par conséquent le volume mort, comme on le verra ci-après.According to the invention, the
Le couvercle 3 présente une configuration plutôt plate et sensiblement transversale, avantageusement perpendiculaire, à l'axe X. Le couvercle 3 s'étend de l'axe X à l'axe Y, comme on peut le voir sur la
Selon l'invention, la face inférieure 33 du couvercle 3 forme une lèvre double 35 sensiblement en forme de U allongé. Cette lèvre double 35 s'étend sensiblement depuis l'axe X transversalement dans le bras 34 jusqu'au niveau de la partie de logement 37 formée par le nez 36. Ceci est clairement visible sur la
Le couvercle 3 est donc rapporté sur la base 2 avec le bras 34 venant se superposer sur la branche 24, formant ainsi ensemble ou conjointement un bec de distribution transversal qui s'étend hors de l'axe X, et avantageusement sensiblement perpendiculairement à l'axe X. A l'extrémité libre de ce bec est formé un logement qui est également réalisé conjointement par le couvercle 3 et la base 2. Plus précisément, la partie de logement 27 formée par la douille 26 de la base 2 coopère avec la partie de logement 37 formée par le nez 36 du couvercle 3. Le logement ainsi crée communique avec l'extérieur à travers la bouche de sortie 28 qui est orientée sensiblement sur l'axe Y. En amont, ce logement 27,37 communique avec le conduit axial 21 à travers le conduit de liaison transversal 25,35. Grâce à cette conception en deux pièces, il est possible de réaliser une tête de distribution à bec de distribution transversal doté d'une bouche de sortie orientée vers le bas. Par conséquent, la tête de distribution définit des passages de produit fluide qui s'étendent selon au moins trois directions différentes. En effet, le conduit axial 211 et la bouche de sortie 28 sont sensiblement parallèles alors que le conduit de liaison transversal 25,35 est perpendiculaire. Malgré la complexité de l'orientation de ces passages, la tête de distribution est réalisable aisément à l'aide de la présente invention, étant donné que le conduit de liaison transversal est formé conjointement sur toute ou partie de sa longueur à la fois par la base 2 et le couvercle 3.The
Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux, le logement 27,37 formé conjointement contient un obturateur O qui peut être rapporté dans le logement, ou en variante, surmoulé ou bien bi injecté dans le logement, sur la base 2 ou sur le couvercle 3. De préférence, l'obturateur O est un obturateur à fente comprenant une fente F qui peut avantageusement se présenter sous la forme d'une croix. Lorsque la fente n'est soumise à aucunes contraintes, elle reste sensiblement jointive et étanche. En revanche, lorsqu'elle est soumise à la pression du produit fluide, la fente s'écarte pour frayer un passage pour le produit fluide sous pression. Il n'est pas absolument nécessaire que la fente F de l'obturateur O soit étanche au repos, si l'on veut qu'elle ne remplisse qu'une fonction d'anti-gouttes. La fente, même non étanche, offre suffisamment de force de capillarité pour retenir le produit fluide à l'intérieur du logement 27,37. Dans d'autres cas, il sera nécessaire que la fente soit étanche au repos, en particulier lorsque le produit fluide distribué est fragile au contact de l'air.According to an advantageous embodiment, the
Grâce à l'invention, on obtient une tête de distribution à bec transversal et bouche de sortie orientée vers le bas qui est particulièrement facile à mouler et à assembler.Thanks to the invention, there is obtained a dispensing head with a transverse nose and a downwardly directed outlet mouth which is particularly easy to mold and assemble.
