Description

Spender für Schaumseife Dispenser for foam soap
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Spender für Schaumseife mit einem Gehäuse, in dem ein Seifenbehälter und ein Schaumerzeuger vorgesehen sind, wobei im Förderweg der Seife vom Behälter zum Schaumerzeuger eine erste Pumpe und im Förderweg der Luft zum Schaumerzeuger eine zweite Pumpe vorgesehen sind.The invention relates to a dispenser for foam soap with a housing in which a soap container and a foam generator are provided, wherein in the conveying path of the soap from the container to the foam generator, a first pump and in the conveying path of the air to the foam generator, a second pump are provided.
Ein derartiger Seifenspender ist beispielsweise der WO 96/29921 zu entnehmen. Hier sind zwei Hubkolbenpumpen parallel übereinander im Spender angeordnet und durch einen gemeinsamen Betätigungshebel bedienbar. Seife und Luft werden in eine Schäumkammer am Auslass gleichzeitig eingedrückt, durchmischt und als Seifenschaum in gleich bleibender Konsistenz abgegeben.Such a soap dispenser can be found for example in WO 96/29921. Here are two reciprocating pumps arranged in parallel one above the other in the dispenser and operated by a common operating lever. Soap and air are pressed into a foaming chamber at the outlet at the same time, mixed and delivered as soap foam in a consistent consistency.
Ein ähnlicher Spender, der zwei Rotationspumpen enthält, ist in der WO 2005/063105 gezeigt. Die beiden Rotationspumpen werden von einem gemeinsamen Handhebel über ein Getriebe betätigt. Unterschiedliche Schaumkonsistenzen können durch unterschiedliche Getriebeübersetzungen erreicht werden, Details hierzu sind nicht ausgeführt.A similar dispenser containing two rotary pumps is shown in WO 2005/063105. The two rotary pumps are operated by a common hand lever via a gearbox. Different foam consistencies can be achieved by different gear ratios, details are not executed.
Der Einfachheit halber wird hier und in den anliegenden Ansprüchen von „Schaumseife" und „Seife" gesprochen, worunter alle aufschäumbaren Mittel für Reinigung, Desinfektion, Pflege usw. zu verstehen sind.For simplicity, here and in the appended claims of "foam soap" and "soap" spoken, by which all foamable means for cleaning, disinfection, care, etc. are to be understood.
Die Erfindung hat es sich nun zur Aufgabe gestellt, einen Spender der eingangs genannten Art so auszubilden, dass die Schaumkonsistenz nach Bedarf über einen bestimmten Bereich in einfacher Weise eingestellt und geändert werden kann. Dies wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erreicht, dass jeder Pumpe ein eigener Elektromotor zugeordnet ist und eine Steuerung vorgesehen ist, mittels der das Verhältnis derThe invention has now set itself the task of designing a dispenser of the type mentioned so that the foam consistency can be adjusted and changed as needed over a certain range in a simple manner. This is inventively achieved in that each pump is assigned its own electric motor and a controller is provided by means of which the ratio of
Fördervolumina von Luft und Seife durch Änderung der Drehzahl einer der beiden Elektromotoren einstellbar ist. Insbesondere werden daher Gleichstrommotoren verwendet, deren Drehzahl direkt proportional zur Motorspannung ist.Delivery volumes of air and soap by changing the speed of one of the two electric motors is adjustable. In particular, therefore, DC motors are used whose speed is directly proportional to the motor voltage.
Die Veränderung der Schaumkonsistenz ermöglicht es einerseits, eine festgesetzte Mindestabgabemenge, beispielsweise einer desinfizierenden Reinigungsflüssigkeit, einzustellen, oder andererseits, bei starker Beschmutzung eine höhere Menge bzw. bei leichter Beschmutzung eine Mindermenge an Seifenschaum zur Verfügung zu stellen, und dabei jeweils die Abgabeportion und die Abgabezeit nahezu unverändert zu belassen.The change in the foam consistency makes it possible, on the one hand, to set a stipulated minimum delivery quantity, for example a disinfecting cleaning liquid, or, on the other hand, to provide a high level of heavy soiling or, if lightly soiled, a lesser amount of soap scum, leaving the dispensing portion and dispensing time virtually unchanged.
Das Mischungsverhältnis beeinflusst die Festigkeit des Schaumes.The mixing ratio affects the strength of the foam.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung ist daher vorgesehen, dass das Volumenverhältnis durch Änderung der Drehzahl des Motors der Seifenpumpe einstellbar ist. Die Drehzahl des Motors der Luftpumpe bleibt in dieser Ausführung somit konstant. Bevorzugte Abgabemengen an aufgeschäumter Reinigungsflüssigkeit sind von ca. 0,3 ml in einer Sekunde und einem annähernden Volumenverhältnis von 50:1 bis ca. 0,9 ml in 1 ,5 Sekunden und einem annähernden Volumenverhältnis von 50:2 - sehr feuchter Schaum.In a preferred embodiment it is therefore provided that the volume ratio can be adjusted by changing the rotational speed of the motor of the soap pump. The speed of the motor of the air pump remains constant in this embodiment. Preferred delivery rates of foamed cleaning fluid are from about 0.3 ml in one second and an approximate volume ratio of 50: 1 to about 0.9 ml in 1.5 sec and an approximate volume ratio of 50: 2 - very moist foam.
Der erfindungsgemäße Spender kann mit einem Anschluss an die örtliche Stromversorgung versehen sein, der Spender kann aber auch davon autark sein und über eingebaute Stromquellen, wie Batterien, aufladbare Akkus oder dergleichen verfügen. Um in diesem Fall dem Motor der Luftpumpe eine konstant bleibende Spannung zur Verfügung zu stellen, sodass deren Fördermenge gleich bleibt, ist weiters bevorzugt der eingebauten Stromquelle eineThe dispenser according to the invention may be provided with a connection to the local power supply, but the dispenser may also be self-sufficient and have built-in power sources, such as batteries, rechargeable batteries or the like. In order to provide the motor of the air pump in this case a constant voltage available, so that their flow rate remains the same, is further preferred, the built-in power source one
Spannungsstabilisierungsschaltung zugeordnet.Assigned voltage stabilization circuit.
Die beiden Pumpen können beliebiger Art sein, sofern sie sich elektromotorisch antreiben lassen. Bevorzugt ist die Luftpumpe einer Membranpumpe. Derartige Pumpen, die für den speziellen Zweck der Luftförderung besonders geeignet sind, sind in die Gruppen F04B43/02 und F04B43/04 der Internationalen Patentklassifikation eingeordnet. Als Seifenpumpe eignet sich insbesondere eine Schlauchquetschpumpe, wie sie in Gruppe F04C5/00 der Internationalen Patentklassifikation eingeordnet ist.The two pumps can be of any type, as long as they can be driven by an electric motor. Preferably, the air pump is a diaphragm pump. Such pumps, which are particularly suitable for the specific purpose of conveying air, are classified in the groups F04B43 / 02 and F04B43 / 04 of the International Patent Classification. As a soap pump, in particular a peristaltic pump, as it is classified in group F04C5 / 00 of the International Patent Classification.
Nachstehend wird nun die Erfindung an Hand der Figuren der beiliegenden Zeichnung näher beschrieben.The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the figures of the accompanying drawings.

Spenders für Schaumseife, Fig. 2 vergrößert die Handhabe zur Einstellung des Luft-Seife-Verhältnisses, und Fig. 3 eine Schaltungsanordnung zur Stabilisierung der von Batterien abgegebenen Spannung.Fig. 2 enlarges the handle for adjusting the air-soap ratio, and Fig. 3 shows a circuit arrangement for stabilizing the voltage delivered by batteries.
Ein erfindungsgemäßer Spender für ein geschäumtes Medium, insbesondere für Schaumseife umfasst die in Figur 1 gezeigten wesentlichen Elemente, nämlich ein Gehäuse 1 , in dem ein insbesondere austauschbarer Seifenbehälter 2 und ein unterseitiger Schaumerzeuger 3 angeordnet sind. Der Schaumerzeuger kann beispielsweise einen porösen Einsatzkörper oder mindestens zwei hintereinander angeordnete Siebe aufweisen. Mit der Ziffer 10 ist eine Portion des produzierten Schaums bezeichnet. Vom Seifenbehälter 2 zum Schaumerzeuger 3 erstreckt sich eine Leitung 4, in der eine von einem Elektromotor angetriebene Seifenpumpe 5, insbesondere eine Schlauchquetschpumpe vorgesehen ist, deren Drehzahl mittels eines Drehpotentiometers 8 variiert werden kann. Dem Drehknopf des Potentiometers 8 ist am Gehäuse vorzugsweise ein Piktogramm etwa in der in Figur 2 gezeigten Art zugeordnet, wobei die Skala 9 die geförderte Seifenmenge wiedergibt.A dispenser according to the invention for a foamed medium, in particular for foam soap, comprises the essential elements shown in FIG. 1, namely a housing 1 in which a particularly replaceable soap container 2 and a foam generator 3 are arranged on the underside. The foam generator may, for example, have a porous insert body or at least two sieves arranged one behind the other. The numeral 10 denotes a portion of the produced foam. From the soap container 2 to the foam generator 3, a line 4, in which a driven by an electric motor soap pump 5, in particular a peristaltic pump is provided, the speed of which can be varied by means of a rotary potentiometer 8 extends. The knob of the potentiometer 8 is preferably associated with a pictogram approximately in the manner shown in Figure 2 on the housing, wherein the scale 9 reproduces the conveyed amount of soap.
In den Schaumerzeuger mündet weiters eine Leitung 6 für die Zuführung der Schäumluft, in der eine von einem zweiten Elektromotor angetriebene Luftpumpe 7, insbesondere eine Rotationsmembranpumpe vorgesehen ist. Der Spender weist bevorzugt einen nicht gezeigten Annäherungssensor auf, sodass bei richtiger Positionierung der Hand unterhalb des Auslasses des Schaumerzeugers 3 beide Pumpen 5, 7 zu laufen beginnen.In the foam generator further opens a line 6 for the supply of the foaming air, in which a driven by a second electric motor air pump 7, in particular a rotary diaphragm pump is provided. The dispenser preferably has a proximity sensor, not shown, so that with proper positioning of the hand below the outlet of the foam generator 3, both pumps 5, 7 begin to run.
Die Luftfördermenge wird konstant gehalten, das heißt, die Drehzahl der Luftpumpe 7 wird nicht geändert. Der Seifenanteil, der die Konsistenz des Schaums beeinflusst, kann durch die Änderung der Drehzahl der Seifenpumpe 5 variiert werden.The air flow rate is kept constant, that is, the rotational speed of the air pump 7 is not changed. The proportion of soap that affects the consistency of the foam can be varied by changing the speed of the soap pump 5.
In Figur 1 ist die Drehzahlregelung der Seifenpumpe 5 von außerhalb des Gehäuses 1 gezeigt. Der Drehknopf des Potentiometers 8 kann aber auch im Gehäuseinneren angeordnet sein, wobei ein gegebenenfalls versperrter Gehäusedeckel geöffnet werden muss. Diese Ausführung erlaubt die Änderung der Seifenschaumkonsistenz nur befugten Benutzern, beispielsweise dem Servicepersonal.FIG. 1 shows the speed control of the soap pump 5 from outside the housing 1. The knob of the potentiometer 8 can also be arranged inside the housing, with an optionally obstructed housing cover open must become. This design allows the change in soap scum consistency only to authorized users, such as service personnel.
Der Spender kann an das örtliche Stromnetz angeschlossen sein oder eine interne Stromquelle aufweisen. Bei einer internen Stromquelle, beispielsweise vier Alkaline- Batterien, sinkt die Batteriespannung mit fortschreitender Verwendung von 6,4 V auf 4 V ab. Einer internen Stromquelle ist daher insbesondere eine Spannungsstabilisierung mittels Pulsweitenmodulation zugeordnet (Fig. 3), und es werden Gleichstrommotoren verwendet, deren Motorspannung nahe der unteren Grenze der Batteriespannung angesiedelt ist, sodass die vorgegebenen Drehzahlen der beiden Pumpen 5, 7 fast bis zum Aufbrauch der internen Stromquelle gehalten werden können. Wie Fig. 3 zeigt vergleicht ein Kontroller (μC) die Versorgungsspannung mit der Referenzspannung Uref einer Referenzdiode - kann auch eine interne Referenz sein - und regelt die Pulsweitenmodulation (PWM) des Motors M auf 4 V. Ein Ausgangstransistor oder (MOS-Fet) T1 dient als Treiber, um den nötigen Strom für den Motor bereit zu stellen. The dispenser may be connected to the local power grid or have an internal power source. With an internal power source, such as four alkaline batteries, the battery voltage drops from 6.4V to 4V as the usage progresses. An internal power source is therefore associated in particular with voltage stabilization by means of pulse width modulation (FIG. 3), and DC motors are used whose motor voltage is close to the lower limit of the battery voltage, so that the given rotational speeds of the two pumps 5, 7 are almost up to exhaustion of the internal Power source can be kept. As shown in FIG. 3, a controller (μC) compares the supply voltage with the reference voltage U ref of a reference diode - may also be an internal reference - and regulates the pulse width modulation (PWM) of the motor M to 4 V. An output transistor or (MOS-Fet) T1 serves as a driver to provide the necessary power for the motor.
