Definitions

  • 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, and wherein each pump a separate electric motor is assigned, and with a controller.
  • Such a soap dispenser is for example from the JP 2007 037 628 known.
  • the two pumps were put into operation when the hand of a user is detected in the donor opening.
  • a similar dispenser containing two rotary pumps is in the WO 2005/063105 shown.
  • 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.
  • the 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 by means of the control, the ratio of the delivery volumes of air and soap by adjusting 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.
  • 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.
  • a stipulated minimum delivery quantity for example a disinfecting cleaning liquid
  • 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.
  • the mixing ratio affects the strength of the foam.
  • 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 seconds and an approximate volume ratio of 50: 2 - very wet foam.
  • the 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.
  • the voltage supply stabilization circuit is furthermore preferably assigned to the built-in current source.
  • the two pumps can be of any type, as long as they can be driven by an electric motor.
  • 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.
  • a dispenser according to the invention for a foamed medium, in particular for foam soap comprises the in FIG. 1 shown essential elements, namely a housing 1 in which a particular replaceable soap container 2 and a lower-side foam generator 3 are arranged.
  • 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.
  • 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 on the housing a pictogram approximately in the in FIG. 2 associated with the type shown, the scale 9 reflects the subsidized amount of soap.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • FIG. 1 the speed control of the soap pump 5 is shown 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 of soap scum consistency only to authorized users, such as service personnel.
  • the dispenser may be connected to the local power grid or have an internal power source.
  • an internal power source such as four alkaline batteries, the battery voltage drops from 6.4V to 4V as the usage progresses.
  • An internal current source is therefore in particular assigned a voltage stabilization by means of pulse width modulation ( Fig. 3 ), and there are used DC motors whose motor voltage is located near the lower limit of the battery voltage, so that the predetermined speeds of the two pumps 5, 7 can be held almost to the exhaustion of the internal power source.
  • a controller ⁇ C compares the supply voltage with the reference voltage U ref of a reference diode - may also be an internal reference - and controls 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.
