Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Reizstoff-Sprühgerät nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to an irritant-spraying device according to the preamble of claim 1.
Reizstoff-Sprühgeräte der eingangs genannten Art sind beispielsweise aus den
Reizstoffpatrone kann mit Reizstoff, beispielsweise CS, OC oder PAVA gefüllt sein. Auf die Reizstoffpatrone ist ein Sprühkopf aufgesetzt, der wiederum eine Sprühdüse umfasst. Durch Niederdrücken des Sprühkopfes mittels des Daumens oder eines anderen Fingers des Benutzers wird ein in die Reizstoffpatrone integriertes Ventil geöffnet und die Abgabe des Reizstoffes ermöglicht.Irritant cartridge may be filled with irritant, such as CS, OC or PAVA. On the irritant cartridge a spray head is attached, which in turn comprises a spray nozzle. By depressing the spray head by means of the thumb or another finger of the user, a valve integrated in the irritant cartridge is opened and the release of the irritant is made possible.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ein Reizstoff-Sprühgerät der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, welches mit noch größerer Zuverlässigkeit betrieben werden kann.Object of the present invention is to provide an irritant spray device of the type mentioned, which can be operated with even greater reliability.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Reizstoff-Sprühgerät mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in Unteransprüchen angegeben. Darüber hinaus finden sich für die Erfindung wichtige Merkmale in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung und in der Zeichnung, wobei diese Merkmale sowohl in Alleinstellung als auch in unterschiedlichen Kombinationen für die Erfindung wichtig sein können, ohne dass hierauf hingewiesen wird.This object is achieved by an irritant spray device with the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in subclaims. In addition, the invention features important features in the following description and in the drawing, these features may be important both alone and in different combinations for the invention, without being noted.
Durch die erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene Anzeigeeinrichtung kann ein Benutzer des Reizstoff-Sprühgeräts jederzeit feststellen, ob der Druckbehälter bereits in Betrieb genommen worden ist oder nicht. Hierdurch wird das Risiko reduziert, dass ein Reizstoff-Sprühgerät eingesetzt wird, welches bereits halb leer ist. Letztlich wird hierdurch die Zuverlässigkeit im Betrieb des Reizstoff-Sprühgeräts verbessert. Dabei versteht sich, dass unter dem Begriff "erste Inbetriebnahme" nicht notwendigerweise eine erste Entnahme von Reizstoff aus dem Druckbehälter zu verstehen ist. Zum Erzielen des besagten Vorteils kann es auch ausreichend sein, lediglich ein erstes "Scharfmachen" des Druckbehälters oder ein erstes Niederdrücken des Sprühkopfes anzuzeigen. Außerdem sei an dieser Stelle darauf hingewiesen, dass unter dem Begriff "Reizstoff" nicht zwingend ein Augen, Nase, Atmungsorgane und/oder Haut reizender Stoff wie beispielsweise Capsaicin, Pelargonsäure-Vanillylamid, CS oder CN zu verstehen ist, wie er üblicherweise bei Selbstverteidigungssprays oder allgemein Sprays zum handlungsunfähig Machen von Personen oder Tieren zum Einsatz kommt, sondern hierunter beispielsweise auch ein Farb- oder ein Geruchsstoff verstanden werden kann, der ein Objekt markiert, oder auch ein neutraler Stoff, mit dem die Handhabung des Geräts geübt werden kann. Denkbar ist der Einsatz der vorliegenden Erfindung sogar in noch allgemeinerer Form, beispielsweise zur Anzeige einer ersten Inbetriebnahme eines Sprühgerätes zur Ausbringung einer medizinisch wirksamen Substanz.By the display device provided according to the invention, a user of the irritant spray device can determine at any time whether the pressure vessel has already been put into operation or not. This will be the risk reduces that an irritant sprayer is used, which is already half empty. Ultimately, this improves the reliability of the operation of the irritant sprayer. It is understood that the term "first startup" is not necessarily to be understood as a first removal of irritant from the pressure vessel. To achieve said advantage, it may also be sufficient to display only a first "arming" of the pressure vessel or a first depression of the spray head. It should also be noted at this point that the term "irritant" is not necessarily an eye, nose, respiratory system and / or skin irritant substance such as capsaicin, pelargonic acid vanillylamide, CS or CN to understand, as it usually in self-defense sprays or general Sprays to incapacitate action of persons or animals is used, but this can be understood, for example, a color or an odorant that marks an object, or even a neutral substance with which the handling of the device can be practiced. The use of the present invention is even conceivable in an even more general form, for example for displaying a first startup of a spray device for the application of a medically active substance.
Die Erfindung sieht am Sprühkopf ein im Reibschluss gehaltenes Schiebeelement vor, welches seine Position bei einem Niederdrücken des Sprühkopfes verändert. Dies erfolgt beispielsweise, in dem sich das Schiebeelement durch Abstützen an dem Druckbehälter relativ zum Sprühkopf von einer ersten in eine zweite Stellung verschiebt. Ein solches Schiebeelement kann sehr einfach beispielsweise im Zwei-Komponenten-Spritzguss hergestellt werden. Bei entsprechender konstruktiver Ausgestaltung ermöglicht es ferner sowohl eine visuelle als auch eine taktile Anzeige.The invention provides a frictionally held sliding element on the spray head, which changes its position upon depression of the spray head. This is done, for example, in which the sliding element shifts by supporting on the pressure vessel relative to the spray head from a first to a second position. Such a sliding element can be very easily produced for example in two-component injection molding. With appropriate structural design, it also allows both a visual and a tactile display.
Dazu weist der Sprühkopf einen durch eine dünne Materialbrücke, die insoweit eine Sollbruchstelle bildet, zunächst noch gehaltenen Materialabschnitt auf. Beim erstmaligen Niederdrücken des Sprühkopfes bewegt sich das Schiebeelement gegen den Materialabschnitt und beaufschlagt diesen mit einer Kraft. Hierdurch wird die Materialbrücke mindestens bereichsweise zerstört (beispielsweise durch Reißen) oder zumindest dauerhaft stark verformt, so dass der Materialabschnitt wenigstens bereichsweise vom Rest getrennt wird. Wird er vollständig getrennt, fällt er ab, wird er dagegen nur bereichsweise getrennt, klappt er um (die verbleibende Materialbrücke bildet dann insoweit eine Art Scharnier). Dadurch, dass der Materialabschnitt vom Sprühkopf abgetrennt oder wenigstens aus seiner ursprünglichen Lage gehebelt wird, wird das Schiebeelement durch die entstehende Öffnung für den Benutzer sichtbar. Damit wird eine zuverlässige visuelle und ggf. auch taktile Anzeige geschaffen, welche den Benutzer darüber informiert, ob der Sprühkopf bereits einmal niedergedrückt wurde oder nicht. Dabei sei nochmals darauf hingewiesen, dass erst ein tatsächliches Niederdrücken des Sprühkopfes eine dauerhafte und irreversible Zustandsänderung der Anzeigeeinrichtung bewirkt, was die Eindeutigkeit der Anzeige verbessert.For this purpose, the spray head on through a thin material bridge, which in this respect forms a predetermined breaking point, initially held on material section. When the spray head is pressed down for the first time, the sliding element moves against the material section and acts on it with a force. As a result, the material bridge is at least partially destroyed (for example, by tearing) or at least permanently strongly deformed, so that the material portion is at least partially separated from the rest. If it is completely separated, it falls off, but it is only partially separated, he works around (the remaining material bridge then forms a kind of hinge so far). The fact that the material portion is separated from the spray head or at least levered from its original position, the sliding element visible to the user through the resulting opening. This provides a reliable visual and possibly even tactile indication which informs the user whether the spray head has already been pressed once or not. It should again be noted that only an actual depression of the spray head causes a permanent and irreversible change in state of the display device, which improves the clarity of the display.
Das Reizstoff-Sprühgerät arbeitet besser, wenn das Schiebeelement stabförmig ist und in einem Kanal im Sprühkopf im Reibschluss gehalten ist. Durch den Kanal wird das Schiebeelement besonders gut geführt, was das Risiko von Fehlanzeigen vermindert.The irritant spray device works better when the sliding element is rod-shaped and held in a channel in the spray head in frictional engagement. Through the channel, the sliding element is particularly well managed, which reduces the risk of false readings.
Verschließt der Materialabschnitt den Kanal zur Oberseite des Sprühkopfes hin, wenn das Schiebeelement noch in der ersten Stellung ist, ist ein abgetrennter Materialabschnitt als ein Indiz für eine bereits erfolgte Erstbenutzung des Sprühgeräts besonders leicht erkennbar.If the material section closes off the channel to the top of the spray head, when the sliding element is still in the first position, a separated material section is particularly easily recognizable as an indication of an already existing first use of the spray device.
Ferner wird vorgeschlagen, dass der Materialabschnitt eine halbkonvexe, insbesondere halbkugelartige Form aufweist, wobei der konvex gewölbte Teil zum Schiebeelement hin zeigt und der flache Teil im Wesentlichen bündig mit der Oberseite des Sprühkopfes ist. Letztlich wird so eine in etwa ringförmige Materialbrücke bzw. Sollbruchstelle geschaffen. Die Bündigkeit führt dazu, dass die Anzeigeeinrichtung zunächst kaum oder überhaupt nicht auffällt. Die halbkugelartige Form ermöglicht eine einfache Herstellung der Materialbrücke im Spritzgussverfahren. Dabei versteht sich, dass unter dem Begriff "halbkonvex" ganz unterschiedliche Formen verstanden werden können, beispielsweise auch eine spitzkegelige, eine pyramiden-oder tetraederförmige Ausgestaltung, ja selbst eine zylinderartige Form.Furthermore, it is proposed that the material section has a semi-convex, in particular hemispherical, shape, with the convexly curved part pointing towards the sliding element and the flat part being substantially flush with the top side of the spray head. Ultimately, such an in created about annular material bridge or predetermined breaking point. The flush leads to the fact that the display initially hardly or not at all noticeable. The hemispherical shape allows for easy production of the material bridge by injection molding. It is understood that the term "halbkonvex" quite different shapes can be understood, for example, a pointed cone, a pyramidal or tetrahedral configuration, even a cylinder-like shape.
Durch ein in seiner zweiten Stellung im Wesentlichen mit der Oberseite des Sprühkopfes bündiges Schiebeelement wird das Greifen der Oberseite des Sprühkopfes durch den Benutzer nicht beeinträchtigt. Wenn das Schiebeelement in seiner zweiten Stellung die Oberseite des Sprühkopfes dagegen überragt, wird zusätzlich eine taktile Wahrnehmung des Zustands der Anzeigeeinrichtung ermöglicht. Dies ist beispielsweise bei der Nutzung der Erfindung durch eine sehbehinderte Person hilfreich.By a in its second position substantially flush with the top of the spray head sliding element, the gripping of the top of the spray head is not affected by the user. In contrast, when the sliding element projects beyond the top of the spray head in its second position, a tactile perception of the state of the display device is additionally made possible. This is helpful, for example, in the use of the invention by a visually impaired person.
Die Eindeutigkeit der Zustandsanzeige der Anzeigeeinrichtung wird verbessert, wenn mindestens die zur Oberseite des Sprühkopfes benachbarte Stirnfläche des Schiebeelements eine von der Farbe des Sprühkopfes verschiedene Farbe aufweist. Günstig ist ein hoher Kontrast. Beispielsweise weist der Sprühkopf eine rote Farbe auf und das Schiebeelement eine gelbe Farbe.The uniqueness of the status display of the display device is improved if at least the adjacent to the top of the spray head face of the sliding element has a different color from the color of the spray head. Cheap is a high Contrast. For example, the spray head has a red color and the sliding element a yellow color.
