Definitions
- the invention relates to a plug called "anti-drop" for a deformable bottle.
- Such a plug is commonly used in the cosmetic or food industry to ensure the distribution of a creamy product.
- Such a plug has the disadvantage of having only a low shutter position or a high dispensing position.
- stopper can not remain in the upper dispensing position without risk of being knocked over and thus see the product it contains flow.
- Such a cap nevertheless poses sealing problems when it is not used, the product having a tendency to infiltrate between the first and second angular portions to flow out of the passage chamber, therefore to infiltrate then between the base and the cap.
- the invention overcomes this disadvantage by providing increased sealing of the passage chamber.
- the French patent application FR2945518 A1 discloses a plug called "anti-drop" according to the preamble of claim 1, for a flexible bottle having a base, communicating with the bottle, capped by a cap, having an outlet, the cap being movable between a low position d shutter and a high dispensing position, characterized in that the cap is movable between a first angular position associated with the lower shutter position and a second angular position, wherein the cap is movable under the pressure of a product supplying the base, between an intermediate position of venting the bottle and the upper dispensing position, a resilient return means of determined stiffness being interposed in the second angular position between the cap and the base.
- the British patent application GB1023955 A discloses a plug called "anti-drop" for a deformable bottle, comprising a substantially tubular base, which is intended to be sealingly attached to a complementary tubular neck of the bottle, and a first tubular section comprises at least one orifice of lower inlet communicating with the neck of the vial, and which comprises a first tubular guide and sealing portion, a substantially tubular cap, which cap sealingly the base, and a second adjacent section having at least one said upper orifice product outlet, the first and second tubular sections being mounted movable relative to each other and sealingly determining a product passage chamber, an end of the first tubular section having a frustoconical lip.
- this document does not describe sections that are slidably mounted one inside the other.
- WO2007 / 145558 A1 discloses a child protection safety cap comprising an insert, which is mounted on a bottle neck, and an outer cover, the outer cover being snapped and locked in its substantially closed position by the bottle neck, and the capsule being then be opened again but only after having been turned once again towards its closed position, and the capsule can then be opened to a final open position in which the capsule will be stopped by frustoconical lips which prevent the capsule from closing. to be unscrewed completely.
- the cap 10 is intended to equip a deformable bottle 12 with a cosmetic, pharmaceutical, industrial or food product, in liquid or creamy form.
- the deformable bottle 12 can in particular be a rigid bottle with a movable wall. This type of bottle is widely known in the state of the art and is for example used to contain toothpastes.
- the volume of the bottle varies as it is used, since the displacement of the mobile wall accompanies the evacuation of the product.
- the volume of the bottle is in this case always completely filled with product.
- the bottle 12 may also be a flexible bottle which is intended to be pressed to cause the evacuation of the product. The contraction of the bottle accompanies the evacuation of the product.
- the bottle 12 has a neck 14.
- the cap 10 comprises a substantially tubular base 16, which is intended to be sealingly attached to the complementary tubular neck 14 of the bottle 12.
- the neck 14 of the bottle 12 comprises threads 18 which are intended to receive a complementary internal thread 20 of the base 16, as shown in FIGS. Figures 4A , 5A and 6A
- the base 16 comprises a first tubular section 22 which has a transverse wall 25 having at least one inlet orifice 24 which is intended to communicate with the neck 14 of the bottle 12.
- the base 16 receives a substantially tubular cap 26, which capably surrounds the base 16, and a second tubular section 23 is closed by at least one transverse wall 28 called "upper" which has at least one outlet port 30 of the product.
- the first and second sections 22, 23 are slidably mounted one inside the other and sealingly determine a chamber 32 for passing the product, interposed between the inlet orifice 24 of the base and the orifice 30 of the product release.
- An end 33 of one of the sections is therefore arranged inside the passage chamber 32.
- the invention proposes a cap of the type described above, characterized in that the end 33 of the inner tubular section comprises at least a first frustoconical lip 35 which licks an internal bore of the outer tubular section, as shown in particular to the Figures 4B , 5B , 6B .
- the second tubular section 23 of said inner cap which is slidably mounted inside the first tubular section 22 said external of the base 12, and which comprises the first lip 35.
- This configuration is obviously not limiting of the invention.
- the first lip 35 is of a determined flexibility, which is intended to press the lip 35 against the bore of the first section 22 when the passage chamber 32 is subjected to the pressure of the product when the flexible bottle is hurry.
- This configuration is particularly advantageous because the higher the pressure in the passage chamber 32, the more the lip is pressed against the bore of the first section 22 and the sealing is increased.
- the coaxial shutter element 34 comprises a fourth cylindrical lower section 70, a fifth intermediate section 72 of substantially frustoconical shape whose diameters are smaller than that of the fourth section 70, and a sixth frustoconical upper section 74 which is complementary to the orifice 30 of the cap.
- the base 16 comprises at least two slots 24 in the form of globules distributed angularly in a regular manner around the closure element 34, and more particularly around the base of the fourth cylindrical lower section 70, which each form an orifice of FIG. entry 24, as shown in particular in figure 1D .
- the cap 26 comprises a seventh tubular section 76, which extends coaxially inside the second tubular section 23 from the upper transverse wall 28.
- This seventh section 76 is of a diameter corresponding to that of the fourth section 70 of the closure element 34 and its free end 78, which licks the fourth section in the lower position of the cap 26 as shown in FIG. Figure 4A and which, in the intermediate position of the cap 26 as shown in FIG. Figure 5A , is arranged at the junction of the fourth and fifth sections 70, 72 to achieve the venting of the bottle.
- This free end comprises a second frustoconical lip 80 which is intended to lick the fourth lower section 70 of the coaxial closure element 34.
- the second lip 80 is of a determined flexibility for pressing the lip 80 against the fourth lower section 70 when the passage chamber 32 is subjected to the pressure of the product when the flexible bottle is pressed.
- the fifth section 72 of the coaxial closure element comprises at least three grooves 82 distributed angularly in a regular manner on its periphery.
- the fifth section 72 of the coaxial closure member comprises at least three bosses 84, each protruding radially between two flutes 82 consecutive. These bosses 84 are intended to guide the seventh tubular section of the cap 26 on the closure element 30, in particular at the connection of the fourth and fifth sections 70, 72.
- the invention proposes in a known manner a drip stopper whose outlet port 30 of the product is only discovered when the cap 10 is supplied with product, for example when pressure is exerted on the bottle. flexible 12 on which is screwed the cap 10.
- the invention provides an anti-drop plug of the type described above, characterized in that the cap 26 is pivotally mounted between two angular positions which have been shown in FIG. Figure 4A to the Figure 6A .
- the cap 26 is firstly liable to be locked in the first angular position of the Figure 4A , which is a low position of closure and locking determined by an upper stop 36 secured to the base 16,
- the cap 26 By turning, the cap 26 as shown in Figure 5A , it freed from the stop 36 and is arranged in a clearance "j" reduced compared to the base 16.
- This intermediate position makes it possible, on the one hand, to align and put in communication a counterbore 86, shown in FIG. Figure 5A , which is formed in the periphery of the sixth frustoconical upper section 74 with a duct 88 which is formed in the upper wall 28 of the cap 26.
- the duct 88 has an end 90 coinciding with the counterbore 86 and an end 92 opening into the chamber of FIG. passage 32.
- This intermediate position makes it possible, on the other hand, to make the free end of the seventh section of the cap 26 coincide with the junction of the fourth and fifth sections 70, 72 of the base 16.
- the cap 26 By continuing the rotation of the cap 26 as shown in FIG. Figure 6A , it reaches a third angular position in which the cap 26 is liable to be blocked, and in which it is likely to occupy the high dispensing position according to the clearance "J" high compared to the base 16 when an injection of product from the neck 14 of the bottle 16 exerts on the upper wall 28 of the passage chamber 32 a sufficient pressure for a resultant force to overcome the force of a resilient return means of determined stiffness which is interposed in the third angular position between the cap 26 and the base 16.
- a cylindrical inner tubular bearing surface 40 of the cap 26 slidably receives a cylindrical lower bearing surface 44 of the base 16 to provide additional vertical guidance of the cap 26. on the base 16.
- the inner tubular surface 40 of the cap 26 comprises at least one pin 46 which projects radially towards the inside of the cap 26.
- This pin 46 is intended to cooperate with at least one oblong slot 42 which extends in the periphery of the cap.
- lower end 44 of the base 16 substantially an angular sector " ⁇ " corresponding to the angle formed between the first and second angular positions.
- the profile of the light 42 allows as we will see to solicit the cap 26 of its first position and locking at its third position, through its second intermediate position.
- the light 42 comprises a first section 38, of a width corresponding to the height of the pin 46, having a first end 48 of the light 42, an upper edge 36 of which determines a position of upper stop of the pin 46 thus enabling the cap 26 to be locked in the low position of closing,
- the light 42 comprises a second section 50, of a width corresponding to the height of the pin 46, comprising a first boss 52, carried in particular by a lower edge 54 of the light 46, which is arranged at a distance from the first end light corresponding substantially to the width of the pin 46, which delimits with the first end the first angular position associated with the lower shutter position, and which is likely to be crossed by the pin 46 when the cap 26 is rotated.
- the light 42 comprises a third section 56, of a width corresponding to the height of the pin 46, comprising a first bearing 57, borne at least by a lower edge of the light 42, which is intended to raise the pin 46 and therefore the cap 26 to the defined "j" reduced game.
- the reduced clearance "j" is reached once the first step has been crossed 56 from a determined angle of rotation, to determine the second intermediate angular position associated with the venting of the bottle 12.
- the light 42 comprises a fourth section 58, with a width corresponding to the height of the pin 46, having a second boss 60, carried in particular by a lower edge of the light 46, which is arranged at a distance from a second end 62 of the light corresponding substantially to the width of the pin 46, which delimits with the second end 62 the third angular position associated with the upper dispensing position, and which is likely to be crossed by the pin 46 when the cap 26 is moved in rotation.
- the light 42 comprises a fifth section 64, which extends between the second boss 60 and the second end 62 of the light 46 once the second boss 60 has been crossed from a determined angle of rotation, including an upper edge 66 resiliently biased is intended to allow the elevation of the pin 46 of the cap play high "J", since an injection of product from the neck 14 of the bottle 12 exerts on the upper wall 28 of the passage chamber sufficient pressure for a resultant force overcomes the force of the elastic return means of said upper edge 66 to determine the third intermediate angular position associated with the upper dispensing position.
- the wall could for example be a vertically sliding wall.
- the upper edge 66 of the fifth section 64 is carried by a leg resilient elastic 94, a first end 96 of which is integral with a first cylindrical portion 98 of a body of the base, and which extends with a set "e" around a second cylindrical portion 102 of the body 100 of the base diameter smaller than the first cylindrical portion 98.
- a second end 104 of the tab 94 which is free, has a lower edge which constitutes at least the upper edge 66 of the fifth section 64.
- the inner tubular bearing surface 40 of the cap 26 comprises at least two diameters 46 diametrically opposed.
- the base 16 comprises two diametrically opposite slots 42 and two elastic tabs 94.
- the base 16 and the cap 26 are each made of an injected plastic material.
- the invention therefore proposes an anti-drop plug 10 which is particularly innovative in that it makes it possible to prevent dispersion and drying of the product, and is advantageous in that it consists of a limited number of parts, and can therefore as such, be produced at a reduced cost in large series.
