Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a suitable for a liquid dispenser apparatus.
  • the foaming and foam dispensing device is designed to pump and foam a pourable liquid from a container and comprises a housing plate having at least one positioning element adapted to cooperate with, preferably adapted to be received and retained in, at least one guiding element of the dispenser apparatus wherein the housing plate defines a plane, a first pumping arrangement for pumping the pourable liquid, and a second pumping arrangement for pumping a foaming media, wherein the second pumping arrangement features a cylindrical media chamber, in which a displacement member is displaceably guided along the central axis, and an actuation element for actuating the first and the second pumping arrangement that has an actuation area for cooperating with an operating element of the dispenser apparatus, wherein one side of the plane faces the actuation area.
  • the invention relates to a liquid dispenser apparatus suitable for dispensing of liquids associated with hand-hygiene.
  • a liquid dispenser apparatus suitable for dispensing of liquids associated with hand-hygiene.
  • foaming and dispensing devices as well as such liquid dispenser apparatuses are e.g. placed in health care settings, public conveniences or highly frequented public areas.
  • the present invention especially relates to a foaming and dispensing device with individual features of claim 1 and further to a liquid dispenser apparatus with individual features of claim 14.
  • An apparatus for making and dispensing foam is e.g. known from US 2001/004276 A1 .
  • the apparatus for making and dispensing foam disclosed in this document has a housing forming a generally closed foaming chamber, a liquid pump for drawing liquid from a supply and spraying the liquid into the foaming chamber, and an air pump for forcing air into the foaming chamber.
  • the conduit forms a continuously opened passage having an inner end opening into the foaming chamber and an outer end open to outside.
  • a foam generator and the foaming chamber mixes the spray and air therein to generate foam and to expand the foam to flow through the conduit out the outer end thereof.
  • the liquid pump includes a small diameter liquid chamber with a small diameter liquid piston displaceable therein while the air pump includes a large-diameter air chamber and a large-diameter air piston displaceable therein and coupled directly to the liquid piston.
  • the large-diameter air chamber as well as the liquid chamber project from a housing plate on a side of the housing plate that is opposite to the side where a nozzle is arranged. In operation both, air chamber and liquid chamber, are located within a supply container that holds a foamable liquid soap or detergent.
  • a disadvantage of this apparatus is, that due to the large-diameter air chamber non-standard containers have to be used in cooperation with this apparatus. Such containers are rather expensive and laborious to use in industry as bottling plants at soap or disinfectant producers must be adapted to these non-standard containers. Further, in some legislations it may even be necessary to registered and approve such containers by medical registration authorities.
  • a foaming and foam dispensing device for a liquid dispenser apparatus wherein the media chamber of the second pumping arrangement, which is suitable for pumping a foaming media like air, is located on the side of the plane, defined by the housing plate, that faces the actuation area of the actuation element.
  • the second pumping arrangement is entirely located on that side of the plane. Due to this arrangement, only the first pumping arrangement may be arranged on the side of the plane and respectively on the side of the housing plate which faces the container when the foaming and foam dispensing device is in operation.
  • This first pumping arrangement which is suitable for pumping the liquid like e.g. liquid foamable soap, may due to its smaller diameter easily be arranged or inserted into a standard container via its neck.
  • a ratio of an inner radius of the media chamber of the second pumping arrangement air pumping arrangement and a height of the media chamber of the second pumping arrangement in a direction along the central axis has a value in the range of 2.8/1 to 1.5/1, preferably of 2.5/1 to 1.8/1.
  • the at least one positioning element is arranged at an outer edge of the housing plate, hence providing an exact positioning close to the first and second pumping arrangements.
  • a first and a second outer edge are disposed on opposite sides of the housing plate, having first and second positioning elements, allowing for an exact positioning of the foaming and foam dispensing device in a liquid dispenser apparatus.
  • each of the first and second positioning elements have a chamfer arranged on a wall-member that projects, preferably vertically, from the housing plate.
  • the chamfers arranged on the wall-members positioning of the foaming and foam dispensing device in the liquid dispenser apparatus may be improved further.
  • the first and second positioning elements with the chamfers cooperate with corresponding guiding elements of the dispenser apparatus, a reversible fixation or retention of the foaming and foam dispensing device in the liquid dispenser apparatus may be achieved.
  • the second pumping arrangement has a cylindrical housing that can be formed in one piece with a housing plate and that projects away from the housing plate in a direction towards the actuation area of the actuation element.
  • Cylindrical in this respect is meant to be circular cylindrical.
  • the housing plate has an extension that projects away from the cylindrical housing in a direction parallel to the direction of the first and second positioning elements, and that on the side of the extension facing the actuation area of the actuation element there is disposed at least one mounting appliance for mounting a dispenser nozzle.
  • a first and a second mounding appliance are arranged on the extension in a distance from each other along a radial line with respect to the cylindrical housing.
  • each mounting appliance comprises two opposite posts, each having a slot for cooperation with a respective key of the dispenser nozzle.
  • the key needn't be an integral part of the dispenser nozzle. Rather the key could also be formed on an individual part which is connected to the dispenser nozzle. Due to this construction with two opposite posts each having a slot for cooperation with a key a mechanically simple solution for placing a dispenser nozzle on the extension of the housing plate can be provided.
  • the keys are disposed on an intermediate member which is connected to the dispenser nozzle.
  • Forming the keys on an intermediate member which is connected to a dispenser nozzle facilitates manufacturing the dispenser nozzle and the intermediate member with the keys as injection molding parts. Also, a high flexibility when choosing different sizes of dispenser nozzles is obtained.
  • the actuation element hosts a fluid dispensing channel that terminates at one end in a pipe socket, the pipe socket being in fluid communication with the dispenser nozzle via an elastic tube.
  • This structure with the elastic tube being in between the pipe socket and the dispenser nozzle facilitates that the dispenser nozzle may be fixed to the extension of the housing plate while the actuation element is a movable piece which may be moved back and forth respectively up and down, while the dispenser nozzle remains static.
  • the intermediate member is at one end connected to and in fluid communication with the elastic tube and at its opposite end the intermediate member is connected to and in fluid communication with a dispenser nozzle.
  • the pipe socket will be connected to the dispenser nozzle not only via the elastic tube but also via the intermediate member, whereby the intermediate member also is used to fix the dispenser nozzle to the extension of the housing plate via the cooperation of the mounting appliances with the slotted opposite posts and the respective keys at the intermediate member.
  • At least one foam generator within the fluid dispensing channel.
  • foam generators placed within the fluid dispensing channel including the fluid dispensing channel within the dispenser nozzle.
  • the object of the present invention is further solved by providing a liquid dispenser apparatus that comprises a casing with a first shell and a second shell, the first shell and the second shell being pivotably connected with each other and being pivotable between an open and a closed position, at least one guide element for positioning of a foaming and dispensing device, a foaming and dispensing device according to the invention as described above, being received and positioned by the at least one guiding element, and an operating element for actuating the foaming and dispensing device, in order to facilitate dispensing of a foamed liquid from a container.
