Description
La présente invention concerne un distributeur de produit fluide comprenant un réservoir de produit fluide définissant une ouverture, un organe de distribution monté dans l'ouverture du réservoir et comprenant une tige d'actionnement, un poussoir destiné à être monté sur la tige d'actionnement de l'organe de distribution, et une coque d'habillage dans laquelle un ensemble, formé par le réservoir et son organe de distribution, est adapté à être maintenu de manière amovible, le poussoir étant prisonnier de la coque d'habillage, de sorte que ladite tige d'actionnement ne peut être connectée au poussoir que dans la coque d'habillage, le poussoir étant déplaçable axialement dans la coque d'habillage sur une course limitée définie par une butée basse et une butée haute. Les domaines d'application privilégiés de la présente invention sont ceux de la parfumerie, de la cosmétique ou encore de la pharmacie.The present invention relates to a fluid dispenser comprising a fluid reservoir defining an opening, a dispensing member mounted in the opening of the reservoir and comprising an actuating rod, a pusher intended to be mounted on the actuating rod. of the dispensing member, and a covering shell in which an assembly, formed by the reservoir and its dispensing member, is adapted to be held removably, the pusher being trapped in the covering shell, so that said actuating rod can be connected to the pusher in the covering shell, the pusher being movable axially in the covering shell on a limited stroke defined by a lower stop and a high stop. The preferred fields of application of the present invention are those of perfumery, cosmetics or even pharmacy.
Le document de l'art antérieur
Dans ce distributeur de l'art antérieur, le poussoir est certes prisonnier de la coque d'habillage, mais peut se déplacer à l'intérieur de cette coque sur une course limitée définie par une butée basse et une butée haute. Ainsi, lorsque la recharge formée par le réservoir et son organe de distribution n'est pas en place à l'intérieur de la coque d'habillage, le poussoir est libre de se déplacer sur cette course limitée sous l'effet de la gravité. Il s'ensuit que le déplacement du poussoir interne de la coque peut générer des bruits indésirables. Pire encore, le poussoir pourrait se bloquer à l'intérieur de la coque, de sorte que le distributeur deviendrait inutilisable.In this dispenser of the prior art, the pusher is certainly trapped in the covering shell, but can move within this shell on a limited stroke defined by a low stop and a high stop. Thus, when the refill formed by the reservoir and its dispensing member is not in place inside the covering shell, the pusher is free to move on this limited stroke under the effect of gravity. It follows that the displacement of the internal pusher of the shell can generate noises undesirable. Worse still, the pusher could lock inside the shell, so that the dispenser would become unusable.
La présente invention a pour but de remédier aux inconvénients précités de l'art antérieur en définissant un distributeur de produit fluide à poussoir prisonnier qui n'est pas libre de se déplacer à l'intérieur de la coque d'habillage. Un autre objet de la présente invention est que le poussoir prisonnier soit disposé dans une position déterminée à l'intérieur de la coque d'habillage lorsque la recharge n'est pas en place à l'intérieur de la coque d'habillage. Encore un autre but de la présente invention est de se passer de moyens ou de techniques de maintien mécaniques, comme par exemple le frottement, le vissage ou l'encliquetage, qui peuvent conduire à des blocages, des duretés ou pire encore à des ruptures de pièces.The present invention aims to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks of the prior art by defining a fluid dispenser pusher prisoner who is not free to move within the casing shell. Another object of the present invention is that the prisoner pusher is disposed in a determined position inside the covering shell when the refill is not in place inside the covering shell. Yet another object of the present invention is to dispense with mechanical holding means or techniques, such as friction, screwing or snapping, which can lead to blockages, hardnesses or even worse to breakages. rooms.
Pour atteindre ces buts, la présente invention propose des moyens magnétiques agissant entre la coque d'habillage et le poussoir pour maintenir par attraction/répulsion magnétique le poussoir dans une position déterminée qui est fixe par rapport à la coque d'habillage, lorsque la tige d'actionnement est déconnectée du poussoir. Ainsi, les moyens magnétiques génèrent une attraction ou une répulsion magnétique permettant d'immobiliser le poussoir dans une position prédéterminée à l'intérieur de la coque d'habillage.To achieve these objects, the present invention provides magnetic means acting between the covering shell and the pusher for maintaining by attraction / magnetic repulsion the pusher in a determined position which is fixed relative to the covering shell, when the rod the actuator is disconnected from the pusher. Thus, the magnetic means generate magnetic attraction or repulsion to immobilize the pusher in a predetermined position inside the covering shell.
Selon un premier mode de réalisation de l'invention, les moyens magnétiques comprennent au moins un aimant de coque solidaire de la coque d'habillage et au moins un aimant de poussoir solidaire du poussoir. Dans ce premier mode de réalisation, les deux aimants s'attirent ou se repoussent en fonction de la disposition et/ou de l'orientation des pôles magnétiques des deux aimants.According to a first embodiment of the invention, the magnetic means comprise at least one shell magnet integral with the covering shell and at least one push magnet secured to the pusher. In this first embodiment, the two magnets attract or repel depending on the arrangement and / or the orientation of the magnetic poles of the two magnets.
Selon un second mode de réalisation de l'invention, les moyens magnétiques comprennent au moins un aimant solidaire de la coque d'habillage ou du poussoir, et au moins un élément ferromagnétique solidaire du poussoir ou de la coque d'habillage. Dans ce cas, l'élément ferromagnétique est toujours attiré par l'aimant: il n'y a pas de phénomènes de répulsion magnétique.According to a second embodiment of the invention, the magnetic means comprise at least one magnet secured to the covering shell or the pusher, and at least one ferromagnetic element integral with the pusher or the covering shell. In this case, the ferromagnetic element is always attracted by the magnet: there are no magnetic repulsion phenomena.
Selon un premier aspect intéressant de la présente invention, les moyens magnétiques peuvent maintenir le poussoir dans ladite position déterminée qui correspond à la mise en butée d'un téton solidaire du poussoir contre une des butées basse ou haute formées par la coque d'habillage. En d'autres termes, le poussoir est attiré ou repoussé contre la butée haute ou la butée basse de la coque d'habillage.According to a first interesting aspect of the present invention, the magnetic means can maintain the pusher in said determined position which corresponds to the abutment of a pin secured to the pusher against one of the low or high abutments formed by the covering shell. In other words, the pusher is attracted or pushed against the upper stop or the lower abutment of the covering shell.
Avantageusement, la coque d'habillage définit une couronne de maintien dans laquelle le poussoir est engagé et prisonnier tout en se déplaçant axialement sur ladite course limitée. De préférence, la couronne de maintien définit au moins une rainure de guidage axial fermée à ses deux extrémités définissant respectivement les butées basse et haute, le poussoir comprenant au moins un téton engagé dans la rainure de guidage axial et déplaçable axialement dans cette rainure de guidage axial entre ses deux butées basse et haute, le téton étant avantageusement formé sur une patte souple permettant la mise en place du téton dans la rainure de guidage axial par déformation élastique de la patte souple. Le poussoir peut ainsi être mis en place dans la couronne de maintien avec son ou ses téton(s) engagé(s) dans la ou les rainure(s) de guidage axial par simple poussée axiale en déformant les pattes souples sur lesquelles sont formés les tétons.Advantageously, the covering shell defines a holding ring in which the pusher is engaged and trapped while moving axially on said limited stroke. Preferably, the holding ring defines at least one axial guide groove closed at its two ends respectively defining the low and high stops, the pusher comprising at least one stud engaged in the axial guide groove and axially displaceable in this guide groove. axial between its two abutments low and high, the stud being advantageously formed on a flexible tab allowing the introduction of the stud in the axial guide groove by elastic deformation of the flexible tab. The pusher can thus be placed in the holding ring with its pin or pins engaged in the groove (s) of axial guidance by simple axial thrust by deforming the flexible tabs on which are formed the nipples.
Selon une autre caractéristique avantageuse de l'invention, la coque comprend un fût entourant le réservoir, l'aimant de coque ou l'élément ferromagnétique étant monté sur ce fût.According to another advantageous characteristic of the invention, the shell comprises a barrel surrounding the tank, the shell magnet or the ferromagnetic element being mounted on this barrel.
Selon un autre aspect intéressant de la présente invention, le poussoir peut comprendre un manchon de raccordement destiné à venir en prise avec la tige d'actionnement, l'aimant de poussoir ou l'élément ferromagnétique solidaire du poussoir étant monté autour du manchon de raccordement.According to another interesting aspect of the present invention, the pusher may comprise a connection sleeve intended to engage with the actuating rod, the pusher magnet or the ferromagnetic element integral with the pusher being mounted around the connecting sleeve. .
Selon une forme de réalisation particulière, la tige d'actionnement peut être pourvue d'un aimant de tige ou d'un élément ferromagnétique de tige qui coopère avec l'aimant de poussoir ou l'élément ferromagnétique de poussoir pour réaliser une connexion magnétique entre la tige d'actionnement et le poussoir. Avantageusement, l'attraction magnétique est plus forte entre la tige d'actionnement et le poussoir qu'entre le poussoir et la coque d'habillage. De préférence, les moyens magnétiques maintiennent le poussoir dans ladite position déterminée correspondant à la mise en butée contre la butée basse. Ainsi, lorsque l'ensemble formé par le réservoir et l'organe de distribution est amené à l'intérieur de la coque d'habillage, la tige d'actionnement pourvue d'un aimant ou d'un élément ferromagnétique va rapidement venir en contact avec le manchon de raccordement lui-même pourvu d'un aimant ou d'un élément ferromagnétique. Le poussoir est alors toujours en butée contre la butée basse. L'utilisateur va ensuite pousser sur le réservoir pour le déplacer en position finale dans laquelle les tétons du poussoir vont venir à proximité ou en butée contre la butée haute. Cela implique que l'aimant ou l'élément ferromagnétique du poussoir a été déplacé en éloignement de l'aimant ou de l'élément ferromagnétique de la coque d'habillage de sorte que l'attraction ou la répulsion magnétique a décrue. D'autre part, l'enfoncement du poussoir va dans le sens d'un accroissement de l'attraction ou de la répulsion magnétique avec la coque d'habillage, ce qui permet de diminuer, de manière perceptible ou non, la force d'appui nécessaire pour enfoncer le poussoir.According to a particular embodiment, the actuating rod may be provided with a rod magnet or a ferromagnetic rod element which cooperates with the pusher magnet or the ferromagnetic pusher element to achieve a magnetic connection between the actuating rod and the pusher. Advantageously, the magnetic attraction is stronger between the actuating rod and the pusher than between the pusher and the shell dressing. Preferably, the magnetic means maintain the pusher in said determined position corresponding to the abutment against the abutment. Thus, when the assembly formed by the reservoir and the dispensing member is brought inside the covering shell, the actuating rod provided with a magnet or a ferromagnetic element will quickly come into contact with the connection sleeve itself provided with a magnet or a ferromagnetic element. The pusher is then always in abutment against the lower stop. The user will then push on the tank to move it to the final position in which the nipples of the pusher will come close to or abut against the high stop. This implies that the magnet or the ferromagnetic element of the pusher has been moved away from the magnet or the ferromagnetic element of the covering shell so that magnetic attraction or repulsion has decreased. On the other hand, the depression of the pusher is in the direction of an increase in the attraction or the magnetic repulsion with the covering shell, which makes it possible to decrease, in a perceptible or not, the force of support needed to push the pusher.
L'esprit de l'invention repose sur le fait d'utiliser l'attraction ou la répulsion magnétique pour immobiliser un poussoir à l'intérieur d'une coque d'habillage, lorsque la recharge, formée par un organe de distribution et un réservoir, n'est pas en place à l'intérieur de la coque d'habillage. Cette immobilisation permet d'éviter tout déplacement inutile du poussoir à l'intérieur de la coque. De plus, l'attraction ou la répulsion magnétique peut servir à mettre en oeuvre une recharge elle-même pourvue d'un aimant ou d'un élément ferromagnétique susceptible de réaliser une connexion magnétique entre la tige d'actionnement d'une pompe ou d'une valve et le poussoir.The spirit of the invention is based on the fact of using attraction or magnetic repulsion to immobilize a pusher inside a covering shell, when the refill, formed by a dispensing member and a reservoir , is not in place inside the dressing shell. This immobilization avoids unnecessary displacement of the pusher inside the shell. In addition, the attraction or the magnetic repulsion can be used to implement a refill itself provided with a magnet or a ferromagnetic element capable of making a magnetic connection between the actuating rod of a pump or a valve and the pusher.

Le distributeur de produit fluide de la présente invention se compose d'un premier ensemble constitué d'un réservoir sur lequel est monté un organe de distribution tel qu'une pompe ou une valve, et d'un second ensemble ou sous-ensemble constitué ou comprenant une coque d'habillage 4 et un poussoir 3. Le premier ensemble ou sous-ensemble est reçu de manière amovible à l'intérieur de la coque d'habillage 4 du second ensemble, et constitue ainsi une recharge qui peut être retirée pour être remplacée par une autre.The fluid dispenser of the present invention consists of a first assembly consisting of a reservoir on which is mounted a dispensing member such as a pump or a valve, and a second assembly or subassembly constituted or comprising a covering shell 4 and a

Le poussoir 3 comprend un manchon de raccordement 31 qui s'étend axialement vers le bas. Ce manchon 31 définit intérieurement un canal d'alimentation de produit fluide qui s'étend jusqu'au niveau d'un orifice de distribution 32 qui est formé latéralement dans ce mode de réalisation. On peut également remarquer que le poussoir 3 comprend deux pattes souples 34 qui sont disposées de manière diamétralement opposée. Un téton 33, qui fait saillie radialement vers l'extérieur, est formé au niveau de l'extrémité libre de chaque patte souple 34. Ainsi, le téton 33 est susceptible d'être déplacé radialement vers l'intérieur par déformation élastique de la patte souple 34. Le poussoir 3 comprend également un aimant de poussoir 35 qui est engagé autour du manchon de raccordement 31.Cet aimant de poussoir 35 peut par exemple présenter une forme cylindrique annulaire et être engagé autour du manchon 31 par serrage de manière à assurer sa fixation. Le poussoir 35 peut être couvert ou masqué par une frette 36, qui peut être réalisée en un matériau ferromagnétique ou non.The

Il faut bien comprendre que les forces magnétiques exercées entre l'élément ferromagnétique 25' et l'aimant de poussoir 35 sont supérieures à celles exercées entre l'aimant de poussoir 35 et les deux aimants de coque 48, de manière à ne pas perturber le fonctionnement du distributeur. Toutefois, les forces magnétiques exercées entre les aimants 35 et 48 subsistent toujours, et participent avantageusement à réduire la force nécessaire pour enfoncer le poussoir 3. On peut également se servir de la présence des aimants de coque 48 pour renforcer la connexion entre la bague 24 et l'aimant de poussoir 35.It must be understood that the magnetic forces exerted between the ferromagnetic element 25 'and the

Sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, on peut très bien prévoir un premier ensemble R dont la tige d'actionnement 21 est dépourvue d'aimant ou d'élément ferromagnétique : dans ce cas, une simple connexion mécanique traditionnelle entre la tige d'actionnement 21 et le manchon de raccordement 31 est effectuée. Toutefois, l'utilisation d'aimant ou d'élément ferromagnétique au niveau de la tige d'actionnement 21 est préférée, étant donné que le poussoir 3 est déjà équipé d'un aimant 35 ou d'un élément ferromagnétique 35'.Without departing from the scope of the invention, it is quite possible to provide a first set R whose
Grâce à l'invention, le poussoir qui est prisonnier de la coque d'habillage peut être maintenu dans une position déterminée sans mettre en oeuvre des moyens de maintien mécaniques, qui pourraient gêner son déplacement axial lors des phases de distribution de produit fluide.Thanks to the invention, the pusher which is trapped in the covering shell can be held in a predetermined position without using mechanical holding means, which could hinder its axial displacement during the fluid dispensing phases.
