Dadurch wird ermöglicht, dass die Ausgabehülse, welche nach dem Positionieren des Adapters auf einer Behälteröffnung eines Druckbehälters mit der Ausgabehülse an einem Ventil des Druckbehälters angreift, entlang einer Längsachse des Adaptergrundkörpers in der Lage bzw. Position veränderbar ist. Durch diese elastische Verbindung kann eine geführte Verschiebebewegung des Ventils erfolgen. Dadurch kann in einfacher Weise die Aufgabe eines Mediums aus dem Druckbehälter angesteuert werden. Zudem kann eine hohe Anzahl von Betätigungen ermöglicht sein.This object is achieved by an adapter for a product dispenser, in which the dispensing sleeve is displaceably connected to the adapter base body with an elastic connection. The elastic connection between the dispensing sleeve and the adapter body is formed as an annular or disc-shaped membrane extending therebetween. This makes it possible that the output sleeve, which engages after positioning of the adapter on a container opening of a pressure vessel with the output sleeve on a valve of the pressure vessel, along a longitudinal axis of the adapter body in the position or position is variable. By this elastic connection, a guided displacement movement of the valve can take place. As a result, the task of a medium from the pressure vessel can be controlled in a simple manner. In addition, a high number of operations can be made possible.
Bevorzugt ist vorgesehen, dass die Ausgabehülse selbsthaltend in einer Ausgangsposition zum Adaptergrundkörper angeordnet ist und die Ausgabehülse durch eine Kraftbeaufschlagung zumindest teilweise entlang der Längsrichtung des Adaptergrundkörpers in eine aktive Position überführbar ist. Dies weist den Vorteil auf, dass eine Ausgabe eines Mediums aus dem Druckbehälter nur bei einer aktiven Betätigung des Adapters ermöglicht ist und die Ausgangsposition des Adapters eine NC-Position (Normally Closed-Position) einnimmt. Dadurch kann ein unbeabsichtigtes Ausgeben des Mediums verhindert werden.It is preferably provided that the dispensing sleeve is arranged self-holding in an initial position to the adapter base body and the dispensing sleeve is at least partially transferred to an active position by a force application along the longitudinal direction of the adapter base body. This has the advantage that an output of a medium from the pressure vessel is only possible with an active actuation of the adapter and the initial position of the adapter occupies a NC position (normally closed position). As a result, unintentional dispensing of the medium can be prevented.
Des Weiteren weist die elastische Verbindung den Vorteil auf, dass beim Überführen aus der Ausgangsposition in die aktive Position eine Rückstellkraft aufgebaut wird, so dass nach dem Ausgeben eines Mediums und Lösen der Kraftbeaufschlagung auf die Ausgabehülse ein selbständiges Rücksetzen der Ausgabehülse in die Ausgangsposition erfolgt.Furthermore, the elastic connection has the advantage that during the transfer from the starting position to the active position, a restoring force is built up, so that after dispensing a medium and releasing the application of force to the dispensing sleeve, an independent resetting of the dispensing sleeve to the starting position he follows.
Der Adaptergrundkörper umfasst bevorzugt einen koaxial zur Längsachse ausgerichteten Flansch, wobei zwischen dem Flansch und der Ausgabehülse eine Stirnfläche sich erstreckt, die gegenüber der Längsachse geneigt ist und die elastische Verbindung zwischen der Stirnfläche und der Ausgabehülse vorgesehen ist. Dies ermöglicht eine einfache konstruktive Anbindung der Ausgabehülse zum Adaptergrundkörper und eine Ausgestaltung der dazwischen angeordneten elastischen Verbindung. Bevorzugt sind in einer Ausgangsposition der Ausgabehülse zum Adaptergrundkörper die Stirnfläche und die elastische Verbindung in einer gemeinsamen Ebene angeordnet. Dadurch wird beim Überführen der Ausgabehülse in eine aktive Position die elastische Verbindung gegenüber der Neigung der Stirnfläche nach innen gedrückt, wodurch die Rückstellkraft erzeugt ist. Dadurch kann ein Schnappeffekt erzielt werden, der die selbständige Rückführung der Ausgabehülse in die Ausgangsposition zum Adaptergrundkörper ermöglicht.The adapter base body preferably comprises a flange aligned coaxially with the longitudinal axis, wherein between the flange and the output sleeve an end face extends, which is inclined relative to the longitudinal axis and the elastic connection between the end face and the output sleeve is provided. This allows a simple structural connection of the output sleeve to the adapter base body and an embodiment of the elastic connection arranged therebetween. Preferably, the end face and the elastic connection are arranged in a common plane in an initial position of the output sleeve to the adapter base body. Characterized the elastic connection is pressed against the inclination of the end face inwardly when transferring the output sleeve to an active position, whereby the restoring force is generated. Thereby, a snap effect can be achieved, which allows the independent return of the output sleeve in the starting position to the adapter body.
Innerhalb des Flansches des Adaptergrundkörpers ist bevorzugt ein Befestigungsabschnitt vorgesehen, der sich zumindest abschnittsweise entlang des Flansches erstreckt und an einem Rand des Druckbehälters durch eine Rast- und/oder Schnappverbindung befestigbar ist. Ein einfaches Aufsetzen und Andrücken des Adaptergrundkörpers auf dem Rand des Druckbehälters genügt zu dessen Befestigung. Dadurch ist eine schnelle Montage gegeben.Within the flange of the adapter body, a fastening portion is preferably provided, which extends at least partially along the flange and can be fastened to an edge of the pressure vessel by a latching and / or snap connection. A simple placement and pressing the adapter body on the edge of the pressure vessel is sufficient for its attachment. This gives a quick installation.
Der Befestigungsabschnitt am Flansch des Adaptergrundkörpers weist bevorzugt mehrere im Abstand zueinander ausgebildete Stege auf, die mit dem umlaufenden Flansch einen U-förmigen Angriffsbereich bilden, durch welche der Befestigungsabschnitt formschlüssig an dem Rand des Behältergrundkörpers angreift. Der Befestigungsabschnitt kann kostengünstig ausgestaltet sein.The attachment portion on the flange of the adapter base body preferably has a plurality of spaced-apart webs, which form a U-shaped engagement region with the peripheral flange, through which the attachment portion engages positively on the edge of the container base body. The attachment portion may be designed inexpensively.
An der Ausgabehülse des Adapters ist in Aufsetzrichtung auf den Druckbehälter ein Anschluss vorgesehen, der an einem Ventil des Druckbehälters angreift. Dadurch kann eine Reduzierung der Bauteile erzielt werden.At the output sleeve of the adapter a connection is provided in Aufsetzrichtung on the pressure vessel, which is connected to a valve of the Pressure vessel attacks. As a result, a reduction of the components can be achieved.
Die Ausgabehülse des Adapters weist dem Anschluss gegenüberliegend eine Aufnahme für eine Tülle auf. Diese kann auswechselbar aufgeschraubt werden.The output sleeve of the adapter has the connection opposite a receptacle for a spout. This can be screwed interchangeable.
Bevorzugt ist vorgesehen, dass zumindest der Adaptergrundkörper, die Ausgabehülse und die elastische Verbindung einstückig ausgebildet sind. Dadurch sind Herstellungskosten reduziert und der Montageaufwand vereinfacht.It is preferably provided that at least the adapter base body, the output sleeve and the elastic connection are integrally formed. As a result, manufacturing costs are reduced and simplifies assembly work.
Bevorzugt ist zumindest der Adaptergrundkörper, die Ausgabehülse und die elastische Verbindung als ein Kunststoff-Spritzgussteil hergestellt. Beispielsweise kann der Adapter aus einem thermoplastischen Elastomer, insbesondere Polypropylen, Polyethylen oder dergleichen hergestellt sein.Preferably, at least the adapter base body, the output sleeve and the elastic connection is produced as a plastic injection-molded part. For example, the adapter can be made of a thermoplastic elastomer, in particular polypropylene, polyethylene or the like.
