Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for re-filling a product in the form of liquid, gel or cream from a travel dispenser of said product.
  • Travel dispensers are known which are sometimes called “bag cases” because their capacity allows them to be carried in a handbag. These travel dispensers are used in a known manner to dispense, more particularly to vaporize, liquid product, for example perfume.
  • this type of dispenser When this type of dispenser is empty, in order to be able to be used again, it needs to be refilled with perfume. To do this, it is necessary to dismantle the aforementioned unitary assembly, for example by unscrewing, from the bottle in order to separate the two elements.
  • This bottle must then be filled with a bottle serving as a reservoir, also called a source bottle, and which generally has a large capacity.
  • the source bottle obviously needs to be able to be easily opened in order to allow perfume to be poured inside the bottle to be refilled.
  • the source vial is a stopper type vial.
  • the perfume is in contact with air when it is poured from the source bottle to the bottle to be refilled and it can therefore oxidize, thus leading to a possible deterioration of the product.
  • This travel dispenser makes it possible to separate / uncouple the constituent elements of the dispenser in a different way from the prior art into two distinct sets and to block the pump of one of the two sets in a low position with the setting passage. to the open air in order to be ready for a refill operation which will take place through the vent passage (the method referred to above can be seen as a method of positioning a travel dispenser in refill mode).
  • the pump therefore does not need to be separated from the bottle to allow refilling.
  • the bottom of the bottle which is placed at the opposite end of said bottle is not used to refill the bottle as in one of the known techniques presented above.
  • the dispenser bottle therefore does not need to be opened, which avoids product oxidation, the risk of product loss and soiling of the bottle to be refilled, as well as of the surface used for the operation. of re-filling.
  • the number of operations which are necessary to put the dispenser in the refill position is also reduced.
  • the operations targeted by the above process and which are to be performed by a user are particularly easy to perform.
  • the bottle to be refilled can be of the conventional type and, in particular, therefore does not need to have an unconventional bottom.
  • the pump is generally of the type comprising a top valve and a bottom valve (when the pump is placed in the upper part of the bottle, that is to say when the dispenser is in a vertical position in dispensing mode).
  • the lower position of the pump which is mentioned above corresponds to a position of the pump (called the pre-filling or pre-refilling position) in which the vent passage is open and, when the pump is turned over (when the first assembly carrying the pump is turned over), the top and bottom valves of the pump are opened either by gravity or under the increase in pressure in the bottle during the introduction of the refill product.
  • the opening of these valves makes it possible, during the refilling operation, to introduce the refill product, such as liquid, through the charging passage. the free air, while the air present in the bottle is expelled outside the bottle through the open valves of the pump as the volume of product is introduced into the bottle.
  • the valves can adopt any suitable configuration.
  • the travel dispenser has the same advantages as the method briefly described above and therefore will not be repeated here.
  • This dispenser simply requires fitting, in the first assembly, in its part located outside the bottle, as well as in the second assembly, mechanisms to block the pump in the low position and to allow the mechanical separation of the two assemblies when the user wishes to refill the bottle which is empty or almost empty.
  • the pump and bottle do not need to be changed.
  • These mechanisms require, for the user, very simple gestures such as one or more rotations and / or one or more translations of an assembly (or of a part of an assembly) with respect to the other.
  • the travel dispenser makes it possible to dispense a product in the form of liquid, gel or cream and it comprises, for this purpose, a device for dispensing product outside the dispenser which is suitable for the product to be distributed.
  • the dispensing device is a vaporizer.
  • the travel dispenser has a relatively small footprint since, as its name suggests, it is intended to be moved with a user and in particular to be transported, for example inside a travel bag, of a suitcase or purse.
  • the distributor of travel must therefore not be too bulky or too heavy to be easily transportable. Being not very bulky, its product capacity is therefore limited and it is therefore intended to be refilled numerous times over time. For this, it is therefore particularly useful to be able to refill the dispenser in a simple and reliable manner, without however altering the product during the refilling operations.
  • the travel dispenser comprises two assemblies which are mechanically coupled to one another when the dispenser is able to operate in product dispensing mode.
  • the dispenser is in this mode, for example when it is carried by the user and also when it is about to be used, in use by the latter or before being transformed to be placed in another mode called refill mode.
  • the travel dispenser is in this other mode of use when the user wishes to put product back inside the dispenser (refill).
  • the two sets must be mechanically uncoupled / separated from each other.
  • the distributor 10 of the figure 1 comprises a first assembly 12, here called lower assembly (when the dispenser is in a vertical position and placed on a flat surface), which is mechanically coupled with a second assembly 14, called upper, forming a cover and which, in general, comprises the product dispensing device 16 already mentioned above and an actuating device (for example a push block) of the dispenser.
  • the components of the distributor are shown very schematically on the figure 1 and additional details will be visible in the other figures and in particular on the exploded view of the figure 2 .
  • the realization details that appear on the figures 3 and following do not necessarily correspond to the details appearing on the figure 1 . However, this in no way modifies the explanations and the principle of the invention.
  • the pump 22 is arranged in the upper part of the bottle 20 (the pump is engaged in the opening of the bottle 20, opening opposite the bottom, and is partly in the bottle and outside it) when the dispenser is in a vertical or substantially vertical position, ready to be used in dispensing mode, as is the case on the figure 1 .
  • the vent passage is generally circumscribed inside the first assembly 12, and takes the form of an internal passage arranged between the pump and the bottle.
  • the configuration of the internal passage changes as a function of the axial position of the pump inside the bottle. This is how this internal passage is closed when the pump is in the high position, thus preventing outside air from entering the interior of the bottle.
  • the pump is in a low position, the outside air can penetrate inside the bottle through the internal passage open between the pump and the inside of said bottle. This passage is particularly visible on the figures 3 and 4 .
  • the pump and the bottle are standard / conventional components on the market. This means that the dispenser 10 can be made without having to question the design of the pump and the bottle, which is very advantageous over existing solutions which may require having a specific bottle and / or pump.
  • the pump 22 is connected in the lower part to a dip tube 23 which extends in the direction of the bottom of the bottle and communicates with the lower part of the bottle in order to withdraw product therefrom.
  • the pump is for example of a known type and, for this purpose, comprises a pumping system with two internal valves, namely a high valve and a low valve.
  • a high valve and a low valve In distribution mode, when the pump is pressed and in particular at the end of the pump stroke (lowest position), the top valve is open while the bottom valve is closed in this pump configuration. When the support is released, the top valve closes and the bottom valve opens.
  • refill mode when the pump is in the inverted position, the two valves will be opened either by gravity or as a result of the pressure rise in the bottle during the introduction of the refill product.
  • the low position of the pump that is sought to be obtained by actuating said pump in order to be able to then proceed to refilling the bottle is a low or depressed position of the pump for which the vent passage is open and for which, in the inverted position of the pump, the two top and bottom valves are open or able to open with the pressure inside the bottle.
  • the valves do not necessarily have the configuration illustrated in the figures.
  • This low position can be qualified as a low pre-refill position. In the remainder of the description, when it comes to the low position of the pump, it should be understood that this is the low pre-refilling position unless it is agreed otherwise.
  • the first assembly 12 also comprises in this embodiment a refill interface 24 which is mounted above the pump 22 and the bottle ( fig. 1 ), and more particularly between the actuating device of the second assembly 14 and the pump.
  • the refill interface 24 integrates an internal path to allow, in refill mode, the routing of the refill product from an external zone or part of the interface where the product is located to the entry of the vent passage described above between the pump and the bottle. As will be seen later, this internal path is plugged / closed by a closure member when the dispenser is in dispensing mode and it is only open under the pressure of the refill fluid when the dispenser is in dispensing mode. of re-filling.
  • the second upper assembly 14 is configured to be able, under the effect of an external action (action which is generally exerted by the finger of a user exerting a downward vertical pressure F1 on the actuator), to actuate the pump 22 of the first assembly 12 in the low position (depending on the exerted by the user, the axial / vertical position of the pump can be more or less low) and open the passage for venting this assembly in order to allow the product to be conveyed from the bottle to the distribution 16.
  • an external action action which is generally exerted by the finger of a user exerting a downward vertical pressure F1 on the actuator
  • the aforementioned elements 42 and 44 together form a push unit which constitutes an actuating device 18 of the dispenser 10 and includes the dispensing device.
  • the dispenser 10 comprises a lower outer casing or barrel 50 in which the bottle 20 is housed and which forms, together with the upper outer casing 40 of the second assembly 14, the outer casing of the travel distributor 10. It will be noted that the drum 50 can be part of the first assembly 12 described above.
  • the dispenser may include an element of absorbent material 52, such as an absorbent felt, of generally annular shape which is arranged around the lower part 26b of the lower cam enclosing the neck 21 of the bottle.
  • the element 52 is placed between said lower part 26b and the internal face of the barrel 50 when the dispenser is assembled as shown in the figures. figures 1 and 3 .
  • Various implementation details may appear in the figures and will not be described because they are not necessary for the understanding of the invention.
  • a protective capsule 54 ( fig. 3 ), known per se, is mounted, for example by crimping, around the neck 21 of the bottle and the projecting portion 22a of the pump emerging from the neck so as to define an opening O through which this portion of the pump passes to exit the bottle .
  • This opening O is in a way an opening of the bottle since it allows access to the interior of said bottle when the cap is in place.
  • An annular part 55 is placed against the internal face of the capsule and externally borders the opening O of said capsule.
  • This part 55 serves as a support for a part (for example a shoulder 22b) of the pump when the latter is in the high position and makes it possible, in cooperation with said pump, to close the vent passage which originates behind the opening O of the capsule, inside the latter.
  • FIG. 5A a method of positioning the dispenser in refilling mode is illustrated by the main successive steps / operations of the figures 5A to 5E which lead to the disconnection of the two assemblies 12 and 14 of the distributor.
  • the figures 5F and 5G illustrate, for their part, the following steps / operations of refilling the dispenser bottle.
  • FIG 5A illustrates an optional position of the dispenser in which the dispenser is in the blocked / locked position: no actuation of the pump is possible. This position is made possible by the presence of a mechanism for locking the actuation of the pump which will now be described with reference to figures 6A-C which are partial enlarged views of the top of the dispenser.
  • the pump cannot therefore be actuated in vertical translation.
  • the lug 30c and its stop therefore form the pump actuation locking mechanism.
  • Other mechanisms for locking in rotation and for axial locking between parts linked to the two assemblies can alternatively be used.
  • the cam track 48b (the following description also applies to the cam track 48c which cooperates with the lug 36c) extends first from the bottom 48b1 which forms a closed end of the groove, over a first portion P1 of length or circumference of the cam track which corresponds to a first angular sector.
  • This first portion P1 extends horizontally, therefore at the same axial position or altitude (position which is defined along the vertical axis of the assembly / stacking of the various elements on the figures 1 and 6A ).
  • the lug 36b moves on this portion of the cam track (while being guided by the latter) it maintains the same axial position or altitude relative to the axis of the distributor.
  • the cam track 48b then extends over a second portion P2 inclined along its length (visible on the figure 6H ) which corresponds to a second angular sector while orienting itself progressively downwards so as to lower / decrease the axial position or altitude of the groove until it reaches, at the opposite end of the groove, a portion of vertical groove P3 which makes it possible to axially disengage the lug 36b (and the lug 36c in the vertical groove portion of the corresponding cam track 48c) and thus to axially release the hoop insert 48 which is then ready to be withdrawn (withdrawal of the second set 14).
  • the second assembly 14 (in particular the hoop insert 48) is rotated in the counterclockwise direction indicated by the arrow on the figure 6D , which allows the lug 36b to slide inside its cam track 48b (it is the cam track which moves here), on its portion P1, and thus to modify the radial position of the lug 30c relative to the radial position of the lower axial stop 26a so as to be radially offset from the latter as illustrated in figure 6E .
  • the rotation is carried out along an angular sector of approximately 30 °. In this position, the lug 36b is no longer in abutment at the bottom of the housing 48b1 ( fig.
  • the position of the Figure 5C corresponds to a position of the dispenser in which the pump has been actuated in the low position by a vertical support of the finger of a user on the actuating device of the dispenser. This position is obtained as shown on the figures 6F and 6G respectively analogous to figures 6D and 6E . In these figures, the pump has been depressed in the low refill position but is not yet blocked in this low position.
  • the upper cam 36 surrounds the transfer part 30 and comprises on its internal surface two internal cam tracks 36d and 36e, diametrically opposed, arranged respectively above the lugs 30c and 30d so as to guide the latter during a movement of relative rotation between the two parts 36 and 30.
  • Each internal cam track 36d, 36e is inclined in the general shape of a propeller portion so that the axial position of the sliding lug along this cam track gradually descends along the axis of the distributor.
  • the internal symmetrical cam tracks 36d, 36e serve to block the pump in the low refilling position by preventing said pump from rising ( figs 6I and 6J ) and are also used to accompany a smooth ascent of the pump (the shape of the propeller or portion of the propeller of the cam tracks ensures this gentle rise) under the pressure of the pump spring during the unlocking / unlocking operation, in order to return to distribution mode.
  • the position of the Figure 5D corresponds to a position of the dispenser in which the pump which is in the lower position will be blocked / locked and the second assembly 14 will be separated from the first assembly 12 of the dispenser. This position is obtained as shown on the figures 6H to 6J .
  • the aforementioned position is obtained by rotating the second assembly 14 (in particular the hoop insert 48) in the anti-clockwise direction indicated by the arrow on the figure 6H in order to slide the lug 36b in the portion P2 of its cam track 48b (it is the cam track which moves here) until it reaches the vertical portion P3 facing the open end of the cam track (the same applies to the lug 36c which moves simultaneously in its corresponding cam track 48c).
