  • the present invention aims on the one hand to improve such a pocket tank with the aim of being able to distribute volatile products such as for example hydrogen peroxide used as a disinfectant and which, due to its strong degassing, cannot be stored easily directly into soft pockets.
  • the invention also aims to improve the welding of a pocket on a device closure such as a valve holder dome and to offer a pocket reservoir that can accommodate additional equipment to increase the possibilities of using the distributor box.
  • the present invention firstly proposes a pocket tank, for a pressure distributor housing, comprising a pocket and a dome provided, in the lower part, with a tubular base provided with an external profile for receiving and welding a neck of the bag and, in the upper part, a housing for receiving a valve for dispensing a product contained in the bag, for which the tubular base and the neck of the pocket welded to said external profile are each provided with a degassing hole at said external profile.
  • the bag can be filled with a product likely to degas during storage of the bag such as for example hydrogen peroxide used in vaporization to disinfect premises.
  • the degassing hole of the pocket is covered with a semi-permeable membrane glued or welded to the pocket and adapted to allow a gas to pass from the inside of the pocket to the outside of the pocket while retaining a contained liquid. in the pocket.
  • the dome comprises a tubular welding part of a pocket whose external profile is an elliptical section profile with refined ends forming fins.
  • the external profile can advantageously include a first annular groove for receiving excess material from the pocket after welding, the first annular groove being surrounded by annular beads.
  • the invention provides a dome whose tubular base opens at the upper part into a bowl made in the dome, the bowl forming said housing for receiving a valve ending in the upper part with an annular collar overhanging a second annular groove for crimping a valve holder cup.
  • the bowl allows easy filling of the pocket before crimping the valve onto the dome.
  • the invention relates to a pocket reservoir device and adapter for mounting external equipment, comprising a pocket reservoir provided with a dome for which the dome has fins, for fixing the adapter itself. even provided with internal fixing ramps complementary to said fins.
  • This adapter allows the device to become a refill for any application system of the gun type for application such as for example a polyurethane foam applicator gun, projection, dosing; but also in machines either for maintenance: greasing, lubrication, disinfection, etc. or for depositing on manufactured products: glue, ink, etc.
  • the dome includes an external thread for fixing the adapter itself provided with a complementary internal thread with or without a stop.
  • the adapter can advantageously comprise a rear part for gripping and fixing on the dome and a front part for fixing an accessory provided with a standardized external thread.
  • the invention further proposes a refillable dispenser box comprising a pocket reservoir according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 represents a pressurized dispenser housing and a bag reservoir recharging the dispenser housing and which comprises various aspects of the invention.
  • the pocket tank comprises a pocket 50 and a dome 20.
  • the pocket is shown before mounting on the dome.
  • the pocket of generally rectangular shape has two faces whose lower edge 54 and the side edges 51 are welded while the upper edge being intended to be welded to the dome allows at this stage the opening of the pocket.
  • the dome 20 is provided, in the lower part, with a tubular base 22 provided with an external profile 22a, 23, 24, 25 for receiving and welding a neck (53) of the pocket.
  • FIG. 1 represents the shape of the top of the pocket after welding to the dome.
  • the tubular base and the neck of the pocket welded to said external profile are each provided with a degassing hole 60, 61 at said external profile.
  • the degassing hole has a small diameter of the order of a millimeter or a few millimeters.
  • This degassing hole is advantageously made after welding the pocket on the dome by drilling with a rotating drill or with a heating tip, the figures representing the dome and the disassembled pocket already provided with holes 60, 61 being provided only to for illustrative purposes, the holes being preferably made after welding to facilitate their production.
  • the pocket hole area is covered, after welding on the dome and drilling, with a piece of a semi-permeable membrane 62 glued or welded to the pocket.
  • This membrane is adapted to allow a gas to pass from the inside of the bag to the outside of the bag while retaining a liquid contained in the bag.
  • the dome is provided in its lower part with a tubular base 22.
  • This tubular base 22 has an external profile of elliptical section with refined ends forming fins 22a which serve as additional welding surfaces of small section for the pocket in order to limit the risk of loss of sealing at the weld level.
  • the external profile comprises a first annular groove 24 for receiving excess material from the pocket after welding surrounded by annular beads 23, 25.
  • This configuration further improves the welding of the pocket on the dome, strengthens it and avoids leaks at the weld.
  • the dome is provided with a housing 30, shown in particular in figures 3 and 4 , to receive a valve 90 for dispensing a product contained in the bag, the valve being mounted in a traditional manner in a valve holder cup 91 as shown in figure 2 .
  • the housing forms a bowl made in the dome, the bowl ending in the upper part with an annular collar 26 for crimping a collar 92 of the valve holder cup, the curved part of which during crimping is housed in a second annular groove 28 .
  • the dome is a one-piece plastic part that is easily produced by molding, is inexpensive and robust. In addition, due to its one-piece construction, the dome is completely waterproof.
  • the upper annular collar 26 and the second annular groove 28 allow tight and robust crimping of the valve holder cup 91, the refillable housing made of plastic material provided with its refill tank thus being able to withstand high internal pressure beyond 8 bars depending on carrying out the fixing of the dome to the housing.
  • the dome comprises means for fixing an adapter 40 for fixing accessories such as a spray gun.
  • the dome has fins 29a, for fixing the adapter 40 itself provided with internal ramps 42a, 42b complementary to said fins.
