DESCRIPTION

Dosing container

Technology Sector

The present invention relates to a dosing container for air fresheners, disinfectants or the like, of the type comprising a male container with a female wooden plug or porous material for the continuous but limited passage of the contents to the outside. This container comprises means to ensure the tightness of the contact between the cap and the container.

State of the art

Air freshener containers, disinfectants (for example, antipolillas), etc. are known. which continuously release, but in limited volume, an amount of the active liquid through the plug, which is porous. The liquid evaporates continuously, releasing the active substance in the environment with the appropriate dose. When it is desired to increase the dose, the user turns the container to wet the cap and increase evaporation.

A problem with these caps is that, when the container has to be turned, any small failure in the adjustment between the container and the cap affects the tightness and causes leaks or excessively large increases in the flow of liquid that evaporates.

The applicant does not know a solution similar to the invention.

Brief Explanation of the Invention

The invention consists of a dosing container, for air fresheners, disinfectants or the like, according to the claims. The cap of the invention is made of porous material, preferably of wood, with a mouth, female, of entry and fixation of a male mouth of a container or bottle with the corresponding opening.

According to the invention, the container has a small rib or longitudinal bulge in the contour of the opening. The size of the nerve will be less than one millimeter, generally less than half a millimeter. However, it will depend on the size of the container, and may be larger the larger the size of the mouth.

Likewise, the container may have a series of longitudinal projections in the part of the mouth furthest from the opening of the container. The projections will be nailed with the closure in the porous material of the plug to prevent accidental opening.

An embodiment includes in the package a cardan in the final section of the mouth, corresponding to a forming made in the cap.

Preferably, an incision aligned with the opening of the container will be made in the lid. It will generally be centered with this opening, but it is not essential. More preferably, it will have the same shape as the opening, but will be of a smaller size than this.

A chamfer can be made in the opening, so that the chamfered edges of the container form a funnel for reinsertion of the liquid.

Description of the drawings

For a better understanding of the invention, the following figures are included.

Modes of realization of the invention

Next, a mode of embodiment of the invention is briefly described as an illustrative and non-limiting example of this.

The invention consists of a dosing container formed by a container (1) or bottle with a stopper (2) of wood, cork or other porous material. This plug (2) consists of a body (3) where a fixing element (4) can be arranged as a hole for the passage of a string, a clamp, ... without the method chosen being relevant to the invention.

The cap (2) comprises a mouth (5) for the introduction of the opening (6) of the container (1) where the liquid or active substance is maintained. This can be perfume, a moth or other insect repellent, a substance to neutralize odors, etc. The union between the container (1) and the cap (2) can be by thread or by pressure. Therefore, the cap (2) performs the functions of "female" in the union with the container (1) "male".

The container (1) has a rib (7) or longitudinal protuberance on the contour of its opening (6). By pressing the plug (2) in place, the nerve (7) penetrates the porous material of the plug, making body with it, and preventing the liquid from leaking through the space or tolerance between the container (1) and the plug (2). This nerve (1) creates a sealing ring that acts as a toric joint and does not allow the wet area of the plug (2) to drip over the space or tolerance mentioned between the mouth (8), that is, the part of the container ( 1) introduced into the mouth (5) of the cap (2), and this.

In addition, the container (1) can have a series of longitudinal projections (9) at the height of the last thread of the thread (the furthest from the opening (6)). These projections (9) are stuck in the material of the cap (2) and make it possible for the two pieces not to be unscrewed by the vibrations of their transport, of the vehicle where it is applied, ...

The container (1) can also have a cord (10) in the limit of introduction of its mouth (8) in the mouth (5) of the cap (1), which also acts as a toric joint when inserted into the female (cap ( 2)). In parallel, the plug (2) will have a shape to perfectly receive this cord (10) without tolerances.

Between these three systems, alternative or coincident, a barrier is made to maintain the tightness and sealing of the entire assembly.

In the cap (2) proper a modification can be made that helps the tightness, forming an incision (11) facing the mouth (8) of the container (1)

(figure 2). This incision (11) allows the liquid to accumulate in the ideal position so that when it is repositioned in its usual position (vertical, with the cap (2) at the top), most of the liquid is aligned with the mouth (8). Ideally, the incision (11) has the same shape as the mouth (8), generally round, and a similar size 5 or smaller.

The mouth (8) may have a chamfering (12) that serves as a funnel for the liquid that falls from the wet plug (2).

Claims (4)

Dosing container with a container (1) and a plug (2) of porous material, where the cap (2) has a mouth (5 female inlet of a male mouth (8) of a 5 container (1) with an opening (6) characterized in that the container (1) has a small rib (8) or longitudinal bulge in the contour of the opening (6). 2. Container, according to the first claim, which has a series of longitudinal projections (9) at the end of the mouth (8) furthest from the opening (7). 10 3.
