Campo técnicotechnical field
La presente invención se refiere a una botella de gas, en particular de tipo portátil y diseñada para usarse para suministrar gas a un dispositivo de usuario externo, tales como barbacoas, estufas, lámparas y dispositivos similares, que incluye una válvula de seguridad para limitar flujos de salida de gas después de la desconexión de la propia botella, cuando aún no está vacía, del dispositivo de usuario externo.The present invention refers to a gas bottle, in particular of the portable type and designed to be used to supply gas to an external user device, such as barbecues, stoves, lamps and similar devices, which includes a safety valve to limit flows. gas outlet after the disconnection of the bottle itself, when it is not yet empty, from the external user device.
Antecedentes de la técnicaBackground art
Se conocen botellas de gas del tipo indicado anteriormente, que comprenden esencialmente:Gas cylinders of the type indicated above are known, essentially comprising:
- un recipiente sellado, lleno de gas a presión, por ejemplo, gas butano o una mezcla de gas butano y propano, y dotado, en su pared superior, de una parte que puede perforarse para permitir el suministro de gas al dispositivo de usuario externo; y- a sealed container, filled with gas under pressure, for example, butane gas or a mixture of butane and propane gas, and provided, on its upper wall, with a part that can be pierced to allow the supply of gas to the external user device ; and
- un limitador de fugas o válvula de seguridad colocada dentro del recipiente para limitar al menos el flujo de salida de gas en el caso en el que la parte que puede perforarse se ha perforado y la propia botella no está conectada al dispositivo de usuario externo.- a leak limiter or safety valve placed inside the container to limit at least the outflow of gas in the case where the punctureable part has been punctured and the bottle itself is not connected to the external user device.
En particular, la válvula normalmente se fija dentro del recipiente de la botella por medio de una estructura de soporte encajada entre la pared superior del propio recipiente y su pared lateral, sobre la que se apoya en un resalte anular interno específico. Esta solución es algo compleja y, sobre todo, costosa en relación con el coste total para la comercialización de botellas de este tipo.In particular, the valve is normally fixed inside the container of the bottle by means of a support structure fitted between the upper wall of the container itself and its side wall, on which it rests on a specific internal annular projection. This solution is somewhat complex and, above all, expensive in relation to the total cost of marketing bottles of this type.
Por lo tanto, se siente intensamente la necesidad de encontrar sistemas de fijación de válvula alternativos, que sean más simples y menos costosos que los disponibles actualmente.Therefore, the need is strongly felt to find alternative valve attachment systems, which are simpler and less expensive than those currently available.
El documento WO 2015/092447 da a conocer una válvula de seguridad para una botella de gas fijada, por medio de una sustancia adhesiva o por medio de un armazón de soporte, alrededor de la parte que puede perforarse de la pared superior del recipiente de la botella de gas.WO 2015/092447 discloses a safety valve for a gas bottle fixed, by means of an adhesive substance or by means of a support frame, around the pierceable part of the upper wall of the container of the gas bottle.
En particular, la válvula está fabricada completamente de un material elásticamente flexible y comprende una parte fija, conectada en una sola pieza, en uso, a la pared superior del recipiente con la excepción de una pluralidad de pasos de gas, y una parte móvil de tipo tapa, que normalmente es cóncava hacia la parte que puede perforarse del recipiente y se empuja hacia abajo, en uso, por una parte del dispositivo de usuario externo después de perforar la parte que puede perforarse de la botella de gas para ensanchar los pasos de gas.In particular, the valve is made entirely of an elastically flexible material and comprises a fixed part, connected in one piece, in use, to the upper wall of the container with the exception of a plurality of gas passages, and a movable part of cap type, which is normally concave towards the pierceable part of the container and is pushed down, in use, by a part of the external user device after piercing the pierceable part of the gas bottle to widen the opening passages gas.
En el caso de separación del dispositivo de usuario externo de la botella, la parte móvil, empujada por la presión del gas, tiende a doblarse hacia arriba cambiando su concavidad por convexidad y cerrando el orificio hecho en la parte que puede perforarse de la botella. Sin embargo, se ha encontrado que la presión del gas dentro del recipiente de la botella generalmente no es suficiente para hacer que la parte móvil obstruya el orificio de la parte que puede perforarse, ya que el movimiento requerido de la parte móvil es considerable.In the case of separation of the external user device from the bottle, the mobile part, pushed by the gas pressure, tends to bend upwards changing its concavity to convexity and closing the hole made in the perforable part of the bottle. However, it has been found that the gas pressure within the bottle container is generally not sufficient to cause the movable part to obstruct the hole of the pierceable part, since the required movement of the movable part is considerable.
Los documentos GR1008914B y EP1406041A2 dan a conocer botellas de gas como se define en el preámbulo de la reivindicación 1.Documents GR1008914B and EP1406041A2 disclose gas cylinders as defined in the preamble of claim 1.

In the illustrated example, the rim 13 extends substantially along a plane orthogonal to to the A axis.
La parte móvil 12 de la válvula 10 se extiende en voladizo desde el reborde 13 y es elásticamente móvil con respecto al mismo a lo largo del eje A.The movable part 12 of the valve 10 cantilevered from the rim 13 and is elastically movable with respect to it along the axis A.
Ventajosamente, la parte móvil 12 comprende una parte de sellado 14, que está dispuesta en una posición radialmente más interior con respecto al reborde 13 con referencia al eje A y está cargada elásticamente en un primer sentido R a lo largo del propio eje A para funcionar de manera conjunta, en uso, contra la pared 3 del recipiente 2 alrededor de la parte que puede perforarse 4 para definir un estado de sellado normal (figuras 1,4 y 6), en el que al menos el flujo de salida de gas hacia la propia parte que puede perforarse 4 está limitado; la parte de sellado 14 también es móvil, en uso, por la acción de un empuje externo, ejercido en este caso por el dispositivo de usuario 5, en un segundo sentido T a lo largo del eje A, opuesto con respecto al sentido R, para definir un estado de apertura (figura 5), en el que la propia parte de sellado 14 está espaciada axialmente de la pared 3.Advantageously, the movable part 12 comprises a sealing part 14, which is arranged in a position radially innermost with respect to the rim 13 with reference to the axis A and is elastically loaded in a first direction R along the axis A itself so as to work together, in use, against the wall 3 of the container 2 around the part that can pierce 4 to define a normal sealing state (figures 1, 4 and 6), in which at least the outflow of gas towards the pierceable part 4 itself is limited; the sealing part 14 is also mobile, in use, by the action of an external thrust, exerted in this case by the user device 5, in a second direction T along the axis A, opposite with respect to the direction R, to define an open state (figure 5), in which the sealing part 14 itself is axially spaced from the wall 3.
La parte móvil 12 comprende además una pluralidad de elementos en forma de pétalo 15 igualmente espaciados angularmente entre sí alrededor del eje A, que delimitan ventanas pasantes 16 respectivas entre sí y que conectan el reborde 13 a la parte de sellado 14.The movable part 12 further comprises a plurality of petal-shaped elements 15 equally angularly spaced from one another around the axis A, delimiting respective through-windows 16 from one another and connecting the rim 13 to the sealing part 14.
En particular, la parte de sellado 14 comprende una región central sólida 18, en la realización ilustrada que consiste en un disco plano ortogonal con respecto al eje A, y un elemento tubular 19 que sobresale en voladizo desde la periferia de la región central 18 a lo largo del eje A y configurado para funcionar de manera conjunta en contacto, en su parte de extremo libre 20, con la pared 3 del recipiente 2.In particular, the sealing part 14 comprises a solid central region 18, in the illustrated embodiment consisting of a flat disk orthogonal to the axis A, and a tubular element 19 cantilevering from the periphery of the central region 18 to along the axis A and configured to cooperate in contact, at its free end portion 20, with the wall 3 of the container 2.
Debe indicarse que, en la presente descripción y en las reivindicaciones, los términos “anular” y “tubular” se pretende que estén en su sentido más amplio, es decir, que designen elementos o partes sin fin, no necesariamente circulares, sino también ovaladas, poligonales, etc.It should be noted that, in the present description and in the claims, the terms "annular" and "tubular" are intended to be in their broadest sense, that is, to designate endless elements or parts, not necessarily circular, but also oval. , polygonal, etc.
Como puede verse en particular en las figuras 4 a 6, cada elemento en forma de pétalo 15 y la parte del reborde 13 sobre la que se apoya este elemento en forma de pétalo 15, tienen, en su conjunto, una configuración sustancialmente en forma de S en una sección transversal tomada a lo largo de un plano que pasa a través del eje (A).As can be seen in particular in FIGS. 4 to 6, each petal-shaped element 15 and the part of the rim 13 on which this petal-shaped element 15 rests have, as a whole, a substantially petal-shaped configuration. S in a cross section taken along a plane passing through the axis (A).
En la práctica, cada elemento en forma de pétalo 15 se extiende comenzando desde un área de la parte de sellado 14, que está espaciada de la parte de extremo libre 20 a lo largo del eje A.In practice, each petal-shaped element 15 extends starting from an area of the sealing part 14, which is spaced from the free end part 20 along the axis A.
En detalle, cada elemento en forma de pétalo 15 conecta un borde periférico 21 de la región central 18 con un borde periférico radialmente más interno 22 del reborde 13.In detail, each petal-shaped element 15 connects a peripheral edge 21 of the central region 18 with a radially innermost peripheral edge 22 of the rim 13.
Cada elemento en forma de pétalo 15 comprende además una sección de extremo 23, que sobresale en voladizo desde el lado opuesto de la región central 18 con respecto al elemento tubular 19 y que tiene una configuración curvilínea, y una sección principal sustancialmente rectilínea 24, que tiene una inclinación oblicua con respecto al eje A.Each petal-shaped element 15 further comprises an end section 23, cantilevering from the opposite side of the central region 18 with respect to the tubular element 19 and having a curvilinear configuration, and a substantially rectilinear main section 24, which has an oblique inclination with respect to axis A.
En uso, la botella 1 debe perforarse en la parte que puede perforarse 4 para poder suministrar gas al dispositivo de usuario 5; este dispositivo tiene una boquilla de extremo tubular 8 que penetra dentro del recipiente 2 después de la perforación y tiene una acción de empuje a lo largo del eje A en el sentido T sobre la región central 18 de la válvula 10. De esta manera, la parte móvil 12 se traslada a lo largo del eje A hacia el interior del recipiente 2 en el sentido T provocando la separación de la parte de extremo libre 20 del elemento tubular 19 con respecto a la pared 3; al mismo tiempo, los elementos en forma de pétalo 15 tienden a abrirse uno con respecto al otro ensanchando las ventanas 16. El gas dentro del recipiente 2 puede fluir entonces hacia la boquilla tubular 8 del dispositivo de usuario 5 pasando primero a través de las ventanas 16 y luego hacia el espacio entre la parte de extremo libre 20 del elemento tubular 19 y la pared 3.In use, the bottle 1 must be pierced at the pierceable part 4 in order to supply gas to the user device 5; this device has a tubular end nozzle 8 that penetrates inside the container 2 after perforation and has a pushing action along the axis A in the direction T on the central region 18 of the valve 10. In this way, the moving part 12 translates along the axis A towards the inside of the container 2 in the direction T causing the separation of the free end part 20 of the tubular element 19 with respect to the wall 3; at the same time, the petal-shaped elements 15 tend to open with respect to each other by widening the windows 16. The gas inside the container 2 can then flow towards the tubular nozzle 8 of the user device 5 by first passing through the windows 16 and then towards the space between the free end part 20 of the tubular element 19 and the wall 3.
En el caso en el que el recipiente 2, ya perforado, pero aún al menos parcialmente lleno de gas, se separa del dispositivo de usuario 5, la válvula 10 permite al menos limitar el flujo de salida de gas desde la botella 1.In the case where the container 2, already perforated, but still at least partially filled with gas, is separated from the user device 5, the valve 10 makes it possible to at least limit the outflow of gas from the bottle 1.
De hecho, en este caso, la parte móvil 12, ya no se mantiene en el estado de apertura por la boquilla tubular 8, vuelve hacia la pared 3 a lo largo del sentido R por el efecto de su elasticidad y bajo el empuje de la presión residual del gas dentro del recipiente 2, mayor con respecto a la presión atmosférica.In fact, in this case, the mobile part 12, no longer held in the open state by the tubular nozzle 8, returns towards the wall 3 along the direction R due to the effect of its elasticity and under the thrust of the residual pressure of the gas inside the container 2, greater with respect to atmospheric pressure.
A partir de un examen de las características de la válvula 10 y de la botella 1, fabricadas según la presente invención, las ventajas que pueden obtenerse con las mismas son evidentes.From an examination of the characteristics of the valve 10 and the bottle 1, manufactured according to the present invention, the advantages that can be obtained therewith are evident.
En particular, la fijación de la válvula 10 a la pared superior 3 del recipiente 2 de la botella 1 puede tener lugar mediante la simple aplicación de trazas de sustancia adhesiva sobre el reborde 13, sin la necesidad de que se inserten dispositivos adicionales dentro del propio recipiente 2. Además, como la función de sellado de gas se implementa por el elemento tubular 19, dispuesto en una posición radialmente más interior con respecto al reborde 13 con respecto al eje A, no es necesario aplicar un anillo sin fin de sustancia adhesiva sobre el propio reborde 13.In particular, the fixing of the valve 10 to the upper wall 3 of the container 2 of the bottle 1 can take place by simply applying traces of adhesive substance on the rim 13, without the need for additional devices to be inserted inside the rim itself. container 2. In addition, since the gas sealing function is implemented by the tubular element 19, arranged in a radially innermost position with respect to the rim 13 with respect to the axis A, it is not necessary to apply an endless ring of adhesive substance on the rim itself 13.
Finalmente, debido a la estructura de la válvula 10, el paso del estado de apertura al estado de sellado normal requiere un pequeño movimiento de la parte móvil 12, y en particular del elemento tubular 19, a lo largo del eje A; ya que este pequeño movimiento puede garantizarse únicamente por la elasticidad intrínseca del material que forma la parte móvil 12, la presencia de una presión residual dentro del recipiente 2, mayor que la presión atmosférica, tiene el único efecto de aumentar adicionalmente la efectividad del sello.Finally, due to the structure of the valve 10, the passage from the open state to the normal sealed state requires a small movement of the mobile part 12, and in particular of the tubular element 19, along the axis A; since this small movement can only be guaranteed by the intrinsic elasticity of the material that forms the mobile part 12, the presence of a residual pressure inside the container 2, greater than atmospheric pressure, has the only effect to further increase the effectiveness of the seal.
Por lo tanto, en el caso de separación de la botella 1 del dispositivo de usuario 5 cuando todavía está llena, la válvula 10, es capaz de controlar de manera efectiva y fiable el flujo de salida del gas residual desde el recipiente 2.Therefore, in the case of separation of the bottle 1 from the user device 5 when it is still full, the valve 10 is capable of effectively and reliably controlling the outflow of residual gas from the container 2.
Está claro que pueden hacerse modificaciones y variantes a la válvula 10 y a la botella 1 descritas e ilustradas en el presente documento sin apartarse del alcance definido por las reivindicaciones. It is clear that modifications and variants can be made to the valve 10 and the bottle 1 described and illustrated herein without departing from the scope defined by the claims.
