Abstract

The holder for an air freshener spray (6), for use in toilets, comprises an L-shaped frame (2) which is fixed to the wall, on which the spray stands. A tubular cover (3) slides down in grooves in the stand so that it covers the spray but allows the spray valve (7) to protrude.

Description

from the bottle where it was nix.

  - 1 The present invention relates to a device in the form of a housing, comprising a support frame and a decorative covering casing which can be condemned and comprising a reversible spraying action control. This set is intended to be fixed on a wall to support and receive a commercial perfumed aerosol bottle, making it possible to effectively deodorize toilet premises by manual mechanical spraying

of the product.

  Usually, the deodorization of toilet premises can be done using bottles of the commercial aerosol type: - by simple handling using the hand, the bottle being placed in a disorderly manner, in the premises of individual toilets by successive users (on the toilet tank, on the ground, on a shelf, or other locations). In sanitary areas for the general public or private (offices, hotels, restaurants, ...), these bottles hardly exist because of the possibility of

1 5 vol.

  - by the adaptation of devices with a cord acting mechanically on the spray head or electrically with a motor (patented processes (FR 2 563 503 A1 or others) but not encountered in the premises mentioned above and in particular in the washrooms public). These devices have a complex and fragile use to

  wear, moreover, they are not decorative in the room and can be stolen.

  Other fixed means of deodorization are also used: - for public places: The systems encountered are devices by spraying an aerosol liquid of suitable brands, assisted by the timed electric action (timer or contact on the door) or mechanically assisted. These processes are expensive because of the installation and the obligation to purchase consumables from the

same brand.

  - for public and private places: Simple and common means by means of cartridges with dilution in the water of the basins, of solid blocks acting by evaporation in

  perforated boxes or diffusing bottles of liquid, fixed or placed in the room.

  These processes perfume the atmosphere in a constant and weak way, but do not act on the punctual odors following the various uses and moreover, they are of a hardness

limited life.

  The subject of the invention is the creation of an assembly forming a housing in two main elements, one (the support frame) being fixed on the wall and the other (the casing) assembling by sliding system on the first . The assembly having to receive a commercial aerosol bottle, making it possible to efficiently deodorize toilet premises by mechanical vaporization of the product, by means of a manual control, in the form of a reversible lever fixed on an axis , by acting on the universal valve of

  suitable spray on the bottle.

  The graphic representations by cuts on the device specify the forms, the method of assembling the elements, the details in the lower part on the base with its closure

  safety, and in the upper part on the spray control.

  The device which is the subject of the invention has the composition elements (of different materials) and the following characteristics: a support constituted by an L-shaped frame (2), fixed to the wall (1) of the toilets, comprising in the lower part, a thick base with a reservation allowing the incorporation and the midplacement in its thickness, of a locking system (5). The assembly ensuring a good horizontal seat of the bottle (6) with a circular imprint (9) in relief in order to properly position it when it is put in place. This frame will laterally include two grooves forming slides in order to receive the sliding covering (3), with interruption of the grooves in the lower part of the frame to form a

  blocking. This frame can be produced either by machining or by injection into a mold.

  - the front paneling by a casing (3) sliding from top to bottom (for installation) on the frame (2), with various decorative finishes on the front panel. This housing will include:

  reservations in the upper part allowing the passage of the elements provided below.

  15. a low gutter forming a groove allowing the locking of the bolt of the system

conviction (5) provided below.

  This casing can be produced either by machining (folding, stamping, ...) or by

injection into a mold.

  - a locking system (5) controlled by a small key lock which will ensure the safety closure of the entire device (enclosing the bottle, after its

  installation on the support frame (2)).

  Note: The security closure with the aim of preserving the bottle against theft in public premises. This conviction may be removed in the case of use

personal privacy.

  - the spraying action will be made using the rigid and thick operating lever (4), of special shape according to the detail of the cuts. The lever will be reversible by turning and assembled in the upper part on two axis systems forming hinges (8), fixed on either side of the inner side walls of the casing (3), permitting the permutation and rotation on the axis. lever (4). Manual action by vertical downward pressure will be done on the part of the lever exiting outside the casing, by the share reservations and

else in it (3).

  - the lever return action, after spraying, will be done by the pressurized return of the

  special valve (7) adapted from the bottle.

  - the special spray valve (7) supplied with the device, will be fitted onto the nozzle tip (10) of the commercial acrosol bottle (6). The valve will be adapted with a low flange receiving the support of the lever (4) for the operation. In the lower part of the valve (7), there will be an adaptable fitting (flexible conical and compressible ring (11)) on the nozzle nozzle of the bottle (10), in order to use all the models of cylindrical capacities on the market. (because current or professional commercial bottles have nozzle nozzles with diameters

different depending on the brand).

  The jet on the valve (7) will be oblique in order to better treat the volume of the room to be deodorized, from the fixed position on the wall. In addition, this jet will be adjustable

  by rotation of the valve on its axis relative to the horizontal plane.

  Note: Thanks to the valve flange (7) and the adapted lever (4), the valve cannot be

  removed without opening the casing (3).

  By way of non-limiting information, the device will only have dimensions that are variable in height, depending on the type of standard bottles to be received: - bottles for personal use (300 mL) professional bottles (small 500 mL model, the large 750 mL model being provisionally excluded in this principle because it offers too large and unsightly volume) The dimensions of the device may be adapted according to the marketing in certain countries. The adaptations of the dimensions will be easy to carry out because the bottles generally have standardized diameters, the difference in capacity being

  obtained by a variable height (with the exception of the large professional model).

  The inventi on offers the possibility of overcoming the various disadvantages of the devices and

  deodorization accessories listed before the description and presents the advantages

following:

  - possibility of fixing the device in the desired location.

  - fast fixing of the frame on the wall, either by adhesives (for example on earthenware

  existing) or so it by mechanical fixing (pegging age - for the lieux pub il cs or other s).

  - speed of installation of the bottle (thanks to the sliding casing and the imprint on the support). - coul i ssant casing, fully encompassing the dispositi f and providing a decor age habi ll

with finish of your choice.

  - locking the device with a small key lock (in particular for places of

General public).

  - quick and easy changeover of the reversible spray lever (right or left),

  depending on the positioning of the device in relation to the sanitary appliance.

  - various dimensions in height of the device for adaptation according to the volumes

  models of standard commercial bottles.

  - economical design and manufacture taking into account the service rendered and the aesthetic quality (decorative integration of the device with other objects of use in the sanitary). - possibility of buying bottles of different commercial brands (of identical diameter).

  - adaptation of the universal spray valve (supplied with the device).

  - economic cost of consumables (no obligation to buy a single brand).
