Description

本発明は、内容物およびその噴射用ガスを収容した容器本体に対するステムの移動長に応じて、ステム短移動のエアゾール動作と、ガス圧力低下状態での上流弁および下流弁に基づくステム長移動のポンプ動作とを個々に実行可能な内容物放出機構に関する。   The present invention provides an aerosol operation of short stem movement and a stem length movement based on an upstream valve and a downstream valve in a gas pressure reduced state, in accordance with a movement length of a stem with respect to a container body containing contents and a jetting gas thereof. And a pumping operation.

特に、容器本体の内部で内容物の通過用・貯留用空間域を構成するハウジングに、静止モード位置(エアゾール作動モード位置)とポンプ作動モードの各位置との間を移動する移動体を設け、この移動体にステムを相対移動可能な形で収容保持したものである。   In particular, a moving body that moves between a stationary mode position (aerosol operation mode position) and each position of the pump operation mode is provided in a housing that constitutes a space area for passing and storing contents inside the container body, A stem is accommodated and held in this movable body in a form capable of relative movement.

ステムは強弾性力により、また移動体は弱弾性力によりそれぞれ静止モード位置の方に付勢されている。   The stem is biased toward the stationary mode position by the strong elastic force, and the moving body is biased toward the stationary mode position by the weak elastic force.

移動体は、ハウジング内圧が大きい通常のエアゾール作動モードではこの内圧により静止モード位置に付勢され、ハウジング内圧が低下すると弱弾性力で保持される。なお、エアゾール作動モードにおけるハウジング内圧は容器本体内圧ともいえる。   The moving body is urged to the stationary mode position by the internal pressure in the normal aerosol operation mode in which the housing internal pressure is large, and is held by a weak elastic force when the housing internal pressure decreases. The internal pressure of the housing in the aerosol operation mode can be said to be the internal pressure of the container.

すなわち、ステムの下流弁とハウジングの上流弁との間の空間域が、移動体の、弱弾性力に抗する形での移動にともなうポンプ作動対象域となり、そこでの内圧が大きくなって上流弁を閉じ、開状態の下流弁からこの空間域の内容物が外部空間域に放出される。   That is, the space region between the downstream valve of the stem and the upstream valve of the housing becomes a pump operation target region accompanying the movement of the moving body against the weak elastic force. Is closed, and the contents of this space area are discharged from the downstream valve in the open state to the external space area.

ミスユースなどに起因するこのようなハウジング内圧の低下時に、それまでのエアゾール動作からポンプ動作へとシフトすることより、容器本体の収容内容物は外部空間域に略全量放出される。   When the internal pressure of the housing is reduced due to misuse or the like, a shift is made from the aerosol operation to the pump operation, so that substantially all of the contents contained in the container body are discharged to the external space.

なお、ミスユースとは例えば、容器本体を上下逆さの状態でエアゾール動作をした場合のように、後述のディップチューブ9の吸い込み側端部が吸い込み対象の収容内容物から外れた状態でエアゾール作動をすることにより、気相成分の噴射剤のみが外部空間に放出され容器本体の内圧の低下を招き、残りの収容内容物の放出を困難にしてしまう使用方法である。   Note that misuse is, for example, an aerosol operation in which the suction side end of a dip tube 9 described below is separated from the contents to be sucked, such as when the aerosol operation is performed with the container body upside down. This is a usage method in which only the propellant of the gas phase component is released into the external space, causing a decrease in the internal pressure of the container body and making it difficult to release the remaining contents.

特に、噴射剤として圧縮ガスを使用した製品では、気化して放出圧力となる噴射剤が液相の収容内容物に混和していないため、気相成分の噴射剤が減少した場合に、噴射する圧力を補うものがなくその低下が著しい。そのため残りの収容内容物が放出不可能となったり、また放出可能であっても噴射勢いの低下による液垂れや噴霧粒子が粗くなるなどの問題が発生しやすい。   In particular, in the case of products using compressed gas as a propellant, the propellant which evaporates to a release pressure is not mixed with the liquid phase contents, so that when the propellant of the gas phase component decreases, the fuel is injected. There is nothing to compensate for the pressure and the drop is remarkable. For this reason, the remaining stored contents cannot be discharged, and even if discharge is possible, problems such as dripping due to a decrease in jetting force and coarsening of spray particles are likely to occur.

従来、放出操作部,ステムの移動態様にともない、噴射用ガスに基づく短移動のエアゾール動作と、噴射用ガスの圧力低下後の上流弁および下流弁に基づく長移動のポンプ動作とが個々に実行可能な内容物放出機構は、すでに提案されている(特許文献1参照)。   Conventionally, a short-moving aerosol operation based on an injection gas and a long-moving pump operation based on an upstream valve and a downstream valve after the pressure of the injection gas are individually executed according to the movement of the discharge operation unit and the stem. A possible content release mechanism has already been proposed (see US Pat.

特開平2014−91527号公報JP-A-2014-91527

この内容物放出機構のポンプ作動対象となるハウジング内空間域は、ステム側の下流弁とハウジング内の上流弁との間であり、その容積なども下流弁形状,サイズなどに制約されてしまうという問題点があった。   The space inside the housing to be pumped by the contents discharge mechanism is between the downstream valve on the stem side and the upstream valve in the housing, and its volume is limited by the shape and size of the downstream valve. There was a problem.

本発明では、このポンプ作動対象のハウジング内空間域を設定する構成要素として、静止モード位置とポンプ作動モード位置との間を移動可能でステムおよびステム側の下流弁が収容保持される移動体を、ハウジング内側に設けている。   In the present invention, as a component for setting the internal space area of the housing to be operated by the pump, a moving body movable between the stationary mode position and the pump operation mode position and housing and holding the stem and the stem-side downstream valve is used. , Provided inside the housing.

この移動体の配設により、ポンプ作動対象となるハウジング内空間域をステム側の下流弁とはいわば独立した形の任意態様で設定し、噴射用ガスの圧力低下後の上流弁および下流弁に基づくステム長移動のポンプ動作の多様化,確実化を図ることを目的とする。   By disposing this moving body, the space inside the housing to be operated with the pump is set in an arbitrary manner independent of the downstream valve on the stem side, so that the upstream valve and the downstream valve after the pressure of the injection gas decreases. The purpose is to diversify and assure the pump operation of stem length movement based on.

また、噴射用ガスに基づくステム短移動のエアゾール動作、および噴射用ガスの圧力低下後の上流弁,下流弁に基づくステム長移動のポンプ動作が個々に実行可能な内容物放出機構としての、一層の利便化を図ることを目的とする。   Further, the aerosol operation of the stem short movement based on the injection gas and the pump operation of the stem length movement based on the upstream valve and the downstream valve after the pressure of the injection gas is reduced can be individually executed as a content discharging mechanism. The purpose is to increase the convenience of.

以上の各構成要素の中、ステム2,ステム収容可動部3,シール作用部4,ハウジング6およびディップチューブ9はプラスチック製のもので、例えばポリプロピレン,ポリエチレン,ポリアセタール,ナイロン,ポリブチレンテレフタレートなどからなる   Among the above components, the stem 2, the stem accommodating portion 3, the sealing portion 4, the housing 6, and the dip tube 9 are made of plastic, and are made of, for example, polypropylene, polyethylene, polyacetal, nylon, polybutylene terephthalate, or the like.

容器本体1,下流側コイルスプリング5d,上流側コイルスプリング6e,環状カップ7およびボール弁8はプラスチック製または金属製のものである。   The container body 1, the downstream coil spring 5d, the upstream coil spring 6e, the annular cup 7, and the ball valve 8 are made of plastic or metal.

また、ステムラバー5aはゴム製のもの、環状パッキン7dはゴム製またはプラスチック製のものである。ここでゴム製のステムラバー5aに代えてプラスチック製のステムシール部材を用いてもよい。   The stem rubber 5a is made of rubber, and the annular packing 7d is made of rubber or plastic. Here, a plastic stem seal member may be used instead of the rubber stem rubber 5a.

なお、下流側コイルスプリング5dおよび上流側コイルスプリング6eそれぞれの上方向への弾性力は、上流側コイルスプリング6eの方が小さく設定されている。   The upward elastic force of each of the downstream coil spring 5d and the upstream coil spring 6e is set smaller in the upstream coil spring 6e.

図1の内容物放出機構で噴射剤「なし」のいわば仮想設定の下、ステム2を下動させると、少なくともその初期段階では小弾性力の上流側コイルスプリング6eのみが縮み、ステム2および移動体5は全体として静止モードの位置関係のまま下動する。   When the stem 2 is moved downward under the so-called virtual setting of the propellant “none” in the content discharging mechanism of FIG. 1, only the upstream coil spring 6 e having a small elastic force is contracted at least in the initial stage, and the stem 2 and the movement are reduced. The body 5 moves downward in the stationary mode as a whole.

そして、この下動にともない、移動体5とハウジング6との間の上流側空間域S1の容積が減少してそこでの内圧が増加する。   Then, with this downward movement, the volume of the upstream space area S1 between the moving body 5 and the housing 6 decreases, and the internal pressure there increases.

この内圧増加にともない移動体5が上流側コイルスプリング6eからとは別の上方向への力を受け、これにより移動体5は下動せずにステム2のみが下動して、その下流側孔部2bがステムラバー5aとの閉状態から開状態へと解放される。   As the internal pressure increases, the moving body 5 receives an upward force different from that of the upstream coil spring 6e, whereby the moving body 5 does not move down, but only the stem 2 moves down, and the moving body 5 moves downstream. The hole 2b is released from the closed state with the stem rubber 5a to the open state.

この下流側孔部2bの開状態への移行にともなって図3のポンプ作動モードの放出経路f2が設定される。   With the transition of the downstream hole 2b to the open state, the discharge path f2 in the pump operation mode in FIG. 3 is set.

ここでのステム2,移動体5,下流側コイルスプリング5d,上流側コイルスプリング6eおよび上流側空間域S1などの関連動作説明が、図示内容物放出機構のポンプ作動モードの原理的な基本構成といえる。   The description of the related operations of the stem 2, the moving body 5, the downstream side coil spring 5d, the upstream side coil spring 6e, the upstream side space S1 and the like is based on the basic basic configuration of the pump operation mode of the illustrated content discharging mechanism. I can say.

なお、噴射用ガス圧力が十分に大きなエアゾール作動モードの場合は概略、移動体5は、上流側空間域S1の大きな内圧(噴射用ガス圧力)による図示上方向の力を受けて静止モード位置に保持される。   In the case of the aerosol operation mode in which the injection gas pressure is sufficiently large, the moving body 5 receives the upward force in the figure due to the large internal pressure (injection gas pressure) in the upstream space S1 and moves to the stationary mode position. Will be retained.

すなわち、移動体5は図1の静止モード位置に保持されたままであり、その構成要素であるステム収容可動部3に対してステム2が下動するといった周知のエアゾール作動状態に設定される。   That is, the moving body 5 is maintained in the stationary mode position in FIG. 1 and is set to a well-known aerosol operating state in which the stem 2 moves down with respect to the stem accommodating movable section 3 which is a component thereof.

図1の静止モードでは、
(11)上流側コイルスプリング6eの弾性作用および上流側空間域S1の内圧作用により、移動体5が、最上動位置にてその上向き環状段部4dと環状カップ7の環状底面7bとの当接保持状態に設定され、
(12)下流側コイルスプリング5dの弾性作用および下流側空間域S2の内圧作用により、ステム2が、最上動位置にてその下流側孔部2bとステムラバー5aとの当接閉状態に設定され、
(13)ボール弁8が、その自重などによりハウジング6の内向き環状テーパ部6dに密接している。
In the stationary mode of FIG.
(11) Due to the elastic action of the upstream coil spring 6e and the internal pressure action of the upstream space area S1, the moving body 5 comes into contact with the upward annular step 4d and the annular bottom face 7b of the annular cup 7 at the uppermost position. Set to the hold state,
(12) By the elastic action of the downstream coil spring 5d and the internal pressure action of the downstream space area S2, the stem 2 is set in the contact position between the downstream hole 2b and the stem rubber 5a at the uppermost position. ,
(13) The ball valve 8 is in close contact with the inward annular tapered portion 6d of the housing 6 due to its own weight or the like.

図2の、ステム2が、内容物放出操作に応じて下流側コイルスプリング5dの弾性力に抗しながら下動したエアゾール作動モードでは、上述のように、
(21)上方への、上流側コイルスプリング6eの弾性作用および上流側空間域S1の内圧作用を受ける移動体5は、静止モード位置のままに保持され、
(22)外部空間域にいたるステム2の内部通路域2aと、ステム収容可動部3の下流側空間域S2とが開状態の下流側孔部2bを介して連通し、
(23)この外部空間域と下流側空間域S2の連通作用にともない、ボール弁8はディップチューブ9の通路域側からトータル上方向への内圧を受けて上動し、
(24)このボール弁8の上動によりエアゾール作動モードの放出経路f1が確立する。
In the aerosol operation mode in FIG. 2 in which the stem 2 moves down while resisting the elastic force of the downstream coil spring 5d in response to the contents discharging operation, as described above,
(21) The moving body 5 which is subjected to the elastic action of the upstream coil spring 6e and the internal pressure action of the upstream space area S1 upward is held in the stationary mode position,
(22) The internal passage area 2a of the stem 2 leading to the external space area and the downstream space area S2 of the stem accommodating movable section 3 communicate with each other through the open downstream hole section 2b,
(23) With the communication between the outer space area and the downstream space area S2, the ball valve 8 receives the internal pressure from the passage area side of the dip tube 9 and moves upward due to the total internal pressure.
(24) The upward movement of the ball valve 8 establishes the release path f1 in the aerosol operation mode.

放出経路f1は、「ディップチューブ9−内向き環状テーパ部6dで設定される中央開口域−隣同士のL字リブ状部6cの間に設定される溝状部−上流側空間域S1−上流側孔部3c−下流側空間域S2−下流側孔部2b−ステム2の内部通路域2a」となる。   The discharge path f1 is defined as “a dip tube 9-a central opening area set by an inwardly-facing annular tapered part 6d-a groove-shaped part set between adjacent L-shaped rib-shaped parts 6c-an upstream space area S1-upstream” The side hole 3c-the downstream space S2-the downstream hole 2b-the internal passage area 2a of the stem 2 ".

エアゾール作動モードで移動体5が下方にシフトしないのは、上流側空間域S1の十分に大きい内圧作用によってこの移動体を押し上げているからである。   The moving body 5 does not shift downward in the aerosol operation mode because the moving body 5 is pushed up by a sufficiently large internal pressure action in the upstream space S1.

図示の内容物放出機構の検証によれば、移動体5を静止モード位置に保持したままの図2のエアゾール作動モードが設定されえるのは、上流側空間域S1での内圧が1kgf/cm2〜8kgf/cm2のときであった。 According to the verification of the illustrated content discharging mechanism, the aerosol operation mode of FIG. 2 in which the moving body 5 is held at the stationary mode position can be set because the internal pressure in the upstream space S1 is 1 kgf / cm 2. 88 kgf / cm 2 .

検証状態では、上流側空間域S1の直径を15mmとして、1kgf/cm2の内圧で1.76kgf相当の上方への力が移動体5にかかることになる。ここで、下流側コイルスプリング5dには弾性力が0.7kgfのものを用い、上流側コイルスプリング6eには弾性力が0.4kgfのものを用いた。上流側空間域S1の内圧が1kgf/cm2の場合の移動体5が受ける上方への付勢力は2.18kgf(=1.76kgf+0.4kgf)となり、エアゾール作動モードでのステム2の最大押し下げ力である約2kgfを若干上回る。 In the verification state, assuming that the diameter of the upstream space area S1 is 15 mm, an upward force equivalent to 1.76 kgf is applied to the moving body 5 at an internal pressure of 1 kgf / cm 2 . Here, the downstream coil spring 5d used had an elastic force of 0.7 kgf, and the upstream coil spring 6e used had an elastic force of 0.4 kgf. When the internal pressure of the upstream side space S1 is 1 kgf / cm 2 , the upward biasing force received by the moving body 5 is 2.18 kgf (= 1.76 kgf + 0.4 kgf), which is the maximum pushing force of the stem 2 in the aerosol operation mode. It slightly exceeds a certain approx. 2kgf.

ここで、放出機構のミスユースや内容物放出動作の累積などにより容器本体1(上流側空間域S1)の内圧が1kgf/cm2以下になると、この内圧の移動体押上げ力も十分に減少し、エアゾール作動モードのステム2についてのさらなる下動操作が可能となる。 Here, when the internal pressure of the container body 1 (upstream space area S1) becomes 1 kgf / cm 2 or less due to misuse of the discharging mechanism or accumulation of the contents discharging operation, the moving body pushing force of the internal pressure is sufficiently reduced. Further downward movement of the stem 2 in the aerosol operation mode becomes possible.

すなわち、周知の内容物放出操作部材(図示省略)の、図2のエアゾール作動モードの設定位置から図3のポンプ作動モードの設定位置までのストロークが可能となる。   That is, the stroke of the well-known contents discharge operation member (not shown) from the set position of the aerosol operation mode in FIG. 2 to the set position of the pump operation mode in FIG. 3 is possible.

図3の、このストロークに基づくポンプ作動モードの内容物放出機構は、下流側孔部2bおよびステムラバー5aの下流弁(吐出弁)、ならびに内向き環状テーパ部6dおよびボール弁8の上流弁(吸込弁)を備えたポンプ機構と同様に作動する。   The contents discharge mechanism in the pump operation mode based on this stroke in FIG. 3 includes a downstream valve (discharge valve) of the downstream side hole 2b and the stem rubber 5a, and an upstream valve (the upstream valve of the inward annular tapered portion 6d and the ball valve 8). It operates similarly to a pump mechanism with a suction valve).

すなわち、
(31)弱弾性力の上流側コイルスプリング6eに保持された移動体5は、その押上げ力のいわば源泉である容器本体1(上流側空間域S1)の内圧が減少した状態において、ステム2とリンクする形で下動し、
(32)この下動により上流側空間域S1の容積が減少してそこでの内圧が増加し、
(33)この内圧増加にともない、ボール弁8が押し下げられて上流弁「閉」に設定され、かつ移動体5の下動にいわばブレーキがかかってステム2のみが下動し、
(34)このステム2のみの下動により確実に下流弁「開」となり、
(35)内圧増加の上流側空間域S1および下流側空間域S2の内容物が下流弁を経てステム2の内部通路域2aから外部空間域に放出される。
That is,
(31) When the internal pressure of the container body 1 (upstream space S1), which is the source of the push-up force, is reduced, the moving body 5 held by the upstream coil spring 6e having the weak elastic force has the stem 2 Moves down in a way that links with
(32) Due to this downward movement, the volume of the upstream space area S1 decreases and the internal pressure there increases,
(33) With the increase in the internal pressure, the ball valve 8 is pushed down to set the upstream valve to "closed", and the downward movement of the moving body 5 is braked, so that only the stem 2 moves downward.
(34) The downward movement of only the stem 2 ensures that the downstream valve is opened,
(35) The contents of the upstream space area S1 and the downstream space area S2 of increasing internal pressure are discharged from the internal passage area 2a of the stem 2 to the external space area via the downstream valve.

このときの放出経路f2は、「上流側空間域S1−上流側孔部3c−下流側空間域S2−下流側孔部2b−ステム2の内部通路域2a」となる。   The discharge path f2 at this time is "upstream space S1-upstream hole 3c-downstream space S2-downstream hole 2b-internal passage area 2a of stem 2".

押下げボタン(図示省略)の押圧操作などの内容物放出操作を終えると、図2のエアゾール作動モードおよび図3のポンプ作動モードの内容物放出機構は、下流側コイルスプリング5dや上流側コイルスプリング6eの弾性力により、図1の静止モードに復帰する。   When the contents discharging operation such as the pressing operation of the push-down button (not shown) is completed, the contents discharging mechanism of the aerosol operation mode of FIG. 2 and the pump operation mode of FIG. The mode returns to the stationary mode in FIG. 1 by the elastic force of 6e.

図2のエアゾール作動モードの設定操作を終えると、ステム2が下流側コイルスプリング5dの弾性作用でその初期位置に復帰する。   When the setting operation of the aerosol operation mode in FIG. 2 is completed, the stem 2 returns to its initial position by the elastic action of the downstream coil spring 5d.

図3のポンプ作動モードの設定操作を終えると、ステム2が下流側コイルスプリング5dの弾性作用でその初期位置に復帰し、かつ、移動体5が上流側コイルスプリング6eの弾性作用でその初期位置に復帰する。   When the operation of setting the pump operation mode in FIG. 3 is completed, the stem 2 returns to its initial position by the elastic action of the downstream coil spring 5d, and the moving body 5 moves to its initial position by the elastic action of the upstream coil spring 6e. Return to.

このポンプ作動設定操作の解除にともないステム2および移動体5が上動してその初期位置(静止モード)に復帰するとき、
(41)上流側空間域S1および下流側空間域S2それぞれの容積が増加して、そこでの内圧が容器本体1の内部空間域のそれよりも減少し、
(42)この内圧減少にともない、ボール弁8が内向き環状テーパ部6dから離間して上流弁(吸込弁)開状態に設定され、
(43)容器本体1の内容物がディップチューブ9を介して上流側空間域S1および下流側空間域S2の方へ流入し、
(44)この内容物流入にともない上流側空間域S1および下流側空間域S2の内圧が増加して、概略、ボール弁8に作用する下方向のハウジング内圧および自重の合計が、同じくボール弁8に作用する上方向の容器本体内圧よりも大きくなった段階で上流弁が閉じ、
(45)この上流弁の閉作用で内容物放出機構は図1の静止モードに移行する。
When the stem 2 and the moving body 5 move upward to return to the initial position (stationary mode) with the release of the pump operation setting operation,
(41) The volume of each of the upstream space area S1 and the downstream space area S2 increases, and the internal pressure there decreases from that of the internal space area of the container body 1,
(42) With the decrease of the internal pressure, the ball valve 8 is separated from the inward annular tapered portion 6d and set to the upstream valve (suction valve) open state,
(43) The contents of the container body 1 flow into the upstream space area S1 and the downstream space area S2 via the dip tube 9,
(44) With the inflow of the contents, the internal pressures of the upstream space area S1 and the downstream space area S2 increase, and the total of the lower housing internal pressure and the dead weight acting on the ball valve 8 is substantially equal to the ball valve 8 The upstream valve closes when the pressure becomes larger than the internal pressure of the container body in the upward direction acting on
(45) By the closing action of the upstream valve, the contents discharge mechanism shifts to the stationary mode of FIG.

なお、上記(43)で上流側空間域S1および下流側空間域S2に流入した内容物が次回のポンプ作動における放出対象物となる。   Note that the contents that have flowed into the upstream space area S1 and the downstream space area S2 in (43) above are the discharge objects in the next pump operation.

図3のポンプ作動モードにおいて、容器本体1の収容内容物が外部空間域に放出されることにともなう容器本体内部空間域の減圧状態は、外気流入用孔部6fから容器本体1への外気供給により回復する。   In the pump operation mode of FIG. 3, the depressurized state of the container main body internal space area due to the discharge of the contents stored in the container main body 1 to the external space area is the supply of the external air to the container main body 1 from the external air inflow hole 6f. To recover.

図示の内容物放出機構は、内容物放出操作にともなうステム移動長さの違いにより、噴射用ガスに基づく短移動のエアゾール動作と、噴射用ガス圧力の低下後の上流弁(ボール弁)および下流弁に基づく長移動のポンプ動作と、を個々に実行しえるものである。   The illustrated content discharging mechanism includes a short-moving aerosol operation based on the injection gas and an upstream valve (ball valve) and a downstream valve after the pressure of the injection gas is reduced due to a difference in stem movement length accompanying the content discharging operation. And long-running pump operation based on a valve.
