Abstract
Manual device designed to facilitate the emptying of tubes storing pasty products, comprised of a pair of flat, substantially elongated arms, articulately joined together at one of their ends by way of a means of coupling comprised of a pair of tabs, folded orthogonally and provided with respective orifices, axially aligned, at the end of the first arm, and a pair of extensions, folded orthogonally and provided with respective protuberances, at the end of the second arm, determining a space between said coupled arms through which an empty, flattened portion of the tube may be inserted and slid. Furthermore, said arms are provided with inflexions whose fold lines are parallel with and close to the axis whereon the respective arms swing, and are designed to pinch the tube together and to prevent the passage towards the closed end of the tube of the product stored in the same.
Description
- The invention relates to a manual device designed to facilitate the emptying of tubes storing pasty products, such as toothpaste, cosmetics, adhesive, paint pastes, or sealants and/or silicones.
- Currently, the majority of pasty products, such as toothpaste, cosmetics, adhesive, paint pastes or sealants and/or silicones are stored in flexible, tubular containers. These tubular containers require manipulation to empty the same, which consists of exerting pressure with the fingers from the rear end of the tube, towards its front end, in order to push the paste stored and to cause its egress through a nozzle provided for that purpose at the said front end of the tube.
- When the user exerts pressure on the tube with the thumbs of his/her hand, the pressure transmitted to the paste is irregular; as a result of this, part of the pasty product accumulates inside the tube at its rear part, in spite of the fact that the product stored is expelled through the nozzle of the tube. As a result, it is difficult to extract all the paste content from the tube without repeating the emptying manoeuvre several times.
- On the other hand, nowadays the majority of these tubes are manufactured from polymeric materials, one of whose properties is their elasticity; therefore, although the tube may be easily deformable in order to extract the paste through the nozzle of the tube, said tube recovers its original position due to its elastic behaviour, and whenever it is desired to extract paste, the same operation must be performed again, repeatedly and with greater intensity, in order to extract the paste once more.
- With the object of trying to resolve some of the difficulties of this manual operation and of alleviating the task of emptying, in the State of the Art there exist a number of manual devices for facilitating the emptying of pasty material from the tube storing the same. Among these devices may be found the device disclosed in patent document DE3627701, which discloses a pincer which consists of two plastic pressure keys configured symmetrically one in relation to the other, and a metal bar or pin to which both keys are rotably joined. This device requires a laborious manufacturing process as it is composed of three component parts, and besides, it does not guarantee the extraction of the totality of the pasty material stored in the tube.
- Another example of these manual devices is disclosed in patent document ES1057275. In said document, a paste ejection regulating device is disclosed, consisting of two component parts which can be coupled together at one of their ends, allowing one part to swing with regard to the other, forming a type of pincer. Although the manufacture of this latter device is less laborious, it likewise does not guarantee the total emptying of the paste stored in the tube.
- In order to provide a solution to the problems outlined above, a manual device designed to facilitate the emptying of tubes storing pasty products is disclosed.
- In essence, the device is characterised in that it is comprised of a pair of flat, substantially elongated arms, articulately joined together at one of their ends by way of a means of coupling comprised of a pair of tabs, folded orthogonally and provided with respective orifices, axially aligned, at the end of the first arm, and a pair of extensions, folded orthogonally and provided with respective protuberances, at the end of the second arm; the tabs and the extensions being adapted so that the arms are joined by the lodging of the protuberances of one arm in the orifices of the other, determining a space between said coupled arms through which an empty, flattened portion of the tube may be inserted and slid, and in that said arms are provided with inflexions whose fold lines are parallel with and close to the axis whereon the respective arms swing, and they are designed to pinch the tube together and to prevent the passage towards the closed end of the tube of the product stored in the same when the arms are brought together in order to exert pressure on the portion of the tube placed between them and to expel, by means of this pressure, the product stored in the tube through the nozzle of the same.
- The aforementioned manual device is especially designed, as is disclosed in these characteristics, to be manufactured in only two component parts.
- In accordance with another characteristic of the invention, the edges of the free ends of the arms are each provided with cut-outs whose profile is complementary to that of the nozzles of conventional tubes.
- In accordance with another characteristic of the invention, the fold lines of the inflexions determine an appendix on each of the arms of the device, said appendices being divergent from each other when said arms are parallel and whereon the means of coupling is arranged.
- In the attached drawings, a preferred embodiment of the manual device for facilitating the emptying of tubes storing pasty substances which is the object of the invention is shown as a non-limiting example. In said drawings:
-
FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective depiction a manual device according to the invention; -
FIG. 2 is a schematic elevational view of the device inFIG. 1 , in its operating position; -
FIG. 3 is a schematic sectional view of the device inFIG. 1 , wherein details of the means ofcoupling 5 between the arms which comprise said device may be seen; and -
FIG. 4 is a schematic view of the device inFIG. 1 at rest on a shelf. - The
manual device 1 depicted inFIG. 1 is designed to facilitate the emptying of tubes storing toothpaste products. Said device is composed of a pair of elongated,flat arms coupling 5. Saidmanual device 1 is therefore composed of only two component parts which, by way of a stamping and folding process, adopt the final shape ofarms FIGS. 1, 2 , 3 and 4. In this way, the process of producing these is simplified and manufacturing costs are reduced, avoiding operations such as welding or riveting, in comparison with other known devices. - As is depicted in greater detail in
FIG. 3 , exaggeratedly for easier understanding, the means ofcoupling 5 is comprised of a pair oftabs 5 a, folded orthogonally and provided withrespective orifices 5 b, axially aligned, at the end of thefirst arm 3, and a pair ofextensions 5 c, folded orthogonally and provided withrespective protuberances 5 d, at the end of thesecond arm 4, the measurements being such thatarms protuberances 5 d ofarm 4 in theorifices 5 b ofarm 3. - In order to facilitate the rotating movement between
arms tabs 5 a and of theextensions 5 c is rounded, so that said profiles do not interfere with the inner wall of the opposing arms. Specifically, in the example ofFIG. 3 , said characteristic prevents theextensions 5 c from interfering with the rotation of the arms of the device due to their ends abutting againstarm 3. - When both
arms space 6 between them is formed, through which an empty and flattened portion of thetube 2 is inserted and slid, themanual device 1 being configured longitudinally with thetube 2, as depicted inFIG. 2 . - Furthermore,
arms inflexions fold lines respective arms FIG. 1 . Saidfold lines tube 2 together and to prevent the passage towards the closed end oftube 2 of the product stored in the same whenarms tube 2 placed between them and to expel, by means of this pressure, the product stored intube 2 through the nozzle 8 of thetube 2. - In accordance with the depictions in
FIGS. 1 and 2 , the edges of thefree ends 9 ofarms outs outs conventional tubes 2, thus guaranteeing the total emptying of the pasty product from thetube 2, it being possible to exert pressure by means ofarms tube 2 without interfering with the nozzle 8 ofsaid tube 2, which will be partially surrounded by cut-outs arms - Fold
lines arms appendices 10 at the opposite ends to their free ends, which are divergent from each other whenarms appendices 10 are designed to restrict the opening ofarms appendix 10 of one arm againstappendix 10 of the opposite arm. When this happens, thedevice 1 remains open with itsarms device 1, with thetube 2 held betweenarms arms FIG. 4 . In the example of the drawings, the means ofcoupling 5 is arranged on saidappendices 10 ofarms - As may be seen in
FIG. 2 , thelateral edges 11 of therespective arms device 1 in order to move it longitudinally with regard to thepaste tube 2. - It should be mentioned that the
manual device 1 of the invention may be manufactured from two sheets of metallic material such as carbon steel, stainless steel or similar, subjected to a process of stamping, punching and pressing (to provide the sheet withorifices 5 b andprotuberances 5 d) and folding (to provide the sheet withorthogonal tabs 5 a andextensions 5 c) which give rise toarms
