Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for filling areosol packages, and more particularly to an apparatus which may be utilized to admit liquefied propellant into such packages.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a filling apparatus of the just outlined characteristics wherein the sealing elements of the filling head are protected against freezing so that they remain intact for long periods of use, and wherein large quantities of liquefied propellant may be admitted into consecutive aerosol packages within exceptionally short periods of time so that the output of such apparatus is Well above the output of conventional filling apparatus which are known to me at this time.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a filling apparatus wherein the fluid-admitting passage defined by the filling head is invariably sealed from the atmosphere and wherein the propellant is automatically prevented from penetrating into the container or into the atmosphere as soon as a package receives a requisite quantity of such fluid.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide an improved filling head for use in an apparatus of the above outlined characteristics.
  • An additional object of the invention is to provide an improvedvalve structure for use in the filling head and to assemble the valve structure in such a way that it automatically opens the valve of an aerosol package when the filling head is ready for admission of propellant.
  • a concomitant object of the invention is to provide an improved nozzle for the filling head and to construct and assemble the nozzle in such a way that it may be sealingly coupled with an aerosol package in a very simple and time-saving manner.
  • one feature of my invention resides in the provision of an apparatus for admitting a compressed fluid, particularly a liquefied propellant of any known formula, into aerosol packages of the type wherein a normally closed valve includes a rounded casing and a valve stem and wherein the outer end of the stem carries an actuating member having an annular bead located adjacent to the stem and depressible against the bias of a spring in a direction toward the casing so as to move the stem into an open position in which the stem and the casing define between themselves a preferably annular path leading into the interior of the package, i.e., into the interior of the container whose cover carries the aforementioned valve.
  • the apparatus comp-rises a filling head including a nozzle whose open end accommodates an annular valve seat movable into a position around and in sealing engagement with the casing of a valve while the open end of the nozzle abuts against the cover of the corresponding package, a valve member received with clearance in the nozzle and having a reciprocable annular front end portion adapted to surround an actuating member, means forming part of the valve member for depressing the actuating member when the valve seat engages the casing, a conical internal surface provided on the valve member and sealingly engaging the bead of an actuating member when the casing is engaged by the valve seat, a helical spring or other suitable means for biasing the annular front end portion of the valve member into sealing engagement with the valve seat so that the valve of the package is open but the interior of the package remains sealed from the atmosphere when the casing is engaged by the valve seat, a piston which is rigid or integral with the annular front end portion of the valve member and is spaced from the valve seat, and valve
  • the fluid is admitted at such pressure that it shifts the piston in a direction away from the open end of the nozzle whereby the annular front end portion of the valve member moves away from the valve seat and the fluid is free to flow in the path between the casing and the seat of the valve to fill the interior of the package.
  • the piston is reciprocable in a cylinder which forms a fixed part of the filling head and which is provided with suitably distributed apertures to allow for inflow of compressed fluid into the space between the piston and the valve seat. Since the valve seat is immediately adjacent to the valve of the package, and since the annular front end portion of the valve member returns to closing position as soon as the pressure of fluid against the piston decreases, losses in compressed fluid in response to detachment of the valve member from the casing are minimal.
  • FIG. 1 is an axial section through a filling apparatus which embodies one form of the invention, the valve member of the apparatus being shown in two different positions;
  • FIG. 2 is a similar axial section through the filling head of a modified apparatus.
  • FIG. 1 there is shown an apparatus for admitting liquefied propellant into the container 22 of an aerosol package.
  • the apparatus comprises a source A of liquefied propellant, a conduit B which con eys compressed propellant from the source A, and a filling head C having a cylindrical or tubular housing 2 the rear end of which is tapped, as at 1, to take the externally threaded discharge end of the conduit B.
  • a metering valve D in the conduit B may be adjusted to admit propellant at a desired pressure, for example, at a relatively low pressure prior to actual admission of propellant into the container 22 and at a very high pressure when the propellant is to penetrate into the interior of the container 22.
  • the housing 2 accommodates a cylinder 3 which is held in the illustrated position by the discharge end of the conduit B and is provided with a first set of axially extending apertures 17 and with a second set of'radially extending apertures 13.
  • the apertures 17 form a ring in a collar 3a which is integral with the cylinder 3, and the apertures 13 constitute slots machined into the front end face 3b of the cylinder.
  • This front end face 3b abuts against an annular retainer plate 4 which is supported by an internal shoulder 2a of the housing 2.
  • a nozzle 5 is provided with an external collar 5a which bears against a second internal shoulder 2b of the housing 2, and the open end of this nozzle 5 extends through and beyond the front end of the housing.
  • annular sealing gasket 15 is compressed between one side of the retainer 4 and the collar 5a to prevent leakage of propellant around the pe riphery of the nozzle 5.
  • the open end of the nozzle 5 is formed as an inwardly extending annular flange 5b whose front end face 23 abuts against the cover or lid 24 of the container 22.
  • the flange 5b defines an internal annular shoulder 50 which serves as an abutment for an annular valve seat 7 having a circumferential groove for an annular sealing gasket 16 which prevents leakage of propellant along the shoulder 56.
  • the rear end face of the valve seat 7 is provided with an annular cushion or liner 19 of elastically deformable material which is recessed into the valve seat and is held in the position shown in FIG.
  • valve seat 7 is provided with an annular groove which receives a sealing gasket 25, and this gasket bears against the peripheral surface of a rounded casing 26 forming part of a combined fluid-admitting and evacuating valve 20 of the aerosol package.
  • the internal diameter of the sleeve 6 exceeds the internal diameter of a one-piece valve member 9 which is reciprocable with clearance through the central aperture of the retainer 4 and whose front end face 19 normally extends into actual abutment with the elastic liner 10.
  • the valve member 9 is provided with external centering fins 14 which are slidable along the internal surface of the sleeve 6 and define between themselves a series of axially extending channels permitting the propellant to flow toward the exposed end face of the liner 10.
  • the rear end portion of the valve member 9 is rigid with a piston 11 which is reciprocable in the cylinder 3 and which is biased by a strong helical expansion spring 8 accommodated in a dome 3c at the rear end of the cylinder.
  • the bias of the spring 8 suffices to maintain the piston 11 in the axial position shown in the left-hand portion of FIG. 1, whereby the front end face 19 of the valve member 9 bears against the liner 1%) and prevents entry of propellant into the container 22.
  • the piston 11 is formed with a circumferential groove for an annular sealing gasket 12 which prevents leakage of propellant into a rear cylinder chamber 3d accommodating the spring 8.
  • This rear chamber 3d communicates with a venting tube 13 which extends radially through the housing 2 and through a port machined into the cylinder 3 to insure that the pressure prevailing in the chamber 3d invariably equals atmospheric pressure.
  • a front chamber 3e of the cylinder 3 terminates at the front end face of the piston 11 and surrounds the valve member 9.
  • the front chamber 3e forms part of a continuous passage for propellant, this passage being composed of the apertures 17, of the annular compartment between the collar 3a and the retainer 4, of the radial apertures 18, of the annular aperture in the retainer 4, of the chamber 3e, and of the annular clearance between the sleeve 6 and the periphery of the valve member 9.
  • the front end face 19 is formed with an axially extending recess 27 which accommodates the actuating member 21 of the valve 20, and the foremost end of this recess is bounded by an outwardly diverging conical surface 29 which forms a seal around an annular head 28 provided at the inner end of the actuating member 21.
  • the front end portion of the valve member 9 is of annular shape.
  • the valve 21) comprises a stem 31 which is depressible through the intermediary of the actuating member 21 in order to permit admission of fluid into the container 22 in a manner well known from the art of aerosol packages.
  • valve D When the valve D is fully open or is opened to such an extent that the pressure of propellant flowing through the conduit B overcomes the bias of the spring 8 (by acting against the front end face of the piston 11 in the cylinder chamber 3e), the front end face 19 of the valve memher 9 moves away from the elastic liner 1t and defines therewith an annular gap 30 which is shown in the righthand portion of FIG. 1.
  • This gap 30 then permits propellant to flow through the channels defined by the centering fins 14 and through an annular path defined by the stem 31 with the casing 26 (while the actuating member 21 remains in depressed position) to penetrate into the interior of the container 22.
  • the filling apparatus of FIG. 1 is operated as follows:
  • the front end face 23 of the nozzle 5 is caused to abut against the outerside of the cover 24 while the metering valve D remains closed. Therefore, the spring 8 is free to expand and maintains the front end face 19 of the valve member 9 in sealing engagement with the annular liner 10, i.e., the passage for the propellant is sealed.
  • the valve D is then opened so that the pro pellant may issue from the source A and flows at a relatively low pressure first through the conduit B to fill up the passage all the Way to the exposed end face of the liner 10.
  • the thus admitted propellant is vaporized and its pressure against the front end face of the piston 11 is too weak to overcome the bias of the spring 8. Therefore, the spring 8 continues to keep the front end face 19 of the valve member 9 in sealing engagement with the liner 10.
  • the depth of the recess 27 and the position of the conical surface 29 are selected in such a way that the stem 31 of the valve 20 moves away from its seat so that the valve 20 is open as soon as the front end face 23 of the nozzle 5 comes in actual abutment with the cover 24.
  • the operator opens the metering valve D to such an extent that the conduit B admits a predetermined quantity of liquefied propellant which acts against the front end face of the piston 11 and moves the front end face 19 of the valve member 9 away from the liner 10.
  • the propellant then flows through the resulting annular gap 39 between the valve member 9 and valve seat 7 and penetrates into the container 22.
  • Such entry of liquefied propellant takes place along the top face of the casing 26 and through the annular path between the periphery of the valve stem 31 and the casing 26.
  • the propellant also acts against the underside of the actuating member 21 and maintains the bead 28 in sealing engagement With the conical surface 29.
  • valve D is closed when the container 22 receives a predetermined quantity of liquefied propellant whereby the pressure in the passage defined by the filling head C drops and the spring 8 expands to return the front end face 19 of the valve member 9 into sealing engagement with the elastic liner 10. The filling head is then ready to be applied against the cover of the next aerosol package.
  • the filling apparatus of FIG. 2 differentiates from the apparatus of FIG. 1 in that the reciprocable one-piece valve member 9 is replaced by a two-piece valve member including a reciprocable sleeve 33 and a fixed mandrel 32.
  • the rear end of the mandrel 32 is attached to the top wall of the dome 30' by a bolt 35, and the sleeve 33 carries a piston 11' which is reciprocable in the cylinder 3'.
  • the front end face 32a of the mandrel 32 is formed with a central recess 27' and is provided with a circumferential groove for a sealing gasket 34.
  • the front end face 19' of sleeve 33 normally bears against the liner 10' because the piston 11' is biased by the spring 8, but the pressure of propellant entering at 17' can overcome the bias of the spring 8' so that the sleeve 33 is then retracted to the position shown in the righthand portion of FIG. 2 and defines with the valve seat 7' an annular gap 30 for admission of propellant into the container of the aerosol package, not shown.
  • the construction of the filling apparatus shown in FIG. 2 is identical with that of the apparatus shown in FIG. 1.
  • the recess 27' will keep the valve stem 31 of the aerosol package in open position as long as the front end face 23' of the nozzle 5 abuts against the cover 24.
  • An important advantage of the apparatus shown in FIG. 2 is that the actuating member 21 need not change its axial position with reference to the casing 26 when the pressure of propellant overcomes the bias of the spring 8'.
  • the axial position of the valve stem 31 remains unchanged because the mandrel 32 remains stationary as long as the nozzle 5' remains in abutment with the cover 24 of an aerosol package.
  • the improved apparatus is susceptible of many modifications without departing from the spirit of my invention.
  • the spring 8 or 8' may be replaced by one or more different springs or by a hydraulic or pnuematic biasing device as long as the biasing device insures that the front end face 19 or 19 remains in sealing engagement with the liner 10 or 10' prior and subsequent to actual admission of propellant into the container of an aerosol package.
  • the passage for liquefied propellant through the filling head is very long and the valve seat of the filling head is located at a considerable distance from the valve of the aerosol package. Consequently, and whenever the filling head is detached from a package, a certain quantity of propellant which fills the space between the valve seat and the valve 20 is free to evaporate into the surrounding atmosphere. This entails considerable losses because the propellant is rather expensive, and such losses are especially high if the apparatus is used in a mass-producing plant wherein a large number of aerosol packages must be filled per unit of time.
  • the valve seat 7 or 7' is immediately adjacent to the valve 20 of the aerosol package so that the quantity of propellant which escapes when the nozzle is moved away from the cover 24 is negligible.
  • the quantity of propellant which can evaporate upon detachment of the filling head from the aerosol package is that quantity which fills the space be tween the liner 10 or 10' and the gasket 25 or 25.
  • the conical surface 29 or 29' will prevent penetration of propellant into the recess 27, 27.
  • the apparatus according to the invention may be used advantageously in connection with propellents like dichlorodifluoromethane, trichloromonofluoromethane, propane, butane, vinyl chloride, methylene chloride or with combinations of the said or other propellents.
  • propellents like dichlorodifluoromethane, trichloromonofluoromethane, propane, butane, vinyl chloride, methylene chloride or with combinations of the said or other propellents.
