Definitions
- a device for dispensing fluids into a predetermined location, such as the eye including a nozzle and a shield in which the nozzle head has at least one rib and the shield has a complementary groove, or grooves which mate with the rib, or ribs to respectively place the shield on the nozzle with the proper orientation so that the fluid can be dispensed into the eye as the shield covers it and to cover the nozzle orifice by a closed portion of the shield when the device is to be stored or transported.
- a spray director which is to be located over a nozzle containing an orifice. Proper alignment is obtained between the nozzle and the director by having a rib on the nozzle and a keyway on the director.
- the device of this patent is primarily for directing the spray and no provision is made for any illumination of the spray nozzle orifice so that the eye can be directed towards it to receive the maximum spray.
- the director when the director is placed in a position to cover the nozzle when the device is not being used, it is possible for the orifice to be forcing the open keyway on the director, thereby permitting the orifice to be contaminated.
- the present invention is directed to a novel arrangement of a shield and a spray dispenser nozzle.
- the nozzle has formed thereon one or more aligning means, such as ribs, and the shield has one or more mating aligning means, such as grooves.
- the aligning means of the nozzle and the shield permit the shield to be positioned on the nozzle when the spray is to be dispensed only in such a manner so that the orifice of the nozzle is aligned with the central axis of the shield.
- the shield which is constructed preferably of a translucent plastic material. It also has a second set of aligning means, preferably also in the form of grooves, formed thereon.
- the second set of aligning means when in the'form of grooves, can permit additional illumination of the interior ofthe shield so that the eye can focus upon the orifice of the nozzle as a target. This aids in directing the maximum amount of fluid into the proper location of the eye.
- the second set of aligning means on the shield also mate with ribs on the nozzle head to properly align the shield to serve as a cover for the nozzle orifice. This prevents the nozzle from being contaminated when the device is to be stored or transported.
- the shield of the present invention is relatively simple in construction and can be easily molded on a high speed basis. Also the shield is easily moved and aligned between its two positions of use and storage.
- Another object is to provide a spray nozzle and shield in which aligning means on the shield which are used to orient the shield on the nozzle to cover the orifice also admit light into the shield interior when the fluid is to be dispensed.
- An additional object is to provide a novel eye shield for a spray dispenser having means through which light is admitted so that the eye can focus on the orifice when the spray is dispensed.
- FIG. 1 is an elevational view of the top portion of the bottle and sprayer with the eye shield shown in crosssection;
- FIG. 2 is a view similar to FIG. 1 with the eye shield in an assembled position on the bottle;
- FIG. 3 is an elevational view showing the eye shield in cross-section on top of the bottle in position to be used;
- FIG. 4 is a cross-section looking down along lines 4l--4 of FIG. 2;
- FIG. 5 is a cross-section looking down taken along the lines 5-5 of FIG. 3;
- FIG. 6 is a bottom view of a portion of the eye shield.
- the invention includes an atomizing spray nozzle 10 having a head, or cap, 11 on top of a plunger 10:: which passes through a collar 12 formed as part of a closure fastened on top of a bottle 14.
- the bottle contains the liquid, such as a medicament or other solution (not shown) which is to be sprayed.
- the spray nozzle 10 is of conventional construction and includes a stem 16 with suitable metering and check valve devices therein (not shown) which extends into the liquid in the bottle 14.
- the plunger of the nozzle when depressed will cause a predetermined amount of the liquid in the bottle 14, for example, one or two drops, to exit through an orifice 19 formed in an orifice piece 20 at the upper end of the nozzle.
- the piece 20 is an extension of the stem 16 and is separate from the head 11. It is preferred that the piece 20 be made of a different color than the head 11 for reasons to be explained below.
- the head 11 also has a plurality of aligning means, such as ribs 22 formed thereon.
- the ribs are formed in pairs and, as shown in the various drawings, there are three pairs of ribs 22 spaced substantially 90 apart on center around the skirt of the head 11. Two of the pairs of ribs are spaced 90 on each side of the orifice l9 and the third piece l from the orifice.
- the head is hollow at the bottom of its skirt wall so that it is somewhat flexible.
- the ribs 22 also taper outwardly slightly from their tops to their bottoms.
- An eye shield 30 is provided which is made of a suitable plastic, preferably of a translucent material, which can pass light if the wall thickness is thinned down sufficiently.
- the eye shield includes a generally frustoconical front portion 32 and a rear sleeve 34.
- the front portion 32 terminates in a ring or wall 38 having a smooth front edge 37.
- Wall 38 is generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the shield and the diameter of its inner circumference is somewhat less than the outer diameter across the top of the bottle closure 12.
- Slightly raised projections 39 also can be formed on the interior of wall 38.
- the sleeve 34 of the shield has a generally flat top wall 40, a rear wall 41, two flat side walls 42 and a curved bottom wall 43 which joins the two side walls.
- the curved bottom wall 43 of the sleeve has a keyway 45 formed therein from the sleeve back wall 41 to a point just short of the commencement of the shields conical front portion 32.
- Keyway 45 is shaped generally to conform to the profile of the cap nozzle head 11. Specifically, the key'way includes a straight back edge 45a and a straight front edge 45b which are parallel to each other. Each of the sides of the keyway includes a straight portion 450 starting from the back edge 45a and a curved portion 45d which terminates at the front edge 45b.
- the keyway 45 is cut on the curved bottom wall 43 of the sleeve 34.
- the back edge 45a of the keyway has a slot 470 which continues into the rear wall 41 of the sleeve and a slot 47b in each of the side edges of the keyway between the portions 450 and 45d.
- the slots 47 are generally transverse to the central longitudinal axis of the shield. As seen in FIGS. 3 and 5, the slots 47a and 47b form a first set of aligning means on the sleeve which are positioned to mate with the three pairs of ribs 22. The two curved portions 45d of the side edges of the slot will engage the cap 11 of the nozzle when the shield is in the position shown in FIG. 3.
- the eye shield 30 can only be positioned on the head 11 of the nozzle with the nozzle orifice 19 facing the opening 39 at the front of the conical portion of the cut and aligned generally on the shields central axis. This is shown in FIGS. 3 and 6.
- a second set of aligning means in the form of three grooves 50a, 50b and 50c, are provided on the interior of the sleeve 34.
- the grooves 50a and 50b are generally parallel with the longitudinal axis of the shield and are located on the interior of the respective side walls 42a and 42b. They extend substantially from an intermediate point of the keyway 45 to a point slightly into the conical front portion 32 of the shield. This is shown in FIG. 1.
- the groove 50c is formed on the bottom wall 43 from a portion just forward of the front wall 45b of the keyway into the conical portion of the shield.
- the three grooves 50 have substantially the same length.
- Each of the grooves 50 has substantially the width of a pair of ribs 22 and is substantially the same depth as the ribs.
- the grooves 50 are positioned so that they will mate with the pairs of ribs 22 on the head 11 when the shield 30 is placed in the position shown in FIG. 2, that is. when the bottle is to be stored.
- the interior of the shield also has grooves 64 formed at the point where the top wall 40 of sleeve 34 joins the side walls 42. This is shown best in FIGS. 1 and 4. Grooves 64 extend beyond the flat top wall 40 into the conical area of the shield. Each groove has a pointed end 64a. The interior terminating portion 64b of each groove 64 is also tapered to a point to reduce the thickness of the shield wall.
- the operation of the sprayer and eye shield is as follows.
- the eye shield is in the position shown in FIG. 2 with the sleeve 34 over the nozzle head 11.
- the second set of grooves 50 in the sleeve align and mate with the respective pairs of ribs 22 (see FIG. 4). Since there are only three pairs of ribs,
- the shield can only be placed one way on the nozzle head. This is with the flat top wall 40 of the sleeve covering the orifice piece 20 and the orifice to protect the orifice from being contaminated. It is not possible to place the sleeve of the shield on the nozzle with the orifice piece facing the keyway 45.
- the interior of the sleeve top wall 40 is also dished out slightly at 40a so that the orifice piece 20 will have some clearance in the event it is not flush with the cap 11.
- the eye shield is pushed down to the position shown in FIG. 2 until the top edge of the closure 12 rests against the area of the interior of wall 38 and projections 39 at the front of the conical portion of the shield. When in this position, it is not possible to push the plunger down to eject any fluid from the bottle. A friction fit is produced between the pairs of ribs 22 and the grooves 30 and/or between wall 38 and closure 12 so that the shield will not fall off the bottle.
- the eye shield 30 is pulled straight up off of the bottle,
- the sprayer is now ready to be operated.
- the user opens his eye-and places the front end 39 of the shield over the eye with the eyelid open, as shown in FIG. 3.
- the second set of longitudinal aligning grooves 50 and the slots 64 serve a useful function. That is, they thin down the wall of the shield to admit more light into its interior. Thus, the eye will have sufficient light within the shield to enable it to focus on the orifice 19.
- the pointed ends 640 of the slots 64 also aid in directing the pupil of the eye to focus on the orifice.
- the orifice piece 20 is preferably a different color than the cap 11 to make it easier for the eye to focus properly.
- the light Since the light will be soft and diffused there will be no blinking of the eyelid due to either the absence of light or to the presence of too strong a light.
- the light is admitted into the interior of the shield without there being any opening or space, between the nozzle and the eye through which foreign material, such as dust or dirt, can enter when the spray is operated.
- the shield To store the shield when its use is finished, it is pulled off the nozzle, from the position shown in FIG. 3 and turned until the second set of longitudinal grooves 50a are aligned with the pairs of ribs 22. Due to the slight resiliency of the lower portion of the skirt wall of the head 11 and the taper of the ribs 22, a friction fit is established, as shown in FIG. 4. This prevents the shield from dropping off the nozzle. As pointed out above, due to the presence of the grooves 50, the shield can be placed back onto the nozzle only in the position shown in FIG. 2 with the top wall 40 covering the orifice piece 20. This protects the orifice piece from having any dirt or other foreign material lodge therein. This aids in preserving the relative cleanliness of the device.
- a dispenser system for administering fluid to a confined location, such as the eye comprising a spray nozzle having a head with an orifice, the head having at least one first aligning means thereon, an eye shield having an opening at one end thereof and a sleeve at the other, said sleeve being a closed surface except for a keyway therein which is formed with a shape substantially complementary to that of the head and at least one second aligning means substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the shield to mate with the first aligning means on the head, said first and second aligning means positioned to align the orifice toward the shield opening when the keyway of the sleeve is placed over the nozzle head with said first and second aligning means in a mating relationship when the shield is in a position of use to dispense fluid, the sleeve also having formed thereon at least one third aligning means substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the shield to mate with the first aligning means on the head, said first and third aligning
