Definitions

  • the invention relates to a spray cap for attachment to an aerosol compressed gas pack.
  • Compressed gas packs are usually constructed from a spray can with a spray line opening into the can lid and a spray valve which is located in, in front of or behind the spray line. This valve is closed in the “stored state” and can be opened against a restoring force by means of an actuating element which is accessible from the outside in order to remove the contents of the packaging.
  • the usual spray cans are provided with a protective hood to protect the spray head.
  • Spray cans generally consist of metal or plastic, and the spray head, parts of the spray head, the actuating element and the protective hood can also be made of plastic.
  • the content to be sprayed is filled into the metal or plastic can under excess pressure and is released as a mist (aerosol) or foam when the valve is actuated.
  • Spray cans or pressurized gas packs are on the market for a wide range of products; Products from the cosmetics sector, such as hairspray, deodorants, shaving foams, but also spray adhesives, room fragrances, insect sprays, cleaning agents and many more are mentioned as examples.
  • Spray systems currently available for aerosol compressed gas packs are available in one or more parts. They are usually made of plastic (mainly polypropylene).
  • the finger actuating surface for triggering the spraying process is resiliently or movably mounted in the visible outer part of the spray cap, so that the spraying mechanism can be triggered by pressing down the finger actuating surface.
  • BESTATIGUNGSKOPIE Flexible areas in caps on aerosol cans are known from the P ⁇ nzip. Parts or areas are usually separated or separated from the rest of the spray cap and represent the actuating surface for triggering the spraying mechanics. To ensure free mobility, these areas are not or only partially with the visible outer part connected to the spray cap So there is no closed surface in the entire system
  • DE 91 03 135 U1 relates to a spray can with a spray line flowing into the can lid, with a spray valve in the spray line, which is normally closed and can be opened with an externally accessible, removable actuating element against a restoring force, and with one, above the can head can be removed, removable protective hood
  • a spray valve in the spray line which is normally closed and can be opened with an externally accessible, removable actuating element against a restoring force, and with one, above the can head can be removed, removable protective hood
  • One of the embodiments of this spray can has an elastic cover plate, the can lid giving way under pressure. By moving the lid in the direction of the spray valve, it is opened
  • No. 3,262,607 also shows a spray bottle cap with a flexible head plate, the spray jet emerging through two openings lying one behind the other in an inner and an outer cover wall
  • EP 0 323 874 A1 shows a container provided with a protective cap for spraying products.
  • the product is dispensed here through the absorption and reproduction of the product via an absorbent, which is essentially in the form of a disc.
  • Another embodiment of the container is also designed in such a way that the means for actuating the ejection device from the outside of the protective bell has a deformable region of the protective bell
  • a disadvantage of the previous spraying systems is the fact that the snow actuating surface and the visible outer part of the spraying cap do not form a unit or that their spraying mechanism has a complicated structure.
  • the spaces between the actuating surface and the cap can contaminate from the outside, leading to impairment of the spray mechanism. In addition to dust or particles, this can be particularly the case with sticky spray mist like this
  • spray adhesive or the like there are appropriate droplets of the package contents which permanently damage the spray mechanism.
  • Another disadvantage of the two-part system is the low visual attractiveness.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a spray system in the form of a spray cap for aerosol compressed gas cylinders, which does not have the disadvantages of the prior art mentioned.
  • a spray cap is to be made available in which the penetration of contaminants from the outside into the spray mechanism is prevented or at least reduced and which can be used for simple spray mechanisms.
  • the main claim relates to a spray cap for attachment to an aerosol compressed gas pack, the spray cap 1 having a completely closed surface, there being a nozzle opening 11 in the spray cap 1 and an actuating surface 12 for triggering the spray mechanism, which consists of a flexible material, being integrated into the surface ,
  • the closed surface of the spray cap 1 protects it from the outside against moisture and contamination.
  • the surface is interrupted only in the area of the nozzle opening 11, the nozzle opening 11 being able to be integrated into the spray cap 1 in such a way that no droplets or the like can penetrate here either.
  • the actuation of the finger button which is located under the spray cap 1, is made possible by the reversible deformation of the flexible plastic in the area of the actuating surface 12. If the actuating surface 12 is released again, the original shape of the spray cap 1 or the actuating surface 12 is restored due to the flexibility.
  • the softer and more flexible material also has the advantage of higher grip, so that slipping off the actuating surface 12 is avoided and the handling, in particular in the wet area, is improved.
  • the grip feeling for the user is more pleasant than with the previous operating surfaces.
  • this effect is enhanced by the fact that the actuating surface for triggering the spray mechanism is structured, in particular by knobs, notches, grooves, notches or the like.
  • a particularly advantageous embodiment of the spray system according to the invention is characterized in that the system is produced in a two-component injection molding process. It is also possible to insert a second component around a part previously inserted into the injection molding tool. In a further procedure, this membrane area can be glued, welded or assembled separately.
  • the spray cap consists of a thermoplastic, preferably PE or PP.
  • PS, SAN, ABS, PA, POM or other bulk plastics can also be used.
  • the actuating surface is made from a soft synthetic material with a high resilience, for example from a thermoplastic elastomer, preferably based on PE or EPDM. Silicones or polyurethanes can also be used.
  • the previously known spray mechanisms can be used, so that existing production plants do not have to be converted for this.
  • the usual spray cans with a poppet valve can be used as a compressed gas pack in connection with the spray cap according to the invention.
  • the materials used to manufacture the spray mechanism no longer have to be of the same high quality as previous spray caps, since the closed system prevents moisture and aggressive vapors or aerosols from reaching the mechanism. Special consideration, for example, of the corrosion resistance can therefore be dispensed with when using the system according to the invention, so that the production costs of the spray system can be reduced.
  • the spray cap 1 according to the invention can be shaped to fit all common compressed gas packs 2.
  • the neck 13 of the spray cap 1 resting on the compressed gas pack 2 can additionally be glued to the packaging in order to achieve a better seal to the outside. Since no impurities can penetrate to the inside, it is not necessary to open the spray cap 1 to clean the spray head.
  • connection between the spray cap 1 and the pressurized gas pack 2 in the region of the neck 13 can be designed in the form of a flanged edge on the pressurized gas pack, via which the spray cap snaps into place.
  • a variant of this is when the spray cap snaps into place on the compressed gas pack due to a projection or a groove.
  • an aerosol compressed gas pack with a spray cap as described above is claimed according to the invention, the pressurized gas pack 2 and the spray cap 1 being in one piece, that is to say forming a common closed surface.
  • This configuration of the entire pressurized gas packaging system additionally improves the outward sealing, which on the one hand improves the protection of the interior and the spray mechanism and on the other hand optimizes the appearance, so that the pressurized gas pack is more attractive to the consumer.
