- Another object of the invention was to provide easily manageable flask assemblies.
- Yet another object of the present invention was to provide in a reduced volume a group of vials that can be used conveniently and without loss of time or tedious manipulations.
- the invention thus relates to a device comprising a combination of individual bottles, adapted to be attached to a support and to provide each bottle, as required, pouring position by gravity after opening.
- the device according to the invention thus comprises, in a first aspect, a combination:
- At least two bottles or individual containers interconnected by all or part of their lower faces, and
- a removable fastening system essentially comprising a suction cup and / or a rod provided with a hook, while each of said bottles comprises in said lower face a cavity which, alone or in combination with a similar cavity situated on the face lower part of another bottle of said combination of vials, defines a hollow space in which the head of said suction cup and / or said rod provided with a hook can penetrate and remain fixed in force or by snap-fastening, with the ability to rotate and separation possible by means of a simple manual effort.
- Figure 1 shows schematically a device according to the invention in front view with two contiguous bottles respectively closed (Fig IA) and with the lower bottle open and liquid flow (Fig IB);
- FIG. 2 schematically shows in profile a device according to FIG. 1, with the vials closed (Fig. 2A) or both open (Fig. 2B);
- Figure 3 shows schematically a variant of a device according to the invention in front view with two contiguous bottles, while the bottle located in the lower position is open;
- Figure 4 shows schematically in profile a device according to FIG. 3, turned 45 ° in the direction of the descending arrow and with the two bottles open;
- Figure 5 shows schematically another variant of a device according to the invention in front view with two contiguous bottles, while the bottle located in the lower position is open;
- Figure 6 shows schematically in profile a device according to FIG. 5, with the two flasks open;
- Figure 7 shows a suction cup and hook rod assembly used in accordance with the invention in one-piece form (Figure 7A) and alternatively consisting of two integral parts (Figure 7B);
- the device comprising a pivoting and hinged multiple bottle for dispensing pourable products according to the invention comprises, in its aspect which incorporates all the means mentioned above, a device comprising a combination: At least two bottles or individual containers 1, 2 interconnected by all or part of their lower faces 3, and
- a removable fastening system 4 essentially comprising a suction cup 5 and / or a rod 6 provided with a hook 7, while each of said bottles has in said lower face a cavity 8 which, alone or in combination with a cavity similar 8 'located on the underside of another bottle of said combination of vials, defines a hollow space in which the head 9 of said suction cup and / or said rod provided with a hook can penetrate and remain fixed in force or by snap, with the possibility of rotation and separation possible by means of a simple manual effort.
- the subject of the invention is also a multiple flask for producing such a device, the said multiple flask being composed of at least two flasks 1, 2 each of which is connected to at least one other flask by all or a part of the flask. their respective lower faces 3.
- the device according to the invention comprises two bottles 1, 2.
- This device may, however, comprise more than two bottles, for example three or more, advantageously regularly distributed around an axis perpendicular to the average plane of their combination and passing through the center of the figure defined by their respective lower faces, which corresponds to a star arrangement with n branches, where n is the number of flasks.
- multiple vial is understood to mean both a combination of complete individual vials and a vial shaped to have a plurality of compartments arranged and oriented relative to each other to satisfy the characteristics of the object defined here.
- the bottles 1, 2 are of any material, preferably rigid plastic, semi-rigid or flexible. Soft plastic bottles are particularly preferred, since it is then possible to encourage the pouring of product out of the bottle concerned by exerting a pressure on it. Suitable materials are, inter alia, polyethylene (especially HDPE), polypropylene, PVC, PVDC, etc.
- the technique of bonding or welding the flasks between them depends on their material and can be chosen from appropriate techniques known to those skilled in the art, if necessary after prior tests.
- the suction cup 5 and / or the rod 6 provided with a hook 7 are advantageously made of flexible or semi-rigid plastic material such as PVC or an elastomer chosen from those known to those skilled in the art.
- the sucker and / or rod with hook assembly constitutes a fixing member, intended for fixing the device according to the invention to a wall, preferably a vertical wall, and / or by suspension by means of said hook (in practice, but not exclusively to a pipe, a tap, a heating radiator, a soap dish, a horizontal bar such as those intended for hanging shower curtains). Equivalent hanging opportunities can be found for kitchen applications.
- the rod 6 and the hook 7 can be made in the same room as the suction cup 5.
- the rod 6 and its hook 7 can be independent of the suction cup 5 and secured thereto around the head 9 of said suction cup .
- the rod and the hook may be metal or plastic.
- the vials or containers concerned are advantageously symmetrical with respect to the axis of the suction cup 5 to which they are attached.
- each bottle is equipped with a lid, advantageously connected to the bottle by a hinge such as a flexible hinge click, or other hermetic sealing member, which can be opened or closed in a traditional manner by a appropriate action of the user.
- the dispensing of product from that of the bottles which the user has opened after having pivoted to bring its pouring orifice in the lower position is performed from below, by gravity and / or by pressing on said open bottle.
- the pourable products concerned may be chosen from among pure or substantially pure products, solutions in water and / or in a solvent, especially an alcoholic solvent, suspensions, water-in-oil emulsions, oil-in-water emulsions, microemulsions, suspensions, powders, fluid pastes, and others.
- the bottles of the device according to the invention advantageously comprise each a cavity fraction, in practice a half-cavity 8, which is completed to form an entire cavity by a cavity fraction 8 'of the bottle attached to the previous one.
- the two cavity fractions 8, 8 ' are preferably both half-cavities.
- Said cavity 8, 8 'thus formed is of suitable size to receive the head 9 of the suction cup 5 and / or the end of the rod 6 opposite the hook 7.
- this cavity 8, 8 ' can receive an additional piece, fixed with freedom of rotation on the head 9 of the suction cup 5 and / or at the end of the rod 6 opposite that which carries the hook 7, said piece additional
- Such a piece may for example have a star configuration with dovetail elements at the ends of its branches, said dovetail elements, or having any other suitable profile, being intended to fit into said n-shaped elements. 1 cavities.
- the depth of said cavities must in practice be at least equal to the axial dimension of the suction head 9 or the end of the rod 6 intended to penetrate into such a cavity 8, 8 '.
- the device according to the invention comprises half-cavities 8, 8 'provided with protruding ridges and a suction cup 5 whose head 9 has a non-circular configuration, in order to enable it to constitute a abutment against said protruding ridges provided inside the half-cavities 8, 8 '.
- the device according to the invention comprises a suction head 5 provided on its sides with substantially symmetrical excrescent ridges and cavities 8, 8 'having slots forming grooves or notches suitably positioned so that said protruding ridges of the suction cup 5 can be housed there.
- the device according to the invention thus advantageously comprises a means providing a snap or escape effect (but in this case with a privileged sense of rotation) to avoid a completely free rotation of the bottles, who may not be desired if it is induced by an imbalance due to significant weight differences between the bottles, especially after privileged use of the contents of one of the bottles more than the other or the others.
- the suction cup 5 has on its outer surface at least one protrusion (not shown) such as for example "pins" reported or preferably from the same material demolding; in case of plurality, these protuberances are preferably arranged in a line or arc of a circle, and are intended to serve as an abutment for the bottom flask on which a product sample is taken, in such a way that the said product sampling operation does not cause a tilting of said vial and, by driving effect, the diametrically opposite bottle or bottles, and thus avoids a lateral bias of the suction head 9 which could induce the separation of the suction cup 5.
- protrusion such as for example "pins” reported or preferably from the same material demolding
- these protuberances are preferably arranged in a line or arc of a circle, and are intended to serve as an abutment for the bottom flask on which a product sample is taken, in such a way that the said product sampling operation does not cause a tilting of said vial
- Said protuberances may be of any shape, and in practice in the form of cones, truncated cones, truncated pyramids, among others. Said protuberances are advantageously distributed in a line or arc on at least one circular sector of the upper surface of the suction cup 5, preferably on at least one circular sector located on the side of said suction surface opposite the rod 6 provided with hook 7, or alternatively on the same side as these, or both sides.
- the height of said protuberances in the plane perpendicular to the mean plane of the suction cup is advantageously such that the bottle or bottles concerned can abut on said at least one protuberance and can (nt) thus substantially maintain their verticality.
