Definitions
- the present invention relates to the technical field of liquid distribution.
- it relates to the field of liquid distribution in the form of drops or in the form of a spray, such as ophthalmic, nasal, oral or auricular fluid.
- Document FR 2 937 018 discloses a liquid dispensing device comprising a bottle and a dispensing nozzle. This tip comprises a liquid dispensing opening.
- the residual liquid located near the dispensing opening may evaporate.
- the concentration of active principle contained in the residual liquid is therefore greater and the active ingredient can finally be deposited near the opening, forming a precipitate.
- the quantity of active ingredient delivered is therefore increased by this precipitate which is carried off during the delivery of the next drop.
- the dose of active ingredient delivered is therefore greater than the prescribed dose. There is also a risk of administering solid particles that have not been dissolved in the next drop delivered.
- the residual liquid located near the outlet can be contaminated by bacteria that can contaminate the next drop delivered. There is therefore also a risk of microbial contamination of the delivered liquid.
- the present invention proposes in particular to provide a liquid dispensing device for delivering a more precise product dose.
- the subject of the invention is a liquid dispensing device, comprising:
- a removable cap comprising a shape in the immediate vicinity and facing the liquid dispensing opening, called expulsion form of the residual liquid, configured to discharge the residual liquid to the buffer when the cap is mounted on the device.
- the shape expulsion located in the immediate vicinity and facing the liquid dispensing opening expels most of the residual liquid downstream of the dispensing opening, especially to the residual liquid absorption buffer disposed in proximity, c that is, the residual liquid is discharged to the absorption buffer. It is therefore understood that the buffer is disposed downstream of the dispensing opening. Thus, most of the residual liquid is drained out of the dispensing opening.
- the expulsion form since the volume of the residual liquid present downstream of the dispensing opening is generally small, it is advantageous for the expulsion form to be positioned sufficiently close to and facing the dispensing opening when the cap is mounted on the device and can thus expel this small amount of liquid out of the liquid distribution opening.
- the expulsion form is integral with the cap, generally after molding.
- upstream and downstream are interpreted by taking the direction of distribution of the liquid as a reference direction.
- the invention may further include one or more of the following features, taken alone or in combination.
- the form of expulsion is a form substantially complementary to the dispensing opening. It delimits preferably with the distribution opening of liquid a way of evacuation of the residual liquid.
- the expulsion form is made of a non-absorbent material.
- the residual liquid can not be absorbed by this form and the expulsion of the residual liquid from the dispensing opening to the buffer is more efficient.
- the device comprises a residual liquid evaporation path between the buffer and the outside of the device when the cap is mounted on the device. This promotes the evaporation of the residual liquid absorbed by the buffer.
- This evaporation path may for example comprise air passage orifices in the cap, these orifices being preferably carried by an upper face of the cap.
- the device can take, when the cap is mounted on the device, a sealed configuration of the device, before its first use, wherein the evaporation path of the residual liquid is closed between the buffer and the outside of the device, and a ventilation configuration of the device, wherein the evaporation path is open between the buffer and the outside.
- a sealed configuration of the device before its first use, wherein the evaporation path of the residual liquid is closed between the buffer and the outside of the device
- a ventilation configuration of the device wherein the evaporation path is open between the buffer and the outside.
- the path is closed by a removable cover, preferably disposable, attached to the cap.
- a cap is reported upstream of the evaporation path of the residual liquid, for example by relating it directly to the dispensing opening or to a valve disposed near this opening.
- the device can move from the sealed configuration to the ventilation configuration by moving at least a portion of the cap relative to a reservoir on which the device is mounted.
- the device comprises locking means of the device in ventilation configuration.
- These means are preferably non-removable, that is to say permanent. It is therefore possible to go from the hermetic closure configuration, which corresponds to a storage configuration of the device, to the ventilation configuration, which corresponds to a configuration of use of the device, but it is not possible to pass from the ventilation configuration to the hermetic closure configuration. This ensures that after the first use of the device, the evaporation path of the residual liquid remains open between the buffer and the outside of the device.
- the cap comprises an outer casing and an inner casing, mounted movable relative to each other between a first configuration, corresponding to the hermetic sealing configuration of the device and a second configuration corresponding to the ventilation configuration of the device.
- the outer casing and the inner casing are rotatable relative to each other, this rotational movement preferably generating a translational longitudinal displacement of one relative to the other.
- Longitudinal direction means the axial direction of the device, generally corresponding to the axis of the reservoir.
- the two envelopes are co-axial, their respective axes coinciding with the axis of the device.
- the outer casing and the inner casing of the cap each comprise air passages and the cap comprises closure means, when the device is in hermetic sealing configuration, the evaporation path between the orifices of the outer envelope and those of the inner envelope.
- the sealing means comprise for example a ring carried by the outer casing and cooperating by clamping with a frustoconical surface of the inner casing of the cap, or vice versa.
- the closure means comprise pins carried by the outer casing and cooperating by clamping with the orifices of the inner casing of the cap, or vice versa.
- the inner casing comprises a ramp cooperating with a complementary abutment carried by the outer casing, or vice versa, so that the rotation of the outer casing with respect to the inner casing generates a longitudinal displacement of the relative to the other.
- the device passes from the sealed configuration to the ventilation configuration: the evaporation path is open between the buffer and the outside of the device.
- the passage from one configuration to another is done transparently for the user who, when unscrewing the cap to use the device for the first time, first passes the device of the closure configuration hermetic to the ventilation configuration before completely unscrewing the cap.
- the outer casing and the inner casing comprise longitudinal retaining stops of the outer casing on the inner casing.
- the stops allow limited longitudinal movement of the outer casing relative to the inner casing so that, thanks to the retaining stops, the two casings can not be detached from one another. It is therefore understood that the two envelopes can move relative to each other longitudinally by a predetermined distance but can not be separated from one another.
- the absorption buffer comprises one or more hydrophilic materials, allowing the drainage of liquid, that is to say capable of absorbing liquid, or even allowing it to evaporate if an evaporation path is open.
- the pad material may comprise woven or nonwoven materials. It may for example comprise hydrophilic cotton, hydrophilically treated polyethylene (PE), hydrophilically treated polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyvinyl acetate (PVA) foam or a mixture of several materials. hydrophilic.
- the absorption buffer comprises a hydrophilic material with open porosity.
- Open porosity material means a material comprising an array of continuous channels defined by pores communicating with each other, which allow the liquid absorbed in the buffer to be drained from the dispensing opening to the outside of the container. device. Thus, the liquid can migrate from one side to the other of the buffer and evaporate to the outside of the device.
- the absorption pad comprises at least two different absorbent materials, the at least two materials being arranged one above the other and the downstream material being more hydrophilic than the material upstream.
- the liquid is sucked by the most hydrophilic material and the residual liquid does not stagnate in the least hydrophilic material disposed near the dispensing opening.
- the material upstream comprises a hydrophobic material. It therefore prevents the liquid absorbed by the most hydrophilic material from returning to the dispensing opening.
- the pad is attached to the cap, more precisely inside the cap, around the form of expulsion.
- the form of expulsion comprises an absorbent material. Most of the residual liquid present downstream of the dispensing opening is expelled to the absorption buffer disposed in the vicinity, that is, the residual liquid can be discharged to the absorption buffer. drainage of the residual liquid at through the form of expulsion. Thus, most of the residual liquid is drained out of the dispensing opening.
- the device comprises a hydrophobic web with open porosity, the web being attached to the pad and the expulsion form.
- the liquid absorbed by the most hydrophilic material can not return to the dispensing opening.
- the tampon comprises a hydrophilic material, this material being more hydrophilic than the absorbent material of the expulsion form.
- this material being more hydrophilic than the absorbent material of the expulsion form.
- the material of the expulsion form comprises a hydrophobic material. It therefore prevents the liquid absorbed by the buffer from returning to the dispensing opening.
- the form of expulsion came from material with the buffer.
- the tampon and the expulsion form may for example be made of a material comprising an absorption gradient, the part forming the expulsion form being less absorbent than the part forming the buffer.
- the pad comprises a surface for contact with the ambient air, the surface having at least one relief to increase the contact surface with the ambient air.
- a recess of the pad may be provided so that for a given space the surface in contact with the ambient air of the pad is increased, which facilitates the evaporation of the liquid contained in the pad.
- the buffer is attached to a dispensing nozzle.
- the dispensing nozzle is preferably an assembly attached to the reservoir, comprising in particular an upper casing disposed around the liquid dispensing orifice, the buffer is fixed on this upper envelope, around the dispensing orifice.
- the buffer is substantially axisymmetric shape. It fits easily on the cap, near the expulsion form of the residual liquid, or around the tip.
- the device is a device for the distribution of liquid in the form of drops, comprising means for forming drops, the expulsion form being substantially complementary to these drop forming means.
- the drop forming means preferably has a substantially conical shape diverging outwardly of the device. This embodiment is particularly advantageous because the expulsion form makes it possible to reduce the dead volume formed by the drop-forming means while delimiting with the drop-forming means, at least partially, an escape route. residual liquid. Thus, the dose of the drops distributed has a volume and a concentration more reproducible.
- the device comprises a valve that can take a liquid release position and a liquid blocking position, the expulsion form constituting a form of immobilization of the valve in the liquid blocking position when the cap is mounted on the device .
- the expulsion form constituting a form of immobilization of the valve in the liquid blocking position when the cap is mounted on the device .
- the buffer is not in contact with the valve. There is therefore little liquid in contact with the valve in the case where the buffer contains liquid.
- the buffer and / or the complementary form comprises an antimicrobial agent.
- the antimicrobial agent makes it possible to destroy a portion of the microorganisms that could develop downstream of the dispensing opening and contaminate the next dose of product that would be delivered.
- the antimicrobial agent may for example be silver-based or contain a disinfectant or a biocidal agent.
- the most hydrophilic material comprises an antimicrobial agent and the least hydrophilic material is free of antimicrobial agent.
- the liquid is sucked towards the most hydrophilic material where antimicrobial agents prevent the development of bacteria.
- the risk that antimicrobial agents may be contained with the next drop of liquid delivered by the device is reduced because the antibacterial agent is not included in the least hydrophilic material that is closest to the drop forming means.

- the bottom 56 is delimited by a frustoconical surface 60 and comprises, on its horizontal wall, orifices 62 for the passage of air, of which there are four in this example.
- the inner casing 44 further comprises means 64, 66, 68 for locking the device 10 in ventilation configuration.
- These locking means comprise, in this embodiment, notches 64, elastic tabs 66, and ramps 68, in this case two notches 64, two tabs 66 and two ramps 68.
- the cylindrical skirt 58 comprises stops 70 , in this case two, extending in a longitudinal plane so as to form a stop in the transverse direction for the outer casing 42, and thus allow the cap 16 to be screwed onto the dispensing nozzle 14.
- the cylindrical skirt 58 further comprises stops 72, said longitudinal retaining stops, so as to form a stop in the longitudinal direction, for the retention of the outer casing 42 on the inner casing 44 in the longitudinal direction.
- the longitudinal retention stops 72 extend mainly in a transverse oblique plane and also comprise a horizontal part.
- the cylindrical skirt 58 carries on its free end a frangible ring 74 of the device 10, first opening indicator, to ensure that the device has not been used before its first use.

- the reservoir 12 filled with the liquid to be dispensed, it comes to screw the assembly formed by the nozzle 14 and the cap 16 on the neck of the reservoir.
- the device 10 is ready to be used.
- FIG. 5A shows the outer casing 42 in wire mode so as to present the interaction between the elements of the inner casing 44 with the elements of the outer casing 42.
- the ring 80 of the outer casing 42 cooperates with the frustoconical surface 60 of the inner casing 44, so that there is no possible communication between the pad 48 and the outside of the device 10 , as can be seen in Figure 1.
- the ring 80 thus forms, with the surface 60, a closure means of the evaporation path 90.
- the ring 80 is slightly deformed and a mechanical sealing of the ring 80 on the conical surface 60 is achieved.
- the evaporation path 90 of the residual liquid is thus closed.
- this evaporation is also limited by the mechanical clamping between the inner envelope 44 and the support 18 which define a closed volume in which there is no renewal of air as the device is in storage configuration.
- this evaporation is also limited because the air diffusion member 36 does not substantially pass liquid molecule, even in the form of steam, to this closed volume.
- expulsion form 46 of the inner casing 44 cooperates with the valve 20, more particularly with the drop forming means 50, and thus blocks the valve 20 in the liquid blocking position.
- the user unscrews the removable cap 16. He tightens the outer envelope 42 in one hand and the reservoir 12 in the other hand. It rotates the outer casing 42 relative to the inner casing 44.
- the stops 86 are then guided by the ramps 68 and the rotational movement applied by the user to the device 10 generates a longitudinal translational movement of the casing outer 42 relative to the inner casing 44. Arrived at the end of the ramps 68, the stops 86 cooperate with the notches 64 to form first locking means of the device 10 in ventilation configuration.
- the notches 84 of the outer casing 42 move relative to the elastic tabs 66, which they force, at the end of rotation, by deformation of the tabs 66, so that the notches 84 are are found in abutment against the end of the tabs 66.
- the notches 84 and the tabs 66 thus form second locking means of the device 10 in ventilation configuration.
- the valve 20 moves from the liquid lock position to the liquid release position, a drop is formed in the drop forming means 50.
- the drop reaches a predetermined volume, is released from the valve 20, for example to go into the eye of the user.
- valve 20 resumes its liquid blocking position.
- the user wishes to deliver an additional drop, it deforms the reservoir 12 again until delivery of the drop.
- the locking means 64, 66, 84, 86 prevent the displacement of the outer casing 42 with respect to the inner casing 44. It is therefore understood that that it is possible to go from the hermetic sealing configuration of the device 10 to the ventilation configuration but that the opposite is not possible. Thus, it is ensured that once the device 10 has been used at least once, the evaporation path 90 of the residual liquid is always open.
- the locking means 64, 66, 84, 86 are therefore permanent and non-removable.
- the expulsion form 46 of the valve cooperates with the valve 20.
- this expulsion form 46 has grooves 92 which define with the valve 20 a channel of the valve. evacuation 52 of the residual liquid contained in the drop-forming means 50. This channel 52 makes it possible to evacuate the residual liquid to the buffer 48, in which it is absorbed.

It differs from the previous embodiments in that the cap 16 has only one envelope having air passages 62. The rest of the device 10 is in accordance with what has been described above. Before first use, that is to say in hermetic sealing configuration, the device 10 comprises a cap 96 which closes the air passage holes 62 of the cap 16; it therefore closes the evaporation path 90 of the residual liquid between the buffer 48 and the outside of the device 10.
- this seal 96 also comprises a tab 98 adhering to the cap 16 and the support 18 of the nozzle 14 so that it is not possible to unscrew the cap 16 of the device 10 without removing the cap 96 and thus open the evaporation path 90 between the buffer 48 and the outside of the device 10.

- the liquid that is expelled by the expulsion form 46 to the buffer 48 is preferentially absorbed by the more absorbent hydrophilic material 48A. Due to the contact between the two hydrophilic materials 48A, 48B, the liquid absorbed by the least hydrophilic material 48B is sucked by the most hydrophilic material 48A. The residual liquid thus stagnates little or nothing in the least hydrophilic material 48B which is closest to the drop-forming means 50. The risk of a possible accumulation of liquid in the vicinity of the drop-forming means 50 is thus reduced. .
- the less absorbent and therefore the least hydrophilic material 48B may advantageously comprise a hydrophobic material.
- the material 48B is hydrophobic and absorbent and it passes the liquid located upstream of the dispensing opening 22 to the most hydrophilic material 48A and this, thanks to the suction created by the material 48A, the most hydrophilic and downstream of the least hydrophilic material with respect to the drop forming means 50.
- the material 48B is hydrophobic, the liquid absorbed in the material 48B can not return to the dispensing opening 22. The dispensing opening 22 is therefore relatively dry.

- the residual liquid in the droplet forming means 50 after dispensing a drop of liquid is absorbed. by the absorbent material of the expulsion form 46 and is then sucked by the hydrophilic material of the pad 48. The liquid is thus drained to the pad 48 through the absorbent material of the expulsion form 46.
- the most hydrophilic material i.e. the material of the tampon 48
- the material of the tampon 48 may comprise an antimicrobial agent, such as silver ions (Ag +) and the least hydrophilic material, that is, the material of the expulsion form 46 located downstream from the material of the pad 48 may not include an antimicrobial agent.

- the web 110 may for example be reported by partial bonding or partial welding of the web on the pad 48 and / or the expulsion form 46.
- Figure 14 shows a buffer 48 and an expulsion form 46 according to a seventh embodiment of the device 10.
- the expulsion form 46 is made of absorbent material.
