  • the vial breakage body 20 has at least one dispensing tip 32 in fluidic communication with said open cavity 22 and suitable for conveying the substance coming out of the vial outside in a calibrated manner.
  • “Calibrated” dispensing or distribution of the substance is understood to mean that depending on the substance, its density and application for which the device is intended, it is possible to choose the structure and/or material constituting the dispensing tip in such a way as to calibrate the release of the substance in the desired quantity and/or time for a particular use.
  • the dispensing tip 32 comprises a release element 34 housed in a respective element seat 36 made in the breakage body 20.
  • the material constituting the release element 34 is a porous material.

  • the release element 34 is made in fabric.
  • the substance coming out of the vial flows by gravity to the dispensing tip 32.
  • the dispensing tip 32 once breakage of the breakable tip has been provoked, to obtain the release of the substance it is sufficient to incline the device away from the horizontal.
  • the seat 36 of the release element is coaxial and in fluidic communication with said open cavity 22 of the vial breakage body. Consequently, the dispensing device 1 has a very compact and manageable form, with dimensions comparable to those of a syringe. Once breakage of the vial has been provoked, the dispensing device can be gripped like a pen to dispense the substance on the surface to be treated.
  • said element seat 36 is a substantially cylindrical shape.
  • Blocking teeth 38 may be made on the inner surface to retain the release element 34. The latter may then be advantageously inserted in the relative seat 36 simply by pressure. For example, an end portion may be left to project from the element seat 36 to facilitate not just the dispensing but also the extraction of the release element 34 should it require replacing.
  • said seat 24 has a bottom open towards the dispenser means 30 so as to make the passage of the substance to be dispensed from the vial to the dispensing means as wide as possible.
  • a filter grid 40 of the residues deriving from breakage of the vial is positioned between the open cavity 22 ⁇ and the dispensing means 30 .
  • said filter grid 40 forms an inner support wall for the release element 34.
  • filter grid 40 being represented in the drawings as a fitted element, in one embodiment, said filter element 40 is made in one piece with the vial breakage body 20, for example by moulding.
  • the distance between the tip receiving seat 24 and the side wall delimiting the open cavity 22 is less than the diameter of the breakable tip 4. This way, it is not possible for the tip 4 of the vial to mistakenly stick between the tip receiving seat 24 and said side wall.
  • the vial-holder body 10 and the breakage body 20 are provided with axial blocking means which reciprocally engage when the tip 4 of the vial 2 is inserted in the respective tip receiving seat 24 to axially block the vial-holder body in such position, preventing such from accidentally coming out of the breakage body 20.
  • said axial blocking means snap engage and may be made for example with an annular groove 42 made in the inner wall of the breakage body 20 and with an annular prominence 44 which extends from the side wall of the vial-holder body 20.
  • the vial- holder body 10 may be provided with an abutment element 46, such as a step or an undercut, which the rim defining the open cavity 22 of the breakage body 20, engages in.
  • the blocking means 42, 44 are distanced so as not to interact and to permit the vial- holder body 10 to be rotated until the tip 4 positions itself in the respective seat 24 and then inserted further in the open cavity 22.
  • the dispensing device is suitable for receiving and causing . the breakage of two vials 2 of the .same type described above.
  • Such device 100 is for example suitable for dispensing a mixture of two components, each contained in a relative vial 2.
  • two vial-holder seats 12 diametrically opposite to the rotation axis X of the vial-holder body 10 are made in the vial-holder body.
  • two tip receiving seats 24 diametrically opposite each other are made in the open cavity 22 in the open cavity 22 in the open cavity 22 in the open cavity 22 in the open cavity 22 in the open cavity 22 in the open cavity 22 in the open cavity 22 in the open cavity 22 in the open cavity 22 in the open cavity 22 in the open cavity 22 .
  • a stop element 50 is made between said tip receiving seats 24 suitable for preventing an incorrect positioning of the breakable tips 4 outside the respective tip receiving seats 24.
  • said stop element 50 prevents the tips from mistakenly sticking between the seats rather than inside them when inserting the vial in an angular position staggered by 90° to the axis passing through the two tip receiving seats 24.
  • said stop element is formed of a diametrical cross-member 50 which extends orthogonally to said axis which passes through the two tip receiving seats. The upper side of said diametrical cross-member, or side facing the vial-holder body 10, is coplanar to the upper rim of the tip receiving seats 24.
  • the diameter of the vial-holder body 10 and therefore of the open cavity 22 of the breakage body 20 being greater in this case than in the case of a single vial, and wishing to maintain the same dimensions of the dispensing means 30 as for the dispenser device 1 ⁇ for a single vial, it is advantageous to make the tip receiving seats 24 in a conical portion 20' of the breakage body, which forms a sort of funnel facing towards the dispensing tip 32. This way, not only is the correct flow of the substances contained in the two vials towards the dispensing tip favoured, but so is a mixture of said substances before being deposited on the surface to be treated.
  • the dispensing device 200 is suitable for receiving and causing the breakage of two vials 202 of the type having a substantially cylindrical body 203 of a greater diameter but lesser height than the vials 2 described above, and a dispensing tip 204 thinner than the body.
  • the dispensing device 200 differs from the double vial embodiment 100 described above, in the shape of the stop element 250 as well as obviously, in it proportions, which are suitable for this different type of vial 202.
  • said stop element is formed of a curved wall 250 which extends between the tip receiving seats 24.
  • the upper side of said curved wall 250 is coplanar to the rim defining the top of the tip receiving seats 24. Consequently, if the tips of the vials are initially positioned not coaxially to the respective seats, said seats rest on the curved wall 250 and can be made to slide along said wall to reach the correct angular position.
  • a removable protective cap 60 may be envisaged to cover and protect the dispensing tip 32.
  • the dispensing device may advantageously be made by moulding, therefore with very limited production and assembly costs.
  • both the vial-holder body and the breakage body may be made in a single piece in plastic material.
  • the dispensing device proposed may therefore be used for innumerable applications where a substance contained in a vial, or a mixture of substances contained in respective vials, need to be distributed in a controlled manner. From a functional point of view, the different applications may be achieved simply by choosing the appropriate porosity of the dispensing tip.
  • the dispensing device according to the invention makes it possible to avoid manual contact with the vial at the moment of breakage.
