Definitions

  • the invention relates to an application device with a container for an application medium, a valve element which closes the filling opening of the container and which has a resilient valve piston, and with an application member projecting beyond the front of the application device.
  • Such application devices are used, for example, as marking pens, as devices for pharmaceutical or cosmetic applications, as writing or painting brushes, or the like. applied.
  • a 'applicator device is located in the container in which the applicator device application medium to a high or low viscosity fluid, with or without color pigments, a paint, a paste or a powder.
  • Applicators of the type mentioned are used in particular for relatively low-viscosity liquids or paints.
  • the resilient valve piston of the valve element closing the filler opening of the container closes the container tightly in the normal rest position, so that an application medium containing a rapidly volatile solvent can be safely stored in the container of such an application device for a long time. So that the valve element securely seals the filling opening of the container, it is necessary that the spring of the valve element cooperating with the valve piston has a sufficient spring force. To open the valve element and to dispense a certain amount of that in the container Application medium to the application member protruding from the front of the application device, it is necessary to overcome the spring force of the spring interacting with the valve piston.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide an applicator of the type mentioned, in which the good application properties of an applicator made of fiber or hair material can be exploited, and with which it is still possible to open the valve element to a certain Hand over the quantity of the order medium in the container to the order body.
  • the applicator member is made of a resilient material and is connected to the valve piston of the valve element by means of a dimensionally stable holding element which has a hole in its front surface for holding the applicator member, the front surface of the holding member being inclined to the longitudinal axis of the applicator device .
  • the application organ can consist of fiber material.
  • the application member consists of hair, which hair can be natural or synthetic hair.
  • the application member in the form of a hair bundle is glued, pressed in, or held in another known manner in the hole of the dimensionally stable holding element.
  • the front surface of the holding element is inclined to the longitudinal axis of the applicator, the application member does not protrude equally far over the front surface of the holding element, so that on the one hand there is good protection of the application member because the application member is completely encompassed by the dimensionally stable holding element.
  • the shape of the application element remains virtually unchanged even after a long period of use of the application device according to the invention.
  • the inclined front surface of the holding element results in a sufficient free length of the application member, which has a positive effect on the application behavior that is possible with such an application device.
  • a further advantage of the application device according to the invention is in particular that the longest section of the dimensionally stable holding element given by the inclined front surface of the holding element can be used to open the valve element if necessary.
  • the applicator with this longest section of the dimensionally stable holding element is pressed against a base so that the spring force of the spring element interacting with the valve piston can be overcome.
  • the section protruding freely over the inclined front surface of the holding element is hardly stressed, so that the shape of the application member remains unchanged.
  • the application member can protrude in the axial direction of the application device over the longest surface line of the holding element.
  • the hole in the holding element is designed as a blind hole in which the application member is fastened.
  • the holding element can, for example, be a plastic injection-molded part, which can be connected in one piece to the valve piston.
  • the holding element and the valve piston can be manufactured separately and to be assembled after their manufacture.
  • the hole in the holding element is designed as a through hole which is connected to transverse holes in the vicinity of the valve piston, and the valve element on the side of the transverse holes opposite the valve piston has a seal which rests on the outer jacket of the holding element.
  • the outer surface of the dimensionally stable holding element remains free of the application medium at all times because the application medium, which attaches to the outer surface of the holding element, is stripped off again by the seal.
  • Such an application device is particularly suitable for a very thin application medium.
  • the application member must of course have sufficient porosity or sufficient capillary properties in order to be able to convey the application medium through the through hole and through the application member.
  • the holding element can be designed as a sleeve which is attached to the valve piston. This sleeve can be made of plastic or metal.
  • FIGS 1 and 2 show an applicator 10, the container 12 is shown only in sections.
  • the filling opening 14 of the container 12 is delimited by a mouthpiece 16 which is formed with an external thread 18.
  • a valve element 20, which closes the filling opening 14, is arranged on the mouthpiece 16 of the container 12.
  • the valve element 20 has a cup-shaped valve housing 22, an end plug 24, a valve piston 26 and a spring element 28, which is designed as a helical compression spring, and which is arranged between the bottom 30 of the cup-shaped valve housing 22 and the valve body 32 of the valve piston 26.
  • the valve body 32 is tight against the end plug 24, so that the application medium 34 located in the container 12 is prevented from the container 12 through the openings 36 provided in the valve housing 22 into the valve interior 38 and from there between the end plug 24 and the valve body 32 to flow into the annular outlet space 40.
  • the annular outlet space 40 is delimited by a dimensionally stable holding element 42 and by a mouthpiece 44 which has an internal thread corresponding to the thread 18 of the mouthpiece 16 of the container 12.
  • the dimensionally stable holding element 42 is connected to the valve body 32 of the valve piston 26. It has a hole 46 in which an application member 48 made of fiber or hair material is fastened.
  • the dimensionally stable holding element 42 has a front surface 50 which is inclined to the longitudinal axis 52 of the application device 10. To protect the application member 48 protruding from the front surface 50 of the holding element 42, a cap 54 is used, which is attached to the mouthpiece 44 of the application device 10.
  • the spring element 28 in the form of a helical compression spring presses the valve body 32 in the normal rest position of the applicator 10 against the valve seat surface 56 of the valve plug 24.
  • the cap 54 is removed from the mouthpiece 44 and the applicator is pressed against a base such that the Section 58 of the holding element 42, the surface line 60 of which is longest compared to the other surface lines due to the inclined configuration of the front surface 50, is pressed against a base.
  • the application member 48 projecting beyond the front surface 50 is deformed comparatively little or not at all and at the same time is moved with the holding element of the valve body 32 in the direction of the bottom 30 of the valve housing 22, so that the spring element 28 is mechanically tensioned even more .
  • the spring element 28 is mechanically relaxed again, so that the valve body 32 bears tightly against the valve seat surface 56 again.
  • FIG. 2 shows a longitudinal section through a second embodiment of the applicator, the same parts being designated by the same reference numerals given in Figure 1.
  • the essential difference between the application device shown in FIG. 1 and the application device shown in FIG. 2 is that the application device shown in FIG. placed application device, the holding element 42 has a through hole 62, which in the vicinity of the Ventilkol bens 26, ie in the vicinity of the valve body 32 has transverse holes 64 which are connected to the through hole 62.
  • the valve plug 24 ' has a seal 66 which is designed as a rib seal and which bears on the outer jacket 68 of the dimensionally stable holding element 42.
  • An application device as shown in FIG. 2, is particularly suitable for relatively low-viscosity application media.
