Definitions

  • pressurized containers of the aerosol can type are constituted by an envelope, most often cylindrical, which contains the product to be dispensed and a propellant under pressure, by a valve allowing the product to be dispensed under the action of the propellant and by a device for actuating the valve by the user. Pressurized containers of the type concerned are described in the preambles of claims 1 or 17
  • the valve is generally placed in the center of a cup crimped on the rim of the cylindrical casing. It is actuated by a device which fits on the pressurized container at the end comprising the valve and which comprises a skirt secured by fitting or screwing with the cylindrical casing, a distribution nozzle connected to the outlet tube of the valve and a valve actuating member, hereinafter called a push button, on which the user presses and which makes it possible to operate the valve and to feed the dispensing nozzle.
  • a device which fits on the pressurized container at the end comprising the valve and which comprises a skirt secured by fitting or screwing with the cylindrical casing, a distribution nozzle connected to the outlet tube of the valve and a valve actuating member, hereinafter called a push button, on which the user presses and which makes it possible to operate the valve and to feed the dispensing nozzle.
  • the pressurized container is operated by holding the valve at the top (position hereinafter called head up) or at the bottom (position below called head down).
  • the valve is generally connected to a dip tube located within the container so as to use the product contained until exhaustion. If the container is used in the wrong position, there is a risk of escaping a fraction of the propellant with no product to dispense or with a small amount of product to dispense.
  • the user therefore risks using the container in the wrong position, which can cause loss of product or loss of propellant.
  • US-A 2954904 discloses capsules intended for pressurized dispenser containers, capsules which are mounted on the stem of a valve.
  • the capsule is associated with a ball which moves in a housing delimited by two parallel cones, and the valve can only be actuated when the ball is in the center of the housing, because the ball then transmits the thrust exerted by the user on the capsule.
  • the present invention relates to a pressurized container comprising a device blocking the press button when the pressurized container is not in the correct position.
  • the present invention relates to a pressurized container comprising a valve and a valve actuation device, the container being provided at one end with a cup crimped on its rim, cup in which the valve is arranged, the actuation device for the valve comprising a push button and forming a cover above the cup and the valve, and comprising a device comprising a movable member circulating under the action of gravity in a channel, said channel being inclined so that when the container is head up or head down, the movable member is at one end or another of the channel, one of the head up or head down positions allowing the actuation of the valve by the device actuation, the other not authorizing it, characterized in that the device is a blocking device, the channel being delimited between a part for transmitting the push on the push button and u no tongue, the transmission part being able to be moved relative to the container and to the tongue, the movable member, in the position not allowing actuation of the valve, cooperating with the actuation device and the cup
  • the present invention also relates to a pressurized container comprising a valve and a valve actuation device, the container being provided at one end with a cup crimped on its rim, cup in which the valve is disposed, the actuation device of the valve comprising a push button and forming a cover above the cup and of the valve, and comprising a device comprising a movable member circulating under the action of gravity in a channel, said channel being inclined so that when the container is head up or head down, the movable member is at one end or another of the channel, one of the head up or head down positions allowing the actuation of the valve by the device actuation, the other not authorizing it, characterized in that the device is a blocking device, the channel being delimited between a part for transmitting the push on the push-button evening and a tongue, the transmission part being able to be moved relative to the container and to the tongue, the movable member, in the position not allowing actuation of the valve, cooperating with the actuation
  • the movable member may be a roller but it is preferably a ball.

  • the blocking system operates as follows when, for example, it is desired that the pressurized container operates in the head-up position.
  • the movable member circulates in the channel under the action of gravity and is placed at the end of the channel located in the vicinity of the valve. If the user presses the push button, the push is made on a rigid assembly formed by the transmission part, the movable member and the tongue, if the latter is rigid, or on a rigid assembly formed by the transmission part, the movable member, the tongue and the rigid surface on which it rests, if the latter is elastic.
  • the transmission part can approach the tongue when the movable member is located at the end of the channel furthest outward.
  • the push button can be pressed and the valve actuated.
  • the operation of the blocking device is the same but the channel is inclined in the opposite direction.
  • the operation is as follows. If the user tries to actuate the container in the head-down position before having actuated it in the head-up position, the locking system operates as described above in the case of a container having to operate head-up.
  • the movable member circulates under the action of gravity towards the end of the channel away from the valve towards the outside
  • the transmission part tends to approach the tongue, presses with its beak on the movable member and forcibly pushes it into the housing provided in the tongue or between the tongue and the bottom and / or the rim of the cup.
  • the movable member is held in its housing by elasticity, and remains blocked there regardless of the position of the container.
  • the movable member can no longer be placed at the end of the channel located in the vicinity of the valve.
