Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • spray head pumps for the manual application and atomization of portioned liquid quantities which are removed from a storage container.
  • such pumps In order to work, such pumps generally require a greater pressure to be applied manually than is to be exerted by the consumer when using spray cans with propellant gas. The force to be applied is even higher with double-acting pumps. In these, not only the pushing down of a working piston leads to atomization of a liquid, but also the restoring movement that follows after being pressed down against a spring (DE-PS 32 46 442).
  • actuators which operate according to a lever principle.
  • a load arm is actuated manually and a force arm transfers the increased force to a spray head.
  • Such a device is described both in DE-PS 25 58 645 and in FR-PS 2 398 196.
  • a disadvantage of the known actuating devices for reducing the force to be exerted by the consumer on spray head pumps is the excessive arm length. This results either in a longer arm, in order to have a favorable, i.e. large ratio of arm length to Achieve load arm length, or the force to be exerted by the consumer is comparatively higher and the force arm correspondingly shorter.
  • the length of the arm is structurally limited. If a lever arm protrudes significantly from an attachment, this has a disadvantageous effect on the packing density for the storage and transport of a storage container equipped with it.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a generic device with an actuating button acting on the lever principle on a spray head pump and the spray head pump with respect to their position in a storage container in such a way that the actuating button acts on the pump with a shortened arm length.
  • the force to be applied can be reduced with the same lever length or the lever length can be shortened with the same force.
  • the actuation button is rotatably supported by pins.
  • a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention is achieved according to claim 3 in that the actuation button and the attachment are designed in one piece by means of a film hinge joint, which enables cost-effective production.
  • a securing element for the actuation button is provided according to claims 4 and 5.
  • attachment and element are designed in one piece.
  • a particularly great advantage when using the device according to the invention results if, according to claim 7, a double-acting spray head pump is used.
  • an embodiment of the attachment as a protective cap (claim 8), it can be produced using less material than an attachment which is additionally provided with a protective cap.
  • the protective cap is advantageously attached to the storage container according to claim 9 by means of a snap connection.
  • the attachment 1 is mounted on a cylindrical storage container 2 with a spray head pump 4 offset parallel to the vertical center line 3 of the attachment 1.
  • the actuation button 5 on the attachment 1 touches the spray head 6 of the spray head pump 4 on the load side with the mandrel 5a (FIG. 1a, FIG. 2) in one-arm levering (FIG. 1a).
  • the stroke of the spray head 6 is structurally determined by the pump.
  • the nozzle 7 installed in it is aligned for the passage of a spray cone 14 through an opening 8 in the attachment 1.
  • the opening is designed in the form of a rectangular area expanded by semicircular areas on the horizontal edges (FIG. 3).
  • the radius of the semicircle corresponds approximately to the radius of the circular area which is created by a cut perpendicular to the cone axis in the passage of the spray cone 14 through the wall of the attachment.
  • the actuation button 5 is secured with respect to an actuation by an element 9 attached to its force-side end (FIG. 1a).
  • This element 9 is formed from the same plastic as the attachment 1 and connected to it and the actuating button 5 by means of film-like plastic webs 10 (FIG. 1a, FIG. 4).
  • a similar connection exists in the form of a joint 11 between the actuation button 5 and the area of the attachment 1 extending above the opening 8 (FIGS. 1a, 1b and 2).
  • the hinge 11 represents the film hinge 11A between the attachment 1 and the actuation button 5
  • the plastic webs 10 are predetermined breaking points for removing the element 9 serving as a first-time use indicator and transport lock on the attachment 1 after the element 9 has been broken off
  • the actuation button 5 is pressed down into a position determined by the stroke of the spray head 6 (FIG. 1b). For the lowest position, the same conditions apply as for the upper position with regard to the geometry of the lower region of the opening 8.
  • Attachment 1, actuating button 5 with mandrel 5a and securing element 9 can be manufactured as a one-piece component, for example by spraying. This is also possible in the design of the button attachment on the attachment 1 in the form of bearings 12 for pins 13 on the actuation button 5 if an element 9 is used (FIG. 3). After completion of the complete component, the pins 13 are latched into the bearings 12 and engage there.
  • the geometry of the attachment 1 shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 also allows a simple pressing of the actuation button 5 by a finger of the hand of the user holding the storage container 2, which finger is brought up perpendicular to it.
