Definitions

  • the invention relates to an actuating device for pump atomizers with a central Spray head with a cap that can be fixed on the pump sprayer and has cutouts for two operating levers pivotably arranged in one plane, each articulated are connected to one another with a connecting piece, the connecting piece has a center piece in contact with the spray head.
  • Such an actuator for pump atomizers is known from US-A-3 726 445 known.
  • the spray nozzle is provided with an axial nozzle extension.
  • On A lower projection of the nozzle extension is the one of the cross section of the Middle part with corresponding opening pushed on, the connecting pieces articulated on both sides for articulated connection by means of Material thinning with the lower ends of operating levers.
  • the free Ends of the operating levers must be inserted into abutments that are on one the pump atomizer can be fixed cap.
  • the cap has a central one Through opening for the nozzle extension and two lateral ones Opposing slots from which are firmly connected to the operating levers Handles stick out.
  • Pressing the two handles against each other turns the nozzle in Connected centerpiece due to the support of the operating lever in the Cap on the one hand and their articulated connection via the connecting pieces with the The center piece, on the other hand, is moved down and a spraying process is triggered.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an actuating device for pump atomizers to create a central spray head that controls the operation of the spray head in terms of Effort and effort and manageability eased and a simple Assembly and assembly possible.
  • a pump sprayer (1) with a central spray head (2) with a Spray nozzle (3) has an attachable cap (4).
  • the cap (4) is on the pump atomizer (1) in any known manner attachable, e.g. B. as an annular tongue and groove connection.
  • a lever arrangement is provided within the cap (4) consisting of two operating levers that can be swiveled in one plane (5, 6) and a connector connected to them (7) exists.
  • the operating levers are (5) and (6) designed as an articulated lever and over a common joint (8) connected to each other.
  • the levers are made of a plastic material, so that the joint (8) by thinning the material in the form of a film hinge can be generated.
  • the exemplary embodiment is at the break points (9, 10) of the operating lever (5, 6) the connecting piece (7) articulated.
  • the connector (7) has an approximately V-shaped according to FIG. 1 Shape up, the center piece (11) of a projecting tip forms.
  • the V-shaped connector (7) shown can be so be carried out that the center piece (11) is rigid and the both legs (12, 13) are flexible. But it can also be so be formed that the legs (12, 13) as rigid links are executed and by a joint as a central piece (11) against each other are pivotally connected to each other.
  • the connecting piece (7) can also be designed as a bendable curved part be and z. B. consist of a curved leaf spring.
  • the arch part can be of any design, but it must, at Pressure on its ends only deflects its centerpiece in one direction - towards the spray head.
  • the actuator works as follows (see Fig.2): Press in the direction of the arrows on the operating lever (5, 6), e.g. B. with your thumb and index finger Hand, so you press them together and it changes the quadrilateral joint, as the joint (8) against the holder serving cap (4) supports so that the center piece (11) moved down and so the pumping movement on the spray head (2) to Spraying the liquid in the pump sprayer triggers.
  • the End position d. H.
  • the connector (7) can, for. B. by means of snap connections with the operating levers serving as a joint (5, 6) can be connected, but also in one piece via material thinners (e.g. a film hinge) with the operating levers (5, 6).
  • FIG. 3 shows a pump sprayer (1) with a central spray head (2) and spray nozzle (3) and a cap (4).
  • the cap (4) points at the bottom End an inner ring projection (14) which in an annular groove (15) on the pump atomizer (1) can be inserted.
  • the cap (4) has two opposite cutouts (16) for the passage of the operating levers (5, 6) and their Serve pivoting, and a spray opening, not shown and in its upper part two wall parts (17), one Limit gutter on.
  • the lever arrangement consists of two articulated levers (5, 6) to which an upper piece (19) with a radius of curvature is connected, the inside radius of curvature in the cap head (18) corresponds.
  • a flange closes at the free end of the upper piece (19) (20), at the lower end via a hinge piece (21) the connecting piece (7) is articulated.
  • the middle piece (11) the connecting piece (7) is designed as a curved part and a joint.
  • the ends of the connecting piece (7) in the contact area of the levers (5, 6) will. If you press the levers (5, 6) against each other, the pressure is immediately transferred to the connector (7), whereby the center piece (11) moves downward evasively and the pumping movement is triggered, the cap head (18) serves as an abutment.
