Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for the selective distribution of different liquid products.
  • the invention relates to the selective distribution of different products, separately or jointly, from a single packaging unit to several independent tanks.
  • Known dispensers generally comprise a reservoir equipped in particular with a pump or valve-type product sampling member, provided with a spray head that can be actuated by axial manual support.
  • the document FR-A-2,733,800 presents a push-button device deprived of any possibility of rotation, the selection is effected by a separate member.
  • the present invention aims to solve these technical problems satisfactorily.
  • a device of the above type characterized in that it comprises a single push-button whose lower face is provided with a series of axial bushings that can selectively cover a bushing. or several distribution heads by rotation and angular setting of said push button on a central bearing secured to the tanks.
  • the underside of said push button carries a central shaft which can be rotatably engaged in said bearing and whose free end protrudes beyond the bearing being provided with locking lugs. angular for cooperating with complementary retaining members provided on said bearing.
  • said shaft is housed in the center of a helical spring disposed between the underside of the pushbutton and said bearing so as to avoid any interference with the distribution heads during the rotation of the pushbutton.
  • the free end of the central shaft is provided with a frustoconical element whose largest diameter is greater than the diameter of the shaft by delimiting a peripheral shoulder on which are arranged the wedge pins.
  • said frustoconical element is split axially to allow its elastic compression and its passage in said bearing.
  • the bearing is provided with fingers forming abutments for at least one positioning rib extending from the underside of the push button.
  • said rib is contiguous to the central shaft.
  • said bearing is fixed inside a hood mounted on the tanks and whose upper face is flush with the upper face of the push button.
  • the upper face of the push button comprises an indexing element intended to coincide by rotation of said push button with position marks formed on the upper face of the cover.
  • the push-button comprises a series of four sockets, two of which respectively correspond to the isolated activation of a first head and a second head while the other two correspond to the simultaneous activation of the two heads.
  • the device of the invention makes it possible to ensure, with a single push button, both the programming of the distribution mode, as well as the actuation and implementation of the distribution.
  • This device can be applied to a dispenser assembly containing two or more products.
  • the structure of this device is particularly simple, easy to achieve and therefore economical.
  • This device fits very well technically and aesthetically to different types of packaging.
  • the device of the invention is intended to ensure the selective distribution of liquid products (such as drugs, perfumes, cosmetics ”) from several independent tanks R and here, two tanks. Each tank contains a different product that can or must be distributed separately or simultaneously with other products for various reasons (olfactory, biochemical, medical ).
  • Each of the tanks R is equipped with a product sampling member which is here a precompression pump P provided with a nozzle tube G on which a spray head T is mounted.
  • the head T is constituted by a sleeve m axially extending the tube G and delimiting an internal discharge pipe of the product which communicates laterally with a nozzle e opening out via a spray nozzle b.
  • the spray heads T are enclosed here in a cover C extending a housing B in which are housed the tanks R and P pumps.
  • Pressing the head T in the axis of the pump P causes the elastic depression of the tube G and the ejection of a dose of product.
  • the device of the invention comprises a single push button 1, whose lower face is provided with a series of axial sockets 10 and whose upper face 1b is flush with the upper face of the cover C as shown in FIG. figure 2 .
  • the sockets 10 are adapted and intended to cap the dispensing heads T by rotation, then angular setting and pressing the push button in positions where the sockets corresponding to the intended distribution mode are aligned with the heads T.
  • the dimensions and in particular the diameter of the sleeves 10 are determined according to the dimensions of the sleeves m to allow their temporary connection adjusted and removable allowing a satisfactory transmission of support efforts.
  • the device further comprises a bearing 2 arranged centrally along the axis of the push button 1 and which is secured to the tanks R directly or indirectly via a connecting arm 22 attached to the cover C or the housing B.
  • the bearing 2 receives a central shaft 12 carried by the lower face 1a of the pushbutton 1 and extending along its axis.
  • the shaft 12 is intended to be rotatably engaged in the bore 20 of the bearing 2, its free end protruding out of the bore.
  • the end of the shaft 12 is provided with a frustoconical element 13 whose largest diameter is greater than the diameter of the shaft 12 by delimiting a peripheral shoulder 13a on which are arranged angular wedge pins 13b.
  • the angular wedge pins 13b cooperate with complementary retaining members made in the form of teeth 23 formed on the lower edge of the bearing 2 whose outer diameter is substantially equal to the diameter of the shoulder 13a, the frustoconical element 13 is split axially and preferably crosswise to allow its elastic compression and its passage in the bore 20 of the bearing 2 whose diameter is slightly greater than that of the shaft 12.
  • the shaft 12 is housed in the center of a helical spring 3 disposed between the bearing and the lower face of the push button, against which an end turn bears.
  • the lower face 1a is provided with a circular base 12a coaxial with the shaft 12 and whose dimensions are adapted to those of the spring 3 so as to ensure its maintenance.
  • the spring 3 ensures the presence of a clearance between the sockets 10 and the heads T when the pushbutton 1 is rotated so as to avoid an untimely blocking.
  • the upper face of the bearing 2 is provided with fingers 21 forming stops for the rotation of the button 1 by cooperating with at least one positioning rib 11 and here two diametrically opposite lateral ribs which are contiguous to the shaft 12 and which extend to from the underside of the pushbutton 1 or from the base 12a.
  • the ribs 11 are in lateral contact with the turns of the spring 3.
  • FIGS. 3A to 3D represent the various configurations and positions of use of the device of the invention with a two-product distribution set I, II.
  • Pushbutton 1 provides a dual function.
  • the first function of the push button 1 is to select a distribution mode from the three possible modes or the rest mode, by rotating the button about its axis to match an indexing element such as an arrow F carried by the upper face 1b with one of the marks S formed on the upper face of the cover C.
  • the button 1 is wedged angularly, which ensures proper alignment of the dispensing heads T with the sockets 10 corresponding to the selected mode.
  • the push-button can then exert its second function which allows, by manual support on its upper face 1b to actuate the pump or pumps P via the dispensing heads T and the corresponding sleeves 10.
  • This position corresponds to a rest position due to the angular offset of all the sleeves 101 to 104 relative to the heads T1 and T2. Pressing the pushbutton 1 will therefore cause the descent in the vacuum of the sleeves without the heads T1, T2 are activated.
  • This position corresponds to an alignment of the sleeve 103 with one of the heads T, in this case the head T1.
  • a manual press on the button 1 will thus cause the ejection and the distribution of the only product (I).
  • the position represented on the figure 3C corresponds to the mark S3 and ensures the alignment of the sleeve 102 with the head T2. Pressing the button 1 thus allows the distribution of the only product (II).
  • the position represented on the 3D figure corresponds to the S4 mark.
  • Pressing the button 1 allows the joint activation of the two pumps and the simultaneous distribution of the products (I) and (II).
  • the relative positions of the sockets 101 to 104 on the one hand on the button 1 and on the other hand, in relation to the position of the heads are determined from the design of the device.
  • the embodiment of the device shown here is suitable for two products but other embodiments would apply equally well to more than two products by increasing the number of sockets and adjusting their respective positions.
