Definitions
- the invention relates to a container according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Containers of the type mentioned are widely used for aerosols, especially in the field of cosmetics and body and hair care.
- the US 3,880,187 a generic pressure vessel and deals with the problem of reducing the risk of explosions by the propellant contained in the container.
- the container has a discharge device in the form of a plug, which is arranged in the bottom of the container. Upon reaching a certain internal pressure in the container, this plug is ejected, so that the blowing agent can escape.
- this can only be done at extremely high internal pressures, as for the ejection of the plug in the US 3,880,187 a deformation of the container bottom is required.
- the discharge of the blowing agent could be made independently of the internal pressure by a user, for example, before the container is placed in the waste.
- the JP 09142552 A a container having in its bottom a plug with a closed passage opening. By opening the closed passage opening the propellant can be drained. However, that is this requires an aid such as a pair of scissors.
- the invention is based on the idea not to bring about the release of the propellant by a strong deformation or damage of components of the container, but by a targeted relative movement.
- the invention provides that in a generic container, the discharge device comprises a first and a second element, wherein at least the second element has at least one passage opening, and wherein the passage opening by displacement and / or rotation of the second element with respect to the first Element and / or the container body can be brought into a discharge position in which the passage opening connects the interior of the container body with the outside of the container body
- deflation can be achieved by mere displacement or twisting motion so that a user can easily perform the deflation operation.
- the second element moves during displacement or rotation in the discharge position in the direction of the interior of the container body. This will ensure that high pressures inside the container body can not lead to an undesirable triggering of the discharge device.
- the container further comprises holding means, which is a displacement or rotation of the second element with respect to the first element to the interior of the Hinder container body.
- holding means may for example be formed by friction or engagement elements which are arranged between the first and the second element.
- the first and the second element for example, also be connected to each other via a predetermined breaking point.
- At least the second element has stop means which counteract a displacement and / or rotation.
- the stop means are supported on the container body, so that an undesired or undesired operation of the discharge device can be prevented in an efficient manner.
- the first and the second element can be designed in the context of the present invention in various ways. According to one embodiment of the invention, however, it is provided that the first element has a lower rigidity than the second element. As a result, the first element can advantageously perform a sealing function on the discharge opening, and it is particularly preferred that the first element consists of an elastomer, for example of rubber or the like. In contrast, it has proved to be advantageous for the second element to produce this from an injection-molded plastic. This allows the second Element easily provided with the passage opening according to the invention.
- At least the second element comprises actuating means.
- the actuating means are selected from at least one notch, at least one projection and at least one lever.
- the second element via a thread with the first element is engaged. This makes it possible to achieve a relative displacement between the two elements during a rotation of the second element in a particularly simple and effective manner.
- the second element has a tip in order to penetrate the first element.
- the first element does not have to have a passage opening from the outset, but instead can be designed as a completely sealing plug, which is completely pierced only when the discharge device is actuated by the second element.
- a particularly advantageous application for the container according to the invention is when the container body has at least two chambers in its interior, wherein in a chamber adjacent to the discharge device preferably a blowing agent is provided.
- the propellant is not expelled during use, but merely serves to expel the active ingredient.
- a large amount of blowing agent remains in the Container, so that a simple and effective deflation of the propellant is of particular advantage.
- Fig. 1 shows schematically a sectional view of a container 1 as a preferred embodiment of the invention.
- the container is used to hold aerosols, such as those in the Range of (hair) cosmetics, but also with numerous other applications are used.
- the container 1 has a substantially cylindrical container body 2, which has on its upper side an ejection opening 4, in which an ejection valve 8, for example an atomizer, is provided.
- an ejection valve 8 for example an atomizer
- a discharge opening 6 On the opposite, lower side of the container body has a discharge opening 6, in which a discharge device 10 is provided, which will be discussed in more detail below.
- the present container 1 is a two-chamber container which has in its interior two chambers 2 ', 2 "which are separated by a membrane or foil 3.
- a propellant is provided in the chamber 2" adjoining the outlet means 10 while in the other chamber 2 'is provided effetsprühendes agent as an aerosol.
- FIGS. 2 to 6 Preferred embodiments of the discharge device 10 according to the invention are described below with reference to FIGS. 2 to 6.
- the figures show the discharge device 10 in each case in an initial position and in a discharge position.
- FIG. 1 A first preferred embodiment of the discharge device 10 according to the invention is shown schematically in FIG. This has a first element 12 which is inserted into the discharge opening 6 and is formed for example by a rubber stopper. With the rubber stopper positively connected (via a barb) is a second element 14 which is arranged on the container body outside and in the present embodiment, two through holes 16, each having a deflection 16 '. The second element 16 is supported on the outside of the container body 8 via an elastic stop plate 18.
- the initial state (closed state) of the discharge device 10 is shown in Fig. 2 above.
- a user may press with a finger or a suitable object on the lower surface of the second member 14 so as to push the first member 12 together with a portion of the second member 14 through the vent opening 6 such that it engages and the passageways 16 bring about a connection between the interior of the container body 2 and the exterior of the container body 2.
- This discharge position is shown in Fig. 2 below. In this way, in the chamber 2 "existing propellant can be discharged through the through holes 16 to the outside.
- the elastic stopper plate 18 may have predetermined breaking points to shear off at a predetermined pressing force.
- FIG. 1 A second embodiment of the discharge device 10 according to the invention is shown schematically in FIG. This has in principle the same basic components as the described with reference to FIG. 2, the first embodiment.
- FIG. 10 A third preferred embodiment of the discharge device 10 according to the invention is shown schematically in FIG.
- the first element 12 is again formed as a rubber stopper which completely seals the discharge opening 6 in the initial state (bottom in FIG. 4) and initially has no passage opening.
- the second member 14 is provided with an external thread 14 'and a tip 14 "embedded in the first member 12. Further, the second member 14 has actuating means 20, for example in the form of a projection, with the fingers can be grasped.
- the projection 20 is gripped with the fingers and the second element 14 is rotated about an axis of the passage opening 16.
- the tip 14 '' penetrates into the first element due to the action of the thread 14 'or draws this to itself until finally via the passage opening 16 a connection between the interior and the exterior of the container body is brought about.
- a fourth preferred embodiment of the discharge device 10 according to the invention is shown schematically in FIG.
- the first element is formed by a rubber stopper, which is, however, penetrated from the outset by the second element 14, which is formed like a needle in the present embodiment.
- the passage opening 16 in the present embodiment is designed such that the outlet opening of the passage opening 16 emerges temporally from the needle 14 at a location within the first element 12 (in the initial state).
- the needle 14 is provided at its outer end with a lever 20 which is supported on the outside of the container body. Once the lever 20 is pivoted with respect to the container body, the needle 14 is pulled out of the first member 12 until the bore of the through hole 16 exposed and thus a connection between the inside and the outside of the container body is brought about.
- FIG. 10 A fifth preferred embodiment of the discharge device 10 according to the invention is shown schematically in FIG. This corresponds largely to the second embodiment shown in FIG. 3, but in contrast thereto has a notch 20 into which suitable actuation means such as a screwdriver or a coin 22 can be inserted to allow easy actuation or unlocking of the discharge means. for example, a quarter turn with a coin and simultaneous pressing.
