Definitions

  • the aerosol is formed of fine droplets of various sizes, and takes approximately the shape of a cone which is characterized by its angle, the more or less oval shape of the section perpendicular to the axis of distribution and by the distribution of the droplets In this section.
  • the characteristics of the aerosol are dependent on the orientation of the nozzle in the push button. Since this orientation can not be imposed on the assembly lines, the result is that randomly different aerosols are obtained with dispensing systems comprising the same nozzle - push button assembly.
  • the body 1 also has an annular housing 5 of axis perpendicular to that of the mounting housing 3, the downstream end of the distribution path opening into said housing.
  • the spray nozzle which is mounted in the housing 5 is described below, said nozzle comprising a body provided with a mounting chimney 6 which is delimited by a front wall 7 in which a dispensing orifice 8 is formed.
  • the chimney 6 has an internal geometry which is cylindrical of revolution.
  • the nozzle is arranged collinearly to the axis of the housing 5 to allow lateral spraying of the liquid relative to the body 1 of the push button.
  • the grooves 12 are arranged angularly so that each downstream end of a groove 12 is equidistant from the two upstream ends of the channel 10 which are adjacent to it on both sides.
  • the liquid fractions feeding each of the channels 10 have traveled exactly the same path along the annular conduit 11, so as to have the same dynamic characteristics.
