Definitions

  • the object of the present refers, as inferred from its title, to an automatic aerosol dispenser which comprises a motor block with the mechanisms which activate the aerosol, the aerosol itself housed in a cavity in the motor block, and a hood which covers the whole and acts as a stop.
  • the dispenser thus built allows it to change its appearance in a very simple way, simply by replacing the hood by another, which makes it very versatile at a decorative level.
  • the sector of the technique to which it belongs is that of dispensers of substances especially of aerosols.
  • Patent EP2581325 refers to a dispenser where it is the aerosol which moves vertically until the valve presses against a fixed point or stop, with the substance being released.
  • the device comprises a base with the motor block with mechanisms to drive the aerosol, the aerosol itself, and an upper block which includes a spout, as a guide, through which the aerosol moves vertically until stopping against an upper hood which closes the set.
  • a dispensing device which, despite its small base, is highly stable.
  • the proposed invention is a dispenser comprising a base, an aerosol and a hood that covers the assembly where:
  • the hood and the base are inserted vertically, the base being inserted in the hood and being the support of the same while the hood covers the base from its upper position.
  • This drive mechanism causes a support to rise and fall on which the aerosol bottle sits in such a way that the rising or falling movement of the platform is transmitted to the aerosol bottle.
  • the aerosol bottle in an upward and downward movement, is guided by a guide comprising a geometry which conforms to its own in such a way that it prevents the aerosol from changing its trajectory or vertical position.
  • This guidance is essential to keep the aerosol in the vertical position of the striker, which will press the stem causing the product to escape.
  • This guide geometry is arranged on the base, thus facilitating the replacement of the aerosol when necessary and making its weight revert to the base, giving greater stability to the set.
  • the power supply preferably batteries, easily accessible for their replacement and which give weight to the base, making the set more stable.
  • the hood comprises a closed upper base with a striker on its inner face, this striker being associated with the exit hole for the aerosol substance to the outside of the dispenser.
  • the lower base is open.
  • the sides of the hood comprise skirts which extend from the upper base to the feet or lower part of the base, these skirts being able to form waves or undulations with parts which come closer to the bottom of the base and parts which remain at a greater height.
  • skirts include suitable holes, once the hood is correctly mounted on the device, to allow visual and physical access to existing indicators, detectors and controls on the base.
  • These indicators, detectors and controls which we will generically call services, are preferably arranged in a cascade, that is, the upper one is always closer to the vertical axis of the set than the lower one. This facilitates the assembly of the hood.
  • the spraying cycle includes the activation of the device, the raising of the support, and therefore the aerosol, until the stem of the aerosol collides with the striker in the hood and the stem is pressed, releasing the content of the aerosol which comes out of the exterior of the dispenser. After spraying, the support falls and so does the aerosol which remains at rest, normally in its lowest position, until the start of the next cycle.
  • the cycle is started either by the wish of the user by pressing a button or a specific programming or because a sensor determines that the circumstance in which it is desired to spray is present.
  • This sensor can be a presence detector, a light sensor, a temperature sensor or any other.
  • a sensor will be chosen to detect the presence in the vicinity of the device.
  • the proposed invention relates to an automatic dispenser for substances with a motor contained in aerosol (14), a series of gears (13) which transmit movement to a support (15) for the aerosol (2).
  • This support (15) which transmits the movement to the aerosol (2), presents a rising and falling vertical movement in such a way that on its rise, the stem (9) of the aerosol collides with a striker (16) and releases the substance, then starting its fall.
  • the dispenser is divided into base (3), aerosol (2) and hood (1).
  • the dispenser which comprises the said elements allows easy joining and separation between the hood and the base, facilitating the operations of replacing the aerosol or the batteries. Similarly, it allows the easy substitution of the hood by another one of a different colour, different decoration, texture, material or external geometry allowing the user to easily change the appearance of the dispenser but taking advantage of the mechanical and electronic part.
  • the hood and the base are inserted vertically to each other, the hood being in an upper position and covering the base, in such a way that the striker (16) is in the vertical position of the stem (9).
  • the spraying cycle is started either at the user's wish, or by programming with a timer or because a sensor is activated in a specific circumstance.
  • sensors which detect the presence of people or animals in the vicinity of the device will be used.
  • the support (15), by the action of the motor (14) and the gears (13), begins its rise by pushing the aerosol (2) which also rises, maintaining its vertical position thanks to the action of the guide (10).
  • the stem (9) of the aerosol encounters an existing striker (16) on the internal face of the exit hole (5), which causes the product to spray, starting at this point the fall of the aerosol to the next spraying cycle.
  • the hood and the base are joined thanks to the means of anchoring to the hood and the base which include a deformable button (18) in the base which retracts in order to allow the passage of the section of the hood and is released when finding the hole for fixing (17) of the hood, thereby fixing the assembly, preventing the vertical movement of the hood and its rotation.
  • the services (7) are cascaded.
