  • ABSTRACT An ejection device for producing amixed spray of a product consisting of at least two fluid product com- [451 May 1,1973
  • An ejector housing has a manifold chamber therein and nozzle means therein.
  • the nozzle means has at least two aspirating Venturi-type nozzle elements, one for aspirating each of the fluid products.
  • Each nozzle has a convergent chamber having a narrower andopposite this a wider open end, which latter is in free communication with the manifold chamber, a divergent chamber having a narrower and opposite this a wider open end, and a neck portion connecting the narrower end of the convergent chamber and the narrower end of the divergent chamber with each other.
  • the nozzle elements each have a product inlet between the two chambers.
  • a mixing recess open to the outside, is provided in a wall of the housing, into which recess the under open ends of the divergent chambers of all of the nozzle elements open.
  • At least one duct means is provided in the housing, opening at one end in a wall of the housing spaced from the mixing recess and communicating at its other end with the manifold chamber, for the free flow of propellant gas therethrough into the convergent chambers of all of the nozzle elements.
  • Separate conduit means is provided in the housing, one for each of the nozzle elements, each of which conduit means opens at one end in a wall of.
  • each of which conduit means is, at its other end, in communication with the product inlet of the neck portion of a different one of the noz zle elements.
  • This invention relates to an ejection device for producing a mixed spray of at least two fluid products, and more particularly an ejection device of this type which is suitable for use as pushbutton spray, head for multi-component aerosol dispensers.
  • the ejection device according to this invention is usable in aerosol dispensers of the type in which the components of the product to be sprayed are held in different compartments of a product container, and a separate cartridge for holding the propellant is provided within the interior of the dispenser and surrounded by a product container or containers, so that the components of the product are kept separate from each other and from the propellant in the dispenser.
  • Such multi-component aerosol dispensers which comprise a propellant cartridge filled with liquefied gas propellant and separate containers for two or more different fluid products, are generally equipped with suitable valve means and with a pushbutton spray head provided with a Venturi-type nozzle and wherein pressure upon the pushbutton spray head actuates the valve means to release propellant in the gas phase and the latter, passing through the spray nozzle, will aspirate the two or more products, to be dispensed in mixture with each other, via conduits means controlled by the same valve means.
  • Multi-component dispensers are especially desirable for application of pesticidal agents having two or more different biological activities for instance, when a fungicide and an insecticide which are insufficiently compatible for storage in mixtures are to be applied at the same time.
  • insecticidal phosphoric acid esters are conventionally applied dissolved in nonpolar solvents, while fungicides often require a polar solvent; mixture of the two components in a common aerosol product container would cause precipitation or decomposition, for instance in the case of Diazinone and Dodine.
  • Other important applications are found in the field of plant growth stimulation and fertilizer compositions. Iron chelates in solution are not stable when admixed with ammonium salts, in particular the nitrate or sulfates.
  • a persulfate component is to be admixed in a constant ratio with hydrogen peroxide or the like acting as reducing agent on the persulfate component.
  • Dispensers in which the product components are brought into contact before entering the Venturi nozzle suffer from the further drawback that the weight ratio of the components in the mixed spray is not constant, but fluctuates within certain limits.
  • a similar fluctuating effect is observed, for example, when running hot and cold water simultaneously from a common faucet, e.g., ofa shower or bathtub, the waterjet being at times colder and at times hotter than the desired average temperature.
  • lt is furthermore a principal object of the invention to provide an ejection device of the type described hereinbefore which permits of instimate intermingling of two product components in a common spray cloud without the formation of extensive zones in the common spray cone in which there is preponderance of one component over the other or others.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 3,236,457 to JR. Kennedy et al provides for directing two jets of product produced by a propellant exerting pressure and pushing rather than aspirating the product components out of their respective reservoirs.
  • the two jets impinging upon each other only intermingle unsatisfactorily at their contact zone and will be largely deflected away from each other.
  • the ejection device for producing a mixed spray of a product consisting of at least two fluid product components, through aspiration and ejection by a gaseous propellant, and comprising an ejector housing and nozzle means therein, characterized by a. a manifold chamber provided in said housing, and
  • Venturi-type nozzle elements in said nozzle, each of which elements is adapted for aspiration, by a gaseous propellant passing therethrough, of one of said fluid product components, and each of which nozzle elements comprises i. a convergent chamber having a narrower and opposite this a wider open end which latter is in free communication with said manifold chamber,
  • At least one duct means in said housing opening at one end in a wall of the latter spaced from said mixing recess therein, and being at its other end in communication with said manifold chamber, for the free flow of propellant gas therethrough into said convergent chambers of all of said nozzle elements, and
  • conduit means in said housing corresponding in number to that of said nozzle elements, each of which conduit means opens at one end in a wall of said housing spaced from the openings of said mixing recess and from the opening or openings of said duct means, and each of which conduit means is, at its other end, in communication with the said product inlet of the neck portion of a different one of said nozzle means.
  • the weight ratio of the first to the second product component in the mixed spray ejected from the device will be practically constant at 2:1.
  • Ejection devices according to the invention which are particularly simple to manufacture are those having two Venturi-type nozzle elements opening into the common mixing recess.
  • Such ejection devices can be readily made from synthetic plastics by molding of two halves joined together in the common central plane through the two nozzle elements, by conventional means such as thermic welding, gluing or the like.
  • the two Venturi-type nozzle elements are preferably located in a plane horizontal to the bottom wall of the ejector housing.
  • the inlet recess from which the duct means for the propellant lead to the manifold, and the several product conduits lead to the respective neck passages of the different nozzles are preferably arranged so that their longitudinal axes represent the edges of a triangular pyramid or tetraeder, with the manifold chamber as its base.
  • the preferred use of the ejection device according to the invention is as a pushbutton spray head for aerosol dispensers.
  • Well-known types of pushbutton aerosol dispenser can be readily fitted with an ejector device according to the invention, as long as they possess more than one compartment for product to be dispensed, and are equipped with valve means for commonly controlling outflow of product components from the several compartments, as well as outflow of propellant from a separate propellant cartridge or the like reservoir.
  • the valve shaft or stem of such valve means must, of course be designed to possess a separate duct for the propellant and separate conduits for each of the product components. These ducts and conduits should open at the outward end of the valve shaft.
  • the inlet recess of the ejector device according to the invention must be so devised, and the openings of the propellant duct to the manifold and of the several product conduits to the product inlets of the several neck passages of the Venturi-type nozzle elements must be so located in that recess, that upon placing of the ejection device upon the valve shaft, each of the duct and conduits in the device registers with a corresponding duct or conduit in the valve shaft, so that there is no intermingling of the several product components prior to their ejection into the mixing recess, contrary to what occurs in the earlier constructions using a single Venturi-type nozzle; there must, of course, be no mixing of the propellant with one or the other of the product components either, prior to the propellant passing through the manifold into the convergent chambers of the several nozzles.
  • FIG. 7 shows a front view partially in section of, the ejection device according to the invention; all movable parts are in unactuated or storage position. 7
  • FIG. 2 shows the same arrangement as in FIG. 1, but with the ejection device in a partially sectional side view, and in depressed position relative to the aerosol dispenser body (actuated or discharge position).
  • FIG. 3 shows a horizontal sectional view of the ejection device as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, along the plane indicated by IIIIII in these figures;
  • FIG. 4 shows another horizontal sectional view of the ejection device shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, but along a plane IV-IV below that in which FIG. 3 is taken;
  • FIG. 5 is a transversal section through the valve stem of the aerosol dispenser shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the ejection device as shown in the preceding figures being especially adapted to be mounted this stem;
  • FIG. 6 shows the same ejection device mounted on an aerosol dispenser body of somewhat different construction, and in a partially sectional view, the section of the ejection device being taken along the plane indicated by VI-VI in FIG. 3.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 The particular embodiment of the dispenser shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is designed for spraying a multi-component product in liquid form. Furthermore, in FIGS. 3 to 6 there is illustrated a preferred embodiment of the ejection device according to the invention as applied to the valve shaft of a multi-component product dispenser.
  • the multi-component product to be sprayed can therefore consist of, or contain, two or more components which are not compatible with each other, or would react with each other instantaneously with formation of products tending to clog a conventional Venturi nozzle.
  • This multi-component product dispenser comprises an outer casing or mantle 1, a cap 2 for the casing which cap is provided with a central opening 2a and is mounted on the upper rim la of the casing 11.
  • the dispenser is further provided with valve means comprising a valve housing 3 and a valve shaft or stem 4, a propellant reservoir e.g., a cartridge 5 which is attached to the underside of the valve housing 3, and,
  • Outflow of propellant gas from the propellant cartridge 5 into an axial opening, e.g., a central bore 10 of valve shaft 4 is controlled by a high pressure obturator which comprises a propellant flow-controlling annular gasket 11, and outflow of product components from bags 6 and 7 into separate ducts 12, 13 of the valve shaft 4 is controlled by low pressure obturators comprising a first annular gasket 14 for controlling product flow from bag 6 and a second annular gasket 15 for controlling the flow of the other product component from bag 7.

  • the central passage 16, 17, 18 through the valve housing 3 is provided with a shoulder 19 narrowing the zone 17 of the passageway and with an annular rib 30 protruding into that narrower zone 17 of, the passageway, and having a central opening 30a through which the upper and narrowed central zone 17 of the passageway is in communication with the lower or bottom zone 18 thereof, opening into an enlarged recess 31 being open toward the propellant reservoir 5.
  • Annular gasket 14 controls the flow of a first product component from bag 6 via connecting tube 8 which latter is firmly inserted into a corresponding bore 32 and via a channel 33 in the housing 3 which channel opens into the upper zone 16 of the central passageway of the housing and then into ducts 12 of valve shaft 4.

  • Annular gasket 11 which controls the flow of propellant from the cartridge 5 is mounted in the lower zone 18 of the hollow chamber of the valve housing and is held against the underside of annular rib 30 of the latter by means of an external retaining ring 35 having approximately the shape of an upside-down mushroom, which ring 35 is mounted with its outwardly flared portion 35a, which projects out of the bottom recess 31, onto the underside of the sleeve-shaped valve housing portion 3b encircling said recess 31 and is held in position on said housing portion 312 by a crimped portion 5a of the neck of the propellant cartridge 5.

  • the central bore in the valve shaft 4 opens on one end in the middle of the upper end of the valve shaft and on the other via several orifices 41 in the neck zone of the valve shaft just above the valve shaft head 40.
  • This neck zone of shaft 4 is engaged by gasket 1 1 of the high pressure obturator so that orifices 41 in this zone are obturated as in the position of valve shaft 4 shown in FIG. 1, and so that they are opened for the flow of propellant therethrough when the valve shaft is in the actuated position of the dispenser shown in FIG. 2.
  • valve shaft 4 When the valve shaft 4 is not actuated by pressure upon the ejection device according to the invention serving as pushbutton of the dispenser, it is held in the position shown in FIG. 1 by means of a spring 36 which rests with its one end on annular flange 34a of retaining ring 34 and urges with its other end against the underside of a thickened portion or flange 42 provided on shaft 4 in the central zone of the latter.
  • Valve shaft 4 is further provided with a plurality of product ducts 12 and 13, the latter extending in the interior of the shaft parallel to, but separate from the central shaft bore 10, whereas the ducts 12 extend above the annular flange 42 as grooves in the outer wall of the shaft separated from each other by longitudinal ribs 44, the open portion of said grooves being terminated by the inner wall of the sleeve 21.

  • gasket 11 prevents at all times the flow of propellant into the zones 17 and 18 and the escape of product of bag 7 from zone 17 into zone 18 of the central passageway of the valve housing; likewise gasket prevents at all times the leakage of the same product from zone 17 into zone 16 and, vice versa, the flow of the product of bag 6 from zone 16 into zone 17 of the central passageway.
  • gasket 14 prevents at all times an undesired outflow of the product from bag 6 and zone 16 of the central passageway outside of ducts 12, and also prevents the passage of air from the outside into the central passageway of the valve housing via air inlet port 39.
