Applicator systems

The present invention is about applicator systems, and it can transmit the composition that can flow from container with any direction of container.

A kind of applicator systems that can transmit in all directions is disclosed in JP (UM)-A-7-22951.

Applicator systems as object of reference after this comprises:

A container, it comprises that the inside that is different from outside deformable layer can flatten layer, and a layer definite storage can be flattened in inside, and outside deformable layer and inside can be flattened layer and be separated by buffer area;

A configurator, it comprises first path that is different from alternate path, and first path is communicated with buffer area, and alternate path is communicated with storage;

Valving, it is operationally controlled by first path and enters the air of buffer area and the flowing of the flowed composition that flows out from storage by alternate path.

Yet adopted unidirectional flap valve in order to control the air that enters buffer area by first path, for the control composition that can flow flows out from storage by alternate path the unidirectional flap valve that physically separates is provided.

If can simplify above-mentioned applicator systems, assembling is more prone to, thereby makes manufacturing efficiency higher, this meets commercial the requirement.

The invention provides this simplification, wherein above-mentioned applicator systems is characterised in that valving is an integrally-built device.

It is that the container of a layering is possible that container is made, and wherein inside can be flattened layer and progressively peeled off from outside deformable layer, and inside can be flattened layer replaceability ground and be comprised a flexible bag.

Control intake section flap valve preferably of the valving of first path.

For fear of only depending on single air inlet, and this inlet may be dropped in outer the flowed composition of configurator and stops up, and first path can comprise a plurality of circumferential isolated air inlets, and flap valve can be annular.

The exit portion of valving of control alternate path is four valves (quadrolobe valve) of opening from the middle part rather than opening from sidepiece, so it can flow out when the composition that can flow flows out from storage smoothly.

Be combined on the configurator if this valving is pushed, this assembly will be simple especially.

Especially four valves can be slippaged in alternate path.

If slippaging simply directly or indirectly, configurator on container, just helps simplifying the configurator assembly that has container.

Accompanying drawing represents to implement a cover hair color applicator of all aspects of the invention; these aspects all are that the present invention and a plurality of temporary patent application are asked for protection, and these aspects relate to conveying system and are used to transmit can flow releasing system and the various applicator and the applicator systems of composition.

Though flowable composition is the hair coloring composition preferably, the present invention is not limited only to this special flowable composition.The example of other flowable composition is: the medicine of pet nursing; The food of flapjack mixture class; The detergent that is used for clothes or carpet class; Cosmetics, glue or the oiling agent etc. that are used for health washing or humidification.

It may be problematic adopting the hair coloring composition.

A problem is that the hair coloring composition may must be prepared before use with two or more materials.This means that these materials must store separately, are mixed by user oneself when needed.Common a kind of material is a hydrogen peroxide, and another kind of material is a dyestuff.Yet the user must be without any risk dangerous or that stain when being added to dyestuff in the hydrogen peroxide.

Another problem is that the hair coloring composition may must be added on the hair by applicator at any angle.If supply with applicator from single pressurized bottle, when pressurized bottle was filled, applicator used in any direction.Yet when pressurized bottle progressively during emptying, have been found that this applicator just can not any direction use immediately, at first must be ready, its is tilted to produce the suck-back effect of hair coloring composition.This is with regard to the coating of restive hair coloring composition, just more difficult control when especially the coating of hairline being avoided polluting skin again.

This hair coloring device not only allows the preparation before just using of hair coloring composition, and have and to supply with applicator by the conveying system of user's control, wherein the hair coloring composition is to be discharged by the pressure reduction (not being pneumatic) that machinery produces, like this, the hair coloring composition always can discharge on any direction of conveying system.

Concerning all hair coloring compositions that will transmit, can carry out the discharging of all directions, can discharge the hair coloring composition that prepared more than 90% or even reach 95%.

This hair coloring device also allows the hair coloring composition to be sent to special area with the amount that the user regulates by applicator, thereby obtains uniform COLOR COMPOSITION THROUGH DISTRIBUTION under the situation of polluting minimum.

Even carefully operate, also the neither one applicator is applicable to fully the hair coloring composition is added on the main body at root of hair, hair and hair top.Therefore provide various types of applicators usually, they are selected from hair applicator, surface applied device and brush/comb formula applicator.The hair applicator can be the jet pipe with single outlet, and the surface applied device can be the porous material with a plurality of outlets.The applicator of brush/comb formula can have the outlet of a plurality of discharging hair coloring components, is discharged by a plurality of elongate articles again.Can imagine that elongate articles can be made of bristle or broach.All dissimilar applicators all are communicated with the fluid container that the hair coloring composition is housed.

The special benefits of hair coloring device of the present invention is:

(a) in use only select a kind of in three kinds of dissimilar applicators, when handling hair at random, can not have the risk that any hair coloring composition is stayed on the hair or other applicator causes;

(b) the surface applied device in three kinds of dissimilar applicators is the applicator of a kind of foaming or sponge material, but these materials have the porous structure of elastic compression, thereby has improved the distribution of hair coloring composition; With

(c) brush/comb formula applicator in three kinds of dissimilar applicators has two outlets at least on its corresponding elongate articles, thereby has improved the distribution of hair coloring composition.

Other special benefits of hair coloring device of the present invention is, a valve is controlled air simultaneously and is entered the dual functions of exporting with the hair coloring composition, the support of elongate articles is fixed on the cover by at least one hook, hook can discharge on a position away from the hair coloring composition, under a hair applicator installed to situation on the container, brush/comb formula applicator can be positioned at the top that still directly installs to the hair applicator on the container.

Before reference Fig. 7 and 8 describes surperficial applicator and the brush/comb formula applicator with reference to Fig. 9 and 10, with reference to Fig. 1-6 conveying system that cooperates hair is described earlier.

A bottle 10 can be formed by a hollow article 12, and this hollow article has plurality of stepped serrations, lower end closed usually, has unlimited neck 14 in the top.Neck can form outside thread 16.Neck 14 also can have a pair of relative leg 18, only illustrates one in Fig. 1.Each leg 18 preferably includes the gap 20 on the slope 22, and its purposes describes below.

At least body 12 can be made by the plastics of elastically deformable, can be out of shape rapidly when bottle 10 discharges behind pressurized like this.These plastics can be low-density polyethylene, LLDPE (LLDPE) or polypropylene, and it can be transparent.If opaque, these plastics are preferably translucent, and can or not be colored.

Flexible bag 24 can be coincided by the plate 26 of two same shapes and form, and around the most of common edge involution of this two boards together, forms a pocket side seal, that have upper opening 28 and V-arrangement edge, bottom 30.Bag 24 determines splendid attire first materials, as the storage of hydrogen peroxide, therefore a good damp proof barrier is provided.Every block of plate 26 can be the metallized material of layering, preferably includes following three layers: LLDPE sealing layer/glue-line/metallized PET (polyethylene terephthalate).

Bag 24 can insert bottle 10 by neck 14, has the container that layer (plate 26) can be flattened in outside deformable layer (body 12) and inside thereby form, and this is two-layer to be separated by buffer area shown in Figure 4 32.

Also as shown in Figure 4, support tube 34 can insert in the bag 24 by opening 28.Pipe 34 can have a plurality of holes 36 along its length, and provide the cross section be open wide to small part be the passage of rigidity.The lower end 38 of pipe 34 can be opened wide, also seal.The lower end 38 of pipe 34 can contact with bag 24, also can be not contacting with the V-arrangement end 30 of bag 24 of sealing.The upper end of pipe 34 can be fixed on the plug-in unit 40 by any suitable method and apparatus, also can slippage simply in plug-in unit 40.

Plug-in unit 40 can partly insert in the bag 24 by opening 28, also can partly insert in the bottle 10 by neck 14.Plug-in unit preferably adopts as ultrasonic bond and fetches heating, permanently is fixed to the liquid seal form around the opening 28 of plate 26, and plug-in unit 40 and bag 24 can become an overall structure.Plug-in unit 40 preferably is fixed on the neck 14 by the method and apparatus of simply slippaging or other is suitable non-dismountablely, but also can be pulled down to obtain a system that can annotate again by the user.

Shown in Fig. 2,4 and 6, plug-in unit 40 can be formed by the monoblock plastic, and it has the tubular element 42 that limits a hole, and this tubular element extends with the middle part of a pair of relative lower part 48 at sidewall 44, cross wall 46.

Sidewall 44 has the flange 50 that extends outwardly as shown in the figure in the top, and it can limit plug-in unit 40 and insert bottle 10; On the medium position between flange 50 and the cross wall 46, also has inside rib 52.Illustrated cross wall 46 has a plurality of through holes 54, is communicated to buffer area 32 between tubular member 42 and sidewall 44 and surrounds the annular pass 56 of tubular member 42 with this.Illustrated relative lower part 48 is hollow, the depression in the time of can preventing molding, the liquid seal formula when therefore helping plug-in unit and inserting in the bag 24 fixing.

The lower end of tubular element 42 can be recessed inwardly, and in order to admit the upper end of pipe 34, the upper end of tubular element 42 is chamfering inwardly.

Part injection will be supplied with the user usually as the bag of first material of hydrogen peroxide, must prevent that therefore first material from passing through pipe 34 and tubular element 42 is overflowed.Can provide one dismountablely to push the upper end that top cover comes closed tube spare 42.The also available peelable diaphragm seal sealing in the upper end of tubular element 42 in addition.Lid 58 as shown in Figure 2 but had better be provided.

Lid 58 also can be formed by the monoblock plastic, and it can have the leg formula Sealing 60 of the upper end of sealed tubular spare 42.Lid 58 standing part can with neck 14 air-tight fit of bottle 10.Yet have benefit when the standing part 62 of the lid 58 that forms non-air-tight fit, for example, it can have internal thread 64, can with the external thread bolt connection on bottle 10 necks 14, thereby the gas passageway providing from annular pass 56 to atmosphere.

A benefit of doing like this is, if it is inapplicable and produce oxygen to wrap hydrogen peroxide in 24, bag 24 expands, and the air of buffer area 32 can be by the hole 54 in the plug-in unit 40, overflow between

screw thread

16 and 64 then.

Another benefit is, if buffer area 32 is subjected to the variation of the undesirable pressure that causes as air-flow, air can be from above-mentioned passage turnover buffer area 32.

The hair coloring device of having described makes the user prepare hair coloring composition or other flowable composition before just using.

In practice, at least a second material can add in first material in the storage.If storage is emptying in sky or former the use, at first first material must be added in the storage certainly.Under any circumstance, the material that initially separates must be the material that can mix.

Briefly show as Fig. 4, second material can be stored in the independent container 60.If first material is a hydrogen peroxide, second material should be dyestuff seemingly.Because dyestuff is the quick property of oxygen, container 66 must have splendid resistance oxygen barrier.In addition, if dyestuff is grease or paste, container 66 necessary plastically deformables, thus the user can be extruded dyestuff.On the other hand, if dyestuff is liquid, it can be discharged from container 66 under action of gravity.

If container 66 is elastically deformables, bag 24 tops that are preferably in first material are filled with air, if container 66 is elastically deformables not, bag 24 preferably can deflate.

Available a plurality of container 66 is supplied with the user, each container 66 can comprise a kind of different material, as the hair-dyeing agent of the different depths, one or more like this containers 66 pour into storage with form special flowable composition, as the hair-dyeing composition of the selected especially depth.

For container 66 or each container 66, need comprise a long nozzle 68, it can pass tubular member 42 and enter pipe 34 fully.As if this can be when the user with the hands oppresses container 66, and container 66 does not leave bottle 10 and they are joined well.This is because the composition in the container 66 can directly enter the composition of bag 24 from the confined area, and this just helps their good mixing.Obviously, container 66 must be opened earlier before its long nozzle 68 inserts tubular elements 42, and this work of opening can be adopted and tear, cuts or turn round lost nozzle top 70 (among Fig. 4 shown in the dotted line) and carry out.

Should see that when second kind of material enters the bag 24 from container 66, the volume of the air of the top of first material will gradually reduce in the bag 24, for preventing that wrapping 24 expands, and should emit the air of these pressurizeds.

If nozzle 68 loose grounds are engaged on the tubular element 42, pressurized air will be overflowed by the cooperation of pine pine.In addition, can form one or more cuttings, and/or near the dye reservoir of the bottom of nozzle 68, form one or more air escape orifices along the length direction of nozzle 68.According to the natural characteristic and the size thereof of second material in the container, pressurized air can be passed second material and upwards be formed airbag in container 66, and when the airbag in bag 24 dwindled, the airbag in the container 66 expanded.

Expand even wrap 24, the air in the buffer area 32 will as previously mentioned, passes hole 54 effusions in the cross wall 46 of plug-in unit 40.

After the second enough material was added in first material, container 66 took off from bottle 10, or threw away or reseal and deposit in order to using in the future.

When adding second material in first material with the method for slowly pouring into, second kind of material can be contained in the container, this container forms or is positioned at bag 24, and method available as compressing bottle 10 bodies 12 makes its fragmentation, or with other method second material is added in first material.

When second material was added in first material, the most handy method of rocking bottle 10 was mixed them.When rocking, the user can be placed on the finger of band gloves the upper end of tubular element 42, and the composition that prevents to wrap in 24 is overflowed.Yet method is that the user changes and covers 58 more easily, thereby makes leg formula Sealing 60 press close to the upper end of tubular element 42.In either case, pipe 34 plays the effect of restriction bag 24 when bottle 10 rocks and/or is inverted, and mixes thereby make the composition that wraps in 24 more freely move and to help than bag 24.Can believe, if wrap 24 head room stay approximately it volume about 10%, best mixed method is to rock.If wrap 24 and bottle 10 body 12 both all be translucent, whether mix fully with regard to available eyes range estimation.

In order to prepare to discharge the flowable composition that forms by first and second materials or more particularly, discharging exposes plug-in unit 40 again by the hair-dyeing composition that hydrogen peroxide and dyestuff form, and jet pipe 72 is installed on the plug-in unit 40, as illustrated in Figures 5 and 6.

Jet pipe 72 also can be formed by the monoblock plastic, and it comprises the column part 74 of linking arched part 76 here, and arched part 76 stretches to tapering part 78.The bottom of column part 74 has guiding plush copper 80 outwardly.Shoulder part 82 on the contiguous arched part 76 in the top of column part 74.One or more, pass arched part 76 as 3 gas accesses 84, around circumferentially being spacedly distributed of arched part 76.Tapering part 78 has elongated passageway 86, and this passage 86 narrows down gradually along its length, reaches an outlet 88 on the less upper end from bigger lower end.Bigger lower end at the close passage 86 of tapering part internal surface has an annular recess 90.Less upper end near passage 86 on the outer surface of tapering part 78 has annular plush copper 92.

A valve member 94 can install on the jet pipe 72, and this valve member can be made by silicon polymer, also can be an overall structure.

Valve member 94 preferably includes the intake section of ring-type flap valve 96 forms, and it plays the effect of an one-way valve, in order to entering of the air of control by air inlet 84.

Valve member 94 also preferably includes four valves 98 (quadro1obe valve) of centering, and it plays the effect of an one-way valve, in order to the outlet of control by the hair coloring composition of passage 86.Because these four valves 98 are opened from the middle part rather than opened from sidepiece, therefore the hair coloring composition is successfully flowed out.Yet as the alternative of four valves 98, the exit portion of valve member 94 is flap valve, umbrella valve or duckbill valve also.

Flap valve 96 can be connected by an intermediate portion with four valves 98, and this middle part comprises transverse sealing wall 100 and taper type location wall 102, and the outer surface of wall 102 has annular plush copper 104.

Jet pipe 72 is easy to install on the plug-in unit 40, as long as the column part 74 of jet pipe 72 is pushed in the annular pass 56 of plug-in unit 40, fasten by the rib on the plug-in unit 40 52 up to the plush copper on the column part 74 80, hear or when feeling click till, this moment, the shoulder 82 of jet pipe 72 abutted on the flange 50 of plug-in unit 40, the sealed wall 100 of valve member 94 and the upper end sealed engagement of the tubular member 42 of plug-in unit 40.

In another kind of structure, jet pipe 72 can adopt and be spirally connected rather than above-mentioned slippaging is installed on the plug-in unit 40.

After jet pipe 72 has installed on the plug-in unit 40,, can rock bottle 10 in order to mix or mix again flowable composition.

For with the hair coloring composition from wrapping 24 outlets 88 of delivering to jet pipe 72, the hair coloring composition is discharged into the hair root in the outlet port, can be by the body 12 of user's squeeze bottle 10.This is the air of compressed buffer 32, and pressurized air wherein is because the effect of flap valve 96, having sealed air inlet 84 just can not be by comprising the fluid passage effusion of hole 54, annular pass 56 and gas access 84.Thereby pressurized air partly flattens bag 24, thereby some hair coloring compositions are extruded by the fluid passage that comprises pipe 34, tubular member 42, taper type location wall 102 and opened four valves 98.When the user stopped the body 12 of squeeze bottle 10, bottle 10 is distortion rapidly, and buffer area is expanded.Four valves 98 cut out to prevent that the hair coloring composition from sucking back, and bag 24 keeps its part collapsed state.This moment, air sucked buffer area 32 by flap valve 96, and flap valve is opened to allow air to enter by air inlet 84.

Pressure that the user sees fit with him and frequency repeat the body 12 of squeeze bottle 10.

Should see that the hole 36 of pipe on 34 can prevent to wrap 24 and be flattened gradually that the plate that makes bag 24 is in contact with one another and the hair coloring composition that causes is obstructed, pipe 34 itself is also collapsible to discharge the flowable composition in the pipe 34.

When discharging hair coloring components, the user can be by being that translucent body 12 is seen bag 24 situations about being crushed at least.This can make worries that the user that the hair coloring composition has used up can relieved use under ignorant situation.

Though being used to adorn the storage of first material can be the bag of foregoing side seal, this storage also can adopt other form, can flatten layer as the bottle of half reversing bag or the bottle inside that provide, that be different from outside deformable layer of layering, the bottle of layering is preferably by blowing bag from the strip off gradually of its neck with the Unitarily molded pressurization of plug-in unit.

In addition, though valve member can have dual functions but as a whole structure as previously mentioned, this valve member also can adopt other form, for example can adopt independent valve to control the discharge of hair staining components and entering of air, entering of control air can only be the simple pore on the bottle, and the user can seal it with finger.

Now removably be fixed on the top of the outlet 88 of jet pipe 72 referring to Fig. 7 and 8, one surface applied devices 106.More particularly, this surface applied device 106 can comprise the cushion block of being made by foam or sponge material 108, but it has the porous structure of elastic compression.This structure not only has a plurality of outlets, and can make the hair-dyeing composition from outlet 88 pass cushion block 108, is sprayed on the hair equably by careful operation.This cushion block 108 can be located on or near the upper end of underframe 110, and lower half portion of underframe 110 is a taper type, and the upper end is less and the lower end is bigger.The internal surface of lower half portion of underframe 110 can be made has annular notch 112, be used for when shifting onto underframe 110 on the jet pipe 72, removably with jet pipe 72 on annular plush copper 92 engagement.Underframe 110 and jet pipe 72 can mutually combine to be shaped and relatively rotate avoiding.Cushion block 108 can be made a curved surface, and for helping accurate coating, this curved surface only partly extends along upper half part outer circumferential face of underframe 110.If cushion block 108 is made of plastics, underframe 110 also can be made of plastics, and can cushion block 108 be fixed on the underframe 110 with glue.Obviously, if original applicator 106 can not clean or not reuse, a zone of surface applied device 106 can make under the nonrecoverable situation similarly, under interchangeable situation, make different.

As shown in Fig. 9 to 12, the applicator 114 of a kind of brush of alternative surperficial applicator 106/comb formula removably is fixed on the top of the outlet 88 of jet pipe 72, and it comprises 116 and releasable devices 118 of a cover.

This brush/comb formula applicator 114 can be spirally connected or fasten on the neck 14.

Cover 116 also is Unitarily molded forming, from its top down, have hole 120, the unlimited chamber 122 of taper, on its opposite major sides wall, has the wallboard 124 that a plurality of grooves are arranged, conduit 126 guarantee from the chamber 128 to the chamber 122 open communication, the groove 130 on 128 tops in the chamber is near the internal thread 132 of 128 lower ends, chamber, with a pair of relative leg member 134 on 128 lower ends, chamber.

Internal thread 132 is preferably formed by mould rather than tapping forms.

Cover 116 removably is screwed on the bottle 10 by making internal thread 132 in the chamber 128 and being engaged on the outside thread 16 on the neck 14.When cover 116 was progressively tightened, the outlet of jet pipe 72 entered conduit 126.At last, leg member 134 is fastened in the gap 20 of leg member 18 along the slope 22 of leg member 18.Can hear or feel that expression cover 116 is screwed to " click clatter " sound on the bottle 10 fully during fastening.In this final position, leg member 18 and 134 intermeshes, and chamber 122 is opened wide at the major axes orientation of body 12, and it will be recovered and have elliptic cross-section.

As the member of this hair coloring device, but releasing device 118 also can form by the plastic monoblock molding, the plastics available polyethylene, additive with silicon so that friction factor is lower.

But releasing device 118 is that part is translucent at least, thereby makes the user understand the transmission situation of flowable composition.

Device 118 comprises support 136, and it is normally flat, broadens gradually from top to bottom.Narrower upper end has the hook 138 of the elastically deformable that extends from it, and hook has barb-like front end 138a.The lower end of broad has the hook 140 of the rigidity of extending from it, and hook 140 has barb-like front end 140a.Have a skirt section 142 around the support 136, it has the configuration with the opening complementation in chamber 122.A plurality ofly pass support 136 with the outlet 146 that the direction opposite with the hook 138 of elastically deformable, rigidity hook 146 and skirt section 142 protruded a plurality of compositions that are used for flowing from the support 136 as basic elongate articles for rigid teeth 114.

As shown in Figure 9, can settle two row teeth 144.Tooth 144 is seen the triangle configuration that needn't have different transverse dimensions from the end of two row.The transverse dimension of tooth 144 can progressively increase the lower end from the narrower top of support 136 to the broad of support 136.Different rows tooth 144 can be interlaced in addition, can form leg-of-mutton configuration again, but see that from the sidepiece of two row they have similar thickness usually this moment.

As shown in Figure 11, at least two, be likely that all outlets 146 all pass a corresponding tooth 144.Yet also can require one or more outlets not pass tooth 144, for example at least one outlet 146 can be on the support between the adjacent tooth 144 136.At least two, also may be that all outlets of passing tooth 144 146 have through hole 148 at the free end of tooth 144.

In fact, though mention for sake of convenience on the free end that hole 148 is positioned at tooth 144, hole 148 can be located on the free end position after a while of tooth 144, partly cause is to avoid directly being coated onto on the scalp, close the molding technique of technology in part because of the current face of people's appellation, this technology allows to adopt simple two formula moulds that needn't have the sidepiece contact pin just can form hole 148.

116 fit together with cover in order to install 118, only need barb-like front end 140a with rigidity hook 140 be contained in the groove 130 and rotate.This makes wallboard 124 engagements of the free edge and the with groove in skirt section 142, and the barb-like front edge of the hook 138 that tilts simultaneously makes hook 138 enter hole 120.When the barb-like front edge 138a of hook 138 exposed material with cover 116 around the hole and fastens from hole 120, device 118 just was completely fixed on the cover 116.

In order to take off device 118, carry out following reverse operating program from covering 116.Hook 138 can be discharged by finger pressure, also can make the barb-like front end 138a of this rigid surface collision hook 138 by spreading cover 116 on a rigid surface, and it is withdrawn in the hole 120, discharges hook 138 with this.Should see that the release of hook 138 occurs in the place away from hole 148.

Is in order to help cleaning residual hair coloring composition with device 118 from covering 116 reasons of taking off.

Another reason is in order to replace another kind of dissimilar device 118, for example, may require with comprising the brush-like structure or the spongelike structure of some resilient flexible bristles or different size being arranged and the pectinate texture of other type in the tooth of different configurations and/or hole is replaced the tooth 144 of basic pectinate texture for rigidity.Do like this help under different situations, as accurate configuration hair coloring components under the situation of different hair lengths or different hair style.

The size in hole 148, position and shape can change as covering root, formation striped or high brightness by rheology situation or the different painted needs according to the hair coloring composition on different devices.

Usually, for all the elements of the present disclosure, first container of splendid attire first material can be regarded as bottle when it is fitted together with any or different applicator united piece.
