Abstract

A container which can be easily filled and handled for the packing of two compositions which must be separately kept until mixed shortly before use, consists of two separate chambers which are arranged one upon the other in a packing unit. The upper chamber is provided with a closeable orifice for the delivery of the mixture. An intermediate part is arranged between the two chambers and such part has cutting edges or sharp mandrels on both sides thereof which allow the two compositions being separately kept to be mixed by cutting the bottom part of the upper chamber and the upper part of the bottom chamber when the container is pressed or screwed together.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Behältnis zur Verpackung von zwei bis zu ihrer Anwendung voneinander getrennt zu haltenden Zusammensetzungen, die unmittelbar vor der Anwendung miteinander vermischt werden.The present invention relates to a container for packaging two compositions to be kept separate from one another until use, which are mixed with one another immediately before use.

Derartige Zweikomponenten-Behältnisse sind seit langem bekannt.Such two-component containers have been known for a long time.

Sie bestehen in der Regel aus zwei in einer Verpackungseinheit übereinander angeordneten, getrennten Kammern, wobei die obere Kammer mit einer verschließbaren Abgabeöffnung zur Ausgabe des Gemisches versehen ist, beide Behälter durch eine Trennfolie getrennt sind, und ein scharfkantiges Stanzwerkzeug vorhanden ist, das beim Zusammenschrauben oder Zusammendrücken der Behältnisse die Trennfolie durchstößt und so das Vermischen der Behälterinhalte unmittelbar vor der Anwendung ermöglicht.They usually consist of two separate chambers arranged one above the other in a packaging unit, the upper chamber being provided with a closable dispensing opening for dispensing the mixture, both containers being separated by a separating film, and a sharp-edged punching tool being available for screwing together or Squeezing the containers pierces the separating film, thus allowing the contents of the container to be mixed immediately before use.

Eine derartige Zweikomponenten-Verpackung ist beispielsweise in der DE-PS 2 760 079 beschrieben.Such a two-component packaging is described for example in DE-PS 2 760 079.

Weitere Ausgestaltungen solcher bekannter Zweikomponenten-Behältnisse sind in der DE-OS 2 451 167, der DE-AS 1 536 305, der DE-OS 2 211 753, der US-PS 3 521 745, der US-PS 3 548 562, der DE-GbmS 7317067 sowie der DE-OS 2 539 231 offenbart.Further configurations of such known two-component containers are in DE-OS 2 451 167, DE-AS 1 536 305, DE-OS 2 211 753, US Pat. No. 3,521,745, US Pat. No. 3,548,562 DE-GbmS 7317067 and DE-OS 2 539 231 are disclosed.

Die Füllung dieser Zweikomponenten-Verpackungen mit den bis zu ihrer Anwendung getrennt gehaltenen Zusammensetzungen erfolgt in der Regel so, daß zuerst der unten angeordnete Behälter mit dem in diesem unterzubringenden Produkt gefüllt, anschließend dessen Öffnung mittels einer Trennfolie mit dem oberen Behältnis verschweißt, und anschließend dieses gefüllt und verschlossen wird.The filling of these two-component packs with the compositions kept separate until they are used is generally carried out in such a way that first the container located below is filled with the product to be accommodated therein, then its opening is welded to the upper container by means of a separating film, and then this is sealed is filled and sealed.

Ein solches aus mehreren Schritten bestehendes Verfahren ist relativ umständlich und aufwendig.Such a process consisting of several steps is relatively cumbersome and complex.

Ein weiterer Nachteil der bekannten Zweikomponenten-Behältnisse besteht darin, daß der Offnungsmechanismus, d.h., der ein Durchstoßen der Trennfolie bei der Anwendung bewirkende Dorn oder eine entsprechende Schneidkante, in einer der beiden Kammern angeordnet sein muß und deshalb mit deren Füllgut in dauernder Berührung steht, was bei längerer Aufbewahrung unerwünschte Veränderungen des Produktes hervorrufen kann.Another disadvantage of the known two-component containers is that the opening mechanism, that is to say the mandrel causing the separating film to pierce during use or a corresponding cutting edge, must be arranged in one of the two chambers and is therefore in constant contact with the contents thereof. which can cause undesirable changes to the product if stored for a long time.

Aus der FR-A 2 294 937, ist bereits ein Zweikomponenten-Behältnis bekannt, das diese Nachteile dadurch vermeidet, daß zwischen beiden Kammern ein beiderseits mit Schneidkanten oder Dornen versehenes Zwischenglied angeordnet ist, das beim Zusammendrücken oder Zusammenschrauben der beiden Kammern gleichzeitig das Unterteil der oben angeordneten und das Oberteil der unten angeordneten Kammer durchtrennt und damit das Vermischen der separat gehaltenen Zusammensetzungen und die Abgabe der so hergestellten Mischung gestattet.From FR-A 2 294 937, a two-component container is already known which avoids these disadvantages by arranging an intermediate member provided on both sides with cutting edges or thorns, which at the same time is the lower part of the two chambers when compressed or screwed together arranged at the top and the upper part of the chamber arranged at the bottom is separated, thus permitting the mixing of the separately held compositions and the dispensing of the mixture thus produced.

Sei diesem bekannten Behältnis wird jedoch das Zusammenbringen beider Behälterteile unter Zerstörung der jeweiligen Membranen auf umständliche Weise durch Entfernen von speziell angebrachten Sicherungsringen bewerkstelligt. Darüberhinaus ist beim Zusammenbringen der Behälterteile eine ausreichende Abdichtung des nunmehr vereinigten, miteinander in Reaktion getretenen Behälterinhalts nicht mehr gewährleistet.Be this known container, however, the bringing together of the two container parts while destroying the respective membranes in a cumbersome way by removing specially attached locking rings. In addition, when the container parts are brought together, adequate sealing of the now combined container contents which have reacted with one another is no longer guaranteed.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung kann auf diese genannten Sicherungsringe verzichtet werden.In the device according to the invention, these circlips can be dispensed with.

Sie ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß das Zwischenteil mit jeweils einem dem oberen und dem unteren Behälterteil zugeordneten Dichtring versehen ist.It is characterized in that the intermediate part is provided with a respective sealing ring assigned to the upper and the lower container part.

In der FR-A 1 542 467 wird festgestellt, daß das zwischen beiden Kammern befindliche Teil enge Maßtoleranzen aufweisen muß. Aus diesem Hinweis läßt sich jedoch im Hinblick auf die erfindungsgemäße Ausgestaltung nichts entnehmen.FR-A 1 542 467 states that the part located between the two chambers must have narrow dimensional tolerances. However, nothing can be inferred from this reference with regard to the configuration according to the invention.

In den folgenden Figuren wird eine beispielhafte Ausführungsform der Erfindung wiedergegeben.An exemplary embodiment of the invention is shown in the following figures.

Dabei zeigt

  • Figur 1 eine Ansicht des komplettierten Zweikomponenten-Behältnisses von außen.
  • Figur 2 stellt einen Schnitt durch ein Behältnis nach Figur 1 dar.
  • Figur 3 gibt eine mögliche Ausführungsform der Behälterkupplung wieder.

  • Figure 2 shows a section through a container according to Figure 1.
  • Figure 3 shows a possible embodiment of the container coupling.

Figur 1 zeigt eine Außenansicht des integrierten Zweikomponenten-Behältnisses, wobei (1) die über dem oberen Behältnis (2) angebrachte Verschlußkappe und (3) das untere Behältnis darstellen, und (5) das mit einem Schraubelement ausgestattete Zwischenteil ist, in dessen Inneren sich der Öffnungsmechanismus in Form von beidseitigen Schneidkanten oder spitzen Dornen befindet.FIG. 1 shows an external view of the integrated two-component container, (1) representing the closure cap attached above the upper container (2) and (3) the lower container, and (5) the intermediate part equipped with a screw element, in the interior of which there is the opening mechanism is in the form of double-sided cutting edges or pointed spikes.

Figur 2 gibt einen Querschnitt durch das Behältnis nach Figur 1 wieder, wobei (1) wiederum einen Schraubverschluß, mit dem das Oberteil (2) verschlossen wird, darstellt.FIG. 2 shows a cross section through the container according to FIG. 1, with (1) again representing a screw closure with which the upper part (2) is closed.

Dieses Oberteil (2) ist mit dem unteren Behältnis (3) durch ein Mittelteil (5) verbunden, das mit je zwei Dichtringen (4) und Schneidringen (8) ausgestattet ist. Das Oberteil (2) ist an seiner Unterseite und das Unterteil (3) an seiner oberen Öffnung mit einer Folie (6) versiegelt, die vorzugsweise aus beidseitig mit Kunststoff beschichtetem Aluminium besteht und mit dem jeweiligen Behältermaterial verschweißt ist.This upper part (2) is connected to the lower container (3) by a central part (5) which is equipped with two sealing rings (4) and cutting rings (8). The upper part (2) is sealed on its underside and the lower part (3) on its upper opening with a film (6), which preferably consists of aluminum coated on both sides with plastic and is welded to the respective container material.

Figur 3 zeigt den Schraubmechanismus (7), mittels dessen das Mittelteil (5) durch Drehung so bewegt werden kann, daß durch die Schneidelemente (8) die Folien (6) zerstört werden und dadurch eine Vermischung der Inhalte der Behältnisse (2) und (3) möglich ist.Figure 3 shows the screw mechanism (7), by means of which the middle part (5) can be moved by rotation so that the cutting elements (8) destroy the foils (6) and thereby mix the contents of the containers (2) and ( 3) is possible.

Das Zerstören der Folien durch die Schneidelemente (8) oder analog angeordnete Dorne kann natürlich auch durch eine elastische Ausgestaltung des Mittelteils (5), das ein Zusammendrücken der Behältnisse gestattet, vorgesehen sein.The destruction of the foils by the cutting elements (8) or mandrels arranged analogously can of course also be provided by an elastic configuration of the central part (5), which allows the containers to be compressed.

Ebenso muß das Oberteil (2) nicht unbedingt durch eine Schraubkappe verschlossen sein, sondern kann jegliche beliebige bekannte Verschlußvorrichtung aufweisen.Likewise, the upper part (2) does not necessarily have to be closed by a screw cap, but can have any known closure device.

Das erfindungsgemäße Zweikomponenten-Behältnis eignet sich besonders zur Abgabe von Haarfärbemitteln auf Basis von Oxidationsfarbstoffen und Peroxiden, die bis zu ihrer Anwendung bekanntlich getrennt gehalten werden müssen.The two-component container according to the invention is particularly suitable for dispensing Hair dyes based on oxidation dyes and peroxides, which are known to have to be kept separate until they are used.
