Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging and distribution device in the sprayed form of a fluid product. More particularly, the invention concerns a miniature sprayer, preferably disposable, suitable for packaging in the form of a sample of cosmetic products, in particular perfumes or products to protect against harmful radiation from Sun.
  • the product is preferably liquid, but can also be in the form a powder with a small particle size.
  • Document US-A-4 328 912 describes a container for dispensing a product.
  • a reverse pressure is applied to the valve, so as to restore the shape hemispherical, thus allowing, in response to pressure exerted on the container walls, take out the product.
  • Documents US-A 5 332 121 and US-A-5 156 300 describe devices with flexible pocket placed inside a compressible container.
  • the product is arranged inside the flexible pocket.
  • the products to be distributed are viscosity important, and the outlet openings are of such diameter that, even if it were sought, which is generally not the case with ketchup, mustard or mayonnaise, the distribution in spray form of the product would be impossible to obtain.
  • a device for the spraying of a fluid product in particular a cosmetic product
  • a fluid product in particular a cosmetic product
  • said tank having flexible walls without sensitive shape memory
  • the device being equipped with a diffuser to spray the product in response to a pressure exerted on the flexible walls of the tank, an anti-return air element being provided for prevent any air entering the interior of the tank when said pressure ceases.
  • the average size of the particles or droplets is preferably at most 1 mm. Preferably, it is at most of the order of a few hundred ⁇ m. More preferably still, it ranges from 5 ⁇ m to 200 ⁇ m.
  • Such a characteristic distinguishes the container used according to the invention from certain containers, configured in particular in the form of bottles or tubes, for example polyethylene, and whose walls can be deformed to cause the product outlet through an outlet.
  • containers configured in particular in the form of bottles or tubes, for example polyethylene, and whose walls can be deformed to cause the product outlet through an outlet.
  • the pressure on the walls stops they have a natural tendency, due to their elasticity, to resume substantially the shape they had before being distorted. Air is then drawn into the container to compensate increasing the volume of the container.
  • the diffuser comprises a structure, in particular in the form of a nozzle, and crossed by at least one orifice through which the product is sprayed under form of a cloud of more or less fine droplets.
  • nozzles There are different types of nozzles, some having one or more vortex channels suitable for accelerate the liquid upstream of the outlet so as to produce even finer liquid particles.
  • the orifice through which the product is sprayed is of diameter between 0.2 mm and 1 mm, and preferably between 0.2 mm and 0.7 mm.
  • the device is configured so that the actuation pressure either directly applied to the walls whose internal surface is in contact with the spray product.
  • the inertia of the system is greatly reduced, and therefore distribution, in particular in spray form, is facilitated, this being indeed all the easier to obtain that the pressure is transmitted to the product of brutally.
  • the flexible walls can be formed of at least one layer of a material thermoplastic or metallic, or a multi-layer complex based on such materials, the reservoir being configured in the form of a tube, a pocket, or a bag.
  • the container is configured in the form of a sachet obtained by the superimposition of two sheets glued or welded along their edges peripheral devices.
  • the anti-return air element can be configured as an opening valve unidirectional so as to allow the exit of the product in response to a overpressure inside the tank and to oppose any entry of air to inside the tank when said overpressure ceases.
  • Such a valve can be made of a thermoplastic or crosslinked elastomer, in particular in silicone, natural or synthetic latex, EPDM, polyurethane, or flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
  • a thermoplastic or crosslinked elastomer in particular in silicone, natural or synthetic latex, EPDM, polyurethane, or flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
  • the unidirectional opening element can form a single piece with the nozzle, which favors mounting and holding in place.
  • the nozzle and the valve can be formed of two separate parts, in particular in different materials.
  • the diffuser can be mounted on the tank by gluing or welding, in particular at hot.
  • the device according to the invention is particularly suitable for packaging and the spraying, of a sample dose, of a cosmetic product, in particular a perfume or a product to protect against harmful radiation from Sun.
  • the device 1 shown in overview in Figure 1A and in sectional view FIG. 1B is configured in the form of a rectangular bag 2 obtained by the superposition of two sheets formed of a metallo-plastic complex, (PET / alu / PET) and connected by gluing or welding along their edges peripheral devices. Between the respective upper edges of the two sheets is fixed, in particular by gluing, a diffusion head 3.
  • a metallo-plastic complex PET / alu / PET
  • the diffusion head 3 is generally cylindrical in shape and has a part placed inside the bag 2. The other part emerges out of the bag.
  • the head of diffusion 3 includes an outer skirt 4 on the outer surface of which are glued corresponding portions of the upper edges of the bag 2.
  • the end of the skirt 4 disposed inside the bag 2 is open so as to be in communication with the product contained inside the bag 2.
  • the other end, located outside the bag 2, is closed by a transverse wall 5.
  • the outer skirt 4 has, on its part located outside of the bag 2 a orifice 6 formed at the end of a housing 7 oriented along a substantially Y axis perpendicular to an X axis of the diffusion head 3. At its end opposite to the orifice 6, the housing 7 is closed by a bottom 8.
  • the diffusion head 3 is obtained by molding a thermoplastic material, in particular of a polyethylene or of a polypropylene.
  • a lug 9 protrudes relative to the bottom 8.
  • a free end of the lug 9 is slightly behind the plane of the orifice 6.
  • the lug 9 forms a center-post, delimiting with the surface interior of a nozzle 10, a chamber with one or more vortex channels, intended to accelerate the liquid before passing through an outlet 11 passing through the nozzle 10 and oriented along the Y axis of the housing 7.
  • the channel chamber eddy as well as outlet 11 are selectively supplied via an orifice 12 passing through the bottom 8 of the housing 7.
  • the nozzle is produced by example in polyethylene or polypropylene.
  • the nozzle 10 is mounted on the diffusion head 3 by any suitable means : bonding, welding, clamping, or snap-fastening.
  • the internal surface of the nozzle 10 includes a skirt portion 13, one of which free end is used to hold an elastomeric annular element 14 in engagement against the bottom 8 of the housing 7, and facing the orifice 12.
  • the annular element 14 behaves like an opening valve unidirectional and can, under the pressure of the product contained in the bag 2, flex in the direction of the housing 7 so as to allow the product to pass through orifice 12. The product can then feed the vortex channel chamber and be sprayed via the outlet orifice 11.
  • the peripheral edge of the valve 14 being, in the absence of overpressure on the side of the bag 2, bearing against an annular seat 15 formed by the bottom 8 of the housing 7, the valve 14 cannot open the other way. Thus, especially when the distribution of product, air cannot be drawn into the bag 2 via the orifice 12.
  • valve 14 When the pressure on the walls of the bag 2 ceases, the valve 14 returns by elastic return bearing on the seat 15 and thus opposes any air intake in direction of the bag 2. In the absence of appreciable elasticity of the walls of the bag 2, these retain the deformation resulting from the pressure they have undergone. Thus, even after only part of the contents of sachet 2 have been distributed, the liquid permanently occupies almost the entire volume of the sachet. Therefore, at each new use, the spraying is immediate and of good quality.
