Definitions
- the present invention relates to a dispensing head for a fluid dispenser, such as a pump or a valve.
- a fluid dispenser such as a pump or a valve.
- This type of dispenser is often used in the field of perfumery, cosmetics or even pharmacy to dispense a fluid product from a reservoir which is often in the form of a bottle.
- the pump or the valve generally comprises a movable actuating member or pusher.
- the dispensing head can be directly integrated into the pusher, but in some cases, the dispensing head can be independent of the pusher: this is called a fixed spray dispenser. Consequently, in the present invention, the expression “dispensing head” can designate a pusher incorporating a dispensing orifice or another part of the pump or of the valve which incorporates the dispensing orifice.
- dispensing orifice By dispensing orifice is meant a final outlet opening through which the fluid leaves the dispenser. Beyond the orifice, the fluid product is in the form of a jet, possibly sprayed, a drop, a thread depending on the type of fluid product (lotion, perfume, cream, gel, etc. ) and the desired distribution.
- the dispensing head forms a free front surface at the level of which the dispensing orifice opens outwards.
- This free front surface is the visible surface of the head which extends all around the dispensing orifice.
- the fluid dispensed can be in the form of a jet of sprayed droplets or in the form of a dose of rather pasty fluid which is dispensed and collected at this free front surface.
- the free front surface is perfectly visible to the user of the dispenser and that it constitutes a part of the dispenser which the user tends to notice easily because the product dispensed opens out at this location, it would be advantageous if this surface has an attractive aesthetic appearance. It is therefore an object of the present invention to improve the aesthetics of the free front surface of a dispensing head.
- the present invention provides that the dispensing head comprises a covering which extends over a part of the free front surface and which comprises means for fixing it to the head.
- the aesthetic touch is therefore provided by the covering which partially and aesthetically masks part of the free front surface, of course leaving the dispensing orifice clear.
- the covering is in a way an accessory to the dispensing head which allows easy and aesthetic personalization, depending on the nature of the product or the brand of the product.
- the covering does not form or even complete the dispensing orifice: it does not fulfill any functional role in the distribution of the fluid product.
- the dispensing opening alone ensures the final distribution of the fluid product in the form of a jet, spray, net, drop, etc.
- the dispensing head comprises a body forming a fluid outlet duct leading into a housing and a dispensing element forming the dispensing orifice and disposed in the housing of the body so that the duct outlet communicates with the dispensing orifice.
- the dispensing element protrudes out of the housing so that its free front surface is offset in front with respect to the body, the means for fixing the covering cooperating with a peripheral surface of the dispensing element which s extends around the free frontal surface.
- the dispensing element is pressed into the housing so that its free front surface is located inside the housing, the means for fixing the covering cooperating with an internal wall of the housing.
- an annular groove is defined between the distribution element and an internal wall of the housing, the means for fixing the covering being inserted into said groove.
- the means for fixing the covering extend around the body.
- the body and the dispensing element are formed in one piece.
- the dispensing head can comprise a body forming the dispensing orifice, the covering extending to the less partially around said body.
- the dressing can then be in the form of a ring embedded around the body of the head.
- the covering forms an opening which at least partially masks the front free surface in which the dispensing orifice is formed.
- the covering remains out of contact with the fluid product dispensed through the dispensing orifice.
- the covering extends at least partially around the dispensing orifice.
- FIGS. 1 a and 1 b are respectively vertical and front cross-section views of a dispensing head according to a first embodiment of the invention
- FIGS. 4a and 4b are views similar to the previous figures for a fourth embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 5a and 5b are views similar to the previous figures for a fifth embodiment of the invention.
- the dispensing head according to the invention is in the form of a pusher intended to be mounted at the upper end of a pump or valve actuating rod.
- the pusher comprises a body 1 which forms a connection sleeve 12 to the interior of which the upper end of an actuating rod can be forcibly inserted.
- the sleeve 12 is surrounded by a skirt 11 which masks the actuating rod.
- the pusher defines a dispensing orifice through which the fluid product dispensed by the valve or discharged by the pump is ejected outside.
- the actuating rod of the pump or of the valve must incorporate an internal discharge conduit through which the fluid from the pump or of the valve is repressed. Consequently, the fluid product coming from the pump or the valve arrives in the pusher just above the connection sleeve 12.
- the body 1 forms at this point an outlet conduit 14 which communicates downstream with the dispensing orifice which opens at the level of the skirt 11.
- the dispensing head is not incorporated in a pusher intended to actuate the pump or the valve.
- the dispensing orifice is a fixed orifice relative to the body of the pump or of the valve.
- the plunger is completely separate from the dispensing head and is only used to activate the pump or the valve.
- the dispensing head can in this case be directly incorporated into the body of the pump or of the valve or form a separate piece fixedly mounted on the body of the pump or of the valve or else on a fixing ring of the pump or of the valve. Consequently, the present invention is not limited to a pusher incorporating the dispensing orifice.
- the five embodiments of the figures relate to a traditional pusher incorporating the orifice of distribution.
- the body 1 of the pusher defines, in addition to the skirt 11, the connection sleeve 12 and the outlet channel 14, a core 15 which is surrounded by an annular housing 16 which communicates with the outlet duct 14.
- the housing 16 is formed in the skirt 11.
- the core 15 defines an end surface in which are formed swirl channels and a swirl chamber 17.
- the pusher also comprises a dispensing element 2 which forms the dispensing orifice 21 at a free front surface 22 which is visible, since it is located outside the pusher.
- the distribution element 2 also forms a fixing sleeve 23 which is forcibly engaged in the annular housing 16 formed around the core 15.
- the fixing sleeve 23 can be provided with hooking or harpooning teeth capable of biting into the internal wall 161 of the housing 16.
- the distribution element 2 is engaged in the housing 16 until the internal face of the wall defining the orifice of distribution 21 comes into tight sealed contact against the end surface of the core 15 where the channels and the swirl chamber are formed 17.
- this internal face of the distribution element isolates the swirl channels and completes the chamber by placing the dispensing orifice 21 precisely in the center of the swirl chamber 17.
- the swirl channels (not shown) communicate with each other. directly with the outlet duct 14, so that the fluid product discharged by the pump or the valve arrives at the dispensing orifice 21 through the outlet duct 14, the housing 16, the swirl channels and the swirl chamber 17.
- This is a completely conventional design for a pusher intended to be mounted on the hollow actuating rod of a pump or a valve.
- the free front surface 22 of the dispensing element 2 which surrounds the dispensing orifice 21 can be perfectly flat, or have a profile as is the case in the embodiments of FIGS. 1, 2 and 3. In this In this case, the free front surface 22 forms a diffusion cone which promotes and guides the spray of sprayed product, when it is a dispenser of sprayable fluid.
- the free front surface can also be perfectly flat as is the case in the embodiment of FIGS. 4.
- the free front surface 22 of the dispensing element 2 is partially masked or covered by a covering 3 which has an opening 31 through which the free front surface 22 and the dispensing orifice are visible.
- the contour 32 of the opening 31 can have the most varied shapes so as to be able to impart an attractive aesthetic appearance to the opening 31, and thus to the whole of the pusher.
- the covering 3 comprises means for fixing to the dispensing head which depend on the shape and the arrangement of the dispensing element 2 relative to the body 1.
- the dispensing element 2 is certainly engaged in the housing 16 by means of the fixing sleeve 23, but its front surface 22 protrudes outward and forward with respect to the body 1, and more particularly with respect to its outer cylindrical skirt 11. Consequently, the free front surface 22 is surrounded by a substantially cylindrical peripheral surface 24 which extends in the extension of the fixing sleeve 23.
- the covering 3 can form a fixing flange 331 intended to come into engagement with the peripheral surface 24 of the distribution element 2. The covering 3 can thus be held in place on the distribution element by a simple commitment in force. It should be noted that the fitting of the covering does not require any modification of the pusher.
- the periphery 32 of the opening 31 is of square shape and that the front surface 22 and the orifice 21 are visible through this opening 31.
- the square opening is only an example, certainly can be aesthetic, but we can easily understand that it is very easy to train the opening 31 with a contour 32 very aesthetic. It is the same for the outer periphery of the covering 3 which may have an aesthetic shape.
- the covering 3 masks the junction of the distribution element 2 in the housing 16 of the body 1. Consequently, the housing 16 and / or the distribution element does not need to be finished with a perfect aesthetics.
- the core 15 of the body 1 is located somewhat more inside the housing 16 than in the first embodiment.
- the distribution element 2 is also forcibly engaged in the housing 16 with the fixing sleeve 23 of the distribution element 2 in engagement with the internal wall 161 of the housing 16. Since the housing 16 is deeper, in due to the reduced size of the core 15, the free front surface 22 of the dispensing element 2 is located inside the housing 16.
- the covering 3 can be inserted inside the housing 16 and held in place against the free front surface 22. To do this, the covering 3 is in the form of a disc or a ring pierced in its center with an opening 31 having a periphery 32 of square shape as can see it in Figure 2b.
- the outer peripheral edge 332 of the disc engages the inner wall 161 of the housing 16. Again, the installation of the covering 3 is very simple, since it is sufficient to simply plug into the interior of the housing 16, and it is not necessary to modify the pusher to receive the covering 3.
- the distribution element 2 is also forcibly engaged in the housing 16 formed around the core 15 defining the channels and the swirl chamber 17.
- an annular groove is defined around the distribution element 2.
- the fixing sleeve 23 of the distribution element 2 is forcibly engaged in the housing 16, but the front part of the sleeve 23 is located in a groove 17 which defines a peripheral ring finger.
- the covering 3 also comprises a fixing sleeve 333 which is forcibly engaged in this annular groove 17 to come into engagement both with the fixing sleeve 23 and the internal wall of this groove 17.
- the opening 31 has a square outline 32 through which the front surface free 22 and the dispensing orifice 21 are visible.
- the installation of the covering 3 is also very simple and does not require modification of the pusher.
- the dispensing element 2 is also forcibly engaged in the housing 16 and held in place by means of its fixing sleeve 23.
- the dispensing orifice 21 of the 'distribution element 2 is centered on the swirl chamber 17 formed in the core 15.
- the covering 3 also includes an opening 31 bordered by a square periphery 32 as can be seen in Figure 4b.
- the covering 3 is in the form of a cylindrical sleeve 334 which is fitted onto the peripheral skirt 11 of the body 1. The final position of the sleeve 334 is reached when its lower end abuts on a shoulder 110 formed by the skirt 11.
- the covering 3 covers not only the free front surface of the dispensing element 2, but also the body 1. Due to its very design simple (cylindrical sleeve), it is very easy and inexpensive to decorate the covering over its entire cylindrical periphery. We can thus stylize any button 1.
- the dispensing orifice and the free front surface are formed directly by the body 1, and not by an attached dispensing element.
- the core 15 ′ defining the channels and the swirl chamber 217 are formed by an insert inserted inside a blind housing which opens out at the rear of the body 1 in a diametrically opposite manner to the dispensing orifice 121.
- This core 15 ' is held in position by a plug 4 which closes the housing.
- the housing also forms the outlet duct 14 which communicates with the dispensing orifice 121. This is a particular embodiment in which the dispensing orifice 121 is formed directly by the body 1.
- the covering 3 can be strictly identical to that of FIGS. 4a and 4b, that is to say forming a cylindrical sleeve 334 pierced with an opening 31 and engaged by fitting on the body 1 of way to dress it almost totally.
- the covering 3 masks the plug 4 at the opening of the housing. Again, the covering 3 can be put in place without modification of the pusher.
- this covering which is added to a conventional dispensing head without modification, it is possible to stylize the environment of the dispensing orifice, and even of the entire dispensing head.
