Description

Agitateur pour produits chimiques contenus dans des bidons.Agitator for chemicals contained in cans.

Objet de l'inventionObject of the invention

La présente invention concerne un agitateur pour produits chimiques, tels que des vernis, des peintures ou similaires, qui sont inclus dans un bidon, directement en contact avec lui, ou dans un sac en plastique qui occupe tout son volume.The present invention relates to an agitator for chemicals, such as varnishes, paints or similar, which are included in a can, directly into contact with him, or in a plastic bag that occupies any its volume.

Antécédents de l'inventionHistory of the invention

Actuellement on commercialise divers produits chimiques, particulièrement du vernis ou de la peinture, dans des bidons pourvus d'un couvercle extractible, généralement pourvu d'un orifice de sortie dans lequel on accouple un bouchon. Dans certains produits, on inclut intérieurement un sac en plastique contenant le produit en évitant le contact de celui-ci avec le bidon normalement métallique. Dans la plupart des cas, il s'agit de produits qui ont besoin d'une agitation préalable à leur utilisation; pour cela, on retire le couvercle et on effectue une agitation manuelle ou avec un agitateur conventionnel, avec le risque conséquent d'éclaboussures pour l'ouvrier, qui en s'agissant de produits ayant une certaine dangerosité, il est nécessaire d'éviter car ils peuvent provoquer des brûlures ou des troubles dans la peau.Currently we market various chemicals, especially varnish or paint, in cans provided with an extractable lid, usually provided with a outlet orifice in which a plug is coupled. In certain products, we include internally a bag made of plastic containing the product avoiding the contact of it with the normally metallic can. In most case, these are products that need some agitation prior to their use; for that, we remove the lid and perform a manual stirring or with a conventional agitator, with consequent risk of splashing for the worker, who in the case of products having a certain dangerousness, it is necessary to avoid they can cause burns or disorders in the skin.

Les agitateurs existants sont formés par des tiges similaires à un batteur, qui terminent en un axe qui s'accouple à une perceuse et qui introduite dans le bidon permet de mélanger adéquatement le produit, mais il existe le risque d'éclaboussure pour l'ouvrier (US.5.417.593. Le document US-3.704.007 décrit un agitateur pour un bidon de peinture pourvu d'un couvercle avec une perforation centrale à travers laquelle sorte une tige, qui extérieurement définit une manivelle et intérieurement présente des plis en accord au bidon. On connaít également un agitateur présentant une structure conique à l'intérieur de laquelle tournent des palettes montées sur un axe vertical qui est actionné depuis l'extérieur du réservoir au moyen d'une manivelle (ES-U200101793).Existing agitators are formed by rods similar to a drummer, which end in an axis that copulates with a drill and which is introduced into the can allows to properly mix the product, but there is the risk of splashing for the worker (US 5,417,593). US-3 704 007 discloses an agitator for a paint can provided with a lid with a central hole through which kind of a stem, which outwardly defines a crank and internally presents folds in accordance with can. Also known is an agitator having a conical structure inside which turn pallets mounted on a vertical axis that is operated from the outside of the tank by means of a crank (ES-U200101793).

Description de l'inventionDescription of the invention

L'agitateur pour produits chimiques contenus dans des bidons, tels que des vernis, des peintures ou analogues, objet de la présente invention, comprend une structure support constituée par un couvercle analogue à celui d'un bidon conventionnel, qui incorpore au centre un axe vertical pourvu inférieurement de palettes agitatrices, et présente supérieurement une série d'engrenages, empilés du plus grand diamètre au plus petit, qui constituent un multiplicateur ou diviseur de force, monté avec la possibilité de rotation dans une carcasse présentant une série d'entailles latérales échelonnées dans lesquelles repose une plaque transversale qui incorpore un engrenage, qui s'accouple dans un des engrenages de l'axe de l'agitateur pour conformer un changement manuel de vitesse en dépendant de l'engrenage sur lequel elle agit dans chaque cas, en obtenant ainsi une utilisation universelle pour tout produit indépendamment de sa viscosité; l'axe de cet engrenage émerge supérieurement à travers le couvercle de cette carcasse et il présente à son extrémité un moyen d'accouplement pour son actionnement au moyen d'une manivelle ou une perceuse.The agitator for chemicals contained in cans, such as varnishes, paints or the like, object of the present invention, comprises a support structure constituted by a lid similar to that of a can conventional, which incorporates in the center a vertical axis inferiorly of agitating pallets, and presents superiorly a series of gears, stacked from the largest diameter to the smallest, which constitute a multiplier or force divider, mounted with the possibility of rotation in a carcass having a series of lateral notches in which a transverse plate incorporates a gear, which mates into one of the gears of the axis of the agitator to conform a manual change of speed depending on the gear on which it acts in each case, thus obtaining universal use for any product regardless of its viscosity; the axis of this gear emerges superiorly through the lid of this carcass and has at its end a means of coupling for its operation by means of a crank or a drill.

Dans un cas, on a prévu que les palettes de l'agitateur incorporent sur leur base une bague périphérique qui, lors de son introduction dans un sac en plastique, elle évite que l'action des palettes de l'agitateur ne provoque sa rupture. Dans une autre solution constructive que l'on présente, lesdites palettes son pliantes, elles s'introduisent allongés dans le bidon et au moment arrivé de mettre en marche l'agitateur, on tire légèrement sur l'axe et elles s'ouvrent, en demeurant alignées en position opérationnelle.In one case, it was provided that the pallets of the agitator incorporate on their base a peripheral ring which, when its introduction into a plastic bag, it avoids that the action of the pallets of the agitator causes its rupture. In another constructive solution that we present, said pallets are folding, they are introduced elongated in the can and at the moment happened to turn on agitator, one pulls slightly on the axis and they open, remaining aligned in operational position.

On a aussi prévu que l'axe vertical de l'agitateur sera télescopique, celui-ci étant formé par deux tubes qui sont introduits l'un dans l'autre à diverses positions pré-établies, qui permettent s'adapter aux dimensions différentes du bidon sans avoir besoin de changer d'agitateur.It has also been planned that the vertical axis of the agitator will be telescopic, the latter being formed by two tubes which are introduced into each other at various pre-established positions, which allow to adapt to the different dimensions of the can without the need to change agitator.

Le couvercle de la carcasse dans laquelle est caché le mécanisme d'engrenage entre l'axe de l'agitateur et l'axe d'actionnement présente extérieurement des moyens de fixation d'un support pour le serrage d'une perceuse en position verticale, angulaire, ou d'une tête pneumatique, ou d'une poulie actionnée par un moteur externe, qui lorsqu'il est accouplé dans l'axe et en établissant sa vitesse et le changement de vitesse adéquates, on le laisse en marche pendant un délai indéfini pour éviter, par exemple, le durcissement de certaines substances avant de leur application. Ce couvercle du bidon présente aussi un orifice pour l'insertion d'un tube et optionnellement pour l'accouplement d'une pompe manuelle ou pneumatique pour l'extraction graduelle du produit ou pour y accoupler une sonde d'absorption d'un dispositif d'application ou de projection de produit.The cover of the carcass in which is hidden the gear mechanism between the axis of the agitator and the axis actuator externally having fastening means a support for tightening a drill in position vertical, angular, or pneumatic head, or a pulley powered by an external motor, which when it is coupled in the axis and establishing its speed and the gear change, it is left running for an indefinite period of time to avoid, for example, hardening of certain substances before their application. This lid of can also has a hole for the insertion of a tube and optionally for coupling a manual pump or tire for the gradual extraction of the product or for to couple an absorption probe of an application device or product projection.

Cet agitateur peut être complémenté avec une pompe de soutirage du contenu du récipient à l'extérieur, pompe qui est une vis sans fin introduite dans un tube qui est actionnée à travers le réducteur de l'agitateur ou d'un autre similaire. Le propre axe de l'agitateur peut être muni d'une forme extérieurement hélicoïdale et s'introduire dans un tube, en pouvant obtenir de la sorte en même temps les deux fonctions d'agitation et d'extraction du produit, et dans ce cas il est nécessaire de prévoir la possibilité du retour du produit au récipient par une conduite auxiliaire pour les cas où l'on ne souhaite qu'agiter et non pas effectuer les deux fonctions.This agitator can be supplemented with a pump of withdrawal of the contents of the container outside, which pump is a worm introduced into a tube which is actuated to through the agitator reducer or other similar. The agitator's own axis can be provided with a shape externally helical and to be inserted into a tube, able to obtain both functions at the same time agitation and extraction of the product, and in this case it is necessary to provide for the possibility of returning the product to container by an auxiliary line for cases where one can not wish that stir and not perform both functions.

    • Mode de réalisation préféré de l'inventionPreferred embodiment of the invention

    Dans les figures on observe l'agitateur pour produits chimiques contenus dans des bidons du type de ceux qui servent habituellement pour le transport et la vente de vernis, peintures ou analogues, soit directement en contact avec le bidon ou dans un sac en plastique qui occupe tout son volume. Le dit agitateur comprend une structure support constituée par un couvercle (1) analogue à celui d'un bidon (2) conventionnel, au centre duquel on incorpore un axe (3) vertical qui présente inférieurement des palettes (4) d'agitation, tandis que supérieurement ledit axe présente fixés sur lui une série d'engrenages (5) empilés du plus grand diamètre au plus petit, montés sur la carcasse (6) avec la possibilité de rotation.In the figures the agitator for products is observed chemicals contained in cans of the type that serve usually for the transport and sale of polish, paintings or the like, either directly in contact with the can or in a plastic bag that occupies all its volume. Said stirrer comprises a support structure constituted by a lid (1) similar to that of a conventional container (2), at the center of which is incorporated a vertical axis (3) which presents inferiorly of the stirring vanes (4) while superiorly said axis presents fixed on him a series gears (5) stacked from the largest diameter to the smallest, mounted on the carcass (6) with the possibility of rotation.

    La carcasse (6) est protégée par un couvercle (7), qui présente une série d'entailles latérales (8) échelonnées dans l'une quelconque desquelles repose une plaque (9) transversale qui incorpore un engrenage (10). En dépendant de la position sélectionnée, l'engrenage (10) s'accouple dans un des engrenages (5) de l'axe agitateur, en modifiant ainsi le rapport de vitesse entre l'axe primaire d'actionnement et le secondaire de l'agitateur. L'axe primaire (11) émerge supérieurement à travers le couvercle (7) pour son actionnement au moyen d'une manivelle (12) ou une perceuse (13); à cet effet, le couvercle (7) présente optionnellement à l'extérieur un support pour la fixation de la perceuse (13) pour que le dispositif fonctionne d'une manière autonome.The carcass (6) is protected by a cover (7), which has a series of lateral notches (8) staggered in any of which rests a plate (9) cross which incorporates a gear (10). Depending on the position selected, the gear (10) couples into one of the gears (5) of the agitator shaft, thus modifying the speed ratio between the primary axis of actuation and the secondary agitator. The primary axis (11) emerges superiorly through the cover (7) for its actuation by means of a crank (12) or a drill (13); In this effect, the cover (7) optionally has the outside a support for fixing the drill (13) so that the device works in an autonomous way.

    L'agitateur présente deux ou plus de palettes montées dans l'axe (3), de préférence par des moyens qui permettent son montage et démontage ou pliage jusqu'à se positionner dans un même plan; en présentant à leur base une bague (14) périphérique qui dans les cas où l'agitateur s'introduit dans le sac contenant le produit, elle évite que l'impact des palettes (4) sur celui-ci provoque sa rupture. Dans les figures 4 et 5 on a représenté un mode de réalisation dans lequel les palettes (4') sont articulées dans une plaque (15) fixe à l'extrémité de l'axe (3) et elles sont serrées avec des tenseurs (17) avec une bague (18) qui glisse sur l'axe (3) par l'interposition d'un ressort (16) dans la zone inférieure ; tout cela de manière à ce qu'initialement, l'agitateur s'introduise dans le bidon (2) à la position de la figure 4 et avant de mettre en marche l'appareil on doit tirer sur l'axe (3) pour mettre les palettes (4') à la position horizontale comme il est indiqué dans la figure 4.The agitator has two or more pallets mounted in the axis (3), preferably by means which allow its assembly and disassembly or folding to position themselves in a same plane; presenting at their base a ring (14) device that in cases where the agitator is introduced into the bag containing the product, it avoids the impact of pallets (4) on it causes it to break. In the figures 4 and 5 there is shown an embodiment in which the pallets (4 ') are articulated in a plate (15) fixed to the end of the shaft (3) and they are tightened with tensors (17) with a ring (18) which slides on the shaft (3) by interposing a spring (16) in the lower zone; all this so that initially the agitator can be introduced into the can (2) at the position of FIG. before turning on the device one must pull the axis (3) to set the pallets (4 ') to the horizontal position as shown in Figure 4.

    L'axe vertical (3) de l'agitateur, comme on peut observer dans les figures, est télescopique et il est formé par deux tubes qui s'introduisent l'un dans l'autre en se fixant à diverses positions préétablies au moyen d'un goujon ou d'un moyen similaire.The vertical axis (3) of the agitator, as can be seen in the figures, is telescopic and it is formed by two tubes that get into each other by attaching themselves to various pre-established positions by means of a dowel or a similar way.

    Dans la figure 6 on peut observer un agitateur incorporant deux moyens de pompage, logiquement, il faudra en mettre en place uniquement un de ceux représentés pour obtenir l'extraction du contenu. Les deux sont formés par un axe hélicoïdal monté à l'intérieur d'un tube, celui ayant la référence numérique (19) est indépendant et il peut être actionné depuis le réducteur de l'agitateur ou depuis une autre connexion auxiliaire, tandis que celui ayant la référence (20) partage l'axe avec l'agitateur, ce qui fait que lorsque l'on agite, on extrait aussi le produit. Le produit extrait est canalisé par un tube (22) et en cas de ne pas vouloir extraire du produit le récipient (2) est retourné à travers la dérivation (21) .In FIG. 6, an agitator incorporating two means of pumping, logically, it will be necessary to put in place only one of those represented to get extracting the content. Both are formed by an axis coil mounted inside a tube, the one having the reference number (19) is independent and can be actuated from the agitator reducer or from another auxiliary connection, while the one having the reference (20) shares the axis with the agitator, so that when one stirred, the product is also extracted. The extracted product is channeled by a tube (22) and in case of not wanting to extract of the product the container (2) is returned through the derivation (21).

    Une fois suffisamment décrite la nature de l'invention, ainsi qu'un exemple de réalisation préféré, il faut remarquer aux effets opportuns que les matières, forme, dimensions et disposition des éléments décrits pourront être modifiés, si toutefois cela ne suppose pas une altération des caractéristiques essentielles de l'invention revendiquées à la suite.Once the nature of the invention has been sufficiently described, as well as a preferred embodiment, it should be noted timely effects that the materials, shape, dimensions and provision of the elements described may be modified, if however, this does not imply an alteration of the essential features of the invention claimed in the after.
