Definitions
- the invention relates to a bag valve for a pressure vessel, in particular pressure cans, for applying viscous to pasty products, comprising a valve disk, a valve body arranged on the valve body, a guided in a central recess of the valve body star with at least one releasable by actuation of the star inlet opening for the product contained in the bag, at least one outlet opening, an elastic element acting on the star, sealing elements acting between valve plate and valve body and between valve body and star and a bag arranged on the valve for the product to be dispensed through the valve.
- the invention further relates to a pressure cell with such a bag valve.
- Pressure cans for dispensing viscous to pasty substances have long been known and in use. Applications are found, for example, in the food sector (cake decoration), in hygiene products (toothpaste) as well as in cosmetics.
- this piston cans are used, in which a piston divides the pressure cell into an upper and a lower part, wherein in the upper part, below the valve, the protagonistde product is located and in the lower part, below the piston and above the bottom, a propellant gas , In such pressure doses on the one hand, the often insufficient separation of product and blowing agent is problematic and on the other hand, the introduction of both the product and the blowing agent consuming.
- a second valve in the bottom of the can is needed for filling the propellant in particular a second valve in the bottom of the can is needed. The second valve and the piston as well as the filling devices increase the cost of the cans and the product significantly.
- bags of pouches contain the product separated from the propellant gas.
- the same problems arise in the filling with propellant gas, as in the case of the above-described piston can.
- the bag is placed on the valve, filling of the product with the valve is required, which is time consuming and expensive and at the same time pollutes the valve. Due to the design of the valve systems is the Filling speed limited.
- the introduction of the propellant gas requires either a special design of the main valve or a second valve in the bottom of the can.
- Such bags are not suitable for products with a viscosity of more than 50 Pas. They are used, for example, in shaving gels.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide a pressure cell with which stored in a bag viscous and pasty substances can be discharged by means of a propellant.
- Such a bag of bags should be inexpensive to manufacture, easy to fill and safe to use.
- a bag valve of the type mentioned in which the bag is fixed to a holding element having a central passage, wherein the holding member has a laterally extending retaining plate which sealingly connected to a can side vertically extending collar of the valve body is.
- the object is further achieved with a pressure cell, which is equipped with such a bag valve.
- the bag valve according to the invention avoids the disadvantages of the prior art. On the one hand, product and blowing agent are safely separated from one another as desired.
- the special design of the valve with a holding element allows the filling of the bag with a product, even inside the pressure box, before mounting the valve and pressurizing the pressure box with propellant. It can be used conventional pressure cans that need to be equipped only with the bag valve of the invention.
- the terms “valve-side” and “can-side” here refer to an orientation towards the valve or to the inside of the can, in the vertical direction. Accordingly, “inwards” and “out of cans” - in the horizontal - an orientation to the can edge or can axis to understand.
- the bag valve according to the invention is derived from a conventional solids valve for the application of polyurethane-based mounting foams, as described for example in EP 2 028 131 A1 and EP 3 044 123 A1.
- the bag valve according to the invention is intended and suitable for the application of viscous to pasty products from a pressure cell using a propellant. It relies on a common solid valve that is modified for this purpose.
- a solids valve is usually made of a polyalkylene, such as polypropylene, by injection molding.
- the conventional part of the valve consists of a valve disk, a valve body arranged on the valve body having a central recess in which a star is guided, wherein the valve has a releasable by actuation of the star inlet opening for the bag contents. The operation is carried out in particular by impressing the star.
- An elastic element which is connected to the star, causes the return of the valve in the closed state after actuation. Between the valve plate and the valve body and between the valve body and star sealing elements are arranged.
- the product bag is mounted on the can end of the valve.
- the valve body on the can side, a circumferential collar, which goes beyond the can end of the star.
- the bag is mounted on a support member having a central passageway and connected to the collar via a retaining plate extending laterally (outwardly of the socket). The compound is gas and liquid tight.
- the retaining plate of the retaining element can be glued or welded to the collar of the valve.
- the connection can be made, for example, by welding with ultrasound (HF welding). But is preferably a snap-in or snap connection, which allows easy locking of the holding plate with the already mounted bag and the collar of the valve. It is understood that between the holding plate and collar, a sealing element must be arranged.
- a latching or snap connection can be effected, for example, via a projection arranged outside on the circumferential collar of the valve body and latching hooks arranged peripherally on the retaining plate.
- the principle of such snap-in connections is known per se.
- the locking connection is created permanently, a separation of valve and retaining plate is not provided.
- the required seal can be provided for example by an O-ring, which is arranged marginally in a receptacle of the holding plate and seals against the can-side end of the collar.
- the can-side end of the collar can be bevelled inwards, in such a way that the bevel faces the can axis and the O-ring seals against this bevel.
- Such a slope provides a particularly good and lasting contact between the seal and collar of the valve body, which protects against loss of propellant during storage of a filled pressure cell.
- An advantage of the pressure cell according to the invention is corresponding to the low propellant loss during storage time and service life.
- the required seal also by a formed on the outer edge of the retaining plate or molded sealing element, which consists for example of a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).
- TPE thermoplastic elastomer
- Such plastic products consisting of two different materials can be produced, for example, in a 2K injection process. Even with a molded sealing element, the sealing effect comes about through the tight and sealing contact between retaining plate and collar.
- the can-side edge of the collar may be bevelled inwardly as described above for the O-ring.
- the product bag is fixed to a central pin of the retaining element. It is understood that the central bore of the holding element extends through this pin.
- the pin itself may be round, but also take any other shape that is compatible with the purpose, such as polygonal, in particular square, diamond-shaped or teardrop-shaped. The determination is made in particular by gluing or welding, such as ultrasound. A horizontal circumferential filling of the pin is advantageous, especially during assembly.
- the bag itself is preferably made of plastic and multilayered.
- the multi-layer design increases the tear strength and prevents the tearing of the bag from the retaining element after filling. It is understood that to improve the tightness of composite materials of several plastics or aluminum can be used. Also, the metallizing a plastic film for the bag is possible.
- the valve part of the bag valve according to the invention is essentially designed according to EP 2 028 131 A1.
- the valve body has a circumferential groove around the star, in which the elastic element is mounted.
- the elastic element engages around the star and, in addition to the spring action (resetting effect after actuation of the valve), brings with it an additional sealing effect against the star.
- the elastic element preferably consists of a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).
- a coil spring can be used. Particularly useful is also a combination of coil spring and thermoplastic elastomer.
- As an abutment for the elastic element at the valve-side end of the star is a retaining ring made of a durable plastic, such as polyoxymethylene.
- the invention further relates to such a bag valve equipped pressure vessel, in particular pressure cans.
- blowing agent in such pressure doses for example, nitrogen or another inert gas, air or a conventional propellant gas, for example, a liquefied petroleum gas or a liquid gas mixture (propane, butane, dimethyl ether) serve.
- the bag valve according to the invention allows a particularly efficient filling of pressure cans.
- the holding element is connected to the bag, ultrasonically welded and the bag hooked into the still open topped pressure box.
- the retaining element remains outside the pressure box.
- the bag can now be filled.
- the holding plate of the combination of holding element and filled bag is connected to the collar of the valve, for example by latching or by ultrasonic welding.
- the pressure cell is then filled with propellant, wherein the pressure is in the range of 2 to 14 bar, and - even under the bell jar - the valve disk crimped with the can dome. After labeling and packaging the box is ready to ship.
