Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un embout de distribution comportant une partie d'extrémité sécable.The present invention relates to a dispensing nozzle comprising a breakable end part.
On connaít de nombreux embouts de distribution dans lesquels la partie d'extrémité est détachée du corps de l'embout par un mouvement de rotation autour de l'axe de l'embout.We know many distribution tips in which the part end is detached from the body of the end piece by a rotational movement around the axis of the nozzle.
Dans de tels embouts de distribution, la partie d'extrémité s'étend dans le prolongement du corps de l'embout, au-dessus de la zone de cassure.In such dispensing tips, the end portion extends into the extension of the tip body, above the break zone.
Ces embouts de distribution offrent satisfaction lorsqu'ils sont réalisés d'un seul tenant avec de petits flacons conditionnés en bandes et contenant une faible quantité de produit.These distribution nozzles offer satisfaction when made of in one piece with small vials packed in strips and containing a small quantity of product.
Par contre, lorsqu'un récipient contenant une quantité relativement importante de produit, équipé d'un embout de distribution comportant une partie d'extrémité sécable telle que définie plus haut, est placé dans une boíte en carton avec une possibilité de déplacement à l'intérieur de celle-ci, on a constaté que les chocs du récipient contre les parois de la boíte au cours du transport pouvaient entraíner le basculement de la partie d'extrémité autour d'un axe transversal à l'axe de l'embout au point de provoquer le détachement accidentel de la partie d'extrémité.On the other hand, when a container containing a relatively large quantity of product, fitted with a dispensing nozzle having a breakable end part as defined above, is placed in a cardboard box with a possibility of movement inside it, it was found that the impacts of the container against walls of the box during transport could cause the part to tip over end around an axis transverse to the axis of the nozzle to the point of causing the accidental detachment of the end part.
La fuite de produit qui en résulte peut alors rendre impropre à la vente tout un lot de marchandises.The resulting product leakage can then make any product unfit for sale. a batch of goods.
On connaít par le brevet français FR 2 331 491 un embout comportant une partie d'extrémité sécable apte à être séparée du corps de l'embout par un mouvement de basculement autour d'un axe de basculement perpendiculaire à l'axe de l'embout.We know from French patent FR 2 331 491 a tip comprising a breakable end part capable of being separated from the body of the end piece by a movement of tilting around a tilting axis perpendicular to the axis of the nozzle.
On connaít par le brevet US 4 207 990 un embout comportant une partie d'extrémité sécable apte à être séparée du corps de l'embout par un mouvement de rotation autour de l'axe de l'embout.We know from US Patent 4,207,990 a tip comprising a part breakable end adapted to be separated from the body of the nozzle by a movement of rotation around the axis of the nozzle.
Il existe un besoin pour disposer d'un embout de distribution à partie d'extrémité sécable capable d'être ouvert facilement et pouvant être monté sur un récipient contenant une quantité relativement importante de produit, sans risque de détachement accidentel de la partie d'extrémité au cours du transport.There is a need to have a part distribution nozzle breakable end capable of being easily opened and capable of being mounted on a container containing a relatively large quantity of product, without risk of accidental detachment of the end part during transport.
Le nouvel embout de distribution selon l'invention se caractérise par le fait que la partie d'extrémité sécable comporte des premiers moyens de préhension permettant de détacher la partie d'extrémité par un premier mouvement et des seconds moyens de préhension permettant de détacher la partie d'extrémité par un second mouvement différent du premier.The new dispensing nozzle according to the invention is characterized by the fact that the breakable end part comprises first gripping means allowing to detach the end part by a first movement and second means of grip allowing the end part to be detached by a second movement different from the first.
Un tel embout permet d'enlever la partie d'extrémité sécable au moyen d'une main ou des deux mains, ce qui en facilite l'utilisation.Such a tip removes the breakable end portion by means of a hand or both hands, making it easier to use.
Dans une réalisation préférée, la partie d'extrémité est sécable en réponse à un mouvement de rotation autour d'un axe et comporte au moins une portion latérale s'étendant au moins partiellement sous le niveau de la zone de cassure de la partie d'extrémité, offrant un appui aux doigts de l'utilisateur afin de lui permettre d'entraíner en rotation la partie d'extrémité autour de l'axe de l'embout, et une portion transversale s'étendant sensiblement perpendiculairement à l'axe de l'embout, offrant une prise suffisante aux doigts de l'utilisateur pour lui permettre de détacher la partie d'extrémité par un mouvement de basculement autour d'un axe perpendiculaire à l'axe de l'embout.In a preferred embodiment, the end portion is breakable in response to a rotational movement about an axis and has at least a lateral portion extending at least partially below the level of the breaking zone of the part end, offering support to the fingers of the user to allow him to train in rotation of the end part around the axis of the nozzle, and a transverse portion extending substantially perpendicular to the axis of the nozzle, providing a grip sufficient for the user's fingers to allow him to detach the end portion by a tilting movement around an axis perpendicular to the axis of the nozzle.
De préférence, la partie d'extrémité sécable comporte deux portions latérales s'étendant au moins partiellement sous le niveau de la zone de cassure.Preferably, the breakable end portion has two lateral portions extending at least partially below the level of the fracture zone.
Grâce au fait que la ou les portions latérales s'étendent au moins partiellement sous le niveau de la zone de cassure et non pas entièrement dans le prolongement du corps de l'embout, en étant disposées par exemple sur des côtés opposés du corps de l'embout, la partie d'extrémité peut être réalisée avec une faible extension axiale au-dessus de la zone de cassure.Thanks to the fact that the lateral portion (s) extend at least partially below the level of the break zone and not entirely in line with the body of the end piece, being arranged for example on opposite sides of the body of the end piece, the end part can be made with a small axial extension above of the break zone.
On diminue ainsi les risques de cassure accidentelle de la partie d'extrémité lors du transport.This reduces the risk of accidental breakage of the end part during transport.
De plus, l'encombrement axial du récipient équipé de l'embout de distribution reste relativement faible, ce qui permet de diminuer la taille de la boíte ou de disposer à l'intérieur de celle-ci de plus de place pour insérer une cale destinée à freiner le déplacement du récipient dans la boíte.In addition, the axial size of the container equipped with the dispensing nozzle remains relatively small, which makes it possible to reduce the size of the box or to have inside it more space to insert a shim intended to brake the movement of the container in the box.
Dans une réalisation particulière, la ou les portions latérales se raccordent à la portion transversale et s'étendent entièrement sous le niveau de la face supérieure de cette portion transversale.In a particular embodiment, the side portion (s) are connected to the transverse portion and extend entirely below the level of the upper face of this transverse portion.
De préférence, la face supérieure de la portion transversale est sensiblement plane ou légèrement convexe vers l'extérieur, la portion transversale présentant avantageusement une forme générale aplatie. Preferably, the upper face of the transverse portion is substantially flat or slightly convex outwards, the transverse portion having advantageously a generally flattened shape.
Toujours dans une réalisation particulière, la portion transversale présente en vue de dessus un contour circulaire.Still in a particular embodiment, the transverse portion present in top view a circular outline.
Avantageusement, la portion transversale présente une forme générale discoïde.Advantageously, the transverse portion has a general shape discoid.
L'embout de distribution comporte avantageusement deux ailettes diamétralement opposées disposées dans un plan de joint et s'étendant au moins partiellement de part et d'autre du corps de l'embout.The dispensing nozzle advantageously comprises two fins diametrically opposed arranged in a joint plane and extending at least partially on either side of the body of the nozzle.
De préférence, la portion transversale de la partie d'extrémité est plus large, lorsqu'observée dans l'axe de l'embout, que l'extrémité supérieure du corps de l'embout, de préférence au moins trois fois plus large, de façon à offrir une prise suffisante à l'utilisateur pour lui permettre de détacher la partie d'extrémité par un mouvement de basculement autour d'un axe perpendiculaire à celui de l'embout.Preferably, the transverse portion of the end portion is wider, when observed in the axis of the nozzle, that the upper end of the body of the nozzle, preferably at least three times wider, so as to provide sufficient grip for the user to allow him to detach the end part by a movement of tilting around an axis perpendicular to that of the nozzle.
Ainsi, selon que l'utilisateur dispose d'une ou de deux mains libres, il peut soit détacher sans effort important la partie d'extrémité par un mouvement de rotation grâce aux portions précitées, en utilisant ses deux mains, soit provoquer le basculement de la partie d'extrémité avec le pouce d'une seule main si l'autre est occupée.Depending on whether the user has one or two handsfree, he can either detach the end part without significant effort by a rotational movement thanks to with the aforementioned portions, using both hands, or cause the tilting of the end part with the thumb with one hand if the other is occupied.
Dans une réalisation particulière, la ou les portions latérales précitées sont reliées au corps de l'embout par des ponts de matière sécables.In a particular embodiment, the aforementioned lateral portion or portions are connected to the body of the nozzle by bridges of breakable material.
Ces derniers accroissent la résistance de la partie d'extrémité à un détachement accidentel, en s'opposant notamment au basculement de la partie d'extrémité autour d'un axe perpendiculaire à celui de l'embout.These increase the resistance of the end part to a accidental detachment, in particular opposing the tilting of the end part around an axis perpendicular to that of the nozzle.
Dans une réalisation préférée, le bord supérieur de la ou des portions latérales est dirigé vers l'extérieur et vers le bas.In a preferred embodiment, the upper edge of the side portion (s) is directed outward and downward.
L'invention a encore pour objet un récipient équipé d'un embout de distribution tel que précité.The invention also relates to a container equipped with a nozzle. distribution as above.

de ce col au terme du vissage.The
Bien entendu, on ne sort pas du cadre de la présente invention lorsque
l'embout de distribution 10 est réalisé non pas sous la forme d'une pièce rapportée mais
d'un seul tenant avec le corps du récipient.Of course, it is not beyond the scope of the present invention when
the dispensing
Pour distribuer le produit contenu dans le récipient, l'utilisateur tient d'une
main le récipient et entraíne avec l'autre main, en prenant appui sur les ailettes 26, la
partie d'extrémité 20 en rotation autour de l'axe X, provoquant la cassure de la paroi
annulaire amincie 23, laquelle définit alors un orifice 28 par lequel le produit peut
s'écouler.To distribute the product contained in the container, the user holds a
hand the container and drives with the other hand, taking support on the

variante de réalisation, laquelle diffère de la précédente par le fait que les ailettes 26' se
raccordent non seulement à la partie d'extrémité 20' mais également au corps de l'embout
par des ponts de matière 30, à rompre lors de la première utilisation.FIG. 4 shows a dispensing nozzle 10 'conforming to a
variant, which differs from the previous one in that the fins 26 'are
connect not only to the end portion 20 'but also to the body of the end piece
by bridges of
Ces ponts de matière 30 s'opposent au basculement de la partie d'extrémité
20' autour d'un axe perpendiculaire à l'axe X.These
Ainsi, le risque de détachement accidentel de la partie d'extrémité 20' est diminué.Thus, the risk of accidental detachment of the end portion 20 'is decreases.
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux deux exemples de réalisation qui viennent d'être décrits.Of course, the invention is not limited to the two exemplary embodiments which have just been described.
On peut notamment augmenter le nombre d'ailettes ou modifier leur forme ou celle de la région centrale de la partie d'extrémité.One can in particular increase the number of fins or modify their shape or that of the central region of the end portion.
A titre d'exemple, on a représenté sur la figure 5 un embout 10" selon une
variante de réalisation dans laquelle la région centrale 21" présente en vue de côté une
forme lenticulaire, avec une face supérieure 32" légèrement convexe vers l'extérieur.By way of example, FIG. 5 shows a 10 "nozzle according to a
