Definitions
- This invention relates generally to pressurized aerosol-spray containers, and more particularly, to extensions for aerosol spray nozzles and dispensing valves.
- an aerosol involves a container and a method of dispensing.
- an aerosol container concerns products in a form of fine solids or liquid particles packaged in a pressurized-sealed container with a liquified or compressed gas propellant to enable the products to self-dispense by opening a valve.
- aerosol products dispensed in domestic, industrial, general and pharmaceutical applications are: toiletries, room deodorants and food products for domestic applications: insecticides, lubricants, oils, detergent cleaners, paint fuels, fibers and insulation products for industrial and general applications; and chemicals products for pharmaceutical applications.
- U.S. Pat. Ser. No. 3,154,075 (1964) disclosed a vaginal applicator for mounting on an external valve stem of a pressurized fluid container.
- U.S. Pat. Ser. No. 3,154,075 (1964) disclosed a vaginal applicator for mounting on an external valve stem of a pressurized fluid container.
- One disadvantage is that some are not practical, when direct transfer of the product from a nozzle or a valve orifice of the aerosol container to the extension is required for precise placement of the dispensed product at an intended location with minimal product and propellant waste.
- Another problem with some is that the extension, which focuses and extends a range of the dispensed products, is not flexible. Thus, accurate dispensing of the products is often impeded by a physical rigidity and a geometry of the extension.
- Other disadvantages are that some are relatively complex and costly to manufacture.
- this invention comprises an extension for use with a pressurized container in domestic, industrial and general spray applications.
- the pressurized container has a cylindrically-shaped body, a planar bottom and a convex top.
- the body includes a propellant and a product to be dispensed therefrom.
- the top has a circular opening for receiving an actuator and a dispensing valve, which actuator and valve defines a dispensing system for delivering the product as a spray, mist, stream or powder.
- the actuator in turn, defines an outlet orifice for delivering the product held within the pressurized container.
- the improvement comprises a clamping means that is directly joined and releasably locked to the dispensing system.
- the extension further comprises a flexible, elongated tubular member for accurately delivering products contained in the pressurized container from the dispensing system to intended locations otherwise difficult to reach with the products.
- the tubular member is coupled between the clamping means and the dispensing system to effect efficient delivery of the product contained within the pressurized container.
- Figure 1 is a partially broken, partially sectioned, front view of a prior art aerosol.
- Figure 2 is an enlarged, partially broken, perspective view of an aerosol extension constructed in accordance with the invention.
- Figure 3 is an enlarged, fragmentary, partially broken, cross-sectional view of the aerosol extension of Figure 1, illustrating the aerosol extension locked to a spray system of the aerosol of Figure 1.
- Figure 4 is an enlarged, fragmentary, partially broken, cross-sectional view of another actuator, in which an outlet orifice thereof has a single uniform size, and in which a connection of a tubular extension member of the aerosol extension to the outlet orifice is a variant of a connection of the tubular extension member of the aerosol extension to the outlet orifice of the actuator of Figure 1.
- Figure 5 is a similar view to Figure 4, in which an outlet orifice thereof has an enlarged chamber for receiving therein a tubular extension member, and in which there is illustrated another variant of a connection of the tubular extension member of the aerosol extension to the outlet orifice of the actuator of Figure 4.
- Figure 6 is a similar view to Figure 4 of still another actuator utilized by the spray system of Figure 1, in which a top portion thereof is generally planar, and in which there is illustrated another embodiment of a connection of an aerosol extension to the spray system of Figure 4.
- Figure 7 is an enlarged, partially broken, cross-sectional, front view of the aerosol extension of Figure 5.
- a prior art pressurized container or aerosol 10 for pressure dispensing products contained therein as a stream, mist, spray, powder, paste or foam.
- the present invention contemplates dispensing-products such as lubricants, cleaners and paints for domestic, industrial and general applications.
- other products that may also be dispensed with aerosol 10 include toiletries, food, pharmaceuticals, insecticides and animal products.
- Aerosol 10 in its most typical form comprises a pressurized, can-like package or body
- Body 12 is usually formed from a metal alloy, glass or plastic, and includes a convex or dome top 14 and a concave or flat bottom 16.
- Convex top 14 is provided with an opening 18 for receiving a product and a gas propellanL and for allowing connection of an atomizer or spray, dispensing system.
- the dispensing system is generally denoted by the reference numeral 20, and it caps or closes opening 18, retains a required gas pressure within body container 12, and dispenses the product as a spray, a misL a stream, a foam, a paste or a powder at a designed pressure rate.
- dispensing system 20 is defined by a dispensing valve, generally denoted by reference numeral 22, and an actuator, a nozzle, or an atomizer 24.
- Dispensing valve 22 includes a plastic dip tube 23 for conveying the product from body container 12 to actuator 24.
- Tube 23 connects to a movable plastic stem 26, which has an opening 27 for metering a flow of the product from aerosol 10.
- Stem 26 in conjunction with a spring 28 and a rubber gasket 30 provide a mechanism for opening, closing and sealing dispensing system 20.
- actuators 24 will normally contain a final passageway or outlet orifice 32 for producing or projecting a spray, mist, stream, foam, paste or powder for an intended application in a pattern defined by its construction.
- Outlet orifice 32 is mechanically, removably linked with stem 26 to provide an off-on control. Delivery of an aerosol product is initiated by tilting actuator 24 forward, or by vertically depressing actuator 24.
- orifice outlet 32 is provided with bell-shaped terminal end in the form of an enlarged circular recess or hollow chamber 33.
- actuator 24 comprises a generally flaL external face 31.
- Chamber 33 is of a size or dimension to match with a corresponding component tubular extension of the invention, as will be more fully explained hereinafter.
- Extension 34 comprises a ring-shaped clamp or collar 36 for releasably, positively, locking extension 34 directly to dispensing system 20 of aerosol 10, without requiring physical engagement with aerosol top 14, body 12 or bottom 16.
- clamp 36 preferably comprises a lightweight, durable, rigid, plastic material that is substantially resistent to aerosol product attack.
- Clamp 36 includes opposed top and bottom sides 38 and 40, respectively, and opposed inner and outer sides 42, 44.
- Clamp 36 further comprises a threaded aperture 46 extending in a radial direction through inner and outer clamp sides 42, 44, as is best shown in Figure 3.
- threaded aperture 46 receives an adjusting screw 48 for connecting a button or a sleeve member 57 thereto.
- a head 50 of adjusting screw 48 is provided with a knurled configuration to facilitate manually, controllably moving, adjusting screw 48 towards or away from an imaginary axially extending centerline 52 of clamp 36, as is best shown in Figure 2.
- An end of adjusting screw 48 opposite head 50 is provided with a ball means 54, which mates with a socket 56 provided by sleeve member 57.
- Sleeve 57 is positioned adjacent inner clamp side 42. and is enabled to pivot in all directions through the ball 54 and socket 56 connection.
- Sleeve 57 is in the form of a button. as previously mentioned, or a plate or disk and preferably comprises a rectangular thin plate, having a concave or curved shape.
- Sleeve 57 further comprises a lightweight rigid, plastic material that is substantially resistant to aerosol product attack.
- clamp 36 further comprises a second aperture 58 for retaining an elongated, flexible, slender, annular or tubular extension member therein, generally denoted by reference numeral 60.
- Tubular member 60 preferably comprises an aerosol, product- resistenL plastic material, such as, polyethylene or polypropylene.
- Tubular member 60 extends through inner and outer clamp sides 42, 44 so as to define an inlet or intake terminal end portion 59, an intermediate portion 61, and an outlet terminal end portion 63.
- Tubular member 60 is provided with a diameter suitable for insertion within outlet orifice 32 of dispensing system 20 to allow aerosol products to be transferred by dispensing system 20 therethrough.
- Tubular member 60 is also comprises a length suitable for allowing aerosol products to be transferred thereby to locations otherwise difficult to reach with said products.
- a preferred length of tubular member 60 is around about two feet.
- aperture 58 may be provided with a locking bushing, retainer ring, or sleeve 62 for reducing the diameter of aperture 58, as illustrated in Figure 3. The reduced diameter effects positively securing tubular member 60 at aperture 58 with respect to preventing movement thereof, and assists in coupling terminal inlet portion 59 of tubular member 60 to outlet orifice 32.
- bushing 62 comprises a material suitable for minimizing damage to tubular member 60.
- tubular member 60 has disposed thereon an inner, ring-shaped gasket 64 for forming a connection at a terminal inlet end 59 and outlet orifice 32. It will be noted that this connection is resistant to an unwanted leakage of propellants and products transferred from aerosol 10 to tubular extension member 60, when terminal tube inlet
- gasket 64 comprises a resiliently compressible, material and preferably is made of rubber. Gasket 64 is mounted over tubular end 59 and secured thereto in a manner to prevent movement thereof, as
- gasket 64 is retained by tubular end 59 between inner clamp surface 42 and an adjacent confronting surface defined by outlet orifice 32. So positioned, gasket 64 is permitted to abuttingly engagement outlet orifice 32, as will be more fully explained hereinafter.
- collar 36 of extension 34 is initially position over the dispensing system
- aerosol product conveyed by tubular member 60 may be in the form of a spray, mist, stream or powder.
- adjusting screw head 50 is manually tightened or torqued to exert a
- a final adjustment of tightening screw 48 lockingly maintains tubular member 60 in alignment with orifice 32. It will be further noted that the final adjustment also causes inner surface 42 at aperture region 58 to bear against gasket 64, in a manner to compress gasket 64 within orifice chamber 33. So compressed, gasket 64 assists locking screw 48 in maintaining tubular member 60 in line with orifice 32, and forms a joint that is resistant to liquid, gas or powder leaks, while leaving actuator 24 free for starting and stopping product dispensing or spray operations.
- outlet orifice geometry 70 that is a variant of orifice 32 of Figure 1.
- outlet orifice 70 comprises a common and well known design used by a number of different aerosol manufactures.
- outlet orifice 70 does not terminate in an enlarged hollow chamber.
- outlet orifice 70 generally comprises a single uniform diameter so as to provide the front or face 67 of actuator 68, from which the product is delivered, with a non-slotted or generally flat geometry.
- tubular extension member 60 of Figures 1 and 4 comprise substantially the same structure, and that the manner in which tubular extension member 60 of Figure 4 connects with actuator 68 to form a leak-proof joint is the only difference with respect to tubular extension member 60 of Figure 1.
- tubular member 60 is preferably provided with another inner, ring-shaped gasket 72.
- gasket 72 is manufactured from substantially the same material as gasket 64 of Figures 3 and 4.
- gasket 72 is provided with an aperture 61 in which tubular member 60 partially extends as is clearly illustrated at Figure 4.
- Gasket 72 is rigidly retained at a tubular inlet end 59 adjacent fixed gasket 64 through a press fit at gasket aperture 61 in a manner to prevent movement thereof and to be contiguous with gasket 64.
- tightening adjusting screw 48 permits portions of disk 57 to cooperate with confronting portions of inner surface 42 at aperture 58 to effect squeezingly attaching collar 36 and tubular extension member 60 to actuator 68 and orifice 70, respectively.
- the advancement of adjusting screw 48 exerts a squeezing force on disk 57 which is absorbed by gasket 64 through inner surface 42.
- Gasket 64 and tobular extension inlet portion 57 under the influence of the squeezing force bear against gasket 72, and act as a stay for preventing movement of gasket 72.
- Gasket 72 is compressed between gasket 64 and actuator face 67, such that a thickness of gasket 64 is reduced.
- tobular extension inlet end projects or protrudes beyond gasket 64.
- openings defined by tubular extension inlet end and outlet orifice 59 and 70, respectively are permitted to be precisely aligned with one another and matingly coupled. So joined, outlet orifice 70 and tobular member 60 form a leak resistant joint that satisfactorily transfers aerosol products to desired hard to reach locations. It will now be evident that reversibly moving or retracting tightening screw 48 releases the squeezing force and allows collar 36 and tubular extension member 60 to be dis-attached from actuator 68 and orifice 70, respectively.
- tubular extension member 60 of Figure 4 to outlet orifice 32 of actuator 24, previously illustrated at Figure 3.
- enlarged orifice chamber 62 of FIG. 5 is of a size, to only snugly mate with or receive therein tobular inlet end 59.
- tobular extension member 60 of Figures 4 and 5 is tiiat tubular extension member 60 of Figure 5 includes only one gasket.
- tubular member 60 of Figure 5 preferably includes only gasket 64.
- Forming leak resistant joints with tubular extension member 60 of Figures 4 and 5 to outlet orifices 70, 32, respectively, is substantially the same.
- the primary difference in forming the leak resistant joint with respect to outlet orifices 70, 32 is that gasket 64 of Figure 5 is not received within the enlarged chamber 62 of Figure 5.
- chamber 62 only receives tubular inlet end 59, while gasket 64 under the compression of the squeezing force derived from screw 48 acts as a stay for preventing movement of tubular extension member, and creates the leak resistant joint thereof.
- actuator 76 which is commonly used by aerosol manufacturers. It will be apparent upon an inspection of Figure 4 that the only difference between actuator 68 of Figure 4 and actoator 76 of Figure 6 is that actuator 76 comprises a generally flat top portion
- Aerosol extension 80 is in the form of a U-shaped plastic or metal clamp or clip member 82 for removably attaching to an actuator valve or nozzle 76 of aerosol 10.
- Clip member 82 is preferably made from plastic and comprises an upper intermediate section 84 and first and second side parallel sections 86, 88, respectively.
- First and second parallel sections 86. 88 extend from upper intermediate section 84 in a given longitudinal direction.
- First and second sections 86, 88 are also transversely spaced apart to form a gap 92 therebetween of sufficient size to matingly receive therein actuator 76, in a manner illustrated in Figure 6.
- Upper section 84 forms an intermediate bridge between first and second sections 86
- tubular extension member 60 and gasket 64 are substantially constructed in the same manner and substantially perform the same function as previously fully described for valve extension 34 of Figure 3.
- second section 88 functions as a locking means for releasably, snap-locking, aerosol extension 80 to actuator 76, and for locking tubular member 60, through its inlet end 59, in mating engagement with outlet orifice 70 to effect a leak-proof joint thereaL
- second section 88 comprises an elongated tubular member, which when viewed from a front thereof has a generally horseshoe-shaped, bar configuration. and when viewed from a side thereof has a concave configuration.
- Second section 88 is preferably made from plastic and is pivotally connected to upper section 84 at spaced apart ends 96 thereof.
- upper section 84 comprises a detent in the form of a transversely extending recess or cavity 98.
- Cavity 98 is configured and dimensioned to allow second section 88 to snapingly bear against back side 65 of actoator 76, when rotated in a counterclockwise direction from a generally horizontal position to a generally vertical position relative to top portion 78 and back side 65.
- second section 88 and first section 86 cooperate to apply a squeezing or clamping pressure to opposed front and back actuator faces 67, 65 in a manner shown in Figure 6.
- detent cavity 98 mechanically holds second section 88 in abutting engagement with actuator back side 65, such that, the locking member or second section 88 can normally only be released therefrom through an application of manual force by rotating the locking member in a clockwise direction.
- snapping second section 88 against actuator side 65 locks aerosol extension 80 to actuator 76 and applies a squeezing force to gasket 64 and tabular member 60.
- the squeezing force is transferred to front actuator surface 67 and an inner confronting surface of extension 80 defined by gap 92 so as to compress gasket 64.
- the application of pressure from second section 88 and the associated compression of gasket 64 enables tubular member 60 to be accurately mated to orifice 70, and enables gasket 64 to effect the leak resistant joint therea
- the present invention is not limited to locking aerosol extension 80 to actuator 70 through second section 88 and cavity detent 98.
- Other suitable locks as will occur to those skilled in the art may be utilized.
- aerosol extension 80 could be locked to actuator 76 with a control or retainer belt or band made from an elastic material, such as rubber.
- the present invention provides a low cost, reliable, simply constructed, easy to use, extension for spray applications with aerosol containers.
- the present invention provides a simple, adjustable lock tiiat is compatible with a number of aerosol containers having different spray system geometries or configurations, while allowing normal off-on control of the aerosol actuator.
- the present invention through its positive leak-proof coupling at the tubular extension member, aerosol orifice interface, advantageously allows a satisfactory transfer rate of product through the orifice and tubular extension member.
