All-purpose dispenser for spraying and funnelled dosing of liquids

Abstract

The invention proposed refers to an all-purpose liquid spray and funnelled dosage dispenser which makes it possible, with just one device, to spray all types of aromatic, medicinal and/or antiseptic essences, without the need for propellant gases or aerosols and which, simply by turning the liquid container nozzle, allows an auxiliary deposit to be filled which will funnel the liquid itself to direct functions for cleaning elements which can be purified in this way, such as toilets, all done mechanically with the aid of a pressure trigger (4) with a cylindrical pressure cap (18) welded on the middle and exactly aligned with the top of the output nozzle (2), the free end (21) of the rotating lever (3) supported on a load arm (5) comprising an inertia flywheel (19) on one side of which there is a helical spiral (20), both components forming an integral part of a rotating shaft (8) driven by an electric motor (9) so that the free and (21) of the pressure trigger (4) is supported on the helical spiral (12) and, when the rotating inertia flywheel (19) causes the pressure trigger to slip over the end of said helical spiral (12) under the tension it is subjected to by the tensor spring (6), it is suddenly released and pushes the output nozzle (2) with the cylindrical pressure cap (18), automatically spraying a certain amount of liquid.

Claims

1. An all-purpose dispenser for spraying and funnelled dosage of liquids without propellant gases or aerosols, based on a rectangular straight, prism-shaped outside casing (22) with rounded edges, inside which there is a rectangular chassis-support (14) to which the following elements are attached: A liquid recipient (1) with an output nozzle (2) so that at the top, with a spray output channel (15) and a perpendicular rotating lever (3) in its middle so that the liquid can be sprayed from the front or back of the dispenser A pressure trigger (4) comprising a substantially triangular part moored at one vertex (10) by a rotating shaft (16), the upper vertex (17) secured by a tensor spring (6) moored and fixed at the opposite end (7) . Welded to the middle of the pressure trigger (4) there is a cylindrical pressure cap (18) exactly aligned with the top of the output nozzle (2), and with the free end (21) of the rotating lever (3) supported on a load arm (5) consisting of an inertia flywheel (19), on one side of which there is a helical spiral (12), both elements forming an integral part of an electric-motor-driven (9) rotating shaft (20). Turning the output nozzle (2) using the lever (3) to the opposite position releases the liquid through the back of the device which comprises a fuse (13) and a deposit (11) that collects the liquid, which rather than emerging as spray, does so under gravity along the channelling (12) directly to the recipient to be cleaned or disinfected.

2. An all-purpose dispenser as set forth in Claim 1, whose output nozzle (2) at the top of the liquid recipient (1) is operated by pressure-difference so that, when the nozzle (2) is pressed, a quantity of liquid is impelled along the output channel (15).

3. An all-purpose dispenser as set forth in Claims 2, characterised because the free end (21) of the pressure trigger (4) is supported on the helical spiral (12) so that, when the inertia flywheel (19) turns, the pressure trigger slips over the end of the helical spiral (12) because of the tension the spiral is subjected to by the tensor spring (6) and is suddenly released, pushing the output nozzle (2) by the cylindrical pressure cap (18) allowing a certain amount of liquid to be sprayed automatically, and when the helical spiral (12) comes once more as it turns into contact with the pressure trigger (4) the process begins again.

4. An all-purpose dispenser as set forth in Claim 3, characterised because if the output nozzle (2) is turned to the opposite position using the lever (3), the liquid is released through the rear of the device which comprises a fuse (13) impregnated with liquid and releasing it gradually, collecting said liquid in a deposit (11) so that, rather than being sprayed, it emerges under gravity along the channelling (12), directly to the recipient to be cleaned or disinfected.

A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

[0052] The invention proposed as expressed in the heading to these descriptive specifications refers to an all-purpose spray and funnelled-dosage dispenser which makes it possible, with just one device, to spray all types of aromatic, medicinal and/or antiseptic essences, without the need for propellant gases or aerosols and which, simply by turning the liquid container nozzle, allows an auxiliary deposit to be filled which will funnel the liquid as such to direct functions for cleaning elements which can be purified in this way, such as toilets, and comprising principally the following elements:

[0053] Firstly there is a rectangular straight prism-shaped outer casing (22) with rounded edges inside which a rectangular chassis-support (14) is seen, to which the following elements are attached:

[0054] A liquid recipient (1) with a pressure-difference output nozzle (2) so that, when the nozzle (2) is pressed, a quantity of liquid is driven out along the output channel (15).

[0055] Said output nozzle (2) has a perpendicular rotation lever (3) in its middle so that liquid can be sprayed from the front or the back.

[0056] To press the nozzle (2) automatically and for the liquid to emerge at programmed intervals, provision is made for a device comprising a pressure trigger (4) which has a substantially triangular element moored at one of its vertices (10) on a rotation shaft (16) while the upper vertex (17) is secured by a tensor spring attached and secured at its opposite end (7).

[0057] Welded to the middle part of the pressure trigger (4) there is a cylindrical pressure cap (18) exactly aligned with the top of the output nozzle (2) and the free end (21) of the rotation lever (3) is carried by a load arm (5) comprising an inertia flywheel (19) on one side of which there is a helical spiral (12), both elements integrated into an electric-motor-driven (9) rotating shaft (20).

[0058] With this layout, the free end (21) of the pressure trigger (4) is supported on the helical spiral (12) so that when the inertia flywheel (19) turns and the pressure trigger slips on the end of the helical spiral (12) because of the tension that element is under from the tensor spring (6), it is released and the output nozzle (2) is pushed by the cylindrical pressure cap (18), allowing a certain quantity of liquid to be sprayed automatically.

[0059] As the helical spiral (12) rotates, it makes contact once more with the pressure trigger (4) and the process begins again.

[0060] If the output nozzle (2) is turned to the opposite position with the lever (3), the liquid is released through the rear of the device comprising a fuse (13) impregnated with liquid, releasing it gradually into a deposit (11) which collects the liquid and, rather than emerging in spray, it does so under gravity along the channelling (12), directly to the recipient to be cleaned or disinfected, such as a urinal or similar element.

[0061] In this very simple way, a single dispenser is able to spray liquid or funnel it as liquid to the component to be cleaned or disinfected.

[0062] Having sufficiently described the ture of the invention and its practical implementation, it must be recorded that the specifications indicated above and represented in the attached drawings may be modified in detail provided that this does not alter their main principles established in the previous paragraphs and summarised in the following claims.
