    [0001] The present invention relates to a packaging and dispensing device for a liquid or semi-liquid product.
    [0002] The invention relates more particularly to a packaging and dispensing device for a liquid or semi-liquid product, comprising a mobile diffuser, comprising at least one first reservoir that feeds an outlet element, and at least a fixed base, comprising a second reservoir, which is capable of being connected to the first mobile diffuser reservoir by means of coupling means to allow the transfer of the product from the second base reservoir to the first mobile diffuser reservoir, in order to allow at least recharging in product of that mobile diffuser.
    [0003] Numerous examples of such devices are known.
    [0004] In most devices of this type, the second reservoir is subjected to the pressure of a propellant gas under pressure and a valve system is interposed between the second reservoir and the first reservoir. The coupling of the mobile diffuser to the fixed base that allows the transfer of the product.
    [0005] This design has the drawback of not allowing the device that supplies gas to the second reservoir to function. The filling of the first reservoir becomes impossible, since when the gas is exhausted in the second reservoir.

    [00011] In the description that follows, identical reference numbers designate identical parts or having similar functions.
    [00012] A packaging and dispensing device 10 for a liquid or semi-liquid product comprising a movable diffuser 12 and a fixed 14 is shown in figures 1A to 4B.
    [00013] In a known manner, the device 10 comprises a mobile diffuser 12 which comprises at least one first reservoir 16 which feeds an outlet element 18. The device 10 also comprises at least one fixed base 14, comprising a second reservoir 20, which is capable of being connected to the first reservoir 16 of the mobile diffuser 12, by means of coupling means 22 to allow the transfer of the product from the second reservoir 20 from the base 14 to the first reservoir 16 of the mobile diffuser 12, in order to allow at least product loading of that mobile diffuser 12.
    [00014] The reservoir 20 of the fixed base 14 is thus intended to allow the refilling of the reservoir 16 of the mobile diffuser 12.
    [00015] However, it will be understood that the reservoir 20 of the fixed base 14 can also be refilled by means of a suitable device (not shown).
    [00016] Conventionally, in such a device, the second reservoir 20 is subjected to the pressure of a propellant gas under pressure and a valve system is interposed between the second reservoir 20 and the first reservoir 16. The coupling of the mobile diffuser 12 the fixed base 14 allows the transfer of the product.
    [00017] This design has the drawback of not allowing the device to function as long as there is gas in the second reservoir 20. Filling the first reservoir 16 becomes impossible, since the gas is consumed in the second reservoir 20.
    [00018] On the other hand, the use of this device is limited to liquid products, and does not allow an application to semi-liquid or creamy products.
    [00019] To prevent these inconveniences, the invention proposes a device of the type previously described, comprising a device 10, in which an electric pump 24 allows to transfer the product.
    [00020] For this purpose, the invention proposes a device 10 of the type described above, characterized by the fact that an electric miniature pump 24, known as a transfer pump, is interposed between the first and the second reservoir 16, 20, to allow forwarding of the product through the coupling means 22.
    [00021] As shown in figures 1A and 1B, according to a first embodiment of the device 10, the pump is received in a first housing 26 of the mobile diffuser 12.
    [00022] As a variant, as shown in figures 2a to 4B, the transfer pump 24 is received in a second box 28 of the fixed base.
    [00023] According to the invention, the coupling means 22 comprise complementary coupling elements 30, 32 with two ways 34, 36, those ways 34, 36 which contain, on the one hand, a first way 34 which is capable of connecting to the first reservoir 16 a part of the second reservoir 20 which is arranged under a second associated level "N2" of product of the second reservoir 20, and, on the other hand, a second path 36 which is able to connect a conduit 38 to the second reservoir 20 said of thief and / or outflow, ending above a first level "N1" associated with product of the first reservoir 16.
    [00024] This configuration advantageously allows the filling of the first reservoir 16, starting from the second reservoir 20 and preventing overflow of the first reservoir 16.
    [00025] This configuration also allows advantageously to consider the volume necessary for the expansion of alcoholic products, which can be very subject to expansion, depending on the temperature.

    [00027] According to an embodiment of the coupling means 22 that has not been shown in the figures, each path 34, 36 is capable of being selectively opened or closed by means of associated valves.
    [00028] For example, each track 34, 36 can comprise a pair of solenoid valves, each of which is supported by one of the complementary coupling elements 30, 32. The coupling of the complementary coupling elements 30, 32 causes the simultaneous opening of the two solenoid valves of each way, thus allowing the opening of each way 34, 36.

    [00051] In this embodiment of the coupling means 22, these coupling elements 22 comprise a female element 30, supported by an upper transverse wall 106 of the movable diffuser 12, and in a substantially vertical perforation 40 from which at least one flow out radial end 42 of a first conduit 44 of the diffuser 12, associated with the first path 34, which is connected to the first reservoir 16 and an axial end 46 of a second conduit 48 of the diffuser 12, associated with the second outlet path 36, which it is connected to the first reservoir 16 above the first level associated with the first reservoir 16, and an end 47 of a third conduit 49 of the diffuser 12, associated with the second outlet path 36, which is connected outdoors.
    [00052] The female element 30 comprises at least one insertion mouth 50 which communicates with its perforation 40.
    [00053] The coupling elements 22 comprise a substantially cylindrical intermediate drawer 52, which is slidably mounted and pulled elasticly in the perforation 40 of the female element 30 by means of a spring 53.
    [00054] The drawer 52 is traversed substantially longitudinally by a first intermediate conduit 72 that comprises an end 76 said internal, opening radially at an end 80 of the drawer 52 in the internal perforation 40 of the female element 30, and an external end 82 opening into radially to the opposite end 86 of the drawer 52 on a free transverse face 88 of that drawer 52. The outer end 82 flows out notably into an annular rail formed on the periphery of the drawer 52 which is cylindrical, and internally communicates the drawer 52 with the end 76.
    [00055] The drawer 52 is traversed substantially longitudinally by a second intermediate conduit 74 that comprises an end 78 said internal, which ends axially at an end 80 of the drawer 52 in the internal perforation 40 of the female element and which is capable of being closed by a float 108 housed in the perforation 40 of the female element 30, and a so-called intermediate end 84 that radiates radially into an intermediate part 110 of that drawer 52.
    [00056] The intermediate end 84 ends up notably in an annular rail formed on the periphery of the drawer 52, and internally communicates the drawer 52 with the end 78.
    [00057] The drawer 52 is movable between a resting position, shown in figure 9A, in which it is pulled elasticly in the perforation 40 of the female element 30 by the spring 53 and in which it closes the inner end 42 of the first conduit 44 of the associated diffuser 12 to the first track 34 and the end 47 of the third conduit 49 of the diffuser associated with the second outlet path 36, and a coupling position, shown in figure 9B, in which the drawer 52 is requested to meet the control spring 53 to allow the inner end 76 of the first intermediate conduit 72 and the intermediate end 84 of the second intermediate conduit 74 coincide with the ends of the first and third conduits 44, 49 of the diffuser 12.
    [00058] As shown in figure 9A, the coupling elements 22 finally comprise a male element 32 substantially cylindrical, with a maximum diameter equal to that of the introduction mouth 50, which is crossed by a base axial conduit 54 which is connected to the second reservoir 20 under a second level associated with the second reservoir 20, the axial end of which 58 flows into a free transverse face 90 of that male element 32, that male element 32 being able to be introduced into the mouth 50 of the female element 30, so that the transverse face 90 of the male element 32 requests the transverse face 88 of the drawer 52, in order to request the drawer 52 to meet the control spring 53 and simultaneously, in order to join the end 58 of the first base conduit 54 with the outer end 82 of the first intermediate conduit 72 of the drawer 52, in order to open the two routes 34, 36.
    [00059] As shown in figure 8, the female element 30 comprises an internal chuck 112, in which the tubular drawer 52 is pulled elastically by means of a control spring 53 that rests against a bottom transverse wall 116 of the element female 30, and in which the float 108 is housed coaxially to that spring 53.
    [00060] The female element 30 also comprises a bushing 118, coaxial to the internal bushing 112, whose laminations 120, 122 delimit with the internal bushing the first and third conduits 44, 49 of the diffuser 12, and which comprises the bottom face 116 .
    [00061] The female element 30 finally comprises a cover 124, which delimits with the inner and outer bushings 112, 118 a flange face 126 which is designed to receive a flange face 128 of the tubular drawer 52 and which includes a perforation 50 that forms the insertion chuck intended to allow the passage of a second section 66 of reduced diameter of the drawer, the free end of which constitutes the cross face 88 of the drawer 52 capable of being requested by the cross face of the male element 90.
    [00062] Preferably, at least a part of the inner and outer bushings 112, 118 extends in the first reservoir 16, and that part comprises a radial perforation that ends in this first reservoir 16 or that communicates with the pump 24 connected to the reservoir 16 and that constitutes the first conduit 44 of the diffuser 12 associated with the first track 34.
    [00063] This part also comprises an axial perforation which is formed in the bottom transverse wall 116 of the external bushing 118 and which communicates with the first reservoir 16 to form the second conduit 48 of the diffuser 12, associated with the second outlet path 36.
    [00064] In this embodiment, the female element 30 is carried by an upper horizontal wall 106 of the movable diffuser 12, as shown in figures 3A and 3B, 8 and 9A and 9B.
    [00065] As a variant, if the diffuser comprises a diffusion pump 134 housed in neck 136 of the first reservoir 16, the female element can advantageously be housed also in that neck 136 in a support 137 common to pump 134 and the female element, as shown in figures 4A and 4B.
    [00066] The diffusion pump 134 can be mechanical, or, as will be seen later in the sequence of the present description, also be an electric pump.
    [00067] In the preferred embodiment of the invention, as shown in detail in figures 1A and 1B, the housing 26, 28 of the diffuser 12 or the base 14 receives the miniature transfer pump 24, a means 140 of electrical supply of that pump, and a control means 142 for that pump.
    [00068] Thus, it is the diffuser box 26 that receives these elements in the case of the first embodiment of the invention that was represented in figures 1A, 1B and the base box 28 that receives these elements (not shown) in the case of the second to the fourth embodiment of the invention which are shown in figures 2A to 4B.
    [00069] It will be understood that this provision is not a limitation of the invention and that it mainly aims to group pump 24, the control means 142 in the same box 26, in order to reduce the number of electrical contacts put into play.
    [00070] However, the pump 24, its supply medium 140 and its control medium could be distributed differently in the diffuser and in the base, the electrical connection then being made through the coupling means 22.
    [00071] In the preferred embodiment of the invention, pump 24 is a piezoelectric type pump.
    [00072] This piezo-electric pump was represented, schematically in figures 10A to 10C.
    [00073] In a known manner, the piezoelectric pump 24 comprises a box 144 provided with an inlet nozzle 146 and an outlet nozzle 148.
    [00074] Inside the box 144, a chamber 150 of variable volume is arranged, comprising at least one fixed wall 152, and a movable membrane 154 which is capable of being moved by a piezo-electric driver 156 to vary the volume of the chamber 150.
    [00075] The product is capable of being admitted to the chamber 150 of variable volume through a first membrane 158 that forms a one-way valve, and is able to be ejected from the chamber 150, through a second membrane 160 that forms the valve one way.
    [00076] When the piezo-electric actuator 156 is subjected to an electric current of determined frequency, it is able to move to deform the mobile membrane 154 according to a first configuration, represented in figure 10B, in which the volume of the chamber 150 of variable volume is increased, and in which the product can thus be admitted through the inlet nozzle 146 and the first membrane 158, forming a valve.
    [00077] The piezo-electric actuator 156 is also capable of being moved, so that the mobile membrane 154 occupies a second configuration, in which the chamber 150 of variable volume sees its reduced volume, as shown in figure 10C. The product contained in the chamber 150 is then ejected through the second membrane 160 and the outlet nozzle 148.
    [00078] On the other hand, this pump 24 can comprise one or more chambers 150, generally arranged in series.
    [00079] For the good application of the invention, a commercial piezo-electric pump will be used, that pump preferably comprising two chambers 150 arranged in series and having the advantage of a dimension and reduced electrical consumption.
    [00080] Thus, this pump can have a maximum volume of 30 millimeters for a weight of 2 grams, according to an electrical consumption of less than 200 mi li watts.
    [00081] It can allow a flow of 6 millimeters per minute at 550 millibars of pressure, when it is subjected to sinusoidal current of frequency 100 Hz.
    [00082] Of course, it is also possible to use a pump with a single chamber, also available on the market.
    [00083] Several provisions can be considered to realize the electrical supply means 140 of the pump 24.
    [00084] According to a first embodiment of the invention, the electrical supply means 140 comprises a battery, for example, a miniature battery, of the lithium battery type.
    [00085] This type of battery is particularly suitable for device 10, according to the invention, when the reservoir 20 of the base 14 is not intended to be refilled. In this case, the battery life corresponds to the total electrical energy consumed by the pump 24, in order to transfer the entire contents of the reservoir 20 from the base 124 to the reservoir 16 of the diffuser 12.
    [00086] According to another embodiment of the electrical supply means 140, as shown in figure 1A, the electrical supply means 140 may comprise an accumulator which is rechargeable by means of an electrical power source (not shown) ).
    [00087] According to a first embodiment of the electrical supply means 140, it may include, as a variant, a photovoltaic panel (not shown) which is preferably arranged on the outer surface of the diffuser or base 14, in such a way allowing recharging of the accumulator 34, when the device 10 is not used.
    [00088] The power supply means 140 may also include a dynamo-type manual current generator (not shown) and may be integrated into housing 26 or 28 of diffuser 12 or base 14, to allow recharging of accumulator 140.
    [00089] In this case, box 28 or 28 considered shall be included to be provided to integrate a housing (not shown), allowing to accommodate the generatrix and a folding crank or a gasket (not shown), allowing to activate this generatrix, in order to allow recharging of accumulator 140.
    [00090] According to a second embodiment, when the electrical supply means is an accumulator 140, it is notably connected to a pre-existing electrical network.
    [00091] For example, the electrical network consists of a domestic alternating current electrical network.
    [00092] In this case, the rechargeable accumulator 140 of the device 10 can be recharged by connecting the rechargeable accumulator 140 to a transformer connected to the domestic electrical network.
    [00093] For this purpose, it may be possible, for example, to provide a female socket (not shown) arranged on the surface of the box 26 or 28 that receives the accumulator. This socket will be used to receive a male socket from the transformer.
    [00094] As a variant, the electrical network can also be an on-board electrical network of a motor vehicle, the rechargeable accumulator 140 being connected to a lighter-type socket (not shown) intended to be connected to the on-board electrical network of that vehicle car.
    [00095] Finally, the electrical network can also be a direct current circuit supplying a home computer series peripheral and, in this case, device 10 may include a so-called "USB" series socket, intended to be inserted into a port of a home computer to allow recharging of rechargeable battery 140.
    [00096] In the preferred embodiment of the invention, as shown in figures 1A, 1B, the control means 142 comprises a switch that controls the electrical supply means 140.
    [00097] This is notably a button-type switch that forms a bounce on the surface of the box 26 or 28.
    [00098] Switch 142 comprises a button 162, mounted sliding on an axis 164 and pulled elasticly by a spring 166. Button 162 is attached to a terminal capable of coming into contact with another terminal (not shown) to close the circuit pump power supply 24.
    [00099] As a variant, the control means 142 can include an electronic circuit (not shown), forming a switch that is associated with a photoelectric cell arranged on the base box 28.
    [000100] The cell can be placed on the outer surface of the box 28, so as to be closed by a user's hand approach, or more effectively on the bottom 104 of the housing 98 of the fixed base 14, as previously described .
    [000101] The filling of cell 170 causes the activation of the electronic circuit that activates the electrical supply of the pump 24.
    [000102] As a variant, electronic circuit 168 can be associated with a contact that is established when coupling the complementary coupling elements 30, 32 with two ways. The coupling of these two elements 30, 32, associated with the replacement of the diffuser on the base, causes the activation of electronic circuit 168 that activates the electrical supply of the pump 24.
    [000103] It will naturally be understood that other configurations of the control means 142 can be considered without limiting the scope of the invention, for example, by performing a voice command or a proximity detection command, particularly appreciable in the case of a control device. packaging of a cosmetic product that must be applied on the skin, detection of the proximity of the user's skin and can then trigger the diffusion of the product 14.
    [000104] As previously seen, according to the fact that the pump 24 is housed in the diffuser or in the base, the housing 26, 28 of the diffuser 12 or the base 14 receives the miniature transfer pump 24, a means 140 of electrical supply of this pump, and a control means 142 for that pump.
    [000105] Box 26 or 28 can therefore be a conventional box that receives the associated reservoir 16 or 20.
    [000106] As a variant (not shown), the box 26 or 28 can consist of a hood fitted over the reservoir 16 or 20.
    [000107] In the simplest embodiment of the invention, the pump 24 is fixed to an internal wall of the housing 26, 28.
    [000108] However, preferably, the pump 24 is supported by an intermediate element (not shown) attached to the box 26, 28. That element can also comprise the electrical supply means 140 of that pump 24, and the control means 142 of this pump, so that, when the device 10 is connected, the set of these elements can be assembled in one piece in the box 26 or 28 that is destined to receive them.
    [000109] Advantageously, according to a variant (not shown) of the invention, the mobile diffuser 12 can also contain a miniature electric diffusion pump, preferably piezo-electric, which is interposed between the first reservoir 16 and the element 18 of output, which is powered by an electric power means (not shown) of the mobile diffuser, and which is controlled by an associated control means (not shown).
    [000110] This electric diffusion pump can be an independent pump intended solely for the diffusion of the product, or simply consist of the transfer pump, which, as shown in figures 1A and 1B associated with the first embodiment of device 10, is received at first housing 26 of the movable diffuser 12. In that case, the pump 24 provides transfer and diffusion functions.
    [000111] Similarly, it will be understood that, in the case of the second embodiment that has been illustrated in figures 2A to 4B, the transfer pump 24 that is received in the second box 28 of the fixed base can also provide a diffusion function, the box 28 of the fixed base is then also equipped with an outlet element (not shown) to allow independent use of the diffuser and the base
    [000112] It will be understood that, in this configuration, the electrical supply means of the diffusion pump of the diffuser 12 comprises a rechargeable accumulator which is capable of being connected by means of the coupling means 30, 32 to the electric power source that allows recharging. the rechargeable accumulator 140 of the base 14.
    [000113] The invention therefore makes it possible to propose, in a very simple way, a packaging device for a liquid or semi-liquid product, comprising a diffuser 12, which can be freely placed on or removed from a base 14 for loading.
